C One of the most familiar themes of the Bible is that of the prodigal son who asked his father for bis in­ heritance that be might go away from home, be his owu man, do as he pleased and have a good time. At least that is what we gather from the parable. The son went forth, spent his substance in riot­ ous living, and at last come to dire poverty and want. He made a wreck of himself. This is what happens when one goes foith in life to have his own way, leaving God out of his life and disobeying the teaching of father and mother. Al though this parable was given in regard to a wayward son, showing the remorseful consequences of go­ ing astray, and revealing that his only way of recovery was by re turning to his father’s house a» a penitent, seeking mercy and par­ don; but what about the prodigal girl? Is it not a fact that girls go astray as weli as boys? Perhaps the blessed Master meant this as a lesson and warning to both boys and girls, and to all those who go forih to have their own way in sin Some time ago a very sad letter same to me from one of my read' ers, telling of the waywardness of her daughter. This g’rl left home to get a job in one of our cities. She found work, but she also found bad company. This accounts for multitudes of prodigal sons and daughters. The girl bad a good home, a good father and mother, and bad been taught right; but af­ ter leaving home she seemed to throw off all restraint, forget her patents, with the desire to try the evil ways of society. She sought pleasure with tbe gay, worldly, sensual, regardless of' the heart- achea she brought to a precious old mother and a good father. AU we could do to hdo tbe parents was to write them to take it to God in earnest prayer, promising that we would also pray with tLem I do not know anything further in re. gard to the outcome. If tbe girl is still going astray it is over the prayeia of a precious mother, over the prayers of her father, too, no doubt, aad over our prayers, How awful bell will be to the prodigals who go down to this awful place over the earnest prayers of their loved ones, and over the prayers of ministers of the Gospel and Chris­ tian friends and neighbors! O prodigal girl, return! No doubt there awaits you a hearty welcome iu the home. Return to that precious heartbroken mother, that dear father, that good home. Return, above all, to Jesus. You have strayed away from Him, and this is the most serious. Return. This is life’s better way. GOP Farm Program The farm plank adopted bv the Republican Convention on June 27 has been hailed as the “best yet” by national farm leaders, who play­ ed a part in helping the Resolu­ tions Committee draft tbe Repub lican Platform for 1944. Leaders of all national farm organizations were consulted before the farm plank was written. Beginning with a salute to A merican farmers, tbeir wives and families for their magnificent job of wartime production and tbeir contribution to the war effort, the Republican farm plank joints out that farmers have plaved a prime part iu making victory possible This has been accomplished, the Republicans say, in spite of ‘"a bungled and inexcusable machinery program and confused, unreliable, impractical price and production administration,” a conclusion with which most farmers will agree readily. The Republicans take an unequi­ vocal stand against the "scarcity program” followed so long under Henry A. Wallace and his succes sors in the New Deal Department of Agriculture Abundant production is tbe best security against inflation,” toe Re­ publican farm plank asserts. “‘Gov. ernmental policies In war and in peace must be practical and efficient with freedom from regimentation by an impractical Washington bu­ reaucracy in order to assure inde. pendence of oparation and bounti­ ful production, tail and equitable market prices for farm products, and a sound program for conser vation and use of our soil and na­ tural resources.” To show the farmer what prac­ tical thinking has been done by Re­ publicans to carry out sucb a pro­ gram, the farm plank made ten specific proposals, all of which are worth Teading and re-reading. "1. A Department of Agricul­ ture under practial and experienced administration free from regimental and confusing government manipu lation and control of farm programs. "2. An American market price to the American farmers and the protection of such price by means of support prices, commodity loans, or a combination thereof, together with such other economic means as well assure an iucome to agricul­ ture that is fair aud equitable in comparison with labor, business and industry. We oppose subsidies as a substitude for fair markets. ”3. Disposition of surplus war commodities in an orderly manner without destoying markets or con tinued production and without be­ nefit to speculative profiteers. "4. The control and disposition of future surpluses by means of (a) new uses developed through con slant research; (b) vigorous (de velopment of foreign markets; (c) efficient domestic distribution to meet all domestic requirements, and (d) arrangements which will en able farmers to make necessary ad justments in production of any giv, en basic crop only if domestic sur. pluses should become abnormal and exceed manageable proportions. ” 5 Intensified research to dis. cover new crops, and new and pro­ fitable uses for existing crops. *'6. Support of the principle of bona fide farmers-owned and farm­ er operated cooperatives •‘7. Consolidation of all govern­ ment farm credit under a non-parti­ san board. '*8. To make life more attrac. tive on th e family-type farm through development of rural roads, sound exteo-ions of rural exectri fication service to the farm, and elimination of basic evils of ten­ ancy wherever they exist. Sit-Down Strikes In 1894 Eugene V. Debs, the noted Socialist and Revolutionist of that period, blockaded the railroads, In Chicago and announced that the train would not be allowed to move. In other words, he pulled a great sit-down strike in Chicago. That great Democrat, Gover Cleveland, was President at the time. Cleveland believed in tbe Constitution of the United States. He believed in maintaining the ma­ jesty of the law. He believed in in government by law and not gov. ernment by executive degree. He announced to tbe world that those trains were carrying Uniicd States mail and that they were going to move. He stated that if it took the whole United States Army to ]deliver a post card in Chicago, tbe post card was going through. Compare that, if you will, with the resolution which we had in Detroit under the New Deal when tbe CIO took over the automobile plants; when they destroyed the property of’ the automobile com. panies; when they sabotaged the buildings; when tbe refused to al low even the owners of the business on the property or to enter these establishments—What did tbe New Deal do? Well, if you remember the news­ paper accounts of the situation, you will recall that after this bad all been going on about a month the New Deal's Secretary of Labor announced that she had been study­ ing matter to reach a conclusion as to whether or not these sit-down strikes represented a violation of the law. The very attitude of the Federal government to serve and to assist the CIO in its unlawful acts. Compare the New Deal, if you will, with the attitude taker by Calvin Coolidge when be was Gov­ ernor ot Massachusetts, wbere the policemen of tbe citv of Boston sought to deprive that city of po­ lice and fire protection by going on strike. The then Governor of Mas­ sachusetts announced in clear and unmistakable terms the facts that no group anywhere at any time had a right to strike against the govern­ ment.—0 ’Danul News. Junkets According to a UP dispatch* President Roosevelt has covered in international travel alone, suf. ficient mileage to carry him to the moon, and start him back, since bis inauguration in 1933. The President has traveled 306. 265 miles in journeys abroad. Tbe mean distance to the moon is only 238,857 miles.

