C “Ho, every one that lhirsteth, com; ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price ” What a glorious invitation to ev­ ery thirsty soul! It seems that al men would desire full and free sal­ vation. It is the best thing in all the wo.ld, bnt the vast majority of people desire the material things of the world far more than salvation therefore will not go to the foun­ tain of life that they maybe saved. No doubt, however, that the sodl of many a man cries out for the water of life, but they try to satis­ fy it with money, pleasure, amuse­ ment, entertainment, fun, fancy and frolic. A' soul must be thirsty for the water of life before be will realize the need .of it. Then he should not try to satisfy it with anything else but the real. If he trys the false, the counterfeit, which the devil of­ fers, he will be no better off. In fact he will be worse off, because the enemy will endeavor to make him believe he has the',real, and as a consequence he may stop seeking for the genuine. Better watch the codnterfeits and substitutes of the devil. His business is to deceive you. The invitation God gives is to the thirsty soul, and this invitation is to come to the waters. Nothing quenches naturcl thirst like natural water, and nothing quenches and satisfies spiritual thirst like spiri­ tual water. Certainly nothing can save the soul of man but reat -sal vation, and this comes from God. He may try false religions, false doctrines, false creeds, types and shadows, only to wake up to the fact that he is still lost in sin, may­ be when it is too late. God has the real water of life, and it cani-ot be found anywhere else in all the wide world. Heath, en religions, and all mere forms of religion, can never s-ve a lost soul. They are but empty and vain. They can never save the soul from hell and take it to heaven. Never. Only the salvation that God offers can do this. Why do men and na­ tions not see this? Surely they are blind, deaf and dumb to the truth of God, and are deceived by the enemy This glorious invitation is from God ta come to the waters.. Thirs­ ty, soul, do you not hear the invi. tatlon? Do yon not realize your need of salvation? Why do you go on and on in sin and wickedness at the risk of your soul? Why waste your time and talent? Why wreck your life and soul? ,Why stay a- way from God? Why die for the lack of water? Why perish when you can be saved? Whyliveinsin and go to hell, when yon could live for God, and live in godliness, righteousness and holiness, and go to heaven? Do you not act foolish? Not only is the invitation from God to come to the waters, but it' is to come without money. In oth­ er words, salvation cannot be pur­ chased. This means that all class­ es and conditiods of humanity can find salvation. We don’t have to be rich to be saved. In fact we find that the rich are scarcely ever saved because they love their riches more than God, or desire to hold on to them instead of dividing with the poor, .giving to God’s cause, and drinking at the fountain of life. Very few rich people have ever been saved. It is the poor and needy who find their way to the waters. It-is true if a man has money and wealth he cannot hold on to it, be stingy, close and .griping and be saved.- He must be liberal. He must not set his affections on his earthly means. He must give to The Way To Destroy Progress The American people must go without a long list of tLiugs to which they are accustomed, in or­ der that vital materials may be us ed for the war effort. They must pay unprecedented taxes, and on top ot that, invest a substantial share of their -arnings in War Stamps and Bonds. This is part of the price that all are willingly pay­ ing to gain victory in the greatest war in world history. But, while doing this, the American people are entitled to demand that the gov­ ernment itself take its own medi­ cine — and eliminate preventable waste. - The electric power situation is an outstanding case in point. . The drive to socialize the private utlity industry goes on, despite its poten­ tially damaging effect on war pro­ duction. As part of that drive, the advocates of socialism are seek­ ing to obtain tremendous appro­ priations for the construction of pnblictly-owned system which vir­ tually duplicate existing private power systems If that drive suc­ ceeds, it will mean that tens of millions of dollars, hundreds of millions of man-hours of labor, and gigantic quantities of vital and scarce materials will be literally wasted. It is argued that this grand ad. venture in state socialism is essen­ tial to the war effort. But the plain fact is that the effort demands full utilization of all power re­ sources, and the planned destruc­ tion of power developments would be the surest way to create a de vastating power shortage In the tntnre. It takes no economist to fignre out that persecuted industries are not progressive industries. Private powers executives have long urged the pooling of.'all pow. er generating and distribution sys­ tems so that maximum utilization of electricity can be gained at mini­ mum utilization of electricity can be gained at minimum cost in time money, materials and labor. That is the way of common sense and justice—and it is the way to get re­ sults. Hereis a vital matter on which the American people must make, their views felt before Fed- eral socialization of the electric in­ dustry is an established fact. A dangerous start has been made. KEEP ’EM FIRING, WITH IUNKl VICTORY I BUY M U N ITED M ST A T E S SKwarbW bONDS AND I a il STAMPS God’s holy cause, love God su­ premely, set his heart, mind and soul on heavenly things, then go through with Jesus. No man can think more of money and material means than he does of God and be rigbt, neither can he reach heaven in such r. state of heart, mind and sou!. God wants all men to love Him supremely, obey- Him, serve and worship Him honestly and sin­ cerely, and travel in the footprints of Jesns heavenward. Poor soul, come to the -waters'. You may not have a penny in yonr pocket, not own a foot of land, nor own the bouse in which you live, nor know where the next meal is coming from, but Godsays tocome to the waters. You can have the wine and milk of salvation by com ing to God. Then come, cornel Duty Well Performed Space is not available here to give a complete summary of the recommendations made to Govern­ or Broughton by the committee he named to make a full investigation of the State Hospital at Morgan- ton. It must suffice in the main ft note a positive opinion that the com­ mittee has done an honest job and a good one. Recommendations made are spe clfic and based upon the evidence that the committee collected from scores of men and women called be. fore it to give unhampered testi­ mony concerning their abservations. And the committee very humanely gave proper weight to the state­ ments made by men and women who had themselves been patients in the institution. The-investiga­ tors found plenty of other evidence to justify the contentions that pa­ tients are not given adequate cus. todial care, are not provided with properly balanced diets of well pre- pared food, / are not properly se­ gregated for care and custody, and that there have been more instances tha.i there should have been of in­ humane treatment of patients by some placed in the role of care­ takers. Chief blame for this situation is laid upon the state itself, which has given all too little of its funds to this and other so-called hospitals for the care of this mentally ill. There has been official support for the attitude tbat these were merely insane asylums where the afflicted could be walled away from societv on a basis of strictest public econo my from the standpoint of per capi expenditure. And the committee also found that the method of coin, mitting patients is somewhat ar­ chaic aud permits of abuse. It re­ commends that the state take posi­ tive action to correct all of the ills the committee is convinced exist, and starts with specific recommen dations for adequately staffing, this and other hospitals of the same type with qualified, persons' paid living wages. If Governor Broughton succeeds in putting the recommendations of this committee into effect at the earliest possible day his administra. tion will have been an outstanding success, no matter what else may be its accomplishments or short­ comings. It seems apropos to observe tbat Tom Jimison has rendered a ser­ vice to society of value beyond cal­ culation by bringing the situation before the people of North Caro­ lina.—Lexington Dispatch.

Tnfnrs BtfrtmM From The Yellow Jacket There are groups of goofs who think they are generous because they share all their troubles with their neighbors. Scores of New Deal politicians are as ignorant of the principles of Federal economy as an Esquimo is of “Adam’s Bridge.’’ The best advice we have seen by a literary critic concerning a new novel said: “Let everybody buy the book, who can’t read.’’ Wai time isn’t in it with the way a mountain woman’s son rises and sets She says he rises around noon and sets around all day. The new Deal has cut the cuffs off men’s pants, but there’ll be very little change (if any) In men’s pockets this year. We suppose about the only wom­ en who don’t like the short skirts now being worn are those who are either just a little bit () or some­ what) (. One Congressional committee re ports that “nearly every conceiv­ able type of extravagance and waste’’ is found in our present war effort. Leon Henderson wants a huge ap proprlation to employ an army of “snoopers’’ to look into and after your business. How do you like it? The New York Times asks: What’s wrong with a coaltion, Win the War Party? The Republican party is just tbat, Mr. Times, and so who is going to “coalesce?” With the country being called on to give up rubber, rations and ev­ erything else possible to help win the war, there is one class of tight wads who still.stint, but thinkTtbQt don’t. When Old Solomon said “there are ways that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death,” he must have had New Dealers in mind. The churches of the world are teady to unite—just as soon- as all the other churches agree to accept the man-made creeds of those will­ ing to unite'. What this country needs more than anything else is a man at -Washington big enough to stand up and call a halt to the enormous non defense spending of the peo pie’s money. Great numbers of people are in for the surprise of their lives when the returns are in from the elec­ tion this fall. Stick a pin here. Good For 5 Pounds Raleigh — StampB No. 8 of the sugarrationing book will be valid for the purchase of five pounds of sugar any time during the 10 -week period from August 23 through Oc­ tober 31. John K. Simmons, State OPA sugar rationing specialist, an* nounced today. Tbe period thus terminated at tbo end of a calender month, Mr. Sim mons explained, so tbat if found de­ sirable future ration periods may be set to coincide with the calendar month. Good Care of Soil Aids Defense Plans Contour forming, strip cropping and terracing can help in increas­ing yields to meet the needs of foe national food for defense pro­gram, says UndlQr G. Cook, ex­tension soil conservationist at ’ Rutgers university. This is. the time to make- plans for 1813, he reminds formers.“American formers win be asked to produce greater quanti­ties of food than ever before In the history of the country,” Cook reports. “Farmers are foot find­ing out, by means of research and eQierience on their own forms, 1 that conservation practices play a definite part In increasing yields.“This is the time to begin plan- ning the form program for next' season in such a way that record production can be obtained with­out the wasteful practices of the last war;” Seen Along Main Street By The Street Rambler. 000000 Miss Margie Page looking at' ce­ dar chests—Ernest Hunt sitting in comfortable chair on corner of square watching crowd goby—Miss Sallie Hanes shopping In grocery store—Mrs. Arthur Daniel making table cover—“Romeo” Templeton getting ready to leave for Ft.

SEfcViet . t h e SIOBT SO FAB: Because to .and his partner, Cragert need the money to keep Norland Airways In business, Alan Slade agrees to fly a “scientist” named Frayne and Us partner, KarneD, to the Anawotto Hver In search of the trumpeter swan. With the proceeds Crn- 1 « hoys a plane, a Lockheed, which Is stolen. When he returns from the Ana- Wotto Slade starts out to look tor the plane. He has three dues, one ot which appears to have lead up a blind alley. Slade thooght the missing plane had some connection with Frayne, but when he returned to where he left the swan-hunter there was no trace of the plane, and Frayne appeared to be hunting swans. The second clue Is the story of Umanakt the eskimo, about a “ghost" plane that is supposed to come from Echo Harbor. The third clue Is Slade’s hunch that if he finds a flyer named Slim Tumstead he will find the plane. Tnmsteadt who knows about the Lockheed and about Frayne, has disappeared. Now Slade, Umanakl and Slade's old prospector friends, Zeke and Minty, are all ont IooklnE tor the plane. Slade has ]ust learned that his tanch was sound. Tum- stead is with Frayne, and- they have a plane somewhere. Now continue with the story. CHAPTER XlII *‘0n the contrary,” retorted the elder man, “you will sail away quite comfortably on the Kovalevka when she takes out her cargo. You will be carried safe and sound to Vladi­ vostok, with money enough, remem­ ber, to give you three years of trav­ el in Europe and all the vodka your heart may desire.” Tumstead seemed to be consider­ ing this. “But why doesn’t your Kovalevka show up?” he questioned. “She will come,” was the precise- noted answer, “when we are ready for her. Ice conditions have not been of the best. And we, too, have been a little slow in getting our shipment in shape.” “So damned slow,” Tumstead re­ torted, “your stuff won’t be any use to you.. While you’re combing the icicles out of your hair the war’ll be over.” 1 “Silence,” commanded the steeli­ er voice. “The men of my race are taught to do what they are com­ manded to do.” "And some of it,” retorted the other, “I’d call uncommonly dirty work.” “It is not for you to question the nature of my work.” Tumstead’s laugh was harsh. “No, Fm merely a flyer,” he ac­ ceded. “But I’m not the kind who can keep a ship going without gas.” It was the older man’s turn to stand thoughtful. “That is a problem,” he finally said, “which we must in some way solve.” Tumstead’s repeated laugh was edged with bitterness. “I’ve gathered in everything that’s lying round loose between here and the Pole," he protested. "And the next pinch may put us all in the dog-house.” “I think not,” said the other. “And we have a problem more immi­ nent.” “What: problem?” “Those snoopers which you spoke of. A means must be found to dis­ courage them.” The speaker’s glance circled about in the uncer­ tain light that surrounded him. “They may be closer than we imag­ ine.” As Frayne disappeared within the tent Tumstead groped about for his fallen cup and reached once more for the coffeepot Slade, watching him, backed quietly away through the underbrush. But his retreat was a brief one. He worked his way down the hollow between the hills and slowly ascended the opposing slope. Then, seeking what cover he could find, he circled back to­ ward the lake front. He stopped, from time to time, to listen and look. But nothing, as he went, came between him and the object of his advance. That objective was the shadowy tangle of spruce trees at the water’s edge. He noticed, as he drew near­ er, how a rough ramp of spruce logs had been built out from the hillside. It was so plainly a landing stage, to make easier the passing of heavy freight into a plane cabin, that no shock of surprise touched Slade Vihen he peered under the matted treetops. For, standing there in the shadows, he saw the stolen Lockheed. He climbed to the rough-timbered ramp and advanced to where two filled ore bags stood together at its outer edge. He stooped over one of the bags, intent on determining its contents. Be failed to see the bare-shoul­ dered and burly figure Uiat emerged from the tree shadows behind him and quietly reached for a spruce bole as long as the long bare arm that wielded it. He failed to hear any movement as the newcomer crept forward, as silent as a shadow,- and brought the spruce bole down on the stooping flyer’s head. Slade went down like a clouted rabbit. Slade, as consciousness slowly re­ turned to him, found it no easy mat­ ter to orient hiinself. His head throbbed and his body seemed cramped into quivering helplessness. Then the singing in his ears and the quivering of his frame merged into the throb and drone of a motor. He awakened to the i fact that he 'm HJFbV He failed to see the hare-shouldered and from the tree shadows. burly figure, that emerged was in a plane, and that plane was in flight. He thought, at first, that his bod­ ily helplessness was due to being so tightly wedged in between soiled ore bags and the pilot’s seat. But it was due, he found after an effort or two to move, to the fact that both his hands and feet were tied. Memory came back to him as he lay back trying to figure out the reason for all this. The final mists eddied away as he looked up and saw that the man at the controls was Tumstead. Slade made no ef­ fort to speak. Instead, he quietly tugged and twisted, in the hope ot freeing himself. But his struggles were without result. The plane’s pilot, however, must have become conscious of them, for his smile was sardonic as he glanced back over a shrugging shoulder. “Coming round?” he nonchalant­ ly called out. “What does this mean?” demand­ ed Slade. Tumstead flew on for a moment or two of silence. “It means you’re lucky to be alive,” he finally announced. “That bullhead who knocked you out went back for his Luger. He was all set to give you the works.” Slade seemed to be giving thought to that statement. "What are you going to do with me?” he asked. “That,” retorted Tumstead, “is what I’m trying to figure out. The easiest way, of course, would be to drop you overboard. And that’s where you'd go, all right, if we both weren’t flyers.” “Then as one flyer to another," Slade asked, “why did you steal this plane?” Tumstead’s reply to that was a snort of laughter. "That’s my own affair,” be said. “And you should have known better than nose in on it.” "You’re flying for Frayne,” said his prisoner. > “Can you suggest anything bet­ ter?” SIade considered that question. “Yes,” he answered, “I know something better.” "What?” *‘To head back to Waterways with this Lockheed, while there’s still a chance of saving your scalp.” Tumstead’s laugh was hard and reckless. “Not on your life,” he proclaimed. “It’s your scalp you need to worry about. And it’s going to be some time before you get back to Water­ ways.” “Why do you say that?” Tumstead’s glance went over the terrain beneath his floats. “Because, a little farther on, I’m going to drop you where you’ll stay anchored for a considerable stretch of time,” he said. Slade’s response to that was to struggle against the cords constrict­ ing his wrists and ankles. But those struggles, he still found, were use­ less. “Are we over the Anawotto?” questioned Slade, embittered by the thought of his helplessness. “We are,” answered Tumstead. “Apd it’s sure empty country,” Slade’s'trained ear told him, a minute later, that they were drop­ ping lower. But from‘ where he lay he could see nothing of the outside world. He concluded, from.the length of time that Tumstead takied along the surface, that the waterway on which they had landed was by no means a small one. He could hear the grating of the pontoons on a gravel bar. I “AU out,” cried Tumstead. He half-swung and half-tossed his prisoner ashore, wher$ with a still deeper sense of helplessness Slade tumbled full length along the peb­ bled slope. There, after taking a shuddering breath or two, he writhed and twisted about until he was able , to fight his way back to a sit­ ting posture. “So you’re going to leave me here?” he said. "I am,” said Tumstead. "And I can’t waste time on talk.” . "But why are you doing this?" ,persisted Slade. “Because you got too ambitious." SIade watched the .plane being warped around in the shallows. A surge of desolation swept over him as he glanced about at the ice-scored and barren-ridged island surrounded by its lonely reaches of open water. That island, he saw, had little to offer him. Any scrub timber that grew between its ridges, he real­ ized, would be too small for the making of a raft. And even with a raft to deliver him from that watery prison, he further realized as he stared about at the distant blue- hazed horizon, he would face a wil­ derness quite empty of life. “I won’t get away,” he said, “and you know it.” Tumstead’s laugh was defensively gruff. “Let’s hope for the best,” he said as he turned back to his cabin. He emerged, a moment later, with a sheath-knife in an old and battered holster. But as the other man un­ sheathed the knife Slade saw that the blade wa? keen-edged and long. His eye remained on Tumstead as he stepped closer, the knife -in his hand. The quick look of apprehen­ sion that came from his captive caused Tumstead’s dark face to crease with a smile. “I’m not- that yellow," the latter announced as he stooped and cut the cords that bound Slade’s wrists together. He was about to do the same with the cords that bound the ankles. But on second thought he drew back and replaced the knife, in its sheath. This, after a moment’s hesitation, he tossed a few paces farther up the shore slope, discreet­ ly out of reach. Then as Slade sat trying to work life back into his benumbed, hands the older man cool­ ly explored the other’s pockets. From them he extracted a lighter and a package of cigarettes. A cynic ^mile played about his lips as he touched the little flame to a cigarette end and tossed the lighter back to its. owner. “You may need that,” he ob­ served. “But seeing I’ve been out of fags for over a week I’ll keep the smokes.” “So that’s all the chance you give me,” said Slade, watching him as he luxuriously inhaled. _ “It’s about all I can afford,” Tum­ stead said as he swung about and glanced down at his fellow-flyer. No look of commiseration softened the older man’s face. But for ja moment a frown of meditation wrinkled his forehead, a frown followed by a small shoulder movement of dis­ missal. ' “Happy landing,” was his curtly ironic exclamation as he turned away and climbed aboard his ship. The man on the beach waited for the roar of the motor. But that familiar crescendo of sound failed to greet him. What he heard, in­ stead, was Tumstead’s cynically in­ different voice calling down to him. At the same time a package was tossed ashore. “That’s a pound of German army chocolate,” Tumstead announced as he tossed still another object toward the motionless figure on the shore slope. “And here’s a can of bully* beef.” He shrugged when no word of gratitude came from that still mo­ tionless figure. “And here's something for youi cigarettes,” was Tumstead’s last curt call as he threw overboard an empty tobacco-tin which struck Slade on the shoulder and came to a rest between bis throbbing knees. Siade sat watching the plane as it taxied across the gray-blue water and rose in the air. He continued to watch as it headed northward over the blue-misted ridges and, fad­ ed away along the empty skyline. He sat without moving until Uie ache in his tightly bound ankles re­ minded him of other things. ■ Then he looked about for the sheath-knife.' He gave a gulp of gratitude when he saw it lying there, within ten paces of him. It took him some time to worm his way to the knife. But a little of the listlessness went out of his face as his fingers closed about the heavy haft He lost no time in sawing through the cords and freeing his feet. When he attempted to stand up, however, he discovered that his. benumbec legs, were unable to support him. Ht had • to sit there, for several min utes, waiting for feeling to com* back to them. (TO BE CONTINUED) iE^SCREE MO By VIRGINIA VALE Btieased by Westera Newspaper Union* NOW that Vera Zorina has been removed from the role of “Maria” in “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” and Ingrid Berg­ man has been assigned to it, a lot of people are much happier. The role seems made for Miss Bergm&i. The change wasn’t made without a struggle; extra tests were made after the first few days’ W orkj but finally out came the dancer. Paramount announces that this did not in any way impair the star’s career, and put Somerset Maugham’s “The Hour Before Dawn” into preparation for her. Metro’s talking about opening "Seven Sisters” simultaneously In America’s seven most roman­ tic cities; if yon think yours is one of them, they ask you to send in statistics! Of course, Savannah, Charleston and New Orleans ought to be on the list. Bnt let’s hope that they won’t ignore smaller towns when they make their decision, the ones that-are really representative of modern American life. When Katharine Hepburn made her first picture, “A Bill of Divorce­ ment,” Adelyn Doyle was her stand- in. When Adelyn married, her sis­ ter Patricia took over the job. Pat KATHARINE HEPBURN married, and Miss Hepburn recently began “Keeper of the Flame” with Katharine Doyle as stand-in. There are two more Doyle sisters, so it looks as if the supply would last as long as the star’s in the movie busi­ ness. Remember David Niven? Nigel B ruce,. working in “Journey for Margaret,” had a letter from him saying that he’s, now a major in England’s armed forces. And Rob­ ert Montgomery has been promoted by Uncle Sam’s navy from com­ mander to squadron commander. —*— Alice Faye will return to the screen soon after more than six months’ absence, to do a musical picture called “Hello, Frisco, Hel­ lo.” It’s another of those costume pictures—she must be getting sort of tired of them—with a story laid in 1900. When Connie' Boswell sings “He Wears a Pair of Silver Wings” it’s more than just a song to her. It’s a salute to her young brother-in- law, Ben Leedy, a flier-to-be sta­ tioned at Mitchd Field. If you’ve seen her work you’ll recall him, rushing out of the wings to lift her into her wheel chair, hurrying out again to take her off stage. She sings it as often as she can on the Friday “Caravan” show. The kitten, “Zero,” heard fre­ quently on “Those We Love” broad­ casts, is played by that very ver­ satile actress, Virginia Sale. She also portrays the principal role of "Martha” in the drama series. You’ve seen her in pictures. For weeks Phil Baker had USO headquarters in New York search­ ing for service men named B aker- wanted them for his anniversary and birthday broadcast of August 23, when only persons named Baker could take 'part in “Take It Or Leave It.” Celebrities who qualified were numerous enough, starting with Bonnie, Benny, Kenny and Belle. But the program was in­ complete without men in uniform. June Havoc caught the mumps from her young daughter, April, and promptly exposed the entire company of “My Sister Fileen'* to them; hadn’t the faintest idea she had them. She says she. looked as if she were wearing a small balloon for a necktie.

If we are not mis taken it was a few leaders of the New Deal that nominated Mr. Roosevelt two years ago, and de­ feated James Farley, and not the great majority of the Democrats throughout the country.

I Dear Mr. Stroud:—I thought I j would write you a few lines to let you know I am still thinking of my visit home. I certainly hope you and all tny friends in Davie are en. joying the best of health and pros­ perity. I have been at Camp Pick, ett, Va., for three months, and am still it) the same company and re­ giment. I have been on several different army posts and Camp Pickett is the best place I have been. It seems more like N.orth Carolina. There are three or four of us from Mocksville In the same regiment. I think we are lucky to be in the same camp. I have been in the army long e nough now to oecome accustomed to the routine of army life. Every Amertean boy should be proud to fight in order to preserve our great United States. We are fighting for the future security and freedom of our relatives and loved ones. I would like to have The Davie Record. We got The Record when I was at home. I usually read ev. erything in it. I will soon be 23 years old, and I have been reading The Davie Record about 12 or 15 years. I will close, wishing you and my other friends the best of luck. Your friend, Pvt. ERNEST C. CARTER.

America Chief Interest of This Prolific Writer 'T 'H E last time we saw Waldo -*■ Frank was in the summer of 1939, on our terrace in the country. It was a month or two before the war start­ ed and Mr. Frank was deeply trou­ bled. It was a dead-end conversation, every way we turned. War was coming—of that Mr. Frank felt sure. We would be pulled in, and we wouldn’t be ready, either with arms or under­ standing. - The mood of the. conversation is more clearly recalled than just what Mr. Frank said. However, we do remember that he. was sad because continental Ameripa had not shaken loose from a dying Mediterranean civilization and built a proud and safe and cohesive civilization of its own. A short, stocky man, with a loose tweed suit and a neat black mous­ tache, he moved down a trail in the dusk to a dark cave of inter­ locking forest trees. The dark trail led to Buenos Aires where he lies today, a casualty of a war of ideas which he has been waging for more than 20 years. Six Fascist thugs beat him with the butt of a revolver, after the Axis • inclined Argentinian government bad found him per­ sona non grata. His book, "Our America,” pub­ lished in 1919, was both an exalted declaration of faith and a disquiet­ ing appraisal of our complacent and slovenly failure to realize what the gods had bestowed on us, and to measure up to this endowment. In this and many later books and mag­ azine articles, he preached a some­ what mystic philosophy of “The Whole,” with such earnest faith and plodding persistence that it is not surprising that he carried his chal­ lenge to ffie dangerous political front of Argentina. During the decades in which he wrote nearly 40 books—he is one of the most prolific of American writ­ ers—Mr. Frank was profoundly in­ terested in South America, in his conviction that North and South were interdependent, in their cul­ tural and economic destiny. When he first was in Argentina in 1929, the president provided him an air­ plane for his tour of the country. It was in that year that be. visited the principal cities of South Amer­ ica, on a lecture tour, appealing for continental solidarity.

Three things to guard against are human marauders, small but de­ structive animals, and fire. Fire protection should consist of clear­ ing the ground of underbrush and rubbish for a space arbund the cabin many feet wide, and if the cabin is on posts, clearing everything burnable out from underneath. Doors and windows should be heav­ ily shuttered. AU openings by which squirrels, chipmunks and field mice could get in should be closed, and one way to do this is to stretch wire insect screening around the house outside at the level of the floor. The top of the chimney should also be closed, which can be done with a wood box large enough to fit over it and heavy enough to be windproof. Even with these precau­ tions, small animals may get in. Mattresses and bedding can be pro­ tected against them by hanging over heavy wires, stretched the length of the cabin, and out of contact with anything that might give access to them. As a final touch, several pounds of moth balls should be scat­ tered in the rooms and on all furni­ ture. This will be a deterrent to in­ sects as weU as smaU animals. Bot­ tles containing freezable liquids should be emptied. If a cabin has a pump or any system of water piping, these should be drained and left empty. Metals that might rust or tarnish, such as the cooking stove, should be coated with grease. Don’t leave your dog or cat behind! Noisy Walls Question: My upper floor was re­ cently modeled into an apartment, and another bedroom intended to be strictly separated from the apart­ ment. The dividing wall was packed with rock wool for noise insulation. It had no effect. How can the wall be made sound-proof? Answer: The sound is traveling through the wall by way of the studs; not through the hollows be­ tween the studs. For the wall to be entirely sound-proof, it should have been made in such a way that the two faces would not have been joined by anything solid. Without rebuilding the wall, the next best thing to do is to sheathe each side of the wall with stiff insulating boards, furred out from the wall by an inch or so. For surest re­ sults, the furring strips should not be nailed through the plaster to the studs, for nails would conduct sound; the furring strips should be attached to the plaster by some form of cement. Keeping Basement Clean Question: I have moved into an old brownstone house with a large basement, and a coal-burning fur­ nace. What are some of the things I can do in cleaning the basement and keeping it clean and In handling ashes? Answer: Careful handling of ashes helps keep the basement clean.' Aft­ er shaking the grates, allow the ashes to cool, wet them down and remove while damp. Cement floors painted with the right type of paint will Jielp keep the cellar clean. Coal Dust for Concrete Question: My coal bin has a dirt floor which of course is covered with coal dust. Could this be used in­ stead of sand for making concrete? Answer: Results would not be good, and I do not advise it. Grains of sand have sharp edges and cor­ ners that give good anchorage to the cement. But coal dust is not so effective. Waterproof Glue Question: I thought that casein glue was waterproof, but find by ex­ perience that it is not. What can I use? Answer: Some varieties of casein glue are absolutely waterproof; much more so than the variety on common sale. Ask your hardware dealer about them. Soil Analysis Question: Where can I get infor­ mation on the meanings of names for different soils, and whether the soils are good or bad for certain crops? Answer: Inquire of your state ag­ ricultural school, or of the depart ment of agriculture of your state. Hair Dye Stain Question: My wash basin is stained with hair dye. Nothing seems to take it out. What can I do? Answer: Sponge the stain with io­ dine, which will change the color. Rinse with clear water and then sponge with household ammonia. Hot Clothes Closet Question: The clothes closet in my apartment is directly over the steam heating stove. I am afraid this may cause damage to the clothes during the coming winter. What would you suggest? Answer: I presume one of the closet walls is also part of the chim­ ney wall and the closet is hot. If so, line the closet , with a double layer of insulating board. The first layer is nailed directly to the walls, then the walls are furred out and another layer of insulating board is nailed on the furring strips.. pttdd/nc Released by Western Newspaper Union* T -vHE wartime muddle on starting -*■ times in major league baseball games has developed into somewhat of a brawl—an inter-league scrap which may have a profound effect upon the future of the game. Clark Griffith, the Old Fox of the Washington Senators, declares that his club will have a hard time exist­ ing next year unless the team is allowed to play week-day games at bight. The matter of starting games or­ dinarily is left to the home club. But it has become of prime impor­ tance to the leagues. The Washing­ ton situation became a m atter of concern to the American league When Griffith announced that, with the exception of Saturday and Sun­ day, the Senators would play their CLARK GRIFFITH daylight games at seven and turn on the lights when they were needed. It looked for a while as though Griffith would be allowed to do just that. But then President Harridge stepped in with the announcement that league rules stipulate that a game started in daylight must be finished in daylight. Twilight Ball Some clubs have been experi­ menting with thq twilight double- header, starting between five and six o’clock. The first game is played in the glbaming, the other is played under lights. Clubs in the National league have had some unhappy experiences with twilight ball. In a game played for the Army Relief fund, the Dodgess and Giants opened hostilities at 6:45 o’clock. Yet they could not finish nine innings before 9:10, at which time the game was called. On top of that came a second twilight game, ending in a I to I deadlock after Brooklyn scored four runs in the IOth inning. The four runs were nullified because of descending darkness. The inning could not be completed. The Giants thoughtfully tossed the remainder of their twilight game schedule in the ash can. They knew the fans weren’t getting value re­ ceived. This was a smart move on the part of Horace Stoneham. Fans were becoming irate. The changes which have come to pass are evidenced by the fact that on one recent day not a single day­ light game was scheduled in either major league or in any of the six principal minor leagues. Two games were twilight affairs, but the rest were played under lights. Baseball’s Problem Both twilight baseball and its cousin, the arc light hybrid, are in­ ferior products. But these are hard times and baseball’s problem is tough to solve. For instance, Griffith isn’t far from wrong when he says he won't 'draw customers in the day­ time next year in Washington. Yet the nation’s capital is in the throes of a boom and should be fully capa­ ble of supporting a baseball team— providing activities are scheduled at a time when spectators have a bit of time to kill. The American league needs the Washington club. In the opinion of this writer, Mr. Griffith’s voice in the wilderness should be heeded. As a somewhat drastic measure, he should be allowed to play the night games he says he needs to remain solvent. Some critics, notably Larry Mac- Phaii of Brooklyn, claim that an overdose of night games will ruin baseball. These critics can back up their contentions with facts, figures and logic. But if night games kill baseball in Washington, then the franchise can be taken somewhere else. Without night baseball, Grif­ fith claims the Senators are definite­ ly on the skids. With it, they have a fighting chance. SPORT SHORTS 61.

EPILEPSY Some years ago I expressed the personal thought that if I had been gifted with the qualities of a re­ search physician, the investigation as to the cause of epilepsy would have been u y first chal­ lenge, after cancer. Despite the fact that it is one of the old­ est known diseases, the actual cause is unknown. We know that too much liquid in the body brings on the attacks in some in­ dividuals. We know that some cases are — ------- We know also that cutting down on starch foods and in­ creasing fat foods is all that is nec­ essary to prevent attacks in some individuals. In addition to file knowledge now possessed by physicians everywhere there are many research physicians still patiently working on the prob­ lem of epilepsy. It might be well to speak of the Harvard Epilepsy commission where the original work of Drs. II. H. Merritt and T. J. Put­ nam on dilantin sodium outlined in the Journal of the American Medi­ cal Association four years ago, is being further investigated and re­ sults reported to physicians every­ where For years, successful treatment of epilepsy has, as outlined above, been (a) cutting down on liquids, (b) cutting down on starch foods, (c) increasing fat foods. The med­ ical treatment has been phenobar- bital or other of the barbital drugs which replaced the bromides of for­ mer years. A new drug in use for the past few years is dilantin sodium, the use of which has been reported by Drs. Merritt and Putnam in Boston, and Dr. C. P. Kimball among the children attending the Detroit board of education’s special school for epileptics. While physicians report still some unpleasant reactions from dilantin sodium and prefer phenobarbital, more and more dilantin sodium is coming into general use to prevent the epileptic convulsions. Until, then, the cause of epilepsy is found, epileptics can, in .most cases, live safely with none of the fears of attacks occurring in public or dangerous situations by following the diet suggestions mentioned above and the use of dilantin sodium or phenobarbital as prescirbed by their physician. * * e Massage Relieves Pain and Stiffness During and immediately following the war of 1914-18, the value of mas­ sage in quieting pain, loosening up stiff joints and muscles, aiding the circulation, helping to move the wastes along the large bowel was so well recognized that schools of mas­ sage, sometimes as a part of a course in physical therapy, were es­ tablished, and, when connected with recognized colleges, diplomas were given. Just before this present war start­ ed massage was not receiving as much attention as it deserved but now there is renewed interest there­ in in actual field operations and even in training camps. Unfortunately it is only at war time that physicians as a whole give any attention to massage; even then it is left' to non-physicians not only to give the actual massage but often to prescribe the type of massage that should be given in any particular case. Thus Dr. Ralph Pemberton, Philadelphia, in his "Handbook of Physical Therapy” states "There is probably no other measure jot equal known value which is so little used and understood by the medical pro* Session as a whole.” At one time it was thought that massage had just the same effect upon the muscles as exercise; in fact was a form of exercise but the benefit derived is .now believed due to another cause. Why is massage so helpful to stiff, tainful joints and muscles’ In the Journal of the American Medical Association, Dr. George Morris Pier- sol, Philadelphia, states that from direct observation on the circulation of the blood in the little blood ves­ sels (capillaries) massage causes an increased rate of blood flow and changes in the vessel walls followed by an increased interchange of sub­ stances between the blood and tis­ sue cells. That is, the blood takes away from Uie tissues the substances causing tiredness, stiffness and pain, and brings to these tissues fresh blood. e • * QUESTION BOX Q.—What is the difference between an oculist and an optometrist?

Fresh-From-the-Vme Grapes Make Clear, Bright Jelly! <See Becipes Below.) Meals—With Zest Does meal after meal slip by mv- ftoticed, eaten only because it does away with hun­ ger? Do your meals pull their punches so to speak—look good, have proper bal­ ance, contrast in texture, etc., but : still seem to lack something vital? A dinner, lunch or breakfast that lacks a sense of completeness is like a ham sandwich without mus­ tard, meat without seasoning, fish' Without a tart sauce, a pie without a flaky crust. The small things that do big thipgs for .menus are the rel­ ishes, pickles* jams and jellies, which.brings me to today’s topic. Rdishes such as pickles, jellies, conserves and preserves can supply that sense of completeness to a meal if you use them with a thought to flavor affinity. For chicken try strawberry or plum jam. Goose calls for spiced peach jam or apple jelly. Orange and cherry jam or relish are tops with bland duck. Spiced grape jam or gooseberry jams are “musts” with beef just as mint or crabapple jelly are musts with lamb. Pair off that golden brown ham with plum jelly or horseradish mixed with grape jelly. Veal needs currant or blackberry jam. If you can’t get quince jelly, try cranberry jelly with pork. liver will be extra good with tomato relish.

Recently a group of prepared cereals have, had their whole grain nutritive values restored or are now made from whole grains so watch labels when doing your buying. The peach crop tills year will be like last year—one of the best, according to present indica­ tions..

Broilers and fryers will be abundant during these next few months, so don’t miss out on good fried chicken or crisply browned and broiled chicken. Young chickens are abundant now be­ cause of increased war poultry production. Canned foods will come in few­ er sizes this fall anil winter in the effort to cut down on use of tin.

The necessity for using to the limit every resource—man power and material—in this time of national crisis should make every American doubly alert to the devastation and loss which has come (and is coming in increasing measure) to us as a result of the sale of intoxicants. This is no time (nor was there ever a time) when “men should put their enemy in their mouths to steal away their brains; that we should with joy, pleasure, revel and applause transform ourselves into beasts! To be now a sensible man, by and by a fool, and presently a beast!” (Shakespeare). Christians—and especially Sunilay school teachers—should use this les­ son to drive home anew the great lesson of moral accountability, of the importance of man’s choice of a way of life, and the certainty of judgment. I. Man Is Morally Responsible (Gen. 13:13; 19:23-25). Life is not just a careless drifting from day to day, from pleasure to pleasure, from sin to sin. Man was created in the likeness and image of God, which means that h e is a personal being, knowing right from wrong and possessing Uie power of choice. Sodom and Gomorrah drew ujpon themselves the judgment of God because of their determination to persist , in . horrible wickedness. What happened , to those cities, ter­ rible as it was, is but a prophecy of even greater judgment to come (Luke 10:10-12). If man chooses to do.right, he may count on all the resources of the omnipotent God to uphold him. But if he chooses to go in the way of sin, he must look forward to the judgment of God. It is' important to remember that n . He Chooses His Own Way of Life (Deut. 32:31-33). Moses contrasts the Rock—Jeho­ vah—in whom his people trusted, and the corrupt standards of their heathen neighbors, of Sodom and Gomorrah; but note it well, each one made his own choice. One greater than Moses, our Lord Himself (Matt. 7:13, 14), spoke of the two ways, and noted with sad­ ness that many go down the broad road to destruction and but few walk in the narrow way of life. It is a vital m atter that we teach our boys and girls the great and noble spiritual standards of Christi­ anity; bring into their lives the pow­ er of God through faith in Oirist that they may choose well for them­ selves and be able to lead a bewil­ dered war-shocked world in the right way. The need ot humanity is great now, but it will be even greater in a post-war world of broken homes, broken lives and broken hearts. We must be ready to minister in the name of Christ. III. Neglect and Ignorance Are No Excose (Amos 6:1-7). Surprise attack is always doubly effective. “Remember Pearl Har­ bor.” -Yes, and remember man’s de­ feat in spiritual things. Satan would like to lull us to sleep with the assurance that all is well. The ,heart of man is prone to cher­ ish optimistic thoughts; to magnify that which encourages him to take his ease; to keep away the fear of reality by sweet music, good food, and flowing bowl ot wine. The people of Amos’ day, to whom this message was given, had come to the point where prosperity had made them at ease, when they should have been actively alert; foolishly serene, when they should have been vigilant and ready for battle. Who can say: that Qte same is not in all too large a measure true of the people of our own beloved Amer­ ica. Many .elements enter into that dangerous situation, but not the least of them is our increasing use of in­ toxicants. It may shodc some to learn that the per capita use of al­ coholic beverages has increased greatly throughout the country. The appalling fact is that the city of Washington, D. C., which should in these days set an example of so­ briety and sanity, has led the na­ tion in Qie increase of the use of strong drink. That way is the way of captivity (v. 7) unless we repent—and -that right soon. America needs to awak­ en to the. dangers which threaten its precious liberty—and, we repeat, the Jiquor question is not the least of tHese problems. We must win a victory over it soon, or we may find that it has. won the victory over us —which may God in His mercy forbid! ON TH!

Do Yon Practice These Things? Rev. Walter E. Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. An unknown writer has collected the following searching statements as practices intended to kill off the best preacher that ever lived. Read slowly and with meditation, and stop to repent when you are locat­ ed, or find that you are guilty. Don’t attend prayer meeting. Don't attend the Sunday evening service. Only hear him preach when con venient. Habitually come into church late. Stay away from the church on account of a little head ache, or because you “feel bad,’ or on the slightest pretext. Rush out as soon as the service ends. Complain of the long service. Act cold to show your dignity. Never call at the parsonage. Don't give the preacher anything to live on, nor help to support his family. Never thank the parson for his ser vices. Neyet appraciate Us ef. forts. Don’t offer to help meet ex­ penses and carry on the work of the church. Tell him what great sermons you hear elsewhere. Tell Um repeatedly of your fine former pastor. Criticize him to strangers and outsiders. Criticize him and his sermons before your child. Don’t make him welcome when he calls. Criticize him for not calling. Criticize his wife tor not mixing in everything. Tell folks his wife is trying to run everything. Don’t take your Sunday company to the church. Don’t let him know when you are sick, and then find fault of Um for not visiting yon—Selected. DON’T QUIT When things go wrong as they sometimes will. And the road you’re trudging seems uphill, When the funds are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit. Rest if you must—bnt never quit Life is queer with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about, When he might have won bad he stuck it out; Don’t give up though the pace seems slow— You may succeed with another blow. Success is failure turned inside out. The silver tint of the clouds no doubt. And yon never can tell how dose you are; It may be near when it seems afar; So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit— It's when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit. —Selected. THE PROPELLER A mighty airplane weighing to .s and loaded with tons of weight, will cleave tbe clouds and rise on above them, and travel at a mighty rate of speed toward some far des­ tination and reach it in due time, while a little gravel weighing only a fraction of an ounce thrown into the air will fall back to earth again. So it is with many a life. The propeller pulls the great airplane, but the gravel has no propeller. God is the propeller of the Chris, tian’s life, and He Iiftshim up,.up, up into manhood, honesty, tnitb, nobility, godliness, righteousness rnd holiness; lifts him up above the beggerly things of earth and even, tually crowns him in heaven, tbe home of the Christian’s soul. Sin is tbe gravel, but there is nothing in it to lift up, to cause it to fly heavenward, but it always travels In the opposite direction. Tbe life Dewey Has Chance Charlotte Observer. The nomination of Thomas E. Dewey bv the ReDubIlcan conven­ tion of New York as candidate tor governor of the state was onlv a formality but bis public renounce­ ment of any presidential aspirations in 1944 was something else again. But it’s a long time until the sum. mer of 1944 , in a political sense. Dewey could change bis mind by that time or he coutd be drafted by his party. However, there is no disposition here to question his sin­ cerity. It was not apparent from this distance that Wendell Wilkie, who defeated Dewey two vears ago for the presidential nomination, bad much of a hand in the New York State convention, but the platform adopted may bear the earmarks of Wlllkie influence, in pledging un. quallified suoport to the Nation’s war effort, offering no criticism of the Roosevelt foreign policy, but criticising the prosecution of the war on the home front. In line with the platform decla. ration was the assertion by Dewey: “Tbe Republican party will not flinch from the difficult duty .of cri­ ticism which HELPS TO WIN THE WAR. But every moment of every hour of every day, in all measures to win the war, we are supporting and will continue loyally to support OUR COMMANDER- IN-CHIEF.’’ Wilkie himself, had he been in Dewey’s place, would hardly have said less or more on that point. The sentiment is exactly what Will, kie has been expressing in word and action. On the face of tbe situation as of today, Dewey has at least a 50 - 50 chance of election—perhaps even better than that Iu view of the bit* ter Farley-Roosevelt, Bennett-Mead fight in the recent Democraticcam- paign and convention, and in view of the fact that tbe Labor party, whose vote of some 400,000 helped to elect Governor- Lehman, will prove an important factor in the November election. Dewey’s outstanding record as district attorney in New York City and his strength as a contendet for the presidential nomination two years ago make him a strong can* didate. Where Stroud Reunion Will Be Held f t Seems Farther Tourist; “Is it far to the next town?”Native: “Well, it seems farther than it is, hut you’ll find out it ain’t.” Ball-Head Row It was at a musical comedy. “Why are all the men in tbe front rows bald headed?” she asked, "Because they bought their tick, ets from scalpers.” he replied. Good Care of Aids Defense Plans Coatour farming, (trip cropping and terracing can help in increas­ing yields to meet the needs of the national food for defense pro­gram, says Undley G. Cook, ex­tension soil conservationist at Rutgen university. Tliis is the time to make plans for 1943, he reminds termers. . “American termers win be asked to produce greater quanta ties of food thanever before In the history of the country,” Cook reports. “Farmers are test find, ing out, by means of research and experience on their own terms, that conservation practices play a definite part in increasing yields.“This is the time to begin plan­ning the term program ter next season in such a way Oat record production can be obtained with­out the wasteful practices of Ihe last war.”' loaded with the gravels of sin goes down. Sin and the sinner always goes in the opposite of direction of heaven, and that is a hellward course. Sinner, turn to God and let Him propell yon upward.

Tbe feiiow made the mistake of joining with the celebrants in sing­ ing tbe Star Spangled Banner. That’s against the Petrillo rules except un* der such conditions as would assure that the singer would get pay for same, some of which would filter into the till of music’s fuehrer. Anybody who ean master the sing­ ing of the Star Spangled Banner all the way through, doesn’t rate penal* izing, as most of us who proudly make a try at it will readily agree. But when any group or individual steps in and issues a desist order, tc our way of thinking that just about reaches the depths of disloyalty to the flag, and manhandling those re­ sponsible for it should be excused. We can’t consistently send Bill Pel ley to jail for fifteen years for his subversive activities, when that fel­ low Petrillo is allowed to sav when and where and under, what condi* tions one may sing tbe Star Spangled Banner without being fined half a grand for disobedience to the order.