Asked at a conference In Bridge­ port, Conn., if be could assurance of release of some manpower and materials immediately for produc­ tion of peacetime goods, he re. plied, according to Associated Press report: “ I can’t assure anything. In fact. I’ll add that no man in Washing­ ton can assure anything with the numbet of agencies set up there.” Tbus tbe New Deal’s inefficient conduct of the war is stressed by the Second Top New Dealer! W ar Takes A Holiday Despite the fact th e Dewey- Bricker campaign bas just started there are indications of jitters in the Democratic high command. Apparently word has arrived from the hinterland that the fourth term candidate lacks the vote appeal be once possessed and that tbe politi­ cal horizon is none too rosy. And sucb alarming reports from tbe grass roots called for a series of serious hnddles where tbe situation bad to be canvassed and decisions made, tbe first of which took Mr. Roosevelt out of his role of self- styled Commander.in-Chief of the American people at least temporar­ ily and made him a politician seek ing to remain in office. We now learn, as a result ot the latest decision, that contrary to Mr. Roosevelt’s earlier statement that the war requires his full attention and tnerefore politics would be soft pedaled, be intends to address a la­ bor organization on September 23, and that He quite franklv will make a political address. Another reason aside from the adverse reports from the states that may have forced him into the open a$ a man campaigning for office is tbe extremely bad reaction to his speeches made recently from tbe San Diego Naval Base and a ship- yard at Bremerton, Washington. The New Deal high command dis­ covered much to its chagrin, that the nonpolitical label placed on those speeches just couldn’t be put over on the voters. “ Tax and Tax and Tax” Cold blooded statistics reveal that President Roosevelt bas col­ lected in taxes alone enough money to finance the Government from 1789 down to the day be took of­ fice—not only the peacetime ex­ penditure of government, but tbe entire costs of World War I, the Spanisb-American War, the Civil War, tbe Mexican War, the War of 1812, and the Revolutionary War.

No Continuation Of Regimentation On what ground the officials of the OPA would assume that price fixinir and rationing should be con­ tinued after the war is difficult to understand. C ester A. Bowles1 OPA administrator, on a swing a- round the Pacific Coast, is reported as saying at Seattle that rationing and price restrictions will not give way all at once, nor will they cease with the end of the war against Germany. Others have said that rationing will probably continue for at IeaBt two years after the war. Examining their reasoning as far as it is revealed, we find it based on tbe time-worn theory of a managed economy which sets aside the law of supply and demand Rationing was devised as a means of distributing fairly among the people limited sup­ plies of food Price controls were established to keep war time prices from hitting the skiea. The OPA now wants to continue both of these activities after the war, but there is a grave question whether this should be done. It is questionable indeed whether the principle of a managed economy iB sound, for the managers are con­ tinually upsetting the economic ap­ ple cart, causing artificial shortages or market gluts, and doing injury to various groups of producers. The people stand for a good deal of this, necessarily, in war tim e,. but there is a question whether the controls and the regimentation will be so readily accepted in peace. Mr. Bowles contends for continua­ tion of price fixing to prevent a post­ war inflationary period, until sup­ ply catches up with demand. Thus he would fix an indefinite period of time during which th e controls should be continued, and that may mean forever, plus a day. because those who favor the regimentation of prices and people on the excuse of preventing inflation will never lack for emergencies, real or fancied, to support their contention that con­ trols should be retained. Whatever the OPA group may de­ sire, and whatever pressure they may bring for a continuation of ra­ tioning and price controls, there is at least one ray of hope for a return to normal conditions without artificial restraints and limitations. The New Deal theory of planned economy may have to give way after the elec­ tion to the better philosophy of the economy of plenty, and the Republi­ cans who will then be in power are committed to the discontinuation of rationing and price controls as soon as possible.—Oregon Daily Courier.