From The Yellow Jacket A Congressman with an “X’g gas card in his pocket, advocating economy in government, is just a bout like it would be for Hiller to proclaim be was a humanitarian. One writer suggests that when the Allies catch Hitler they’ll try him on charges of “crimes against international morality.” We’d try him as the most fiendish murderer this side of tbe portals of hell. Be sure you vote for a Congress­ man who f-vors letting the sugar beet farmers ol the West and tbe sugar cane farmers of the Sontb strut tbeir stuff regardless of hell or high water. The Allied powers may not get the job of reconstructing the uni verse, bnt they are durn sure that Hitler will get the job. , We hear it that the patent sys­ tem was established 150 years ago, and. consequently it must be ont of date today.

V-Mail Service The Post Office ,Department an* nounced today that the V-Mul Ser* vice, inauguratnd on June 15, 1942, is now past, the experimental stage, - with each week showing large in- creases in the number of letters mail­ ed to American soldiers overseas. The War Department has increas* ed its facilities to handle promptly the volume expected in the future. Facilities for photographing and reproducing V-Mail to and from the United States and the British Isles. Australia. India. Hawaii and other points are now in operation. A simi­ lar service is being planned for Ice­ land and other points where the vo­ lume may warrant. Pointing out that V-Mail provides a safe means of communication with members of onr Armed Forces, the Post Office Department gave assur­ ance that the film (upon which the communications are reproduced) are given the most expeditious dispatch available. Because of. th e small space taken up by the rolls of film, they often can be carried on ferry planes or bombers. Every pound of weight which can be saved on air transports overseas, said the Department, means that an equivalent amount of weight aan be allotted vital military material. In recognition of this, and in an effort to insure delivery of mail to as many mm as possible at overseas destinations when space is limited.. . the War and Navy Departments have directed that V-Mail be given priority in dispatcb over all other classes—including air mail—when —when transportation facilities under control of those departments are used. V-Mail letter sheets have been dis> tributed at all post offices; and have been provided all military and naval personnel at overseas points through Armv and Navy post offices and mili* tary channels. Private firms and individuals have also been permitted by tbe Post Of­ fice Department to reproduce tbe letter sheets The sheets also will be available soon to all stores selling stationery. V-Mail Service provides for the use by patrons of a special letter sheet form which is a combination Ietterandenvelopeof uniform dze and design. Tbe patron writes his message, completes the name end address of the addressee and the re­ turn card in the space, provided, folds, seals, and mails the letter in the usual manner. Patrons are warn­ ed that only the^ inner or letter side of V-Mail letters are photographed, and should be careful to show the the complete address of the person to whom the message is sent in the panel provided therefor above the space for the message. Itisprefer able to print the address in large block letters. Enclosures must not be placed in the letters. The War, Navy and Post Office Departments all cooperated in de­ veloping this Service, largely with a view to decreasing the volume of mail to be carried overseas and pro. viding an expeditions service. The public is urged to use it at every opportunity. THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N- C.

P rep are for W eek-Ends Lazy days with first signs of fall in the air, wilted appetites and the whole family ho m e fo r th e week-end are a heavy drain on the homemaker. If she expects to spend any time with her family, Madame House­ wife must scurry around and plan a preparedness campaign which will stock her refrigerator with foods that can be pulled—like the tradi­ tional bunny out of the hat—and still keep her reputation as the “best cook around here.” It’s a mistaken notion that the main dish has to be an elaborate hot and heavy affair that sends the hostess to the head of her table sweltering after hours of prepara­ tion. A much better idea would be to have a cool, tempting Chicken- Ham Mousse such as I’ve planned for you today. Wash the vegetables and store them in the cold compartment and they’re ready to toss together in a few minutes, crisp, and chewy, coat­ ed with a flavorful dressing, in a salad supreme. If the family really has its heart set on “something hot” bring out' some bran muffins, all moist and tasty with blueberries. These take but a short time to bake. Your table should be bright and gay with oranges and yellows, reds, rich browns to add warm notes to the porch supper or lunch—indoors or out. Let your imagination run riot with the dry leaves, bright ber­ ries, sprays from the wayside or fall’s bountiful fruits. Remember, you can do more for your table by arranging Concord grapes tastefully with a few golden pears, blush red apples on rich brown leaves or in well polished pewter, copper or brass vessels than rare, expensive flowers that your family does not know how to appreciate. Then, of course, if you have a few yellow or deep red chrysanthemums in your fall garden, let them fall gracefully in and out among their own leaves in a burnished bowl, and you leave nothing to be desired. Here's the mousse which you can have as a main dish. Make it the night before and it’s already to serve just with unmolding: •Chicken-Ham Mousse. (Serves 6) 3 egg yolks, slightly beaten H teaspoon salt 1*4 cups chicken broth Iy 2 cups ground, cooked chicken IV2 cups ground, cooked ham !4 cup salad dressing I minced scallion M cup whipped cream I package lemon-flavored gelatin Add salt to. egg yolks, then broth.

Lymi Says: Easier Way to Live: One good waly by which to simplify home-1 making is to get rid of trouble­ makers in your household . fur­ nishings as fast as you can. If you have an expensively up­ holstered sofa or chair which re­ quires special cleaning often, make a slip-cover for it out of one of the practical cottons or other washable fabrics which are so numerous in the stores these days. A quick, trip through the household washer now and then will keep it spic-and-span. Whisk it off and let the regular cover­ ing show when special guests are coming, or use the slip-covers day in and day out, for they are so attractive in themselves. When your draperies wear- out, or when you decide to do over a room, look at the beautiful wash fabrics which you can buy for your windows. Make them up with washable linings, these pre­ shrunk, too, of course, and save yourself troublesome cleaning from then on. In time, you can “re-plan” many of your furnish­ ings for practical washing ma­ chine handling.

MOCKS VILLE, N. C. WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEM UEL F. PARTON ConsolidatedFeatuTes.-WNtr Release. . XTEW YORK--In 1924, a hand- some .young English society girl, daughter of an admiral, living in the suburbs of London, turned Out OfArhtoi1She ^ f es f3 E xpoundaV irtueof dances. She P overty, H u m ility the failure of England to make' a better life after the war, the “arti­ ficiality” of her. social coterie, , the “sterility” of a machine civilization, had made her customary life intol­ erable and that she was withdraw­ ing, “to find peace within my own soul.” She found jail and exile and jail again the other day, but, as she has always insisted, she also found the peace of mind and spirit which she sought. She is Miss Madeleine Slade, somewhat inaccurately identified in the news as Mohandas K. Gandhi’s secretary; arrested in Bombay with Gandhi and others in the govern­ ment’s drive against the civil dis­ obedience campaign. As well as secretary, she has been Gandhi’s cook, nurse, disciple, adviser, co- strategist, high priestess of his non­ violence doctrine, and a faithful her­ ald of the mahatma’s “divine mis­ sion.” We talked to her a few moments, in a large company in New York in 1934, when, if we remember correct­ ly, she wab visiting the late Lillian Wald, of the Henry Street settle­ ment. Her coarse robe of sackcloth and her shawl drawn tightly over her head, her olive skin, darkened by the tropical sun, her large, dark, placid eyes under highly arched brows gave her distinctly the look of an Oriental ascetic. She expound­ ed the virtues of poverty and hu­mility. When she took up her clois­ tered life in England, she read !,Romain RoDand’s life of Gandhi. She went to Switzerland, saw RoIIand and told him she be­ lieved her pathway to peace lay in India. He put her in touch with the mahatma, but she was required to serve a year's no­ vitiate before joining him. Ris­ ing at five o’clock, she pursued an unvarying routine of spinning and other handicraft, of set periods of contemplation and of intensive study of ancient east Indian religion, poetry and •philosophy—all this with a rigid regime of diet and practice of physical posture and proper .breathing. At the end of the year, she went to India, was received by Gandhi and admitted to the Ashram, his school for advanced novitiates of his W as Gratified H er D isinheritance; late Admiral S h e H a d Urged it |l r ,Esm°n'* * Slade, had vehement^ opposed her spiritual adventure. She had word from Eng­ land that he had said she would be disinherited. She wrote her parents, insisting that by no means should she be mentioned in their wills, as “non-possession” was one of the first tenets of her religion. A consid­ erable fortune was distributed in the two wills, but in neither one of them was she mentioned—to her greai gratification, she said later. Her Indian name is Mira, that ol an ancient east Indian princess. The people call , her Mirabel, meaning “Lady Mira.” Her working day is now from four o’clock in the morning until ten o’clock at night, including, as well as her various services for the mahatma, a long walk each day, preaching and teach- Ing among the poor. In man) forms and from many texts, she expounds her belief that "in serving?the poor, one serves God •. and that is the only essential happiness.” Marching by the side of. Gandhi in his many civil disobedience cam­ paigns,, she has been arrested sev­ eral times, serving an extended jail sentence in 1932. She accompanied Gandhi to London in 1931, when he participated in the governmental conferences on Indian self rule. Only casually and perhaps accidentally did she meet her old friends of her dancing and dining days. Never, she has definitely said, would she leave her quiet haven of peace for which she has sacrificed so much to attain. r P H E bureau of public relations of ■I the U. S. navy doesn’t specially need a peacemaker, but it Ims one. Capt. Leland P. Lovette, succeeding Adm. Arthur J. Hepburn as director of the bureau, is a skilled specialist in allaying friction and getting on with everybody. While in command oif Hie U. S. Gunboat Pampagna in the Canton (China) region in 1928, he was .caught in a civil war, between the forces of Or. Sun Yat Sen and: the Kwangsi province in­ vaders.

A rm y o f S chool C h ild ren In S te p W ith W a rE ffo rt Shortage of Teachers Is Most Serious Handicap Of New Academic Year. fective teaching is impossible. Former Teachers Urged to Return. Former teachers are being urged to return to the schoolroom." The ban against married women teach­ ers is being removed in some com­ munities. All of these measures, however, offer only temporary relief, as was proved by the experience of World War I when the supply of teachers became so inadequate that the qual­ ity of education was greatly reduced. It is well worth considering, nev­ ertheless, that efficient instruction depends largely upon the teacher and that fully trained teachers are now, and always will be, hard to get at a salary which will employ a clerical worker who can be pre­ pared for her work in a few weeks. The army of 30,000,000 is entering schools this year that are geared as fully as possible to the war ef­ fort. Whether or not there is a lack of teachers, the organization, ad­ ministration and instructional meth- YUUard E. Givens, Executive Secretary National Education; Association of the United States. The 30,000,000 school children who march back to school this month keep step with another army—an army burdened with the equipage of battle, whose units march in Australia, Ulster, South Carolina,,Dutch Harbor, Colorado, Midway. Both armies are en­ listed in the same “total war,” both have the same objective— victory. This is to be a story of the army that is answering the scboolbell, of the rebuffs it faces, of©- its part in the fight. The school army is not as large this autumn as it usually is; some of those who would have marched with it are in the other army, or stand beside as­ sembly lines, or pore over drafting boards, or are busy in laboratories. The high school, especially, will have fewer students, fewer teach?, ers; for the teachers, too, have gone to the fighting fronts, to the factories. 100,000 Fewer Teachers. The most serious handicap which Uie schools face due to the war is the loss of teachers. It is estimated that up to 100,000 of them, a tenth of the total number, are not in their school­ rooms this fall. Many of the men teachers have joined the colors. Newly created auxiliary forces will take many of the women teachers, too. Many of those still with their school classes find that their incomes as teachers are not within reaching distance of the grocery basket. A teacher whose salary is $800 a year—the average salary paid to the teachers pf a large midwestern state—ac­ cepts a war industry job that may net him three times as much money. He may not wish to leave his pro­ fession but he and his family must eat. There are many thousands of teachers whose salaries are not $800 a year, but $400 or $500 a year. A teacher who Receives $500 a year will look longingly at a position in a government office paying $1,600 a year. She is quite likely to be quali­ fied for it and quite likely to take it. The shortage of teachers is nat­ urally the most serious where the salary schedules are lowest, as in a southern state where the state average last year was $559 for all teachers and school officers, but there is a trek from schoolroom to factory all over the nation. The most alarming phase of the teacher shortage is that it is great­ est in the school subject areas that are most vital to the ’ war -effort. Teachers Of physics, chemistry, mathematics, manual arts and cer­ tain of the biological sciences are in great demand in war industries and laboratories. When they leave the classroom for such work, they cease to train the thousands of stu­ dents of mathematics and the sci­ ences who are so urgently needed by the armed forces. Between three and four million school children this fall will, there­ fore, find the school door closed when they arrive, or their educa­ tional opportunity considerably cur­ tailed. Measures are being taken to minimize, as far as possible, the ill effect of the teacher shortage. Where students who have lost teach­ ers are in the same school with those who still have teachers, classes are combined. This is usu­ ally not possible in rural areas where it may be many miles from a school ‘ without a teacher to a school which has one. Even where classes are combined, they often be­ come so large and unwieldy that ef- Effective Remedy Only one remedy has much promise of being continuously effective. Teachers must be paid well enough to enable them to remain at teaching. This is impossible in some states unless the federal government partici­ pates in financial support of schools. Educators and friends of the schools are trying des­ perately to secure such aid. That, however, is another story. ods employed will be adapted, with­ in the limits of available staff , and facilities, to war needs. In many communities the stu­ dents of 1942-43 will find a whole new division of education—the nursery school. TheM an Power commission of the federal gov­ ernment is thinking in terms of woman power as well as man power. It asks for 3,000,000 ad­ ditional women in the war indus­ tries by January I, 1943. A . large percentage of them will be married women who" have young children. The nursery school is being established to take care of these children while their mothers are in the fac­ tories and offices. The nursery school is already a fixed educational level in many of the better school systems, and the necessities of war will likely in­ crease the scope and efficiency of learning in the earlier years of childhood. ‘Speed Up’ School Army? The school army will face the de­ mand for speed made in every field of preparation for this war. The United Nations have until recent­ ly found themselves everywhere equipped too late with too little. Consequently the cry, “Hurry, hur- ryl” It is aimed at the assembly lines, the cantonments, and field op­ erations. The urge.has not missed the schools. Batttes are fought by men who use machines; therefore Fortunately, many high schools throughout the nation had wen de­ veloped technical courses h r their curriculum before United States en­ tered the war.

Direct War Work Enlists Student Aid The boys and girls who constitute our school army this year will not only find their geography and math­ ematics and history and Science ad­ justed to present needs, they will devote a great deal of time to direct war work. They will assist in the sale of war stamps and bonds, sal­ vage for war purposes a great part of the metal and rubber and paper and fats that the American home supplies to the war factories. They will sew for the Red Cross gnd aid the nursing staffs of many hospitals. In their school organizations as well as in their classes they will try to understand the war, to maintain morale on the part of themselves and others, to prepare for their part in the peace that is the supreme objective of all free peoples of the world. Not a day will pass this year without reminding the student of his duties as a citizen, without putting him actively to work in the machinery of democracy at war.

This young lady, intently studying an object through a high- powered microscope, will be well prepared to take one of the thou­ sands of jobs which will be open to her when she leavqs high school. “hurry the preparation of men” is a logical demand. It has ; been pro­ posed 'thait high schools continue during the' summer, on Saturdays and holidays, that the school terms be reduced in length in order to give those who will soon be under arms as much education as possible. In general, educators have strong­ ly opposed universal acceleration of high school pupils. - - The attitude of the Wartime . commission of the United States Office of Education may be tak­ en as typical. Its recent report points out that hastening the progress of students through . school will enable them to “go into defense jobs, defense train­ ing classes, non-defense jobs to replace persons who have left for defense jobs, or into the armed forces . . . or to enter college earlier.” These pur­ poses are commendable, thinks the commission, but it rules against general acceleration in favor of stepping up the rate of progress only for pupils who are physically and intellectually able to speed up with profit to the war effort and no damage to the pupils themselves. Because this opinion is so widely held by educators, there is little likelihood that the school year 1942- 43 will be shorter than the years preceding it. Another policy will be followed by colleges and higher in­ stitutions where the maturity of stu­ dents and the exigencies of war make acceleration feasible and prof­ itable. Different Courses Emphasized. The students who are entering school this month will find some out­ standing shifts of emphasis in the courses of study since September, 1941. These do not represent radi­ cal changes. Only a few of these changes can be offered by way of illustration. Geography, is an excellent subject with which to begin since, unlike current events and history, it is usually thought of as not changing much from day to day.- The continents and oceans, the mountains and rivers are more or less constant ■ in. size and position. These physical facts, however, are not of great importance except as they affect the lives of men. The geography textbook,’therefore, which includes a chapter on the rubber plantations of Sumatra and the Malay peninsula, is due for. some revision. War has considerably .al­ tered the political status of great portions of the map, world com­ merce has found new trade routes, and trade itself is heavily in com­ modities little sought a few years ago. Methods of travel a re , chang­ ing the Character of the maps Which today’s students will use. Aviation has made the “flat map” or Mer­ cator projection of secondary impor­ tance'. The globe is taking its place. Those of us who visualize Japan due west of the United . States find it difficult to realize that airplanes on their shortest route from Tokyo to the Panama canal would first strike. the United States somewhere on the Canadian border. The Need for Mathematics. . Mathematics, .another study that is often thought of as fixed in nature since the same two numbers always add up to the same total, Will see its change also. For many years the schools have been adjusting' arithmetic to the daily needs-of a people at peace. The textbook prob­ lems, therefore, have had to do with matters like life insurance, income, taxes, budget making, home man­ agement and bookkeeping. Sudden­ ly there comes a demand for «mi in the, use of the mathematics ^need­ ed by the bombardier and gunner. The reason for the lack of these skills is the same reason Whieh prompted our government to sell scrap iron and gasoline to Japan,' We ' were a peaceful people' 'and., hoped to remain so. The mathematics of naviga­ tion and ballistics, the chemis­ try of the munitions worker, the physics of the military engineer will most certainly find their way into school and college cur­ riculum! and will stay there un­ til the minds and hearts of men are,set once miore on the arts of peace.

This is not a Democratic or Re­ publican war. It is going to take both Democrats and Republicansto defeat tbe Axis powers. Politics should be left out of the war. Many Davie farmers, think the government made a mistake I n freezing the price of leaf tobacco. We wonder if this freezing will ap­ ply to the price of chewing smoking tobacco, cigars and cigarettes Davie county bas hundreds of young men in the army, navy and marines. These boys are fighting, or getting ready to fight for us, so that we can continue to enjoy liber, ty and freedom. They are scatter, ed throughout this and foreign countries. These young men like to get the old home county paper. We have many of their names on our subscription books. We are not charging them the full price of the paper, just enough to pay the cost of mailing and postage.' We want them to get their county paper. They are doing our fighting for us, and we are willing to do what we’ can for them. Some people ate said to be charging tbe soldiers higher prices for what they pur­ chase, than what civilians have to pay. We are trying to do our bit to help win the war, and will con* tinue to do so.

SERVICE THE STORT SO FAR: To keep Nor- land Alrnays In business Alan Slade agrees Io By a so-called scientist named Frayne and bis partner, karnell, to tbe Anawotto river In search of the trum­ peter swan. Witb the proceeds Slade's partner, Crnger, buys a Lockheed plane, which is stolen. When he returns from the Anawotto Slade starts out to recover the plane. In this be is being helped by an eskimo named Umanak and by his old prospector friends, Zeke and Minty. Acting on a hunch Slade has gone to Frayne's camp and has discovered that the missing plane is hidden there. Slim Tumstead, a flyer who has lost his li­ cense for drinking and is IitUe more than an outlaw, has been flying it for Frayne. But when Slade attempts to examine the plane's cargo he is knocked unconscions by EarneU. Tumstead saves him from being killed by Karnell, only to abandon him later on a deserted is- Iaiid because he "knows too much." Tumstead has Just taken off again, after leaving Slade with only a knife, a pound of German army chocolate, a can of "bully" beef and what looks like an empty tin. Mow continue with the story. CHAPTER XIV He placed the knife on the shore slope. Beside it he placed the pound of German chocolate, and beside that again the tin of bully-beef. Aft­ er studying them for a long time he reached for the tobacco tin. This, when he opened it, proved not to be entirely empty. In it, to his surprise, he found half a dozen steel fishhooks. He stared at them for a full min­ ute, remembering how more than one bush pilot had the habit of car­ rying such things in his emergency equipment. They gave a promise of food, in case of a forced landing in a wilderness threaded with water­ ways. Then, with a gasp of apprehen­ sion, he crawled about the slope, carefully retrieving the scattered lengths of cord that had been cut from his wrists and ankles. The best of them were only a few feet in length. But he had proof enough of their strength. And when knot­ ted together they would provide him with a fish line that might land any­ thing from an inconnu to a five- pound whitefish. That gave him the courage to climb the rocky ledge behind him and examine his island. There was growth enough about him, he saw, to make a shelter of some sort, growth enough for firewood and the smoking of fish. And along the west­ erly shore where the slopes ended in aedgy meadows his gaze came to rest on a wide field of bulrushes. That gave him new hope. He was alone in an empty world. But as he stood straight on his lone­ ly ridge of rock he told himself that he hadn’t yet reached the end of his rope. Two embattled and odd-looking figures groped their way northward between the muskegs and the rocky hogbacks that stretched out to the skyline beyond Lake Avikaka. Each man carried a rifle and a cartridge belt that bristled with shells. Each was further burdened down with a blanket roll and a grub bag. Erom the waist of one dangled a belt- ax, from the waist of the other swung a skillet and tea pail. They went on, stoically slapping at black-flies and mosquitoes, until weariness overtook them and a low­ ering sun told them it was time to call it a day. Then they made camp, cooked: their bacon and flapjacks, adjusted their mosquito bars, and rolled up in their worn and smoke- stained four-pointers. When morning came they broke camp and once more hit the trail. They saw the sun climb higher in the heavens and the muskegs be­ come fewer as they advanced into a country of bolder rock ridges with a scattering of tamarack along their southern slopes. They saw the shad­ ows lengthen and the light once more thin out. And once more they made camp, and slept, and pushed on again. “We’re on the proper trail all right,” observed Minty as he mount­ ed a knoll and surveyed the sur­ rounding landscape. “There’s the black-water lake I skirted on my way back.” “There’s been folks here before us,” asserted Zeke, pointing to where scrub spruce had been cut along the hill slope. “From the first crack out o’ the box,” said Minty, “I had a queer feelin’ about that two-eyed swan- hunter. I knew he wasn't edgin’ up into this district of ours for any good.” “Then why’s he here?” “That’s what I’m a-goin’ to find out,” retorted the grizzled old pros­ pector, “before he gits another sneakin’ shot at my carcass.” It was as they were circling cau­ tiously along the westerly arm of the lake that Zeke stopped short on a ridge crest that ended in a deep- water bayou. For moored close in under a cliff there he saw the scarred and sun-bleached wings of a plane. “That’s the Snow-Ball Baby,” was Minty’s sudden exclamation. “That’s Lindy’s old crate all right,” agreed the perplexed Zeke. “But where’s our puddle-jumper?” They still hesitated in their ap­ proach. But curiosity finally over­ came them. When they found no pilot there, after invading its cab­ in, they regarded each other for a mor"i*e of silence. m “If they want to do it Injin style,” said Minty, “it’s okay with me.” “I don’t like the look o’ this,” Zeke finally asserted. “Chances are he’s scoutin’ round on foot,” maintained Minty as he clambered ashore. But Zeke, who remained to assess the cabin’s con­ tents, shook a dubious head. “There’s grub and extra gas in there,” he reported when he re­ joined his companion. “There’s even blankets and fly nets and one o’ them new-fangled air mattresses.” “Then you’ll see him headin’ back here pronto,” Minty persisted. But at the end of an hour’s wait the azure of his optimism was shad­ owed by a cloud or two. “Something’s happened to that boy,” averred Zeke as his old eyes once more swept the silent rock ridges. “Then it’s up to us to roost here and keep an eye on his plane,” was Minty’s suggestion. “I don’t like the idee o’ that ship anchored close in here where any outsider could climb aboard,” said Zeke. “Where she ought to be is out in the middle o’ that lake with a quarter-mile o’ water between her and shore.” “How*d you git her there?” asked Minty, as he studied the plane. “I always had a hankerin’ for know- in’ how to handle one o’ them con­ traptions. And right now that hank­ erin’ is stronger’n ever.” But Zeke had his own ideas about the matter. “I could float her out and anchor her there with a couple o’ rock- slabs tied to her moorin’-lines,” he explained. “Then she’d be where no one could sneak up on her.” “And how’d you git back?” de­ manded Minty. “I’d blow up that air mattress of Lindy’s and paddle ashore. And when our bush hawk shows back he can sail out to her in the same way.” “S’posin’ he don’t show back?” “Then it’s up to us,” said Zeke, “to find out what’s keepin’ him away from a ship he’d never desert of his own free will.” But the shifting of the Snow-BaIl to its new berth, was no easy mat­ ter. And even with the plane safely anchored in mid-lake Zeke’s trou­ bles were not over. The inflated air mattress, from the first, proved a precarious craft. When halfway to shore, in fact, Zeke-Iost his balance and went overboard, with Minty’s anxious eyes watching his struggles as he floundered about and finally resumed his perch on the little raft of rubber. Minty, standing guard on his rock point, knew what would, be needed, and needed at once. He dropped his rifle and lost no time in gathering wood and starting a fire. The flames were roaring by the time the wet and bedraggled Zeke crawled up the shore slope. His teeth were chat­ tering and his language was blas­ phemous. “Quit cussin’,” admonished Min­ ty, “and git out o’ them clothes be­ fore they chill you to the bone.” Zeke’s shirt was dry by the time he-was ready to drink his tea. And his ill temper had departed by tbe time the dignity of clothing was re­ stored to his sinewy old body. “We can't squat round these em­ bers no longer,” he announced. “What we’ve got ’o do is sleuth out them white • skinned Comanches who’re musclin’ in on our domain.” “Lead me to 'em,” said Minty as he shouldered his pack and took up his rifle. But Zeke, at the moment, was busy mounting a near-by ridge. He stood scanning the blue-misted slopes between him and the lower­ ing sun. He squinted long and close­ ly at the wooded crest across a wide valley studded with glacial hardheads. And as he looked he saw a puff of smoke bloom for a moment against the hill-top spruce gloom at the same time a bullet whined over his head. His reaction to that was auto­ matic. He dropped to the far side of the ridge, where he lay shouting for Minty to get under cover. But Min­ ty disregarded that advice. He stood with his rifle at half-arm, studying the wooded crest across die valley. But the whine of a second bullet sent him ducking behind the shelter of a hardhead. “They want fightin’, eh?” he cried as hedeveled his fifle along the stone •top. “Well, they’]] git it a-plenty.” But, after a two-man council of war, they realized that closing in on the enemy was not so simple as it might seem. “If they want to do it Injin style,” said Minfy, “it’s okay with me. There’s no reason why two can’t play at that game.” “But dodgin’ round rock corners ain’t goin’ to find Alan,” Zeke pro­ tested. “And our first job is to git trace o’ that boy.” If they declined to retreat, how­ ever, they made their advance a more circuitous one. When night­ fall came they quartered off at an angle, advancing craftily from rock shadow to rock shadow, their old eyes searching every ridge slope and hollow. But they encountered no sign of life. When weariness overtook them one would sleep for two hours while the other kept watch. “I don’t like-this lull in things," observed Zeke as he blinked about the silent ridges. “Makes me sus­ picion them swan-hunters might be puttin’ something over on us.” “Let ’em try it,” barked Minfy after a look into his cartridge cham­ber. Zeke’s weathered old face re mained troubled. “But while we’re pirootin’ througi these empty pine woods and indulg- in' our personal appetite for Iead- slingin’ they might be back-trackin’ to Alan’s Snow-Ball Baby. And I don’t want ’o see anything happen to that boy’s ship.” “It won’t,” averred Minty, “while I’ve still got a trigger to pull.” “Then my vote,” said Zeke, “goes to gittin’ back to that plane and standin’ watch there until Alan shows up.” Minfy adjusted his blanket roll and tightened his belt. “I reckon you’re right for once,” he conceded. Seated on the barren shore of his sub-arctic island, Alan Slade knew a recurring pang of despair much sharper than any pain in his abused body. His first task, he told himself, was to take -in the circle of 'his world, the only world that remained to him. His steps grew steadier as he mounted the shore slope and worked his way up to one of the bolder ridge crests. From that vantage point he care­ fully studied his island. That island, he found, was not so large as it had first seemed. So far as he could see it was empty of animal life. And this seemed con­ firmed as he explored its irregular shoreline. Along the rockier Siore to the east, where he had hoped to stumble on driftwood, he found noth­ ing beyond a tangle of bleached boles and branches, the best of them little thicker than a caribou-prong. They were useful only as a reserve of firewood. The thought of a fire reminded him that one of his first needs was a shelter of some kind. He knew the north too well to nurse much fear of marauding animals. More than wandering bear or wolf, his enemies there would be the vora­ cious arctic mosquito and the black- fly that left a burning ring of poison about its bite. Under one of the higher crests he' found a rock-jut with an over-hang­ ing lip that , made a shallow cave. The floor of that cave, he saw, he could bed with dried moss and sedge grass. The face of it he could close in with loose rocks and a matrix of scriib-timber branches from the near-by slopes. It would not-only protect him from wind and rain but with a smudge fire going in its en­ trance it would be a defense against mosquitoes and black-flies. It would, for the time being, be his home. To it he carried his beef-tin and his chocolate, his sheath knife and his precious little can of fishooks, to­ gether, with every carefully salvaged foot of the equally precious cord that had been cut from his wrists and ankles. For on those strands of cord, he - remembered, might yet hang, his hope of deliverance. With the evening coolness deepening around him he felt the need of a fire. He regretted not having aa ax.

JOSEPH SOLD INTO SLAVERY LESSON TEXT-Genesis 37:23-38. GOLDEN TEXT—Love envieth not.—I Co­rinthians 13:4, R.V. Does it pay to trust God? Is He really concerned about the affairs of men? Does He know the trials and ffie heartaches of His children? These are the crying questions of today, and they find their answer in God’s dealings with men of the past. The story of Joseph has many interesting and instructive phases, but perhaps the most important just now is the truth of our lesson, “The Lord saith . . . them that honor me I will honor.” ; We first find Joseph, as he learns that I. Jealousy Bears Bitter Fruit (w . 23-30). Joseph was his father’s favorite and was shown that favoritism in many ways, but it was perhaps most fully expressed in the coat of many colors. This was a luxurious long robe with sleeves, indicating that he was a gentleman and not to do or­ dinary work of one who wore the sleeveless, knee-length tunic. His brothers deeply resented this evi­ dence of the father’s favor. The dreams which Joseph rather innocently yet perhaps unwisely told to his brothers and his honest report of their wicked behavior fanned the flame of jealousy into a consuming fire which threatened his Iife; But God, ’ through Joseph’s brother Judah and through the op­ portunity they had to make money out of selling him into slavery, kept him for His own purposes. May we not learn that the darkest hour may be the time of God’s deep interest and directing power. The only way strong men can be devel­ oped is by suffering hardness and trial. “God wants iron saints, and since there is no way of imparting iron to the moral nature than by letting His people suffer, He lets them suffer (Heb. 12:11)” (Meyer). Parents should also learn here the dangers of favoritism among chil­ dren. It is one of the most destruc­ tive of evil influences that can enter a home. It hurts the child who is favored, alienates the other chil­ dren, and it destroys confidence in parents and respect for their author­ ity. Let’s have none of it! H. Deceit Attempts to Conceal Sin (w : 31-35). One of the tragic things about sin is that a wicked act does not stand alone but leads into another sin to cover the first. In the case of Joseph’s brethren, their sin against him was covered by deceit. They lied to the father and maintained that lie for years, even though they saw . that their aged father was brokenhearted. How callous sin makes the heart of a man! Yet the very fact that they lied to cover their sin indicates that they were ashamed to admit that they had fallen so low. James Strahan well says: “Evil never dares to be sincere. It always borrows the col­ ors and wears the garb of inno­ cence. It has a whole lifetime of hard labor in keeping up appear­ ances. Hypocrisy is the tribute which all bad men have to pay to the ideal'of goodness.” HI. God Overrules Evil for Good (v. 36). It was God’s plan that Joseph should come to his greatest useful­ ness in his place-of authority in Egypt, so He directed the sale of the young slave Into the home of Potiphar, a leading officer, of Pharaoh. The story of Joseph’s life in Potiphar’s house is one of unusual interest. Faithfulness to duty, loy­ alty to God and truth led to shifting experiences of imprisonment and of favor, but ultimately he came out into the place of leadership in the government of Egypt. In this place God marvelously blessed and used him.- Since the matter of the relation of men to government is so much before us these days, it will be well to note that Scripture holds a very exalted view of the public servant. Paul says we are to “be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God” (Rom. 13:1). The Bible clearly teaches that every governmental agency and every public servant, from the policeman on the beat to the Presi­ dent in the White House, is only per­ mitted to exercise authority over his fellowmen because God has or­ dained’ that there should be such government. Clear it is that every right-thinking official of state and nation should be humble, teachable, discreet, and wise in the exercise of his power, and God-fearing in the discharge of his responsibility. Our lesson provides unusual op­ portunity for the teaching of proper family relationships, the^ right at­ titude ,toward government, as well as the blessed assurance and con­ fidence which we may have who have intrusted our lives into the hands of God.

AT NINE O’CLOCK on the -Ia night of Tuesday, Septem­ ber I, every theater in the land is expected to stop its program and stage a “Salute to Our Heroes”; it’s planned as. one of the features of the treasury’s billion-dollar war bond and stamp drive. Patri­otic airs will be played as a color guard marches down the aisle, a one-minute speech will be made, the audience will give three cheers and then sing the national anthem. H every movie theater is filled, 11,000 ,- OOO people will participate. Bobby Breen, once famous as a child singing star, who retired from the screen in 1939 at the age of 13, is coming back to it. In Republic’s “Johnny Doughboy” he will play himself, a passe movie star, appear­ ing with Jane Withers and Patrick Brook. During the past year Gihny Simms has been working for RKO, under the usual six-month contract, with options. There’s been no big pub­ licity build-up. But recently she GINNY SIMMS , signed as the singing mistress of ceremonies for the new “Johnny Presents” radio show, starting Sep­ tember 8—immediately she was cast for three important films, and two other studios that wanted to borrow her were refused! — SH— Orson Welles has given us another superb picture; “The Magnificent Ambersons” rates right along with “Citizen Kane.” He makes a story really come to life. And he has done us ail a service in bringing Dolores CosteHo back to the screen. Dorothy Lamour has a brand-new makeup for “White Cargo,” but it sounds like one of those things that one would rather- do without. She wears five successive layers of a fluid foundation that combines cream with powder; each is applied all over her body with a sponge and allowed to dry before the next is applied. Then she’s sprayed with a film containing gold dust! — * — “The War Against Mrs. Hadley’1 has been selected by the Kate Smith radio hour for a nation-wide salute on September 25. It features Ed­ ward Arnold, Fay Bainter, Spring Byington, Richard Ney, Jean Rog­ ers and Van Johnson. Quite a way to launch a picture, as the Kate Smith hour is broadcast over 104 stations, and is said to attract more than 30,000,000 listeners. Susan Hayward can Biank her stars that she’s a good screamer. Few actresses can scream convinc­ ingly, but Susan let out such a good yelp when testing for “Reap the Wild Wind” that C. B. DeMiHe promptly signed her up for the sec­ ond feminine lead. As a result of her performance, those hi the know are predicting stardom for the pret­ ty Httle redhead within a year. — * — Joan Davis can thank broadcast­ ing for furthering her movie career. Though she’s such a clever come­ dienne, her roles just seemed to be getting smaller and smaller. Then Rudy VaHee asked her to guest star on his program a few times, and she was such a hit that he made her a regular. Whereupon the film studios began to wake up to what they’d been missing, and she’s in demand once more. Lesley Woods, who stars in Co­ lumbia’s "Joyce Jordan” every aft­ ernoon, likes to remember when she and Tyrone Power were on the pay­ roll of the Motion Picture Exhibit at the Century of Progress Ehqiosition in 1938. She says they stood around and tried to look like movie stars iand ate ham sandwiches ODDS AND ENDS—JPhen Jaequitine White reported on A e set of "Skyway to Gloiy she was handed a telegram wish­ing her good luck, signed “Unde Frank" —meaning Frank Knox, secretary of Ae navy . . .

Rain Tells the Time We use watches and clocks to tell the time, but in Para, Brazil, they rely on rain to check the hours. It rains so regularly in short, heavy showers that people make appointments “after the third shower,” or “the'fifth show­ er,” and so on. Many countries have weather fads. In parts of China, instead of wearing one thick coat when the weather gets cold, they add thin silk coats. So, instead of saying that the day is chilly, a man will say that it is a “three-coat day,” and if it is very severe, he will probably call it a “seven-coat day.” HEY!

Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. Vou know you have eyes, be­ cause you cr.n see; you know you have ears, because you can hear; yon kuow you have a nose, because you can smell; you know you have a tongue, because you can taste; and you know you have hands, be­ cause you can feel. These are the five senses. But what about your soul? You can’t see it; you can’t hear it; you can't smell it; you can’t taste it; you can’t feel it. However, there is a sense in which the soul reveals itself to us in our senses; and certainly the soul takes four of the five senses with it when it leaves this world, if not the five senses. Read the story of Dives. He saw Lazarus afar off in Abra­ ham's bosom; he called to Abraham and heard him speak; he asked - for water, which revealed the fact that he could taste; he felt the torments of hell, and maybe he could smell the flame of torment. No doubt the redeemed soul .in the glory world can see the beauties, bear the me­ lodies, taste the bliss and water of eternal life, feel the peace and e- ternal joy of heaven, and maybe smell the fragrance. Gloty to God. This is true in spite of atheists and infidels. However, God declares in His holy Word that we have a sonl Jesus asked the solemn ques tion; ’’For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” The first account of the soul is found in Genesis 2 :7: ’’And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into bis nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” Ac­ cording to the Word of God the soul of man shall exist forever, either in heaven or hell, according to how we live and die. If we live for God faithfully and truly, after accepting Jesus as our Savior, and being cleansed through His prec­ ious blood, and die in that condit­ ion, then heaven will be iur home. If we serve the devil and live in stn, and die like that, then hell will be our portion. What about your soul? Are you treating it as you should? Are you attending to your salvation? Your soul is a pearl of great price. There is no valuation that can be placed upon it. If it is lost, it is the greatest loss pos­ sible. If it is saved, it is the grea­ test redemption \possihle. O, my dear fe|low traveler, don’t neglect your soul’s salvation? You can’t afford it. The loss is too great. Come to Jesus that He may save you. This is life’s better way. Come to Him -now, SWAT THE JAPS WITH JUNK. ★ ★ W h a ty o u H tuf W U h WAH BDIVDS^ Winter flying jackets for Kottt the Army and Navy Air Corps are regu­lar equipment for our aviators.

Proctor, president of the Northwest District of North Caro­ lina Eldueation Association, an­ nounced plans for “streamlining” or reducing attendance at the district meeting to be held in High Point October 23rd. Instead of having more than 2,000 present, which is a normal attend­ ance, there will be about 200. These delegates will be elected by the re­ spective units, with one allowed for each 15 paid up members. School will not be closed this year, another custom that is being can­ celled for the duration. In the past the schools have closed all day so all of the teachers might attend both general sessions and those planned for their respective interest groups. Proctor said this streamlined plan is being followed in all six districts of the state. It is worked out in co­ operation with the Office of Defense Transportation. Similar plans are being made in other states. Program plans call for most of the time to be devoted, to business. There will be a session in the morn­ ing, luncheon group • gatherings at noon, and an afternoon meeting. A dinner meeting October 22 will beheld for presidents of the city and county units of the district. AddreBs by General Hershey, in­ tended to highlight the originally ar­ ranged meeting when a large at­ tendance was expected, has been cancelled. Any speakers who will participate wiil come from this district, Proctor said. In The Name Of Decency Tbe Gastonia Gazette In connection with the record- breaking $42,820,000,000 Army sup­ ply bill, Senator Charles L. McNary of Oregon who took a stand that should receive public commendation. He asked for time to condsider the bill, “in the name of decency and some cencern for expenditure of pub­ lic funds.” He raid, "I always try to be fair and reasonable. But here is a bill calling for an appropriation of nearly $43,000,000,000 with a 92- page report and a record of four days’ hearings.” The senator objected to being re­ quired to pass on such an important measure on virtually an hour’s no­ tice. “I don’t question the amounts I am interested in a display of judg­ ment. This is just pushing mem­ bers of the Senate around. We ought to have at least one day to consider the bill—a sum bigger than the cost of the last war, a sum which a few months ago was considered by many as bigger than a safe limit on the public debt.” Senator McNary is to be commend­ ed for asking “a display of calmness and judgment.” instead of blindly waving the flag to cloak unnecessary, hasty action on matters so vital to the nation. With the public debt es timated'at 130 billion do1 Iars in 1943. his action may be encouraged closer secrutiny of future appropriation measures. An Old Plow Many have said that a fanner’s money goes into machinery which soon wears out, but, according to the Davie Record of Mocksville, N.

Making of them Christian brothers, Full of godliness and love. We should give them words of warning. Words of comfort and of cheer. Never scoffing, never scorning As we meet them there and here. Helping them to live far better Than they otherwise would do; For to God we are a debtor As this life we journey through. Giving of ourselves 'to others— Time and talent, means and all— Makea us friends and makes us brothers, Whether we are great or small; And it’s this that makes us kingly. And our lives a blessing great. Helping men in mass or singly To a higher, better state. God requires that we be giving Best of what we have away. For this is the art of living That He plans for us each day; And it makes happy-hearted. Noble, godly and sublime; Then when life we have departed We shall enter Heaven’s clime.

WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEM UEL F. PARTON Consolidated Features.—WNU Release. NEW YORK--We get word from Detroit that Igor Sikorsky’s helicopter, the rocking chair o! the sky, is in production and that one Dreams to Music; War Helicopter Is ufacturing Latest Contribution and navy have been this way and that about the helicopter, but there is no doubt that it is now a war weapon. Its uses are a military secret, but its value in spotting submarines and in reconnaissance are obvious. It can take off from any ship deck and it can hover in the air like a hum­ ming bird while a mechanic swings down under and changes a wheel. Igor Sikorsky is a shy, gentle man who dreams great dreams. His book, “The Story of the IVinged S,” begins with the story of a dream. At the age of 24 he was the father of Russian Aviation and he was lannehing cardboard dinosaurs into the air before the Wright brothers flew at Kitty Hawk. HebuiItthefirst great air clippers and the czar’s first huge bombers were of his design. With the revolu­ tion on, he found it difficult to keep his mind on his dreams and went to Paris to lecture before TMCA audiences on a variety of subjects. Rachmaninoff, the pianist, wanted him to keep on dreaming, and, with other musicians, gathered $100,000 to this end. In the U. S. A., he built the huge S-35. It was to take Rene Fonck to France,- but it crashed on the runway and burned two men to death. Mr. Sikorsky kept on de­ signing and building, a pioneer of multi-engined planes, in his 36-acre air plant in Connecticut. His dreams are paced to mu­ sic, Chopin frequently, as music is somehow innate in his genius and inseparable from his aero­ nautical flights into the future— which he says belongs .0 the air. Eight hundred classical records are a part of his work- a-day equipment. On his tidy little home farm, he raises cu­ cumbers and drives his own tractor. He Ivves cucumbers, perhaps on account of their nice design. He is plump, bald and hesitant, with a Charlie Chaplin mnstache. His father was pro­ fessor of psychology at the Uni­ versity of Kiev. TT WOULD BE just like the versa- ■* tile marines to unveil a sea-going truck. That’s just what they have done, and. we’ve been trying to find Sea-Coing “ T t S Just What Doctor in the Dieppe Ordered tor War ra^ e navy wasn’t talkative about it, but there is sufficient wide open news of this jungle jallopy to justify the con­ clusion that it is the most novel and exciting new fighting tool this war has yet produced and sure to score heavily in landing operations to come—and it appears that they are coming fast. The marines call it their “in­ vasion taxi,” and its inventor, Donald Roebling, grandson of the builder of the Brooklyn bridge, calls it the “alligator.” It goes about twice as fast on land as on water. Twenty-five feet long and about as wide as a box car, it can be lowered over the side of a transport or warship, take the water like a duck and, hitting the shore, keep right on mushing along It can carry a big load of leather­ necks, a military freight car, or plenty of fighting gear. The cater­ pillar treads have wide, diagonally placed cleats which serve as fins or paddles in the water, and nobody has to tuck them in or reset them when it reaches land. It is armed and armored, of . course not heavily-, but capable of resisting fairly brisk fire. On February 17 of this year, the marines ordered 200 of them at a cost of $3,200,000. They have been in forced-draft production in a big Detroit auto factory. Down in Florida, it was just a “swamp buggy” at first, or a "mer­ cy tank,” developed by Donald Roebling after the hurricane of 1933, to rescue storm victims marooned in the Everglades. It took him seven years to bring it through and a war to make him change the name from “mercy tank” to ‘‘alligator.’' He apparently in­ herited the inventive and construc­ tive genius of his grandfather, the late Washington A. Roebling, who not only built the Brooklyn bridge, but spanned Niagara gorge in 1850. Young Roebling has been known as a sportsman, much at sea on his yacht Iorano, on which he led a Smithsonian exploration of the Carib­ bean sea and the Gulf of Mexico in 1937. His absorbing life interests are science and invention. And Now It’s the ‘WAGS’ £4 “WACCS,” “WAVES”—and now the “WAGS.*' For your Information, the “WAGS” are the dogs inducted for duty in the U.

One of the commonest causes of constipation Is simply this: Modem diets, superreflned, too often give us too little “bulk food.” In BUtii cases, dosing with cathartics and purges rives only temporary relief •— the trouble comes back again and again. The way to more lasting relief is to get at the underlying cause and correct it. Tou can do this by eating KELLOGG’S ALL-BBAN daily. This delicious, toasty cereal sup­plies the needed “bulk.” It acts pleasantly; works principally on the contents of the colon, help­ing you to have easy and normal elimination. In many cases, eat­ ing ALL-BRAN regularly and drinking plenty of water brings lasting freedom from constipa­ tion. Aiade by Kellogg's in Battle Creek.