E a r l y a n d P r o p e r M a r k e t i n g U r g e d Prompt Cattle Sale Urged as Necessity Farm ers are urged to give some consideration to their cattle m arket­ ing plans for the rem ainder of the year. Because of possible m arket gluts, M. P. Mitchell, at Purdue uni­ versity, calls to their attention the M lowing points: 1. Low grade beef cattle m ay be sent to m arket soon, before western cattle begin to move in volume. This would include cull aged cows of both the beef and dairy types, graz­ ing cattle that are not to be grain fed nor kept for breeding, and, hi some cases, surplus breeding cattle that are now on farm s in ex­ cess of the farm ’s norm al carrying capacity. 2. Although beef cattle prices ander the controls now in force m ay act behave normally, there are good reasons for expecting prices of most UTBdes of cattle, except the better r o e s =* Texas Steers for M arket grades of grain fed cattle, to work to lower levels. This is especially true at the tim e that m arkets reach a glutted condition, in late ram m er and autumn. 3. Cattle now on grain feed grefoably will continue in a strong relative price position for the re­ m ainder of this year. However, costs *4 gains in the feed lot are high sdative to m arket values. There is, therefore, not a great deal of in­ ducement for feeders to hold such cattle for further price advances. Grain fed cattle, because of their scarcity, undoubtedly will be less af­ fected by m arket gluts than the plainer grades of cattle on the m ar- le t. Grain fed cattle will continue to strong demand. Agriculture In the News Cotton Goes to War Approximately 11,000 different Stems m ade of cotton are helping Sse V . S. arm y and navy fight. Cot­ ton is used for gun camouflage and shelters, truck tarpaulins, muni­ tions, all types of uniforms includ- fag ski and air suits, blankets, sleep- tug bags, parachutes for dropping supplies by air, tents, cord in tires fer _ m ilitary vehicles, hammocks, fishing nets, helm et linings, plane parts, self-sealing gasoline tanks for- planes, life rafts, and scores of oth­ er item s. A m ajor part of the total national cotton production is currently going to equip Uncle S am ’s fighting men. Although some low grade cotton can be used, m ost of th e a r tic le s mentioned re- .quire a high grade. Beports on p ro d u ctio n , supply and carry-over indicate that fee United States is producing m ore eotton than is needed in grades be-' Um “middling,” and needs to build 1 9 the production of the better grades. The cotton crop last year totaled 11,478,000 bales from 21,874,000 acres with fee yield averaging -252 pounds pest acre. An average cow gives 4,700 pounds Cf m ilk a year which is enough to furnish four m en in uniform ,their daily allotm ent of milk, butter, theese and evaporated milk. Parasites Controlled Fhenothiazine, synthetic coal-tar chem ical, in less than five years has won first place among drugs used fer removing internal parasites from farm anim als. Experim ental work has proved that this rem edy is ef­ fective against six species of worm parasites of sheep and goats, four species in catUe, two in swine, one lit poultry, and numerous round­ worm s of horses. In addition it is partially effective against several other parasites of livestock. % M eat Point Pointers . . .'R ice Balls in Mushroom Sauce (See Becipes Below) Flavorful M eats You’ll be using m ore of the lower grades of beef as tim e goes by. Most of the AA and A, top grades of beef, are going to arm ed forces -and utili­ ty or lower grade beef will be m ore available for civilian consumption. That calls for pulling out Uie old- fashioned, flavorful recipes that will really m ake this beef taste good. We used to do, and can still do it as long as we pull the bunny of inge­ nuity out of the proverbial hat, or cookbook, as the case m ay be. Inexpensive cuts of m eat can be m ade tender by several methods. Bound steak can be pounded with a sm all ham m er or m allet to break down the tissues, then braised with liquids and sea­ sonings to savory goodness. Stew­ ing is another good method for cooking this type of m eat. Adding tom ato juice, spices, mushroom soup and other liquids gives peak flavor.

JESUS’ PBOGBAM FOB M EETING LIFE’S FBOBLEMS LESSON TEXT-Matthew 4:1-4: 6:31-34; Luke 4:16-21. GOLDEN TEXT-Man shall not Uve by bread alone, but by every word that pro- ceedeth out of the mouth of God.—Mat­thew 4:4. Problem s, sorrows, needs, anxi­ eties—how they press in on man­ kind from every direction. What is he to do about them? He cannot m eet them in his own strength. They worry him alm ost to the point of distraction. W hat shall he do? There is just one answer, and it is blessedly simple and completely satisfying. Take your burdens to the Lord and leave them there! Cast all your care upon Him, for He careth for you (I Pet. 5:7). From the teachings of Jesus our lesson tells us why and how we fhay do this. L et us not m iss its glorious —and convicting—m essage. I. We Can Overcome Temptation Through Christ M att. (4:1-4). Temptation is the common lot of all m ankind (I Cor. 10:13). The strongest and most noble of men are subject to it. Angels were tem pted, and our scripture reveals that even Jesus was tem pted. We recognize that Jesus was tem pted as the Mes­ siah (w . 3, 6) and as one without sin (Heb. 4:15), but it is also true that He was tem pted in all points as we are, apart from sin, and that we m ay learn from His tem ptation how we m ay m eet and be the vic­ tors over tem ptation. We learn of our Lord that tem pta­ tions m ay be victoriously over-, come— ; 1. By the right use of Scripture.' If Jesus needed that weapon, how can we do without it? But how can we use Scripture if we do not study it and hide it in our hearts? 