They had been strutting about like conquerors, for had not their mighty Duce de­ feated France almost singlehanded? This proved a diplomatic error. A group of French sailors looked at one another, spat on their hands, and went into action, each choosing his man. When the fight finished, five Italians were in the hospital, where one died. ■ When the British attacked, both the Germans and Italians offered to help the defenders, but the French coolly refused. In accepted Axis fashion, the Italians promptly scut­ tled both their ships. The Germans tried to, but their ship was in dry dock and sank only a few feet. To finish her off, the Germans put three time bombs inside, but the British arrived too quickly and sent the crew back aboard. The perspiring Germans hastily got rid of the bombs. The British attack was a com­ plete surprise. On the eve of the assault, when the British fleet was closing in almost within eyesight, the unsuspecting French watched a football game between a submarine crew and a sporting club. The action was one of the best planned and best executed of Uie en­ tire war. The British came in by the back door—a series of. beaches and bays across an island 20 miles •away. One such bay was covered by large French guns whose crews had received written orders saying ‘‘No night time firing, because it is impossible for anyone to enter the bay in the dark.” Shoals, reefs and mine fields guard­ ed the bay, yet the British used such /superb navigation, and swept the ‘mines so silently, that when dawn broke, the ships lay in the bay, with most of their forces already ashore. A body of Commandos crept up to the great coastal guns and cap­ tured them without firing a shot. Also at dawn, British planes dropped pamphlets on a French air­ drome ordering the French to mass in the center of the field if they wished to surrender. A Scottish colonel led a bayonet charge, armed only with a walking stick. While the French were occupied with the back­ door attack, a single destroyer made a daring dash into the front door and landed marines on the town wharf. This diversion hastened the French collapse. The French fought stubbornly, but they were hopelessly outnumbered In men and material, and it was all aver within a hundred hours. The defenders received generous treat­ ment and all the honors of war. Fully armed and with flags flying, .they marched past the British com­ manders and stacked their arms. The British occupation proceeded smoothly. Most French officers were quickly released on parole, which none violated.

F IR ST -A ID to the AILING HOUSE fty ROGEftB. WHITMAN Roger B. Whitman—WNU Features. CIRCULATING TYPE OF HEATEB USEFUL FOB SMALL BOUSES ONE of my correspondents is wor­ ried about the heating of his house in the coming winter. It has only four rooms, with no cellar. The chimney has two flues; one for the kitchen range and the. other for a stove in one corner of the livings room. Last winter, which was h i first in the house, the bedroom was cold, and he had one or two freezes in the bathroom. He wants to know if he can do anything that will make the heating more uniform. Under the conditions he could make very good use of what is called a circulat­ ing heater. This is a stove with a sheet metal jacket around it, open at the bottom and with a grille across the top. It works something like a chimney. Air within the jack­ et is heated by the stove, and can escape only through the grills at the top. By the force of its move­ ment, it spreads along the ceiling and is carried through open doors to the rooms adjoining. Cooler air that is displaced, sinks to the floor and makes its way to the openings at the bottom of the jacket. The move­ ment carries the air upward into the jacket where it is reheated. A circulating heater thus keeps the air in motion all through the room in a way that is not possible with a stove of the ordinary type. This idea wiU not work well in a house with ceil­ ings 15 inches or more above the tops of the door openings, for then the heated air will be trapped, and cannot move freely from room to room. With low ceilings, results should be excellent. When ceilings are high, openings can be cut in the walls as high as possible to permit the circulation of hot air from room to room. Where this is not possible, a small electric fan directed towards the ceiling will keep the heated air in circulation.... Damaged Linoleum. Q.: H ue linoleum has been dam­ aged Iqr an alkaline drain cleaner. How can this be neutralized? A.: The alkali has eaten into the linoleum, which cannot be restored. Get a new piece of linoleum of the same pattern, big enough to cover the spot; lay it over the damaged place with the pattern matching, and cut through both layers with a very sharp knife. Remove the old piece, scrape the floor dean, and inlay the new piece with roofing cement softened by heating. Smears on the surface can be taken off with turpentine. If you cannot get a new piece of the same pattern you can get an ornamental square or panel that will do the trick. ... Locating a Fase One of my correspondents writes of having had occasion to replace single electric outlets on his second floor with double outlets. With other families in the home, he could not cut off all of the current in the house by opening the main switch. The alternative was to unscrew the fuses one at a time until he had cut off the circuits on which he was working. As the fuses were not marked, he conceived the idea of connecting his radio to the outlets and turning it on full, so that he could hear it in the cellar. He then loosened the fuses one at a time, until the radio stopped. This was a very neat solution to a common problem;... Walt Lifloleam. Q.: In changing a pantry into a bathroom I want to finish the plas­ ter with linoleum. Should I use floor linoleum or felt base? The wall is painted. Should it have special treatment? Is there danger that the linoleum will let loose or bulge? A.: Wall linoeum is a thin vari­ ety made for the job and should be applied by a trained linoleum layer. Floor linoleum or felt base will not do. When properly applied, wall linoleum is an excellent finish and can be strongly recommended. ’. * • . Starting a Coal Fire. Before starting a fire in a heater, the ash^pit should be cleaned out; grate bars that are wraped or broken should be replaced. The grate bars that are warped or layer of coal, on which the paper, and kindling are laid. When these are well ignited, coal should be put on top. Coal above and below burn­ ing ldndling will ignite quickly. Full draft should be on until the coal is burning brightly.* . . . Boots in Sewer.

Dissolve one-half popnd or so in any plumbing fixture and let it drain into the pipe.... No Sheathing Paper. Q.: Our shingle house was built (rithout lining paper, and the wall with northern exposure gets icy cold. We do not wish to go to the expense of insulating with rock wool, but thought we could use an insulat­ ing board on that wall and paper over that. Perhaps we could use lining paper between. Would it help? A.: Yes, it would help, but in order to get good results get-in touch with the. manufacturer of the insulating board for instructions on wallpapering over it.

NEW EFFECTIVE HAY FEVEB BELIEF Hay fever, which annually causes more sneezes, more in­ flamed noses and more red, streaming eyes than any other scourge, may have its final big fling this September, all because a Pennsylvania electrical engineer was served a dish of com meal mush which was entirely too salty.The engineer, sneezing, and with all other hay fever mani­ festations, stopped at a hotel where he was served a dish of mush which he considered send­ing back as it was much too salty. Finally he ate it, however; the hay fever attack lessened, ul­ timately ceased. Next day he had three meals, all oversalted, and experienced his most comfortable time in years in the “hay fever His analytical mind quickly grasped the possibility that the saline substance in his food was responsible for his relief. About this time, Dr. E. E. Sel- leck, a graduate of Columbia Uni­versity, met the engineer, made notes, and when he returned to his home, began experiments. To­ day Dr. Selleck declares he has found a certain means of relief for hay fever and is supported in his contention by'other medical experts, and a nationally known chemical manufacturing concern, the Hollings-Smith Company, at ’ g, New York, has tak­en over making the remedy, which is called Nakamo Bell.Describing the experiments, Dr. Selleck said, “After I was sure I had found a means ofquickly reliev in g hay fever through the chloride group, I tested it in the most practical way I knew. I held a three day clinic, to which many hay fever sufferers responded, from ages ranging from 10 to 60 years. Each person was given two tabletswith a little water. Some relief came io all within ten minutes. Reports on these cases during the ensu­ing weeks showed practically a complete cessation of symptoms.” —Adv. Is yoar dry floor mop too dirty for further use? Wash it in warm suds, rinse well, and dry in the air, shaking it occasionally to re­ store fluffiness.... A teaspoon of vinegar* beaten into boiled frosting when flavor­ ing is added will keep it from be­ ing brittle when cut.... Soap jelly may be used for shampooing upholstery or small rugs; for washing painted furni­ ture, woodwork and walls, for lin­ gerie washing and hair shampoos. ... The old family coffee pot can be kept sweet by occasionally boiling in it a strong solution of borax. ... Before using a new broom, soak it half an hour in cold water. This will make the wood around the bristles swell up and keep the bristles in place. Hang up the broom to dry before using it. wsRin UR6EST selieb jot » Two Principles The whole duty of man is em­ braced in the two principles of abstinence and patience; temper­ ance in prosperity, and patient courage in adversity.—Seneca.

IN ADVANCE - $ I 00 SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE - S SO There are some politicians that we wouldn’t trust as far as a crip­ pled man could throw a millstone backward. It is less than 6o days until the November election. It is time for all good men to come to the aid of their candidates. The latest Gallop polls shows that the Republicans will gain at least 21 seats in tbe next Congress, with a possibility that they may have a majority in Congress This is good news for the Republicans but bad news for the New Dealers. , A Fine Record Fort Knox, K;., Sept. 10.1942. Dear Hr. Stroud:—Rave watched The Record for tbe past two or three weeks for the articles about tbe number in Service from one family. Have thought about writing before now, but since I can write In a record that beats this week's, thought I’d do so. Although there are not four in the “Armed Service,” I think this will give the "Fours” a pretty close race. We have from our family three in the Armed Forces, two in tbe Navy and one in tbe Army, four brothers and two brother-in-laws in the ship yards. If there were any more boys in the family, guess they would also be “in” somewhere. Our bit is credited to Mr. and Mrs G. L. Craven. Let's all help wipe out those murderous Japs and Ger­ mans. Pfc.

THE STORT SO FA R: Because Nor­ land Airways needs the m oney A Iaa' SIade agrees Co fly a “ scientist” nam ed Frayne and bis partner, Kam el), to the Anawotto river In search of the trum ­ peter swan. With the proceeds Slade’s partner, Cm ger1 buys a Lockheed plane, which is stolen while Slade Is aw ay. When he returns he starts out to recover the plane. He is being aided by an eski- mo nam ed Dm anak and by two old pros­ pectors, Zeke and M inty. Acting on a hunch SIade goes to FraynC s k cam p, where he discovers th at the m issing plane is being used by Frayne to take something out of the country. Slim Tum stead, an outcast pilot, is flying for him. Wben SIade attem pts to exam ine the plane’s cargo he is knocked un­ conscious by Karnell. He is ’’rescued” by Tum stead but-later abandoned h y him on a deserted island. Zeke and M inty find Slade’s plane near Frayne’s cam p and, after a gun battle with Frayne’s crowd,, return to guard it. Now SIade is making preparations for his escape to the m ainland. Now continue with the story. CHAPTER XV It was not long before he had fire­ wood awaiting his lighter. And by the time he had gathered wood and dry moss and feathered his cave floor with spruce branches his joints feit rusty and his movements slowed down. He ate an inch of his choco­ late, added wood to the fire, and crawled into his cave, where he nested down in his bed of spruce needles and moss. There quick wave after wave of utter weariness wiped memory from his mind. The fire was out and the sun was up when he wakened. He emerged from his. smother of moss and sat up, refreshed by his sleep. Having breakfasted with studious frugality, he realized that he must widen his margin of safety in the matter of food supplies for the fu­ ture. His one possibility there, he felt, would be fish from the lake. But his first tries were fruitless. Then it came home to him that in his haste he had resorted to water too shallow for his purposes. So he wound up his line and rounded the island until he came to a more promising pool. In five minutes he had hooked a fish heavy enough to threaten his pole. He stood a little drunk when it finally lay on the rock ledge beside him. For that gasping white body meant more than a meal to him. It meant life; it meant hope; it meant final deliverance from a prison of hunger. For he had decided to effect his escape to the mainland. It was, he felt, his only hope. While his first need would be a reserve of food, the one thing es­sential to his escape was a raft. As Tumstead must have figured out, his prisoner would be without strength for a three-mile swim in cold northern water. Even though he survived that swim, to land sod­den and exhausted on an inhospita­ ble shore, without fire and ample food, would be to invite disaster. On his island stood no timber of conse­ quence. But, spindling as they were, he could collect and trim enough spruce boles to make a raft capable of carrying his provisions and keep­ ing his lighter and his clothing dry. It would not be substantial enough to sustain his own weight. But he could strip and push it ahead of him as he swam. That day and the next day and the day that followed were crowded with toil. The early morning hour of the day he gave to catching fish, which he later dressed and smoked and stowed away on his starchigan. He fished again in the evening, at an hour when his strikes proved most frequent. At mid-afternoon, when the sun had warmed the shal­lows, he dug and washed his bul­ rush roots. When that was done he gathered firewood. And when that was done he turned to digging spruce roots, which he patiently knotted and braided into lengths of wattap. From them, with equal pa­ tience, he wove a muskamoot, which could hang from his shoulders like a musette-bag and hold secure his possessions and a quantity of food. The next morning Slade made ready for his trek. He had chosen mid-day as the best hour for push­ ing off, since the surface water by that time would have lost , a little of its chill and plenty of daylight would remain, at the end of his journey, to find a suitable camp site and get settled for the night. The water was colder than he had expected. This prompted him to throw more vigor into his arm strokes. But half a mile from shore he found an ache of fatigue creep­ing into his muscles. That fright­ ened him a little. He leaned on the raft end and rested. He looked about, to place his land­ mark, knowing that he must keep active, that he must keep blood coursing through his chilled limbs, that he must push on to the end. He was within a mile of his goal. He thought of a hot campfire, with flames bursting through spruce logs piled high. Then all such thoughts abruptly ended. For out of the blue that arched above him he heard a far- off and familiar drone. It was a drone that grew louder as he lis­ tened and became shot through with a throb of power and mounted al­ most to a roar. High in the sky above the serrated ridge-tops he saw a plane. £ I m —15— For that gasping white body meant life; it meant hope. Slade waved and shouted. But the wings neither dipped nor banked. Slade started swimming again, in a cold fury of defeat. Something not unlike indignation gave strength to his strokes as he fought his des­ perate-way forward. He kept on, refusing to recognize the claws of pain that tore at his entrails or the weariness that made his breath come in quick and shuddering gasps. He kept on until his raft end ground­ ed on a sandspit and he stumbled ashpre and threw himself full length along a sun-warmed slope. •‘I don’t like this,” said the Fly­ ing Padre, after he and his leather- clad daughter had dropped down on Iviuk Inlet to learn that Umanak had not returned from his overland trip to Echo Harbor. “Umanak knows his way about,” said Lynn. “What worries me is that we’ve had no word from Alan.” “Why should that worry you?” asked the Padre. “Because he should have been back before this,” protested the girl in dungarees. “I hate to think of him in country where he’s so out of reach of help.” “Isn’t he that way most of the time?” “But this is different,” maintained Lynn. “And we can’t even get through to him by radio.” “So you’ve been worrying about Slade?” •Tm afraid I have. Dad.” Some unexpected note of humility in that response prompted the Padre to glance 'over his shoulder and meet her gaze. “When did you find-that out?” he asked. “Find what out?” parried Lynn. “That your bush hawk’s worth worrying over. Or, to put it more plainly, that he’s beginning to loom a little bigger in your mind than Barrett Walden.” “I didn’t say that.” She was able to laugh a littie at the solemnity in his eyes. “But you must remember that I’ve still got you on my mind.” Lynn’s father, turning to her, rest­ ed a hand on either slender shoul­ der. “You’re mighty loyal to me, aren’t you?” he said. “I love you, Dad,” she said quite simply.“What we’re going to do now is pick up Umanak. And as soon as that’s done we’re going to see what’s keeping Alan in the Ana- wotto country.”But that declaration failed to re­ move the line of worry from Lynn’s brow as she stood staring across the low-lying horizon to the south. “He’s so careless and reckless,” she complained. “He seems to love taking chances. He won’t even car­ ry a radio.”The Flying Padre smiled.“When did women begin losing their liking for courage?” he de­ manded.“They always like courage,” an­ swered Lynn, "but when you like the man who has it you rather want to know what’s happening to him.” “All right,” said the Padre, “let’s start. And while the sun’s still high we’ll see what we can do about pick­ ing up old Umanak.” Picking up Umanak, however, proved less simple than it promised. A two-hour combing of the coast­ line showed no sign of him. Then Lynn, acting as observer, caught sight of what looked like smoke sig­ nals from an empty fishing village. The Flying Padre, informed of this, promptly circled back and swung low over the forlorn littie huddle of huts. In front of those huts Lynn made out a squat figure, gesticulat­ing to them as they droned over it. By the time they had nosed out a landing space, behind a saddle­ back island that broke the surf, ’Umanak was waiting for them on the beach. He was footsore and emaciated, but the seamed old face wore a smile of triumph.“Me found um,” he announced. “Found what?” questioned the Padre.“What devil-bird take to deep-wa­ ter cave.”But Lynn at this point intervened. She came running from the plane with her coffee thermos and a gen­ erous portion of their emergency rations. “He’s weak from hunger,” she contended. “He must take some of this before he talks.” Umanak squatted on the shingle slope and ate like a hungry wolf. Then, grunting with satisfaction, he reached into the pouch of his worn and patched kooletah and produced a fragment of velvet-black mineral with a pitch-like luster.“That um,” he announced. The Flying Padre took the frag­ment and turned it over in his hands. He noted its heaviness and com­ pactness, its suggestion of octahe­dron cleavage with faint tinges of brown and green. “Why, this is pitchblende,” he said. "It’s what we’re getting our radium from these days.”“But why should pitchblende be flown to Echo Harbor?” asked Lynn as she studied the lustrous mineral. “Who’d want it for radium there?” “That’s what I don’t understand,” said the man of medicine. He turned to question.Umanak.“Just where and how did you find this?” “Me find um in cave,” Umanak repeated. “In cave where water make deep harbor behind island. Heap big black stones piled there. Blade stones like that,” he insisted, pointing to the pitchblende.“How big heap?” questioned the other.“More big than two three black whale. Big heap hide there next to sea. Maybe ship come and take black stones away.” “But why?” demanded the puz­ zled Padre.Umanak had no answer for that. He was more interested, at the mo­ment, in reaching for another hand­ ful of Lynn’s dried beet The Flying Padre suddenly turned to him. “Did you see your ghost plane when you were out there?” - “No see,” answered Umanak. Lynn took her turn at once more inspecting the lustrous fragment of mineral. “Is there any other use for pitch­blende?" she inquired. “Yes,” was the meditative an­ swer. “It’s our best source of he­lium gas now. But what good would helium be to anyone in this wilder­ ness?” “What good is It in other parts of the world?” The Flying Padre considered that question. “The American Navy uses it in their dirigibles. And the Germans, when they could get it, used it in their Zepps. But the States refused to release a stock to Hitler’s air­men when we couldn’t get a guaran­ tee it wasn’t going to be used for war purposes. So our German friends fell back on hydrogen, you may remember. Helium, you see, isn’t inflammable.” “But they’re so far away from our pitchblende,” Lynn objected. “They would have no way, now, of getting it to their chemical plants.” “Chemical plants,” echoed the man of medicine as his browcreased with thought. ____ “Wait a minute,” was the cry that came from the Padre’s lips. “We’re overlooking something.” He took the black stone from Lynn. “You get more than helium from this stuff. You get more than radium. You get uranium, uranium that has a flow of atomic energy five million times greater than what you’d get by burning coal. And supposing Alan’s right in his claim that this is going to be harnessed and controlled and his U-235 is going to be a new power, a power a billion times stronger than anything known? And supposing Hitler has ordered a blitzkrieg of research in his home laboratories and they’re a jump or two ahead of us In splitting the ura­nium atom? That would give him an explosive three hundred times stronger than TNT and a battleship that would be independent of fuel as long as it floated. And pitchblende, remember, is the nut that holds that meat. And all around us here is the world’s biggest and best pitchblende deposit.” "But still I don’t understand,” de­murred Lynn. . “I don’t, myself,”, agreed her fa­ ther. “Not. yet. But the light’* coming to me. And the sooner we take Umanak home and get at the bottom of this the better.” (TO BE CONTINUED) IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY ICHOOL L esso n By HAROLD L.

JUDAH: AN EXAMPLE OF SELF-SACRIFICE LESSON TEX T -G enesis 44:18-34. GOLDEN TEXT—H ereby perceive we the love ot God, because he laid down his life tor us: and we ought to lay down our lives tor the brethren.—I John 3:16. The family is still the fundamental unit of society, and is therefore of more importance than the church, the state, or the social order of which it is, a vital part. Every force which encourages the breakdown of the sacred relationships of the home and family is set for the' destruction of society itself.Men have too often chosen to go the way of the flesh, and therefore they have disregarded God’s plan and purpose. But marriage is just as sacred as ever in His sight; the home is to be kept for Him; and brotherly love still finds a high place among the virtues of real men. Today’s lesson is a continuation of the story of Joseph’s life. As we study it we must bear in mind Jos­ eph’s dealings with his brethren, who as yet did not recognize him as the one they had sold into cap­tivity. He was bringing them kind­ ly but definitely to the point of real repentance, so that he could show himself gracious to them. To do so he had brought disaster' upon them. Being happily on their way homeward with a new supply of food, they were overtaken and proved to be thieves, and Benja­ min, the beloved of their father Ja­ cob, stood condemned by their own words, to death. In that crisis the mouths of the others seemed closed, but Judah, who had really saved Joseph’s life (Gen. 37:26, 27) and who had ap­ parently come to himself as a man of essential goodness, pleaded for Benjamin’s life. That plea present­ ed a truly sacrificial brotherly love, as he manifested I. Courage (v. 18). Easy rests the yoke of family life as long as all is joyful and prosper­ ous. But when adversity - strikes, when sorrow comes,- or sickness, or sin, then the true test of devotion is at hand. It was a brave and manly thing for Judah to stand before the one whom he knew only as the man who was “even as Pharaoh.” The circumstances were all against him. He expected the flaming anger of the offended ruler. His brethren had collapsed in despair. It was one of those dark hours which come to every family when someone must demonstrate true love by being strong-hearted and steady, n. Intelligence (w. 19-29). Crises call for more than a cheer­ful smile or an encouraging word, much as they may mean in such an hour. Wemustliieprepared byour dose contact with our loved ones to speak and act with vigor and as­ surance. Judah’s plea is a masterpiece of argumentation and appeal, demon­ strating that he was not only well- informed about his family and its problems, but ready to use his knowledge skillfully and effectively, m . Self-Denial (w. 3043). One step deeper goes the devotion of this man to his father and his brother. He had done no wrong that merited punishment, but evidently his brother Benjamin had been guilty. Had he been of the spirit of Cain he would have said, “Am I my brother’s keeper?” and let him answer for himself. Why should Ju­ dah suffer for another? Why should he allow himself to be imprisoned in a strange land to save his father from sorrow and his brother from what seemed to be the just reward for his deeds? Thus reasons the man of the world, but such is not the language of the true brother, who says, “Let thy servant abide instead of the lad as a bondman.” IV. Love (v. 34). Love for father and brother un­ derlies all of the courage, conviction and self-sacrifice of a man like Ju­ dah. In his younger years, and possibly under the influence of his brothers, he had failed in that re­ spect, but now- his real devotion to his brother was evident. That affection was a real, power­ ful, and beautiful thing, and yet it is but a faint prefiguring of the af­fection of the One who “sticketh closer than a brother,” whb “though he was rich, yet for your sakes.lie became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich” (Prov. 18: 24; U Cor. 8:9). , LetyUs improve the opportunity to review our relations with our own family, to determine whether there is aught that we in intelligent and courageous self-sacrifice should do for our own.