2. By dependence on God. Every Scripture used by Jesus honored God. We cannot fight Satan in our own strength. To attem pt to do so is to fail utterly. The real victory for the Christian is to bring Satan back to the cross where Christ won a decisive victory over him. 3. By denouncing Satan. Jesus sent him on his way. We m ay do the. sam e in Jesus’ nam e. - It is always a serious error to try to argue with Satan or to engage in any discus­ sion with him. Let us m eet him with Scripture and say “Get thee hence.” H. We Can Learn to T rust God for our Daily Needs (M att. 6:31-34). Some want to be rich. Their folly is m ade clear in verses 19-24. But then there are some who while not wanting to be rich, are in con­ stant anxiety about food and raim ent for the morrow. W hat is the answer of the L o rd . Jesus? Consider the birds. They are not able to work, nor are they able to pray, but God feeds them . Con­ sider the glory of fee flowers of the fields, for not even a king can dress him self in such beauty. "Are ye not m uch better than they?” (v. 26). “As far as known, no bird ever tried to build m ore nests than its neighbors; no fox ever fretted be­ cause it had only one hole in which to hide; no squirrel ever died of anxiety lest he should not lay up enough nuts for two winters instead of one; and no dog ever lost any sleep over the fact that he did not have enough bones laid aside for his declining years” (Public Health service). Proper forethought is good and right, for we are intelligent beings, but anxiety about our daily needs is always dishonoring to God. Yes, says someone that’s all very well, but how about the future? Well, why should we fret about that? It is in God’s hands, and even if it were In our hands, w hat could we do about it? Even tomorrow, with its needs and its blessings, with its joy and its sorrows, is not yet here, and when it does come, there will be God’s gracious provision for each passing hour. H I. We Can Follow Christ in Sac­ rificial Service (Luke 4:16-21). Let us be clear at once that we cannot do w hat Christ did, for He is the Son of God. He had a special m inistry to perform as the Messiah. But we m ay learn much from this story. Jesus began His m inistry among His own people even though He knew of their unbelief. He used the Word of God as the background for His calling. He recognized fee special need of the poor and fee suf­ fering, and especially of those who were bruised and broken by sin. In all these things we m ay follow His example. L et us declare the truth to those nearest to us, even if they do reject it. Let us look to God’s Word for our call and our commis­ sion-different from that of Jesus, but nevertheless from God and for His glory. Then, too, let us learn of Him that we are to serve those who are most needy and possibly neglected, serv­ ing their physical needs, but above all bringing to them the light of God’s redeem ing grace. H ere is light from the Lord on our problems of sin, sorrow, supply and service.

Davie Schools Show Loss In Enrollm ent Schools of Davie County open with a loss of 107 children in school overthe en­ rollment of the close of the school term last year according to a statement from the office of the Davie County Board of Education. Of tbe 107 loss, eight are in the High Scbool and 99 arejin tbe elemen­ tary scboul. Tbe looses ars divided equally between the colored and tbe white schools and it is thought that most of the absen­ tees are now doing farm work and will re­ port to school in a few days. The schools are now being operated on a short day. opening at 8:30 in the morn­ ing and closing at I p. m., to assist the farmers in harvesting thair crops. How­ ever, it is expected that tbe schools can go un full schedule in a few days and that schools can open later in the morning. The 8:30 opening bout seems to necessi­ tate tbe school buses picking up tbe first children too early in the u:orntng. AU bus routes have been checked by a repre sentative of tbe State Board of Education and the routes have been laid ont accord ing to tbe requirements of the State and the Office of Defense Transportatian of tha Federal Government Under tbe new state regulations each bus driver is . re­ quired to operate on a regular schedule and to pick up the sbildren at a regular time each mornind. In case a bus driver doeB not operate on schedule parents are urged to report tbe driver to tbe principal of tbe school immediately. Id comparison with tbe othei counties it appears that Davie County Schools have reached a very big percentage of enroll ment for tbe first week and the co-opera- tion of tbe parents in Davie County is verv greatly appreciated. Parents are ur ged to keep tbe children in school every day as there is a very close relationship between school attendance and school progress. Pupils who are not regular in attendance do not receive full beneSt of their school training. REA Co-Op. Announce Plans, 5th A nniversary Plans for immediate postwar resump­ tion of its construction program to provide electric service to an estimated 787 farms and other rural consumers in this erea are being formulated by tbe Davie Electric Membership Corporation, Mocksville, ac cording to William J Jones, manager. The cooperative this week enters its sixth vear of operations. "We have many potential users of elec­ tricity along our lines, patiently waiting got the necessary materials to be released so tbat their connections can be complet­ ed,'' Mr. Jones, said. "Fanners within reach of our existing lines whose applica tion for service are approved by the Coun­ ty USDA Conservatiun Committee under the War Production Board’s regulations permitting connecting of farms able to use electricity effectively in livestock, dairy or poultry proultry pruduction, will be con­ nected as rapidly as possible.'* Ur. Jones said tbat 60 farms have been cunuected to the Cooperative’s lines Bince January 1943, in order to encourage need­ ed for production. A recent survey show­ ed tbat these 60 farms familias are using 27 water pumps. 4 milking machines, 23 chick brooders, and many other appliances tbat help to increase production or re­ place manual labor. "In addition to the communities we now serve we expect to be able to extend our lines into many communities in Davie, Ire­ dell. Yadkin, Rowan. Wilkes, Alexander and Cntawba counties, “Mr. Jones, said. *‘We consider a postwar program involving construction of 234 miles of line to serve 787 new members is entirely possible for our system." Form erD avie BoyKilIed friends in Mocksville were saddened last Thursday by news of the death of Pfc. Norris G Ijames, who was killed in Saipin Island “Sunny" Ijames as he was known by bis friends, is a son of Mrs. Clyde Ijames. of Charlotte, and spent most of his life in Mocksville.