We live on Route No. 2 , Hid- denite, N. C.. where the birds sing sweetly, the trees are loaded with tbelr beautiful green foilage, tbe flowers Ijloom brightly, the crops grow bountifully, and the neigh, bors treat us kindly. We are in the little Wesleyan Methodist par* sonage—tbe only one in Alexander county—and delight to sojourn out here where it is quiet, where na­ ture is grand and God is near. It is a good place to pray, read and study the Bible, get alone with God, write oar articles, poems and messages for tbe papers, receive our mail and answer our corres­ pondents. Thank God. One of our greatest delights is receiving our mail from day to day. We take upwards of thirty publi­ cations, the most of which we write for, and it means that we have tens of thousands of readers. Out of the many thousands we have some very faithful and regular corres. pondents. It is our delight to hear from them, receive, their wonder­ ful encouragement, along with their small offerings from time to - time, with the wonderful assurance that they are praying for us. What could equal this? Just to love ev­ erybody, and to know that multi­ tudes love us, and to have them stand by us faithfully—that is far better than sit upon a mighty ear­ thly throne as a great monarch, or ruler of some kind, knowing that we are ruling in unrighteousness, and that multitudes of people hate us, and the frowns of Almighty God are upon us. While we cannot publish all the letters we receive, as it would take all our space, yet we delight to give one or more a little space from time to time, as we believe they will help and encourage others to write, or to pray, live for God, give1 of their means to the suppoit of the Gospel, and to aress onward and upward toward the Celestial City. Here is a letter that came recently that we delight to publish: Baltimore, Md. Rev. Walter E. Isenhour, Hiddenite, N. C. Dear Bro. Isenhour: —Guess you think we have forgotten you all, bnt we haven’t We remember you in prayer if we don’t write often. My health has been bad. I was in the hospital the last of February, but I thank the good Lord that my health is better. Our dear mother was taken sick in Febraary and died tbe 24 th. It left onr home sad, but we know it was God's will for her to go. We feel that she is resting in pedce in the home God has prepared for His dear children. I hope and pray we may all meet her some glad day, where partings and sorrows will be no more. Your good sermons and letters have been so much help to us—so much comfort, uplift and inspira­ tion these sad, lonesome days. We read your sermon first when we get the paper. We owe so much to our Aunt Myra Johnson, of Lax- on, N. C., for she sent me one of your sermons, which was the first one I ever read. May God bless her in health and strength that she may do His will. She is a willing worker for our Lord and Master. It is our duty to do all tbe good we can in shis world, trust in God, and have great faith in Him. He cares for His (jear children wherev< er they are. May we al' trust and obey Him. May He bless and save all onr dear boys everywhere. I have a nephew who is sailing on tbe water somewhere now, and I want you to pray for him. My oldest boy registered In February, and has received his questionnaires, but has not learned what class he is in, Hope your boys are well, and may God bless them all wherever they Uttle Stingers. From TbeYelIow Jaeket It’s a fact that you don’t hear so mo'cb about the “Braintrnsters” as formerly. It seems that these birds have about outlived their days of usefulness—if there ever was any use for Buch hare-braine * meddlers, The Stinger stands for political de­ cency. It stands for immediate end rag of profit-gouging, for stripping of waste, graft, and all partisan fa* voritiam from war contracts. It stands for efficiency and economy in all government business. In short it stands for Oldfashioned, Abe Lin­ coln Republicanism. Can you beat that? Congress has finally abolished tbe CCC and is now after the scalp of the WPA. It was a ca e of neces sity. Our alphabetical soud was get* ting too thick. They are making new boards and bureaus so fast in Washington that therewere not en­ ough letters in the alphabet to go a- round. The New Deal bosses have ruled that politions are entitled to an ex­ tra supply of gas to haul the voters out to the election. In the language of H. HopkinB, maybe they figure that the voters are "too dam dumb” to find the way to the polls. We wilt never understand why tbe New Deai spends millions of dollors to hire hundreds of expert publicity agents to broadcast the doings fo the New Deals commissions and boards. Seems to us they’d do better to hire man to hush up their boondoggling bungles. Tbe administration .continues to oppose labor reform legislation and at the same time admits that some­ thing will have to be - dona to con< trol wages if private industry is to survive. But it purposes, to wait un­ til after the election this fall. Then look out, you suckers. It may take years to do it, but this war will not have accomplished its legitimate purpose until Tokyo and Berlin are literally blasted to tbe ground. ‘And tbe sooner tbe Higher- Ups quit playing politics and get down to business will this noble pur­ pose be accomplished. Lost and found eohunns of Tokio newspapers are crowd* ed these days. Every time aa Ameriean bnys a War Bond, the Japs lose faee. B ay y ear 10% every p ay day. go. My boys are well and work­ ing every day. We are sending you $3 to be used as you see best in writing and preaching the Gospel. May God bless you in the good work iou are doing, and may many souls be saved and blest through your good teachings. If we never meet on earth, may we all meet in heaven some sweet day. Remem, ber us in your prayers. Your friends, M n. Maude Houck and Family.

Tmnty DtfBimtm A Soldier’s Experience Note: An onknowo soJdler-aotbor bas written a letter to a triend, explaining bis experience from tbe time he took bis ex­ amination until he went to Australia. Tbe letter has been given much public­ ity and enjoying wide popularity. It was sent us by a friend in High Point Tbe letter follows: D ear : * I am one of the fellows who made the world saf. for democracy. What a crazy thing that was! I ■ fought and fought but I had to go any­ way. I was called in class “A. The next time I want to be put in class “ B.” B here when they go Lttd B here when they get back I remember when I was registered! I went to the desk and my milk­ man was in charge. He says, •'What’s your name?” I said, “young man, you know my name.” Again he said, “ what’s your name” so I told him “ August Childs.” He said, “Are you alien?” I said, “No, I feel fine.” Then he asked: “ When did you first see tbe light of day?” I replied, “ When I mov­ ed to Philadelphia from Pittsburg.” He asked me bcw old I was, so I told him “Twenty.three the first of September.” He said the first of September you will be in Austtalia and that will be the last of August. A veterinarian started to examine me. He asked me if I had ever had measles, smallpox, St. Vitus dance, and if I took fits I said, “No, on. Iy when I stay in a saloon too long ” Then he said, “Can you see all right?” I said, “Sure, but I'll be cock-eyed tonight if I pass." Then he listened around my.: chest and said, “ I think: youhave a wart somewhere." I said, ’‘Wart, my neck, that’s a buiton in your ear.” Tbe doctor said he had examined 147 ,0 0 0 - men and I was tbe most perfect physical wreck th t he had examined Then be handed me a card—class “A,” Then I went to camp and I guess they didn’t think I would live long. The first fellow wrote on my card, Flying Corps/’ I went a little further. a»d some guy said, “Look what the wind’s blowing in.” I said, “ Wind nothing, the draft is doing it.” On the second morning they put these clothes on me. Wbat an outfit! As soon as you are in it you think you can lick anybody. Tbey have two sizes, too lasge and too small. Tbe pants are too tight —I can’t sit down. The shoes are so big I turned around three times and they didn’t move. And what a raincoat they gave me. It strain­ ed the rain. I passed the officer all dressed up with a fancy belt and all that stuff and he said calling af­ ter me, ‘‘Didn’t you notice what I have on?” aud I answered, “Yes, what are' you kicking about, look what they gave me.” I landed in camp with $7 5. In ten miuutes I was broke. I never saw so many 3 s aud 12 s on a pair of dice. No matter wbat I did I went broke. Something went wrong even in cards. One time I got 5 aces and I was afraid to bet. A good thing, too, I didn’t,, tbe fel­ low next to me said he had 6 kings. Finally I said, “This is a crooked poker game!” The fellow next to me said, “ We’re playing Pinochil” Everything was crazy. It you were a livery hand you were put in tbe tnedical department. If you were a watchman, you were made an of­ ficer of the day. I was looking a- ronnd and saw a man with a wood­ en leg, and I asked nim wbat he was doing in the army. He said, “I’m going to mash the potatoes.” Oh, it was nice, fine, five below ze­ ro one morning, and they called us out for underwear inspection. You talk about scenery—red flannels, EVP’S—all kinds. - The union suit I bad on would fit Tony Galento. The lieutenant lined ue all up and told me to stand up. I said, “I am up, this underwear makes you think I am sitting down ” He got so mad that he put me out digging ditches. A little while later he pas. sed and »aid, “ Dns’t throw that dirt up here.” I said, “ Wheream I going to throw it?” He said “Dig another hole and dut it in it ” By that time I was pretty mad, so au- otbar guy named Jones and myself drank a quart of whisky. Finally Jones acted so funny I ran to the doctor and told him Jones was go­ ing blind. He asked wbat we were doing and I told him and he asked me if Jones saw pink elephants. I said, “ No, that’s tbe trouble, they are there and be can’t see them Three days later we sailed for Australia. Marching down the pier I bad some moTe bad iuck. I had a sergeant who stuttered, and it took him so long to say “halt” that 27 of us marched overboard. They pulled us out and the captain came along and said, ‘'Fall in'* and I re­ plied “ I have just been iu.” I was on the boat 12 days—sea­ sick all the time. Nothing going down, everything coming up. leaned over the railing all tbe time. In tbe middle of one of my best leans tbe captain rushed up and said, “ What company are you in?’ I said, “Not any, I’m all by my. self.’ H easkedm eif the briga­ dier was np vet. I said, “ If I swallowed it, it’s up.” Talkabbut your dumb people. I said to one of the fellows, “I guessed we drop, ped anchor.” He said, “I knew they’d lose ii. It’s been banging out ever since we left New York.” We had a lifeboat drill and when tbe boat was being lowered overjtbe side of the ship it spilled some men into the water. Only tbe second lieutenant and I were left in jtbe boat. The lieutenant gave orders to pull the men out of the wateijby the'-hair'Of their heads. I :<j»as struggling with the men when, one fellow with a bald bead yelled. Pull me out’’—I said ‘ Go down and Cjtne up tbe right way.” Well, we landed in Australia and were immediately sent to tbe tren­ ches. After three nights in the trenches all the cannons started to roar and shells started to fall. I started shaking with patriotism. I tried to bide behind the trees but there weren't enough trees for all tbe officers. Tbe captain came- a- round and said, “ Five o’clock and we go over tbe top.” I said, “ I’d like a furlough” He a s k e d . “ Hrven’t you red blood in you?” I answered, “Yes, hut I don't want to see it.” He said, “ Where do you want to go?” and I answered Anywhere it’s warm.” He told me where to go. Five o’clock and we went over the top. Ten thousand Japs came at us. They all looked at me as though T had started the war. Our captain yelled: “Fire at will,” but I didn’t know any of their names. I guess the fellow behind me thou­ ght I was Will. He fired his gun and shot me in the excitement. On my way to tbe hospital I asked a fellow where they were taking me, and he told me to the morgue. I cried, “There’s been some mistake. I ’m not dead.” “ Lie down,” he replied, “do you want to make a fool of the doctor?’’ Aud so until next time, love and kisses. KEEP ’EM FIRING, W ITH IUNK!

Overstocked With Waste Paper Sometime ago a nation-wide cam­ paign was staged for waste-paper. Indications at that time were that news and all other better and lower grades ot paper would soon br in­ creased in price, due to a shortage, and that the demand for common wrapping paper would soon find the demand’greater than tbe supply. They now say that the rush for wastepaper in every city has over, stocked the junk dealers who are damoting at the incinerators to pay seventy cents a ton to have it burned It is said that many of tbe buy­ ers of o!d paper have since the cam­ paign started, learned that the freight rate on it cost more than it is worth. Some of those who have been caught by the nation-wide scheme are now charging that the reform­ ers in Washington can cook up more fool schemes than tbe people can keen up with. “The people are ready and will- ing-to do everything possible to win the war but they want to be led a- Iong sound and reasonable lines,” —Twin-City Sentinel. What We Want Is Tires The charge that oil companies have deliberately block the produc­ tion of artificial rubber for mer­ cenary reason is an example of political buck-oassing of the worst- type. One of the largest oil companies recently stated catgorically taat it 'supports and will fight for just have deliberately blocked the pro. synthetic rubber. That is, wbat. ever program tbe government a. dopts to give our nation tbe most rubber in tbe shortest time, from any raw material whatsoever, and with tbe least possible drain on vi. tal construction materials.'’ That Is the policy of the industry gener­ ally. What has delayed the synthetic rubber program is inexcusable poli­ tical manhandling. Bureau after bureau bas stuck its finger into the pie. The public bas been fed one conflicting opinion after another. Only recently has auy order come out of chaos—and only recently bas any real start toward solving the problem been made. Whether synthetic .ubber cr.n best be made from petroleum, grain alcohol or anything else is a chemical problem, not a political problem. The oil industry, like the rest ot the country, wants re­ sults. Its interest, like the inter­ est of all of us. lies in getting tires In the shortest possible time, ir­ respective of the process used to manufacture them.—Ex. THE DAVIE RECORD. MOCKSVILLE, K. C. WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON Consolidated Feature*.—'WNU Release. ;fSjEW YORK--The Boilermakers’ ’ union of Oakland now admits women to full fraternal member­ ship. It wasn’t our fault, but our Women With Nice h™f Sense of Rhythm ing into this ... , war, this ob-Ftt in War Work servation be­ ing not altogether a non sequitur. There's a news paragraph today about a pretty chorus girl working in a defense factory. She’s a slen­ der, pretty little thing, and when you contrast her with the chorus girls of other days, you realize that our entrance cue for a war was back in the time of Billy Watson’s "Beef Trust,” when every girl on the stage looked as if she could shoot dice with anvils. That was the time to open the Boilermakers’ union to the ladies—not now, when no girl is happy unless she has the running gear of a katydid. The chorus girl is Dora Sal- vina, 23, blonde, running a big “clicker" machine for I. SpIe-. wak & Sons, North Bergen, N. J. She juggles 24 dies and shifts a< lot of levers, for a full eight-, hour stretch, bringing through Iaskinlamb suits tor army and navy pilots and bombardiers.' She recently received the Award of Merit of the Laskinlamb insti­ tute for turning out 50 flying: suits In one day, a Tecord to date for any one person. ; Miss Salvina was decorating the front line of “Crazy With the Heat” not so long ago, and before that she was in the World’s fair patriotic spectacle, ‘American Jubiled.” With the war on, she sidestepped USO engagements and found her factory job, figuring flying suits were more important than enter­ tainment Chorus girls are tradi­tionally realistic and she says she works for “pay and patriotism.” There is a cadence in machine op­ erations in which the conditioned rhythms of music and dancing would fit nicely. This no doubt Wias one of Dora’s assets in winning the production award. She's good bqx- office for I. Spiewak & Sons. TWey recently doubled their productioji. TN THE Bible phrase, one would. ^ have to go to and fro on tpe earth to find a team like Henry J. Kaiser, the demon ship-builder, and Two Go-Getter» !!cTard *• Hughes, theReadytoFlyOver flier, tool- Sea of Red Tape £ Signer and picture-producer. They get together to get those 500 cargo planes out of the suspense file and over to the war front. They indi­ cate a short-cut to action. At the age of 18, young Mr. Hughes, now 37, inherited $17,000,- 000, along with the Hughes Tool company of Houston, Texas. His money took wings, in the form of his first moving picture, “Hell’s An-, gels,” a World war aviation opus But it landed with a net increment of $3,000,000 and ever since he ha« been this country’s most interesting blend of romance and business. He kept right on with his tool- making, but in July, 1938, he hightailed it around the world In a plane In less than four days. His nncle, Rupert Hughes, the novelist, first lured him to Holly­ wood, where he made more pic­ tures, taking time out to bnild his own plane plant and dupli­ cate many of the hazardous feats of tt« movie fliers. After bis world flight, the Federated Advertising dnb of Chicago vot­ed him fourth in its list of the 11 outstanding men of the year. Born and brought up in Houston he Attended the fashionable Fessen­ den school of Boston, the Thatcher school of Oiai, Calif., and Rice in­ stitute of Houston. Yes, he has no diplomas. Craving action on some­ thing or other, he always walked out on school before they could tap him for Class day. He is six feet, three, loose-geared and lanky, with dark, stringy hair, and he is an absent-minded dresser who never worries about the crease in his pants. He has the biggest yacht on the Pacific coast—or did have—but he gets his big thrill out of pitching horseshoes. Hollywood gossip columnists have had quite a romp, getting him engaged to this actress or that, but he is still unmar­ ried. We noted here recently Donald Roebling, up to his knees in folding money, who hid out in the Florida swamps for seven years and brought through the marvelous amphibian tank for the marines. His grand­father built the Brooklyn bridge and. his father is a builder and inventor. Mr. Hughes’ forbears were the same kind of people.

EVER since she chalked up that amazing success In “Mrs. Miniver” Greer Garson has been pursued by producers who want her to do a play on Broadway this fall. She’s read a dozen scripts and turned them down. Now she’s been asked to do one called “Queen Elizabeth” ; the asker is Margaret Webster, director - daughter of Dame May Whitty; she directed Miss Garson in her last London stage hit, “Old Mu­sic.” H “Random Harvest,” which the red-haired actress is making with Ronald Colmanl is done in time, she may consent.

Jean Arthur spent most of a day autographing SOO of her own photo­ graphs with kisses not long ago. It .was just after she returned from a tour of army camps, following com­ pletion of “The Talk of the Town.” Whenever she met a boy from New York city, where she was born, she promised to send him a photograph autographed with a kiss. She used two lipsticks before she’d finished. Ever hear of processed parch­ment? Loretta Young encountered it the other day; found she’d been wearing it, in fact, in her new pic­ ture, “The Frightened Stiff.” It’s a new substitute material, and was used in an evening gown. So far as is known, Veronica Lake received the first request from an imprisoned American In Japan for a photograph.

JOSEPH: AN EXAMPLE OF FORGIVENESS LESSON TEXT—Genesis 45:1-15; 47:11,12. GOUDEN TEXT—B e ye kind one to an­ other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christis sake hath forgiven you.—Ephesians 4:32. Forgiveness, opening the way for the restoration of fellowship and the showing of kindness, brought the sto­ ry of Joseph and his brethren to a happy ending. Under the good hand of God the story which began with tragedy is brought to a conclusion of .blessing. Following the earnest plea of Ju­ dah, the heart of Joseph could no longer withhold itself from the full expression of affection and devotion to his family. I. Love Overcomes Fear (w. 1-4). Joseph tenderly shielded the fam­ ily troubles from the eyes and ears of strangers by sending out the Egyptians. It was the first step of consideration which paved the way for reconciliation. How often just the opposite is done—airing family affairs before the world, and humili­ ating those who may be in the wrong, thus making it difficult for them to admit their guilt. Then, too, this was a moment too tender and delicate to be seen by outsiders. The tears of a strong man like Joseph mean a deep movement of spirit—a solemn and often a sa- . cred moment. It should also be noted that the brothers were afraid, and well they might be, because of their sin against Joseph. After almost 50 years these unrepentant men found themselves face to face with the one whom they had supposed they had disposed of, and they knew their sin had found them out. It always does, sooner or later, but inevitably. How great and noble was the for­ giving love of Joseph; an example to us, especially appropriate and needed in a world of hate and bit­ terness. D. Grace Overrules Sin (w. 5-8). The guilt of these men was none the less and Joseph could not re­ move it, but he encouraged them by showing how God had used their evil devices to work out His own good pleasure. He can make the wrath of man to praise Him (Ps. 76:10). . It is worth stressing again that in the very hour when the prospects for Joseph’s future usefulness seemed ruined, God was opening the door to the greatest experiences of his life and was preparing him to serve the thousands whose lives ' were saved by his wisdom and abil­ ity in the years of famine. Nothing is more important in the life of a child of God than to be yielded to His will, unmoved by cir­ cumstances, abiding His time, re­ sponding to His guidance whether it be by the opening or closing of doors, prosperity or adversity. And herein is the marvel of it all—even sin may be overruled by God’s grace for His own glory. That does not invite anyone to sin that grace may abound (Rom. 6:1, 2), Init it does offer encouragement to the one who has fallen, that God can re­ deem the years that the locust have eaten (Joel 2:25). Our lesson also sets us an exam­ ple of how true forgiveness acts, something we need. So often when forgiveness is asked or granted there is an “I can forgive but I can’t forget” attitude, which means that while hostilities have ceased, at least temporarily, there is no real friendship or the disposition to show kindness. Is there any real forgive­ ness at. all in such an attitude of heart and mind? We fear not. III. Kindness Provides the Best (w . 9-15; 47:11, 12). It might have been enough to send food and a kind greeting with the brothers to their own land, but love does not seek the minimum expres­ sion of its feeling. It asks not how little,-but how much can I give or do. Bringing his aged father and brothers into the land of plenty was not enough, Joseph also gave to them the “best of the land” (47:11). His thoughtful consideration in send­ ing for his father (Gen. 46:5-7) was part of the same piece of kindness. Joseph puts to shame the modem “hard-boiled” attitude toward needy and aged members of the family. In their eager and relentless pur­ suit of fame or riches, many ignore or trample upon the .members of their own families. Often they are ashamed of the broken bodies, the humble apparel, the broken or un­ educated speech of their parents. They fear lest their new-found friends in the circle of wealth and supposed “position” will think them strange or ridiculous. God pity the man or woman who is ashamed of a humble or aged father and mother! Joseph, who really had an exalted position gained by merit and by the blessing of God, never forgot his place before God as a son in the family and as a brother. 'Let us -consider him and do likewise. a 4 i i 0 w t F O R .

Five states selected candidates in primary elections last week as Re­ publicans made a clean sweep in Maine, the first state to hold a gen ■ eral election since the war started. Wisconsin, Michigan. Massachn setts. New Jersey and New Hamp­ shire chose candidates for senator­ ial , congressional and state posts, while Democrats in Connecticut held their state nominating conven­ tion. Connecticut Republicans se­ lected candidates. In Maine, Republican candidates for the four major offices at stake defeated Democratic opponents by ratios ranging from two to one, to nearly four to one. Several norm­ ally Democratic communities swung into the Republican column. Senator Wallace H White, Jr., Republican, was re-elected for his third six-year term over Democrat Fulton J. Redman former political columnist. Governor Sumner Sew­ ell led bis Democratic rival, Geo, Washington Lane, J r , by more than a two to-one margin to win bis second term. Mr. Roosevelt says t’nis counrty is facing at least one meatless day 1 week. If meat prices continue to soar skyward we are going to have meatless weeks instead of measles days. The more the government! talks about lowering the price ol living the higher the cost goes. We wonder just how many Davii county men who are in the arm' will be able to vote in the comini election. Tickets will be sent ti some, but manv will be too far a way to even receive their ballots before the election. It would be fine if all the absentee soldier boys could vote, but many of them will be denied this privilege for the du­ ration. The county candidates are bnsy traveling around shaking hands with their friends and enemies and asking for their support in the November election. The politicians have been promised al] the gas they want, but nothing was said about new tires. The candidates who have the best tires will be in posi. tion to do the most campaigning Our thanks are due a certain gentleman who went over th e county telling our friends that Strond couldn't get hold of enough news to print a paper. Why bless vour life brother, we get hold of too much news If we printed all we knew no doubt somebody would be serving time on the cbaing-ng, and there might be new mounds in some of the cemeteries. Maine went overwhelmingly Re publican la s t week. Nothing strange about that. The Winston Salem Io rnal didn’t carry tliis news with big headlines on the front page. We searched all the way through the Journal and found it on a page far removed from page one, with a very small beading. Had Maine gene Democratic big headlines would no doubt* have been used The New Deal newspapers ' in North Carolina who were begging the voters to elect Senator Bob Rey- nolds tour vears ago, are now using much valuable space to tell the voters what a bad fellow Bob is. ■ “ Consistency, tbou art a jewel.” Tbe Record did everything in its’ power to defeat Reynolds four years' ago, and th same crowd who cuss-’ el us then are cussing Bob now.

With the proceeds SIadetS part­ ner, Croger, boys a new Lockheed, whleh Is stolen. When SIade returns from the Anawotto he starts out to And the plane, aided by an esU m o nam ed UniA- aak and by his old prospector friendsr Zeke and M inty. Slade goes to FraynetS cam p, where he learns that Oie m issing plane Is being used by Frayne to take som ething out of the country. Slim Tum - stead, a no-good flyer who has lost his license, Is FraynetS pilot. When Slade attem pts to Investigate the PIanetS car­ go he is knocked unconscious by K arndL He Is “ rescued'* by Tum stead, only to be abandoned by him on a deserted Is­ land. Zeke and MinQr find SladetS plane and stay to guard it. Slade escapes to the m ainland. Um anak is found, exhaust­ ed, by D r. M orlock and his daughter, Lynn, and he tells them he has found the m issing plane. He has also brought a sam ple of the plane's cargo, which turns out to be pitchblende, source of a new kind of power. They decide to take Um anak hom e and then look for Slade. Now continue with the story. CHAPTER XVI Bat taking Umanak heme had its difficulties. “No like devil-bird,” was his stub­ born protest.But the Flying- Padre was insist­ent. And Lynn, after much talk and argument, finally persuaded the old Innuit to climb into the cabin. There he crouched down in a cor­ner, with his hands covering his face. He moaned aloud as the plane took off. He continued to sweat and shiver on the trip back to Iviuk In­ let. And once there, disdaining Lynn’s help, he disembarked with ,unexpected celerity, to be surround­ ed by an admiring group of natives whose exclamations of envy did much to restore the old man’s shat­ tered morale. But Lynn’s father was no longer interested in Umanak. “Our next job,” he said, “is to get in touch with Corporal McGarry at Great Bear. This begins to look like a case where the territorial au­ thorities ought to get busy.”Lynn showed no active interest in that suggestion. ■ "Our first job,” she maintained, “is to find Alan.”Some unlooked-for timbre of de­ termination in her voice brought the Flying Padre’s glance about to her face. “But I feel we ought to swing over to Echo Harbor first. Umanak’s an Eskimo, and you can, of course, dis­ count his story a little. But if he’s found what he says there it ought to be confirmed.” “That can wait,” said Lynn. Lynn studied the country over which the faded blue wings of the Flying Padre’s plane drifted like a shadow. It was country that was new to her, yet in its general as­ pects it was oddly familiar. She sighed as the Flying Padre banked and turned and settled down on a blue-watered lake where the wild fowl scuttled away at their ap­ proach. She remained silent as the pontoons moved slowly in toward a pebbled shore fringed by a scat­ tering of driftwood. “That’s all for today,” said the man at the controls. He sat for a moment in silence. His face looked tired and dispirited. But when he- glanced at Lynn’s equally dispirited face he roused himself. "This is exactly what we’re look­ ing for,” he said with a forced smile. “Firewood waiting for us and a clean shoreline without mos­ quitoes.” “But we haven’t found Alan,” said the still motionless girl. ' “We’ll find him,” was the other’s quietly assured response to that. After getting out his mooring line he rummaged through his cabin equipment for a jointed rod which he kept there. He ignored Lynn’s clouded eyes as she sat watching him make ready his rod and tackle. “There’s fish in these waters,” he announced. “And if you’ll get things ready we’ll have a beauty or two for supper.”“But we haven’t found Alan,” she repeated to herself as she mechani­ cally set about her work.The question of Alan’s where­ abouts was still in her mind as they took off, the next morning, and head­ ed deeper into the land of stunted spruce boles and empty ridges. A sense of timelessness crept through her as they flew on.' Then she saw how the plane was veering east­ ward and her father was leaning for­ ward to study the course of a river that wound sullenly in and out be­ tween the shadowy hills. “That must be the Anawotto,” he called out. She took her turn at studying the terrain over which they were dron­ ing. The Anawotto, to her, looked malignant, like a snake. She found so little that was consoling in its as­ pects that she was glad when they temporarily swerved away from its ever-changing course and headed for a district of bolder ridges interspersed with lakes that lay like pools of silver in the morning sun. Some of them were small and.some of them were large. But the heavier tree-growth along their shores told her they had left the Land of Little Sticks behind them. Some of them, she also saw, were studded with conical small islands. One larger lake held the ghost of an islet in its very center, like a tiny pupil at the center of a wider iris of azure. u; bYARTHUR STRINGER W.N.U.SE&VICE. “It’s you who mustn’t take chances,” she reminded him. -XS- Lynn’s eyes were on that island as they bore down on it. It lost its vagueness, as they drew nearer, and took-on a new irregularity of outline. Then she saw it was not a dot of land. It was a gray-winged plane floating there in its bath of blue. She could feel her heart come up in her throat. “The ghost plane,” she cried aloud. But the Flying Padre, apparently, had also sighted the gray wings against the blue of unruffled north­ ern water. He turned and circled the lake, dropping lower as he looked. “It’s Alan’s plane,” he shouted as his pontoons took the water. “That’s the Snow-Ball Baby.” Lynn could feel her heart pound as Utey drifted nearer. But no sign of life came' from the plane so lazily dragging at its mooring line. “That’s queer,” he observed. “I’ll edge closer and climb aboard.” But an abrupt interruption came to that movement. A rifle barked from the lake bank and a bullet went whining over his head. As he looked up, arrested, a second detonation echoed out over the lake water and a second bullet whined perilously close to his ear. Then a voice, husky but authorita­ tive, called across the water. “Keep off that plane,” it com­ manded, “or I’ll drop you where you stand.” The Flying Padre’s eye, searching the shore, made out an unkempt and ragged old figure with a leveled rifle. On a rode point behind him, a moment later, he detected a sec­ ond bewhiskered old figure, also with a leveled rifle. “Keep down,” was the Padre’s warning cry to the girl in the cabin. “These fools are firing at us.” Then he turned to the threatening figures on the shore. “Stop it, you idiots.” “Not on your life,” was the huski­ ly shouted response. “You back away from that plane and taxi in here or we’ll blow you out o’ the water.” The indignant man of medicine considered that threat. But it failed to stir him into action. “Where's Alan Slade?” he de­ manded. “What’s that to you?” was the shouted response. “We’re friends,” called back the Padre, “who want to find him.” He could see the rifie-barrels, at that, waver and lower. “Then you’d best swing in here and prove it,” was the call came back to him. “It’s all right,” Lynn was saying from the cabin hatch. “They must be Alan’s old miners from the Kasa- kana.”She dropped into the pilot’s seat and started the motor, her still in­ dignant father balanced on one of the floats as she veered about and taxied in to the shore line. There, as he waded ashore, the old man with the rifle regarded him with a skeptical eye. “Now, who’re you?” was that old man’s prompt challenge. “That’s not important,” an­ nounced the ETying Padre. “I’d rather know who you are.” “We’re a couple o’ peace-lovin’ lone-panners who’ve been prospect­ in’ back on the Kasakana. I an­ swer to the name o’ Zeke Pratt. And this is my bunkie, Minty Buck- man.” “Then you know Alan Slade,” cried Lynn. “Sure, we know Alan,” conceded the embattled Zeke. “And that boy’s a bit of all right. But what’s worry- in’ us is why he ain’t back here with his plane. She’s been sittin’ there empty, day after day, and I don’t like the looks o’ things.” “That’s why we’re guardin’ her,” concurred Minty. “From whom?” questioned the Padre. “From them damned swan-hunt- ers who’re up to some devilment round .here we can’t figger out. They’ve got a landin’ dock and a plane o’ their own hidden under a pile o’ brush over the hills there. And when we tried to sleuth ’em out they started slingin’ lead like a bunch of Sioux.” TTie Flying Padre's face remained thoughtful a moment. “Gould you take me'to the camp of these people with the plane?** “Sure,” said Zeke, “if you’re ready to dodge bullets on the way.” “And you have no idea why those people are in this territory?” pur­ sued the Padre. “From the way they’ve been strippin’ and dikin’ and pittin’ along the ridges I figgered out they was after gold. But they ain’t workin’ in the right rock for color.” “Supposing,” said the Padre, “they ,were after pitchblende?” That failed to impress the two old lone-fire prospectors.“There’s pitchblende in this neck o’ the woods all right,” conceded Zeke,' “but what in heck would they be doin’ with it out here?” The Flying Padre had his own ideas about that. A plane ferrying a ton a trip could carry a ponderable amount of uraninite from that un­ inhabited interior to tidewater. “But what good would that do Germany,” asked Lynn, “or any other country on the other side of the world?” From an unmolested port like Echo Harbor, the Padre pointed out, a disguised Japanese whaler or even a furtive Russian freighter could pick up the cargo and quietly carry it on to Yokohama or to Vladivostok, where it could be transshipped and hurried on to the reducing plants north of the Rhine. “This thing goes a trifle wider than you think,” proclaimed the. Padre as his gaze went from the' two empty-eyed old sourdoughs to the disappointingly unresponsive face of his daughter. “But this isn’t helping us to find Alan,” she objected. The Padre studied the deepened hollow in her cheek and the sharp­ened line of the valorously poised chin. “I know it,” he agTeed, “but one 'seems to weave in with the other. And I’m wondering which approach will bring the best results.” “If you take the one we took,” interposed Minty, “you’ll git results all right. You’ll git ’em in the shape o’ four-ounce slugs o’ lead.” “Then we’ll look ’em over from the air first,” said the Flying Padre. He turned to the two ragged figures beside him. “Have you old-timers ever flown?” “Sure,” was the prompt response. But again Lynn interrupted. “That’s what we should both be doing,” she insisted. “While you take Alan’s ship I could take ours and be looking for him.” “Where will you look?” asked her father. “I can’t be sure yet,” was her none too satisfactory answer. “But he wouldn’t be away from his ship without some good reason.” She stared out over the lonely spruce ridges. “And he’d come back to it if he could. That means he’s some­ where out there waiting for us.”. The Padre stood silent a moment. She had, as a rule, been singularly dependable. And the best antidote for anxiety, he had learned, was activity. “All right,” he acceded, “you can’t stand around idle at a time like this, any more than I could. But keep some system in your scout­ ing.” He smiled at her prompt nod of understanding. “And no over­night stuff, remember.” “Not if I can help it” “You’ve got to help it,” said Lynn’s father. “We can’t afford a second searching party in thesa wilds. Mark this as your base and keep a close check on your course. And if the weather gets bad, head back here. One of Uiese men will be keeping a signal-fire going. But the important thing, remember, is to spot your landmarks and know your lakes.” He found something reassuring In the girl’s quiet smile. ‘.'It’s you who mustn’t take chances,” she reminded him. For just a moment the firm young jaw quivered with some darker emo­ tion. “You’re all I’ll have left, if any­thing’s happened to Alan.” The Flying Padre forced a laugh. “I’m still betting on that bush hawk,” he stoutly maintained. “He comes out of too hard a school not to know how to-take care of him­ self. And today, remember, is the tomorrow we worried, about yester day.” /TO BE CONTINUED> ’■ Jliftu t GUam&eM\ H e a p H ig h th e C o o k ie J a r ! (See Recipes Below.)

But you still may have some left, you say? There are several methods to take care of the surplus. First, investigate to see whether your community has one of those, stor­age lockers where you can rent space in the freezing- locker. Cleanliness and. speed are impor­ tant factors in this type of stor­ age. Food must be well select­ ed to warrant the expense of this type of preserving. Drying at home is another ex­ cellent way and one of the oldest methods available. Driers can be bought for a reasonable sum and used to advantage for drying and storing.fruits and vegetables.Other foods such as root vege­ tables, pumpkins and squash have good keeping qualities if stored in their natural State under well regulated temperatures such as in attic or cellar. Dried beans, peas and cured onions may be stored in an attic. Squash and pumpkins require a relatively I warm place with free circulation of air.

THE STORT SO FA R: AIthongb be suspects bint- of being op to something, Alan SIade agrees to fly a “ scientist** nam ed F rsyne and his assistant, Kar- nell, to the Anawotto river In search of the trum peter swan. Frayne pays them enough to enable Crnger, Slade’s partner In N orland Airways, to boy a Lockheed plane. Bot while Slade is away th e plane Is stolen. When he starts out to find It, Slade Is aided by an esH m o nam ed Hm anak and by two old pros­ pectors, Zeke and MInQr. He returns to F n y n e 's cam p, where He learns that F rayne has the Lockheed and U pt an outcast pilot nam ed Slim Tnm stead is flying something out of the country for him . But when Slade attem pts to ex­ am ine the plane*s cargo he Is knocked unconscious by KarneU. Tum stead saves him but abandons Mm later on a de­ serted island. Umanafc, the eskimo, suc­ ceeds In getting a sam ple of Frayne’s cargo, which turns out to be pitchblende, a valuable source of power.. Now Zeke and Minty, who found SIade*s plane and are guarding it, have been Joined by the “ flying Padre*' and Ms daughter, Lynn. Knowing that. Stade would not have left his plane unguarded, they real­ ize that something has happened to Mm. Lynn has gone off alone In her father's plane to find Mm. Now continue with the story. CHAPTER XVII A lowering sun and a quick glance at her gas gauge told Lynn that her cruising had carried her far­ther afield than she had first in­ tended. Tired and dispirited, she set her ship down on a many-armed lake that met a series of lime­ stone ridges on one side and merged into scattered islets and muskeg on the cjjiier. And after eating and not- ing'the thinning light about her she decided that enough flying had been done for one day. So she slept that night in the plane cabin, as she had done often enough before. Her sleep, for all her weari­ ness, was both broken and troubled. When she awakened, in the gray light of morning, it was oddly like .awakening to a call. She sat up and looked about, wondering as to the source of that ghostly summons. She smiled when she heard it re­ peated. For what had come to her over the lake water draped with its morning mists was the echoing call of a trumpeter swan. Lynn quietly opened the cabin- hatch and studied the lake’s surface. A moment later her eyes coasted the nearer shoreline and through the scrub spruce she saw a bear crawl down to the water’s edge and drink. She thought, at first, that it was wounded, its movements were so slow and uncertain. Then the bear, with an eifort, stood up on its hind legs. And the staring girl saw it was not a bear, but a man. Lynn clambered down from the plane and hurried ashore. She coursed over gravel beds and gul­lies and pushed her way through a tangle of briars, her breath coming in shorter and shorter gasps as she ran. She did not call out. But gladness and anxiety swept through her in interlocking waves as she hurried on. For even before she confronted that squatting figure she knew it was Slade. She dropped to her knees, in front of him. "Alan,” she cried. His gaze remained empty and un­ responsive. "It’s not a dream, Alan,” she panted as she crowded closer to him and brushed back the tangle of hair from his face. She could see a little of the vacancy go out of his eyes. "Lynn?” he mumbled, still in­ credulous. “Yes, it’s Lynn," she told him, encircling his ragged body with her arms. “I’ve found yon.” Lynn noticed, for the first time, the gauntness of his tremulous body. She supported' him as he sank to the ground, where he sat staring at his worn and battered flyer’s boots. "I lost my knife,” he muttered. "That doesn’t count now,” she told him. “There’s food and every­ thing we need in the plane. But I’m wondering if you can walk that far.” He laughed again, less harshly. "I guess I could still walk a-hun­ dred miles for a meal,” he said as he once more got to his feet. “It’s what I’ve been doing . . ..walking . . . walking!” She eased him. to the ground, along a slope of moss-covered rock, when she reached the lake, arm where the plane was resting. Then she hurriedly made a fire and brought canned milk and coffee from her cabin stores. He remained as passive as a child in a hospital ward while she tugged and turned and rid him of his tat­ tered clothes. She .bathed his bruised body, noting the cuts and scratches, which she later anointed with witch hazel. Then she dressed him in the Padre’s denim shirt, which was too small for him, and in the Padre’s denim overalls, which were too wide in the waist. I "And now,” she said, “we’ve got to get you looking less like a bear.” He smiled a Uttle as she lathered his face and bent over him with her razor.“Ho w'd you find me?” he asked as the razor blade scraped clean his hollowed cheek. “The swans wakened me,” she said as she scraped. “I might have slept on, if it hadn’t been for them. “Ies, it’s Lynn,” she told him. “I’ve found you.” —17— and not seen you.” He blinked down at the plane wings in the lake cove, surrounded by its sheltering ridges.“What is it?” asked Lynn. “I’ve got to go back,” cried Slade, struggling to his feet.“Back where?” asked Lynn, star­ tled by the look of hate that dark­ ened his face. “To where they’re hiding with that Lockheed. I’ve got to find Tum- stead and Frayne.” His voice shook with passion. “I’ve an, account to settle with them.” He told her, briefly, of his cap­ ture and abduction, of his escape irom the island, of his loss of strength as he tried to fight his way down to the coast. "And if you hadn’t come,” he concluded, “I’d have gone out the way they wanted me to.” “Then you mustn’t go back,” she maintained. “You’ve faced danger enough. We know what those men are now. They’ll stop at nothing. And I don’t want you killed.” He shook off her hand and faced her. “Who knows what those men are?” he demanded. She told him of Umanak’s discov­ ery and of the Flying Padre’s flight that brought him to the two embat­ tled old sourdoughs from the Kasa- kana. Slade’s eyes narrowed as he Iis- tened. “Then my hunch wasn’t wrong,” he cried out as his face darkened with a newer hostility. He looked at the spruce ridges that stretched away to the south. Then he looked at the faded blue wings of the<plane. “Let’s- get going,” he announced with a brusqueness that brought her gaze about to his face. “Not yet,” she said, realizing how remote from her he stood in bis man’s world of conflict. “What is it?” he questioned, puz­ zled by the intentness with which she continued to study him. “If you go back there,” she told him, “it will be like going into bat­ tle. It wiU—” But he cut her short. “It’ll be battle aU right,” was the bark that came from his dry Ups. “We can’t teU what will happen,” she went on. “We can’t be sure of anything. But before we go I want to be sure of one thing.” . “Of what?” he asked, his eyes on the plane. But after another look at his gaunt face, she knew there was no room for life’s subtler hungers in that tired and broken body of his. And pride, coming to her rescue, kept her from answering his question. “Let’s go,” was all she said as she stooped to gather ,up>her scat­ tered possessions. Slade, at the controls, arrowed southward with histhrottle wide open. Lynn, from time id' time, was conscious of the grimness of his face. Yet she smiled as she realized that a part of his grimness was due to the assiduousness with which he was chewing dried beef as he flew. He had been hungry, she re­ membered, for a long time. Then he stopped chewing and scrutinized the country under his floats. The emptier rock ridges had given way to more closely watered terrain, to a region of lakes and streams interspersed with dolorous stretches of muskeg and marshland. “We must be getting there,” he caUed over his shoulder as a still larger lake floated under them and was left behind. “There should be smoke," Lynn told him. “Father said a fire would be kept going.” “Where?” asked Slade. “Where you left your ship,” she explained, already searching the blue-misted ridges before her. But. Slade was the first to catch sight of the far-off plume of. signal- smoke. He could see the gray drift above the furred darkness of the spruce slopes. His jaw hardened as he changed his course a point or two and droned- down on the many­armed lake that more and more took on an aspect of familiarity. His memories of that district clearly were not palatable ones. “Where’s my. plane?” he demand­ ed as they dropped lower. “It should be here,” said Lynn, busy searching the shoreline. But if was not there. AU Slade could see, after drifting into the lake arm between the ridges, was a ragged old figure with a rifle, watch­ ing them as they came. Behind him burned a huge fire of spruce boles, sending a drift of smoke up the air. “It’s Minty,” cried SIade as their pontoons grounded on a gravel bar. Lynn was the first to clamber down and hurry ashore. “Where’s Father?” she questioned. But the ragged old sentinel with the rifle was watching the long- legged figure with the mooring gear in its hand. “So they found you, Lindy,” he exulted. “And you’re back in the nick o’ time, son. For there’s heU let loose in these hills.” “Where’s Father?” persisted Lynn. Minty, finally conscious of her questioning, inspected her with a reproving eye. “He’s out scoutin’ for you, lady. And he sure lost sleep wonderin’ what’d happened to you. • Where’d you find this puddle-jumper?” “That can wait,” said Slade. “What I want is that swan-hunter.” Minty spat and squared his shoul­ ders. “Then you’ve sure come to the right quarters, son,” he asserted. “For he’s barricaded over at that lake end o’ his and he’s sUngin’ lead at anything that comes within half a mile o’ his hide-out.” “And that flyer of his, Tumstead?” questioned Slade. “I ain’t seen no flyer,” answered Minty. “And I ain’t seen no plane come and go. What he’s tryin’ to. do, I’d say, is hold us off until a plane can swing in and pick him up.” Slade turned to his ragged old friend. “Let me have that rifle,” he said. But Minty promptly backed away. “Not on your life,” he retorted. “I got use for this old girl.” He pointed toward the widening vista of muskeg country that stretched away into the, north.“Zeke’s out there stalkin’ that swan-hunter’s side-kick. And I’m goin’ to help him run down that human gorilla.” “You mean Kamell?” cried Slade. “That’s jus’ who I mean, Lindy. The slinkin’ louse tried to outflank us in the night. But Zeke’s got him cut off from his camp-mate out there, dodgin’ lead like a coyote. And I'm goin’ out to back up my bunkie.” Even as be spoke the sound of a repeated rifle shot, thinned by dis­ tance, came to them. “I’ll go with you,” announced Slade. Lynn could see his gaunt face once more darken with hate. Then he turned to her. “Stay here with the plane,” he told hef. He pointed to the fire. “And you’d better keep smoke show­ ing until the Padre- gets- back.” She was able to forgive the per­ emptory note in his voice as die moved closer to him. He stopped, for a moment, to study hey face. But he faiiled to fathom the source of her anxiety. “You’ll be safe in the plane,” he told her. “If you’re in doubt, or there’s any threat of danger, you can take off.” “I wasn’t thinking about myself,” she said with reproving quietness. "Then what’s worrying you?” he asked matter-of-factly. She caught at his sleeve. “I don’t want you to go, Alan.” His eyes remained preoccupied as he freed himself. “Don’t- worry about me,” he said.' “I’ve got to go.” “But what good will it do?” “I don’t know yet,” he retorted. “But Kamell tried to kill me. And I’m going to do what I can to round him up.” She knew enough of frontier life to realize there were times when women figured small in men’s scheme of things. And this was another occasion, she remembered, when there was no room for tender­ ness in life. ' ‘ “All right,” she said, well-schooled in quick decisions from others. “I’ll be here with the plane. When Fa­ther gets back I’ll tell him which way you went.”She wanted to say more, but she knew it was useless.