AU patrons of tbe school are urged to be present. Davie Soldier W rites Camp Shelby. Miss, Sept. 10th. Dear Mr Fink:—I wish I could have at tended the meetings at my old home ' church. Center, during the revival. I was 1 compelled to leave tor camp just before I the meetings began. Since I came back j to camp I feel rather lonesome. I miss my wife and babv so much. Our baby said "Daddy” for me while I was at home, and I guess I just realized tbat I had a son looking for daddy to return wben the war is over. I love both my child and my wife so much I write to them every day when it is so I can. I also receive a let­ ter from my wife almost every day. We are having to work pretty hard, but I don’t mind it at all, if it will get the, war over quicker. Mest all of the boys I was with three months ago are overseas now. I enjoy reading the little paper you are sending me very much, and I know the other fellows enjoy reading it also, The prayers that come from back borne do tbe boys in service more good than any­ thing else. There are a lot of boys across the seas who never get a chance to go to preach­ ing, and it takes the prayers of the Chris- tiuns back home to keep them going. I long for the time to come when I can re­ turn bome to my wife and child and my chu.-cb, where I can attend the services every Sunday as I used to do. I wish so much tbat all the pecple around Center would attend church every Sunday. It would make me feel better if they did. This makes 14 letters I have written to­ day and I am pretty tired, so I will ring off and get some sleep. Tell all the folks hello for me. SGT. J.

CONGRESSMEN TO LONDON Without any publicity, the British government has quietly moved to improve British good will by arrang­ ing air transportation for- six con­ gressmen to London. They will in­ spect the damage done by the robot blitz and take side trips into France. The British embassy did not actu­ ally invite the congressmen to come to England, but made a point of let­ ting three Republicans and three Democrats know that seats on Brit­ ish planes leaving New York for London were available. First pair to go were Representa­ tives James Richards, South Caro­ lina Democrat, and Karl Mundt, South Dakota Republican. They were followed by Democratic Con­ gressman Brooks Hays of Arkansas and Republican Walter Judd of Min­ nesota. The latter trip may be sig­ nificant since it occurred only a few days after these two had introduced their resolution calling for bi-parti­ san consideration of the peace terms by this country. The last pair includes Republican Walt Horan of Washington and Dem­ ocrat Chet Holiiield of California. Holifield, incidentally, was planning a quick trip overseas in order to check on some Iend-Iease matters for the house Democratic leader­ ship. Each pair consists of one Rh- publican and one Democrat, with the British determined to do all they can to prevent inter-party strife in the U.S.A. from interfering with the peace conference. The congressmen were told by the British: “We have already been host to several American scientists and educators for brief trips across, and we don’t like to discriminate against congressmen.”* * * ALLIED SKI TROOPS For the first time in the war, Ca­ nadian and American ski troops ar« due to see the sort of action they were trained for. The first special service force, trained in mountain warfare at Hel­ ena, Mont., and in Alaska and the Aleutians, is now in southern France with the forces of General Patch. A thrust across the Maritime Alps into northern Italy will give them their first actual skiing action. This spe­ cial service force includes both Ca­ nadians and Americans, and will probably come up against German rear-guard units as the Allied ar­ mies chase the Nazis toward the Brenner pass.* * * ELECTION IN BRITAIN British government leaders aren’t saying anything about it, but Roose­ velt has been tipped off by Churcliill that immediately after the fall of Germany a general election will be held in England. In fact, Churchill’s Conservative party leaders have already sent in­ structions down to their borough leaders to begin organizing for a national election. Churchill’s party strategists have already had conferences with lead­ ers of the Labor party and have sought their support for a continua­ tion of a future coalition govern­ ment. The Labor leaders of the Churchill cabinet, however, have said no. They believe that after the war, Labor should go on its own. Conservative leaders, however, figure that the rank and file of the Labor party will not follow their leaders but, instead, will follow Churchill. Churchill’s move in calling the general- election immediately after the armistice is considered very shrewd timing. Today he is popu­ lar in England. A few months from now he may not be. The British prime minister will stand on his war record, and his cooperation with Roosevelt will not be played down as one reason why he should be re­ turned to power. It is expected that the Conservative party will win without too much difficulty.* * » NAZIS IN SPAIN Once again Nazi troops are mak­ ing for Spanish soil. Members of the army which got its first taste of war seven years ago by putting Franco in Madrid, today are steal­ ing through the French countryside below Bordeaux to be interned in Spain rather than be captured by the Fighting French. This was why the Spanish ambassador in Wash­ ington last week issued his state­ ment barring Nazi exiles. However, a real test of U. S.-Span- ish policy is in the making. Some Nazi military men are already in Spain, plus French collaborationists who will later be charged with war crimes against France. It will be up to U .. S. Ambassador Carlton Hayes, apologist for the Franco gov­ ernment, to deal with them. * * * CAPITAL CHAFF C. GI Joes are plenty peeved over the army’s mustering-out pay pro­ gram. Canada gives its discharged men $100 for clothing, plus $9 for each month’s service. «. GI Joes are writing the war de­ partment that most men will need an entirely new wardrobe costing their total musteririg-out pay. C Officers receive extra pay for all the time-off they are entitled to when they leave the service. . . . GIs want to draw their furlough pay when they leave the army too.