FAITH IN CHRIST AS OCR PERSONAL SAVIOUR LESSON TEXT—Acts 16:13-15; Romans 5: 1-11.GOLDEN TEXT—Therefore being Justified by-faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 5:1. Salvation through Christ is the way, and the only way, into the Christian life; therefore, there could be no other subject more suitable than that of our lesson to begin our brief series of “Studies in the Christ Life.” Our lesson for today tells us first how one comes into a personal sav­ ing faith, and then gives Paul’s statement of the result of saving faith in the changed life of the be­ liever. I. The Opened Heart (Acts 16: 13-15). Paul and his companions on their important errand for the Master, bearing the news of the gospel, had first lmown His guidance by hin­ drance, by the closed door; and then by the direction of the Spirit into the open door, revealed in the vision of the man of Macedonia. Here in Philippi they found not only an open door, but an open heart, one which the Holy Spirit had made ready for the preaching of the Word of God. “Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (Rom. 10:17). Note that while Lydia was a wom­ an of ability and culture, and a wor­ shiper of God, yet she needed the message of redemption through faith in Christ. I.ydia evidenced the truth of her profession of faith by open testimony and by a desire for fellowship in putting forward the work of God (v. 15) Salvation is by faith apart from wolks, but a saving faith is always one which works. H; The Transformed Life (Rom. 5:1-11). This is one of the great passages of Scripture, rich in doctrinal instruc­tion, presenting through Paul an il­ luminating discussion of justifica­ tion by faith. This lesson affords an opportunity for teachers to learn and present to classes much needed truth along the line of Bible doctrine. There is not enough teaching of this type. Peo­ ple seem to prefer a little devotional study, or the discussion of current events, possibly in the light of prophecy. These are good, but it is of first importance that. Chris­ tians be informed - regarding doc­ trine. We find in this Scripture the glori­ ous transformation of life which comes to the one who takes Christ as Saviour, as we note the seven results of God’s justifying grace. 1. Peace (v. I). The human heart craves spiritual peace and knows that it can1 be found only when sin has been dealt with and put away. For sin cannot be condoned or ig­ nored. There must be justification, and that can come only through Jesus Christ our Lord. 2. Grace (v. 2). A peace witb God brings the peace of God into our hearts. We have that peace be­ cause we have by faith come into the place of God’s favor. No long­ er strangers or outsiders, we have come in (“have access”) to His place of grace and favor. 3. Hope (w . 2b, 5a). Our faith not only brings present peace-, but causes us to see future glory. Such a hope puts us in a right attitude toward God, and the things of life, including tribulations (v. 3), are rightly valued and understood. Even our troubles become evidences of His love in which we may glory. 4. Love (w . 5b-8). God’s love which gave His Son to did- for our sins becomes the “shed abroad” por­ tion of every believer in Him. It was an immeasurably great love, and it all centers in Calvary. 5. Saved From Wrath (v. 9). The wrath of God is minimized or de­ nied in much modern theology, but it is nonetheless a very “real and awful affection of the divine na­ ture.” But the Christ who died for sinners will surely deliver the saints from the wrath of God against sin. 6. Reconciled (v. 10). The death of Christ, which justified man has accepted by faith, brought recon­ ciliation. Atonement had been made for sin, and the One who died is alive again, a living Saviour. 7. Joy (v. 11). And why not? Such a revelation of what our re­ demption includes should make ev­ ery believer in Christ rejoice in God. The One who is the sinner’s judge is the believer’s joy! That is the glorious transformation which takes place when one believes. Some unbeliever who has read these lines thus far must by now be eager to have these things true in his life. Well, why not? “Be­ lieve on the. Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved” (Acts 16:31). Then read again those majestic and joyful words in Romans 5:1: “Therefore being justified by faith, wejiave”—yes, I have “peace with Gotfthrough our Lord Jesus Christ.” O N TH E HOME FRONT RUTH WYETH SPEARS !CRATE WITH ClOTH-TACK P CHECKED SKIRT TO ,-WHITE FRILL EDGES COVER FOR TOP tT lHESE orange crate bedside * tables are useful and easy to make; they are very decorative, too, when fitted out as illustrated.

P A R T O N Consolidated Features.—WNTJ Release. VTEW YORK--Lieut. Gen. Ber- I ' nard Law Montgomery, as com­ mander of Britain’s Eighth army, is in supreme command of Allied H e’s tC alCoolidge’ ^ e \ J £ O f t h e B r itis h testing Nazi ... , , Field Mar-H ig h C om m and shaj Rom. mel’s second major bid for the val­ ley of the Nile. While General Mont­ gomery won the DSO in World War I, he is a newcomer to headlines or citations in this war, having been a divisional commander in Palestine. He is known as a cautions, reticent officer, highly esteemed in Downing street, according to meager accounts available here, for his tact and skill in allaying political unrest in Palestine and in neutralizing among the Arabs the clamor for a Jewish army to fight with the AUies. On November IS of last year, there was an army shakeup in which Gen­ eral Montgomery succeeded Lieut. Col. Bernard C. Paget as chief of the Southeastern command. He is only 55 years old and at the time of this transfer British newspapers noted with satisfaction that the army was calling on its “younger men." In the years between the big wars, he was busy with staff work, said to be one of the keen­ est students of traditional war­ fare, and became a divisional commander with the start of this war. He assumed command of the Eighth army August 18. He is slight of person and sharp- featured, rarely on record with a definite commitment and nev­ er has been known to go off the deep end or get out on a limb. Born the son of the Rt. Rev. H. H. Montgomery, he entered the army in 1908, and fought through World War I as a battalion major. A T THE Versailles Peace confer- ence, a pretty Chinese girl, one of the secretaries of the Chinese delegation, made an earnest plea to A ‘M rs. M inioerf W ho’s C itizen of China and W orld the confer- e n c e. S h e urged it not to award the Province of Shantung to Japan, insisting, almost tearfully, that this would open the way for Japanese aggression that would some day “destroy the peace of the world.” She was then the first and only Chinese woman to hold the de­ gree doctor of laws, and is to­ day Mme. Sourmay Tcheng Wei, wife of China’s new ambassador to Washington, Dr. Wei Tao- ming. Slender, smartly dressed, speaking several languages flu­ ently and correctly, she takes rank with Mme. Chiang Kai- shek and other cultured and brilliant Chinese women who have first come to the attention of this country in the war years. She might be considered a Chinese Mrs. Miniver, who could discuss bombs from first-hand knowledge at an embassy tea party. She not only has dodged'them but has used them. It was in the revolution that' established the Chinese republic that this modish little-lady'Was a- - bomb-toter. Her father was a high official of the Manchu gov­ ernment. She stepped across ancient lines of class and tradi­ tion to fight with the young Chi­ nese, and her special assignment was transporting and distribut­ ing bombs. , Thus aiding old China to blast its way into the modern world, she helped form the new government and then, realizing that she and China needed modern intellectual equipment, she went to Paris and took her law degree at the Sorbonne. This, she later ex­plained, was due to her deep conviction that any enlightened person of today should be a citi­ zen of the world as well as of her own country. She now says she considers herself a citizen of the world. There might be *an idea there—an elite of world citizenry, after the war, recruited by rigorous tests of humane intelligence, forming a nucleus of world co-operation, with­ out recreance to any given sov ereignty. / Again, like the Minivers, Mme. Wei and her husband saw their house / bombed piecemeal, and dodged be­hind trees and rocks in the woods to avoid the machine gun bullets of the Japanese bombers. Her embas­ sy teatime talk about war and peace, if and when given, will not merely be academic. Her husband, who studied law at the University of Paris, and who is a former mayor of Nanking, comes to Washington from Vichy, where he was sent, as ambassador, last year. Mme. Wei speaks English yrith a slight French accent, havingstudied itin Paris. U . S . T r a n s p o r t ‘W a k e f ie ld ’ B u r n s a t S e a m The former luxury liner, Manhattan, now a naval transport ship and renamed the Wakefield, caught Tire and was severely damaged at sea. More than 1,600 passengers and crew members were removed without loss of life by U. S. warships in the convoy. In the upper left the Wakefield is shown at sea, and at right is its commander, H. G. Bradbury. In lower left, passengers and crewmen are shown jammed on rear decks awaiting rescue. Notice the rope nets which were used to climb to the deck of rescue vessel. (Navy photos.) U n s u n g H e r o e s o f M e d ic a l C o r p s P la y I m p o r t a n t R o le \ One of the most ticklish jobs which men of the U. S. army medical corps are called upon to undertake is the removal of wounded men from the inside of tanks. The method of this removal may mean life or death to the casualty. At the left you see trainees from the medical corps field service school at Carlisle, Pa., engaged in the task. The man has been successfully removed through the tank turret and is being placed on a stretcher atop the tank. At right you see a demonstration of a method of transforming a pair of skis into, a smoith-running litter for transporting a wounded man over the snow. Commando Tactics at Harding Field, La. i t Soldiers are undergoing a special training course in Commando tac­ tics at Harding Field, La. Here we see a soldier about to leave the jump­ ing tower and dive into a blazing pool of water. The soldiers are taught to swim with a modified breast stroke, splashing water in front of them to protect them from the flames. The tower from which they leap is 20 feet high, the approximate distance of a transport’s deck from the water. In case of a torpedoing, the soldiers would have to dive into the flaming water with their full packs and swim for shore. Mexico’s President Makes Wartime Report r Gen. Manuel Avila Camacho, president of the United States of Mexico, makes his annual report before the congress of Mexico. This report— his first wartime capitulation of the situation—was particularly impor­ tant and was addressed to the rest of the American continent as well as to Mexico. Thousands of distinguished guests heard him in person. Laugh Is on Axis The Axis boasted that a floating drydock they had sunk at an Egypt­ ian port would never be raised. Capt.

IN “WAKE ISLAND” P ara­ mount has shown what a w ar picture ought to be; the truth was so dram atic that there was no need to dress it up with a fancy plot — and praise goes, to the w riters, W. R. Burnett and Frank Butler, and to Director John Farrow for letting that plot be as slight as possible. Farrow directed it superb­ly, the members of the cast did a memorable job. Pretty good cast, incidentally, including Brian Don- levy, Walter Abel, Robert Preston, Macdonald Carey and Albert Dek- ker. Don’t miss it! A word more about “Wake Island.” It was first shown at the Quantico Marine base, with an audience of 2,000 marines, who cheered it whole­ heartedly. That’s the surest guar­ antee that there’s nothing phoney about this very swell picture. When you see “Seven Days’ Leave,” keep an eye on Marcy Mc­ Guire, if you’re interested in stellar material. She plays a brat sister MARCX McGHIRE of Lucille Balls, with a crush on Victor Mature During filming, her part was “fattened” three times, so that she finally had tvu musical numbers of her own, and a comedy iomance that wasn’t m the original script Iona Reed, who’s a stunt woman as well as Claire Trevor’s stand-m in “The Desperadoes,” has ridden horses that eowpunchers wouldn’t mount, leaped from high cliffs, risked her neck in dozens of ways— but she balked at an assignment the other day. The script called for Claire to smoke a cigar; Iona was told to do it, and said “No.” She can’t even smoke a cigarette! Porter Hall, who plays the thiev­ ing, double-crossing heavy in “The Desperadoes,” has just been made a deacon in the First Presbyterian church of Hollywood. He’s usually cast as a villain, but he’s never owned a gun, since he served in the last war, he doesn’t drink or gam­ ble, he practically never smokes. Yet on the screen he stops at noth- ing. Paramount has a file of what do you suppose? Cobwebs! Due to priorities, it’s impossible now to get the liquid rubber of which movie cobwebs used to be made. The stu­dio has quite a few murder mys­ teries, like "Street of Chance,” com­ ing along. So the prop department got busy, wove cobwebs out of the material on hand, and filed them away for reference. Charles W. Koerner, head of RKO Radio production, has announced that “artistic and prestige films of dubious box-office merit” arc out. WeD, some of those “prestige” films were pretty dull. But a lot of really line and profitable pictures would never have been made if that ruling bad gone through years ago. We’d not have had “The Grapes of Wrath” or “Gone With the Wind” or “Pasteur” or a good many others that didn’t look like money-makers before they were released.— *— Life masks taken directly from the faces of a group of stars, along with fashion sketches, original char­ coal sketches of sets and other ma­ terial used in preparing a film, will comprise a Traveling Educational exhibit soon to be sent on tour by MGM. Frances Parker, lecturer, will accompany it, and it will be displayed at universities, schools civic and educational societies.

CRACKING PLASTER i J ty H n 3 U o m ie * l\ Question: I. have three rooms where the plaster is cracked. In one room it is split at least one-quarter to three-eighths of an inch in width and runs the length of the room. In the other rooms, it is cracked where the walls and ceiling join. What should I use to plaster Uiese cracks so they won’t open again? I have used patching plaster, but it cracks open again. : Answer: If the cracks are wid­ ened and cut back to the lath, then filled with a patching plaster, the repair may be permanent. When cutting out the crack the opening should be wider at the lath, so that the new plaster will lock itself in. Joint cracks in paster might be suc­ cessfully filled by removing the plas­ ter at each side of the crack for a distance of about six inches. A strip of metal lath bent to fit the joint between wall and ceiling is then nailed on and the comer re- piastered. Cracking Walls Q.: Our frame house, brown and Colonial yellow, is on a tile founda­ tion. Why should the walls crack? We repair the plaster and redeco­ rate, but the walls crack again in the same places. What color should the foundation be painted? Should the blocks be outlined with color to imitate mortar?A.: Continued cracking of the plaster in the same places undoubt­edly is due to settlement of the foun­ dation. The footing may not be broad and strong enough for the density of the earth that supports it; the house may be built on filled-in land which is not yet fully settled. You will do well to have the foun­ dation examined by a competent mason or builder. Finish the foun­ dation blocks with cement paint in natural color. Outlining of the blocks will not be necessary. Ctdd Floor.Q.: I have a small drug store with no basement, which I heat with an oil burner. The cement floor is always cold, no matter how warm the room is. How can this be Corw rected? Could the cold air be car­ ried off with a chute going through the roof from the floor level? A.: Your best method would be to cover the present floor with water­proof felt stuck down with asphalt or tar, 'and with a wood floor laid on top. The new floor boards need not be nailed; they can be stuck down with “mastic,” so that the head room will not be decreased. Your idea for getting rid of the cold air from the floor would not work. Sewer Check. Q.: In order to prevent the back­ ing up of the sewer in my basement during heavy rains, I plan to install a standpipe open at the top, and about four feet high. I am wonder­ ing if this would have the effect of placing a strain or pressure on the underground part of the sewer. A.: Instead of a standpipe, ask your plumber about a check-valve, which is intended for that particu­ lar purpose. It permits the normal flow of water from your drain pipes to the sewer, but prevents the flow of water in the opposite direction. Paint for a Laundry. Q.: What kind of paint should I use for my laundry, which has a brick wall and a wooden partition? The paint should be inexpensive but good. A.: You can use cement paint for the masonry wall. This can be had in colors as well as in white, and is intended for just such a pur­pose as yours. You could use casein paint for the wooden partition. This is less expensive than oil paint, can also be had in colors, and can later be used as a base for oil paint, if desired.Plywood Floor.Q.: My kitchen floor is plywood. The builder says it was well nailed, but to me it seems loose, with a vibration and knock. Should the floor have been glued down?A.: Plywood is not satisfactory as a flooring material, for the sur­ face is likely to scuff and splinter with use. Gluing should not be nec­ essary. It should be quite enough to nail the flooring solidly to the beams. Plywood is an excellent base for linoleum, and if properly laid there should be no trouble. Kitchen Wallpaper. Q.: .Can ordinary wallpaper with a white background be so treated as to be practical for use in a kitchen without having the background dis­ color?A.: Ordinary varnish will have a yellowish effect on the whites, but there are varieties of varnish that are nearly clear. Also large paint stores should know of a kind of liquid wax intended for the protec­ tion of wallpaper, which is practi­ cally colorless. RetnnIdittg a Chimney.Q.: Can condensation Jbe prevent­ ed in a chimney that is used for gas burning? Bricks are old and soft, and at the top are cnmibling away from being soaked continually. I intend to rebuild from the attii floor up, next summer. What is the best method?A.: The chimney should be re­built from below the level of the attic floor. Use hard-burned bricks and include a good quality fireclay flue lining. Inform the; gas' compiany of what you intend to do, and get their advice. F e a s t for F a ll D a y s — B a k e d 'B e a n s (See Becipes Below.) P u llin g P u r s e S trin g s Today, let’s talk about budgets. Pood budgets in particular, because they will be a major item in your life the next few months as prices slowly edge upwards, as the days slip into fall and winter and the summer bargains in foods be­ come fewer and you have to do more juggling with figures to give your, family the right food, at the best possible prices. If you are, Mrs. Average America, you will be more nutrition conscious this year than last, too. This will be not. only because nutrition news has sprinted into the limelight, but because the demands of wartime liv­ing upon energy have become so | great that you will have to have right foods to do your most and your best. But, how can budgeting help you to serve "right” meals, you ask. That’s simple. Buy the right foods with your dollars and you can’t help serving meals that are correctly bal­anced. First, divide the food dollar into fifths. One-fifth, or 20 cents, should go for vegetables and fruits. Use the next fifth for milk and cheese. The third of the fifths goes for the basis of your important meals— meats, eggs and fish. Another fifth will be set aside for breads and cereals, while the very last 20 cents is allowed for acces­ sory items such as butter, fats, sug­ ar, tea, coffee and spices. General Guide. ' The 20-cent rule is not a hard and fast rule. It is only a general guide because prices of the different groups of food vary from season to season; from section to section. .Use your judgment in spending. Perhaps you get milk from the milkman, vegetables from the ped­ dler who comes. to your back door three times a week, eggs from the farm, and meat from a fa­ vorite butcher. Or, you may get all your food from one place.There is no one way to shop. Pick out what the best way is from the facilities available, but be sure to investigate those fa­ cilities before you fall into one pat­ tern. Shopping Carefully. Conservation’s an important note in these times. And it’s mighty im­portant in this fascinating business of stocking up the pantry. If you plan meals for, say three days, or better still, a week in advance, you will not be trotting up to the store twice every day, or balling up your grocer whose time is at a premium and whose delivery facilities have been cut in the midst of cake bak­ ing to tell him you simply must have vanilla. Make out lists, and then shop . . . for everything you need at one time.When the snap of autumn gets into the air, use pumpkin, squash and Concord grapes. When the drifts of snow pile lightly against your door or the weather gets at least uncom­ fortably cold, use root vegetables and those canned goods in Sie can­ ning . cupboard. & spring, straw­berries, asparagus, and broilers should grace your menu.

It’s more than economy, it’s food at its best) Cheese Bargains. IUght in line with buying what is most economical at present are the bargains you can find in cheese. Cheese is much more than some­ thing you put between slices of bread or the golden orange wedge you serve with pie or crackers. It is the most economical source of protein and as such can be used as an excellent meat substitute. Easily digestible and easily blend­ ing with almost every kind of food, it makes even the simplest dish a distinctive one because of the flavor it imparts to it. And remember, you’ll get not only protein when you use it, but those other essential diet necessities like-phosphorus,-calcium, iron, and vitamins B, D and G. - As American as apple pie, are the American cheese stocks which we now have on hand. You’ll be kind to your budget if you make use of some of these ideas: •Cheese and Baked Beans.

A SEtU ESO F 'SPECIAL ARTICLES I BYTHC LEADING w a r Correspondewts Y Senator in Egypt B y Heury Cabot lodge, Jr. (W N U F ttturt-T brough special arrangement with Ametieaa Magazine) It would be a blessing if every American could visit one of our battle fronts. After you’ve been in action, you clearly see the mortal peril in which America stands to­ day. And you shed, once and for all, the comfortable illusions of invinci­bility which threaten, more than Nazi agents, to sabotage our war ef­ fort. With other tank men, I was under fire on the Libyan front recently. We were on the receiving end of practically everything they had to throw at us. We were shelled, bombed and machine-gunned. We took it, but we gave it back, too. Our American tanks, manned by American crews, swung into action alongside their British Allies. When the smoke cleared away, they had knocked out at least eight German tanks. Our boys were quick, cagey, cou­ rageous, and they did justice to the magnificent training they had re­ ceived back in the States. But we all acquired a healthy re-' spect for the Nazi fighting machine. We saw it in action, saw it sweep back British forces, saw it operate with Vaitchlike precision and effec­ tive leadership. We Can Lose This War. My own experiences convinced me that we can lose this war—unless we Americans gear our whole na­ tion to the monumental task of win­ ning. Make no mistake. We have in­ herited World War n. We are the ones who will win it or lose it. We must be careful not to indulge In a dangerous over-emphasis on our weapons of war. Some of us seem to feel that our guns, tanks and planes are so infinitely superior to those of the enemy that they can almost win battles by themselves. Nobody has a greater respect than I for American ingenuity and pro­ ductive genius. But the grim fact, as I learned in-Libya, is that the Nazis have some pretty fine equip­ ment themselves, and they use it like professional soldiers.On the Libyan desert, as the Nazis smashed forward under Rommel, I studied the magnificent organiza­ tion, drive and timing of their fight­ing machine. Most of my observa­ tions are military secrets, which I reported to the army authorities and to the senate military affairs com­ mittee. But I can say openly that their equipment was on a par with this aggressiveness. Even' where our equipment was better, the margin wasn’t enough to allow us any complacency. A Word About Onr Tanks. Take our famous M-3 tanks, for example. They’re the medium job that the British call General Grants. Well, the armor plate of these ma­chines is top-rank. Although it will be pierced by the German 88s, it will' turn back the German tank guns. And its own 77 mm. isn’t outranged by any German tank gun. In our new M-4 tanks, already in production, the gun'is in the turret. The silhouette is lower, making; it harder to hit. And the hull is weld­ ed instead of riveted, eliminating the possible danger Of rivets buckling or popping out under the impact of shells. A man would have to be blind not to see that the German soldiers were superbly equipped for the peculiar rigors of desert fighting. German civilians have had to content them­ selves with ersatz materials, but not their fighting men. German engineers carried extra parts for British and American tanks, and they were past masters at “cannibalizing”—tearing apart a captured tank and using its innards to repair another. When one of our machines fell into their hands, it often turned up later on their side. Germans Confident of Victory. One afternoon I talked with a Ger­ man prisoner who was calmly con­ fident that his side would win. Not because he felt that Hitler was an infallible fuehrer, or because he re­ garded his generals as superior to the British. His optimism seemed to him extremely realistic. “We will win,” he said, “because our equip­ ment and organization are better.” Today, that boy’s words ring in my ears whenever I hear an Amer­ ican make the same observation. Personally, my bet is that every firm that is manufacturing equip­ ment for our soldiers will keep abreast or ahead of the Axis. But it isn’t safe to count on any margin of superiority to hand us victory on a silver platter. America has always been a land of big figures. We can produce, and always have produced, more of ev­ erything than anybody else in the world. But large numbers alone don’t win wars.