TX7HO is the top fighter in the ’ world, pound for pound? This query covers many years, in addi­ tion to the present calendar. On the human side our selection has always been Harry Greb—a 160- pound whirlw ind who in ring contests or training periods practically wrecked such stars as Gene Tunney1 Jack Demp­ sey, Tom Gibbons and Jack Dillon. I am referring to the Greb that had two eyes, when he first wrecked Tun- ney and Gibbons and when he com­ pletely bewildered Jack Dempsey with his speed in a training spot. My friend Frank Bncb goes on be­ yond Greb or Stan Ketchel, Joe Gans or the pick of the human lot. Buck nominates the Wolverine—a 35 or 40-pound terror from Michigan and a few other northern midwest- ern states. “ The Wolverine, pound for pound, is the world’s gam est and greatest fighter,” Buck says. “The Badger is tough, but not quite that tough. You know even a 250-pound bear doesn’t match any part of the Wolverine—who is not only fast and strong, but who likes to fight. I can’t think of any animal who won’t give the Wolverine the right of way. What he could do to a 100-pound police dog wouldn’t even be close. I can’t think of a dog that a 35-pound Wolverine wouldn’t wreck in a few minutes.” Our knowledge of Wolverines had been largely limited to Michigan football teams. These also haven’t been any too soft. But they haven’t quite been able to match their name­ sakes since a team known as Minne­ sota’s Gophers have annoyed them no little in recent years. In animal parlance the Gopher is no great killer. But he is something different on a football field. I asked Dr. Buck just why a Wol­ verine is so tough. “Every part of him is tough,” Frank said, "includ­ ing teeth, claws, and especially heart.” Wodd’s Best Fighter I tried to pin Buck down to nam­ ing the world’s greatest fighting ani­ mal. This naturally leaves the human out unless you give him a gun. The human is a rather puny animal when he isn’t armed. Twenty or thirty animals would outclass him on even terms. Among the best of the animal breed Mr. Buck includes the ele­ phant, the gorilla, the tiger, the lion, the leopard, the grizzly and the big python. “ The elephant is just too big,” be says. “ But one of the greatest fights ever known would be between a tiger or a lion thrown against the grizzly bear. They would be well- m atched in weight. The grizzly is m uch stronger than either a tiger or a lion. He isn’t as quick but he has a thick, protecting coating of hair around the throat. But either a tiger or a lion would have to get him in a hurry or lose the decision. And I don’t think either could get him in a burry.” “What about the grizzly, lion or tiger against a big python?” I asked. Buck had brought back a python that measured 29 feet. “You may remember,” he said, “that in the python-tiger fight pic­ ture I made, the python was on the winning side. I wouldn’t want to bet on any animal against a big python. I saw one kill a leopard in just a few seconds.” Gorillas Tough, Too Then we began talking about Gar- gantua, the big circus gorilla. How would he come out against any­ thing except an elephant? Mr. Buck admitted that Gargan- tua would be something to stop. Big, powerful, fast and vicious—some 600 pounds of dynamite — Gargantua would be no pushover against tiger, lion or grizzly. We are offering these vital statis­ tics to those who keep asking how Louis and Dempsey, or how Tunney and Corbett would come out in a swinging joust. Our answer is that Louis, Demp­ sey, Tunney and Corbett would be completely outclassed by any griz­ zly, lion, tiger, gorilla, python or king cobra in any hand-to-hand or fang-to-fang collision. Gene Tunney still thinks that a good fighter can lick a gorilla. I don’t think Greb, Tunney, Dempsey and Louis together could handle Gargantua. • • • Best Football Teams “Which section of the country on a general average produces the stronger football teams?” This is one of the favorite queries you get from service mail where men from every section are thrown together around the world. This in­ cludes the East, the Midwest, the South, the Southwest, and the Far West. My guess would be the Midwest, Which includes the Big Nine and Kotre Damfe CLASSIFIED D E P A R T M E N T HELP WANTED • Persons now engaged in essential industry w ill not apply without state­ ment of availability from tbeir local United States Employment Service.

Zorie's Aunt nannah endeavors to keep Zorle with her. but Admiral Duncan wins. The handsome stranger, who proves to be Steve Duncan, brother of Paul Dun* can, her sweetheart, picks up her suit* cases and deposits them on the steamer, Samoa. During the night the steamer pulls away from the San Francisco pier, for Hawaii. CHAPTER VI He was talking about Uluwehi as {f it were a shrine. Paul had told her very little about Uluwehi. He had told her it was a show place and she had somehow got the im­ pression that there was a big red brick house with white columns, closely resembling the Ellen Had­ den Memorial Library, but set in vast formal lawns. She recalled that the full name of it was Uluwehi E Kai, which meant a profusion of growing things by the sea. “The house is built in a cove,” Steve was saying, “with the moun­ tains coming down sheer on each side. The front yard is a big lawn shaded by palms. Beyond them is a reach of golden sand and the Pa­ cific which shades off from jade- green to bright blue and deep pur­ ple. Behind the house is a hillside covered with purple bougainvillea it some seasons, and yellow trum­ pet flowers at others.” “Yes.” Zorie was really thinking more about Steve’s deep, caressing voice than she was about what he was saying. It was a rich voice. She was seeing him, leaning against a palm tree with a guitar and sing­ ing old Hawaiian songs to her. His father, she knew, had been a United States naval observer with the British fleet. He had gone down with the Invincible in the Ba'ttle of Jutland. “Uiuwehi’s fallen on bad ways since grandmother’s death,” he was saying. “I hope you’ll take hold and bring the old place back to life. We used to have wonderful times -there—luaus and dances and big beach parties. You know, you re­ mind me of her pictures when she ;vas a girl. She had the same se­ rene way about her you have. It’s very comforting to a man. We need someone like you, Zorie. I hope you’ll like us.” The music had stopped. He stepped away from her, holding his hand lightly under her elbow, to bal­ ance her against the slight roll of the ship. Miss Lanning saw her, stared at her and smiled coolly; then she saw Steve and her smile promptly be­ came a bright, living thing. She waved at Steve. She car- roled: “Stevie!” Zorie's heart was climbing into her throat. For a moment she thought she would faint. Her one wish was to be out of this room. Steve was dancing over to them, and they were dancing over to meet Steve. The four of them formed a 3lowly shuffling huddle in the middle of the floor. The man with Miss Lanning was staring at Zorie with half-lidded eyes. His smile made his eyes even more sinister. “I heard you were aboard,” MiSs Lanning said, and her dark eyes and her smile and her voice all seemed to sparkle. Her partner said, in a suave, cul­ tured voice: “It’s awfully nice to see you again, Stephen.” “Miss Corey,” Steve was saying. “Miss Lanning—Winthrop Lanning.” “We know each other,” Amber Lanning said with no enthusiasm. “We have the same cabin.” “I think we almost met earlier," Winthrop Lanning said. He was still staring at Zorie. It was his eyes, under their partly lowered lids, that Zorie would re­ member—so cold, so knowing, so questing that they frightened her with their betrayal of the life he had led. Their voices hardly reached her brain. All that she could cope with just then was the stupendous fact that Steve knew these people, that he was on the friendliest of terms with them. She wondered if she could have been mistaken—if this dark-faced man with his evil eyes was the man she had seen in the green sedan. But it was only a passing doubt. She was certain he was. And Am­ ber Lanning was his niece. The ship rolled. Steve and Zorie were carried away from the Lan- nings. Zorie felt suffocated.' Steve was looking at her with grave-solici­ tude. v “Do you feel the motion?”“Will—will you take me out of here?” she answered. Steve took her firmly by the elbow. She glanced up at him as they left the floor. He looked as if nothing had happened or was happening. _ They crossed the deck to the rail and leaned on it. Steve was study­ ing her face with the tender solici­ tude of a lover. The breeze was cool on her hot cheeks. A moon, a little past full, was rising off the stern. “In a moment," Steve said in his deep musical voice, “it will lay a sil­ ver carpet all the way across the ocean for your especial benefit.” She wanted to question him about the Lannings If she didn’t do it now, she’d never have the courage again. But whatever it was that made her so meek held her back as it always did. Steve was watching her with con­ cern. His blue eyes were dark with sympathy. “What’s the matter, <jorie?” His voice was so tender that for‘ a moment she was almost fure he had said, not Zorie, but darling.” • • •” she began, and faltered. Who are the Lannings?” ‘‘They're really very pathetic peo­ ple, he said, “and putting up a very brave front. They are sad, muddled people. Refugees—he from Paris, she from Martinique. They’re homeless and almost broke. It’s really a sad story. Winthrop’s fa­ ther was British, but his mother was French, and he grew up in France. When the Germans moved in, he lost everything—barely escaped with his life.” Steve was speaking with deep feel­ ing, as if he sincerely meant what he was saying, but Zorie did not believe him. She did not believe the Lannings were pathetic people. Cer- Ttae breeze was cool on her cheeks. A moon was rising off the stem. tainly, Amber wasn’t pathetic. She was a selfish, cocksure, arrogant girl. Winthrop Lanning was suave and cold and dangerous. They did not have the look of sad, muddled people. She wondered who the man was who had been standing outside her stateroom door lighting a cigarette —the short, powerful-looking, slop­ ing shouldered man she had seen at the bar with Mr. Lanning. “Amber,” Steve was saying, “has spent most of her life in Marti­ nique. She was driven out when Martinique went to Vichy.” “I suppose,” Zorie said, trying to control the quaver in her voice, “they’re old friends of yours.” “In a way. I’m awfully sorry for them.” - “Where did you meet them?” “I met him in Lisbon. He had been hiding with friends in Cannes and he’d just got across the border. I met Amber when we reached New York. She’d just got out of Marti­ nique with her skin. She’s a charm­ ing person, isn’t she?” “Isn’t she?” Zorie echoed. The Lannings, it wasn’t hard to guess, were also Nazis. Why were they on this ship, going to Ha­ waii? But why, most important of all, was Steve being so solicitous, so kind, so sweet to her? Amber Lanning, smiling and beau­ tiful, was coming across the deck toward them.“Stevie!” she cried gayly. ‘‘When are you going to ask me for a dance?” That was the way, Zorie thought enviously, to do things. Be gay. Be sure. Be bold. If she lived to be a hundred, she’d never have the courage to walk'up to a man in that cocksure way and ask him for a dance. She could, if she wished, make things difficult for this lovely, arrogant young woman. She could assert her proprietorship, and Steve would have to decline, as gracefully as possible, to dance with Amber Lanning.“H you,” Miss Lanning said gayly to Zorie, ‘‘don’t mind my stealing him for a moment.” “Oh, no,” Zorie said effusively. “I have some things to attend to. I’ll see you later, Steve.”“Thank you,” Steve said, but he said it hesitantly, and he was watch­ ing her with tender solicitude, al­ most with reproach, as if he re­ gretted her not asserting her rights. When, she wondered bitterly, as they wsilked away, would this stop? Where would it end? When would she bestir herself and stop letting everyone use her for a doormat? Her meekness was nothing but a habit into which she had fallen years ago. The people who took advan­ tage of it—the Professor Folsomes, the Mrs. Folsomes, the Aunt Han­ nahs, the Pauls, the Admiral Dun­ cans—had no respect for her. Her meekness, Zorie realized, was a fault that, if not corrected would ruin her life. Paul treated her a9 he did only because she invited it. He hadn’t treated her that way at first. He had been as solicitous, as admiring as Steve was now. Little by little, because she never protest­ ed, Paul had acquired this unfair attitude. The blame wasn’t Paul’s. If Steve knew her long enough, he, too, would slip into the same atti­ tude. Zorie was so furious at herself she was almost crying. She did not hear Paul coming along the deck. She wasn’t aware of him until he stopped beside her and spoke. “My God,” he said. “Look at you! Just look at you! I’ve never seen you so radiant since I’ve known you! Or your eyes so starry!” She started to smile. It was the first time in ages that Paul had said such nice things to her. Then she saw his expression. He was white with rage. His green eyes were so dark they looked black. And his mouth was thin and hard. He stared at her. “I was afraid it might happen, but I never dreamed it would happen so fast!’" “W-what?” Zorie stammered. Something was terribly wrong, but she could not guess what it was. “No,” PaiU said in a brittle voice. “You can’t realize how obvious it is —how you’ve gone overboard for him!” “Who?” Zorie wailed. “Who!” he mocked her. He looked angry enough to strike her. “All right!” he snapped. “Let me tell you a- couple of things I neglected to mention about this big glamorous humbug you’ve gone overboard for! I thought you might take my word for it! I thought you might use some discretion! You’ve asked for it—and here it is!” He paused a moment. She had never before seen Paul really lose his temper. He could hardly articu­ late, he was so furious. “My lovely big brother is nothing less than a Nazi spy! If he isn’t now, he certainly has been! He’s been a traitor to his own country! He was kicked out of the United States Navy for insubordination. He went skulk­ ing and sulking off to Germany and turned Nazi! But even they got fed up with him! Why do you suppose they kicked him out of Germany?” Paid hesitated. Zorie saw sweat running down his face,“Because he was having an affair with one of Goering’s girl friends!” “Paul!" Zorie protested. “It’s all true! And that’s the kind of man you prefer to me!” He wheeled away and strode down the deck. Zorie turned and looked at the moon, which had unrolled a silver carpet all the way across the ocean for her especial benefit. How much of what Paul had said was true she could not know. She didn’t want to believe any of it. But one of his accusations, she realized, was true. In spite of what she knew —over the protests of all her in­ stincts—she had fallen in love with Steve.Zorie returned to her stateroom to find that someone had gone through her trunk! She had • disarranged things a little when she had dressed, but she hadn’t left them like this. Things that had been on the bottom were now on the top. Everything in the trunk was topsy-turvy. Amber Lanning was evidently de­ termined to leave no stone unturned. On top of the jumble of the trunk’s contents was the carbon of a thesis Zorie had copied several years ago. It was entitled: A Critical Survey of the Retooling of the Waffenfabrik Krupp Plant for Increased Wartime Production. Zorie had saved it because she had thought, for a Whilaj that sh* was in love with the young man who had written it. He had been *n en­ gineering exchange student—a Ba* varian, blue-eyed and flaxen-haired, who had, after his experiences in the new Germany, loved everything American. He was an ardent anti- Nazi.The stateroom door seemed to burst open. Amber Lanning came in, humming loudly. Zorie closed her eyes, played possum. "Asleep?” Miss Lanning cried. Zorie said nothing and kept her eyes shut. Miss Lanning slammed the door, switched on the light. Humming, occasionally breaking into clear so­ prano words, she undressed, hung up her things, turned out the light, and went to bed. While resenting the very presence of this rude, selfish girl in the same room, Zorie fell asleep. She was awakened by a persistent irregular thumping against the foot of her bed. . A bar of moonlight was shining through each of the portholes. The door of the closet at the foot of her bed was open. Miss Lanning had evidently left it unlatched, and each time the ship rolled, the door swung and thumped the end of Zorie’s bed. She got up and closed it. She tried it. The latch held. She went back to bed and to sleep. She was awakened sometime later by the same thumping. It was hard for her to realize that Miss Lanning—“She’s a charming person, isn’t die? Lots of fun,” Steve had said—would de­ liberately get up and open that door to spoil her sleep. But Zorie was rapidly learning that Miss Lanning, as well as being charming and lots of fun, was a female fiend of infinite resources and with the unswerving determination of a pile-driver.(TO BE CONTINUED) SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS P r e t t y a n d C o m f o r ta b le F r o c k A S m a r t C o lla r le s s C a r d ig a n m A A S PRETTY as they come—and as comfortable as any yet de­ signed, a frock with a wide-shoul­ dered effect which is achieved by the subtle placing of the two rows of frill which ends neatly under a velvet bow at the waistline.* * • Pattern No. 8683 is in sizes 12. 14, 16, 18 and 20.

In The Navy Now Broken Prom ise No. 5— Back in 1937. Oct. 3, at Havre, M ont., Franklin D. Roose­ velt. the great prom iser, got on to the subject of the budget. H e said: "A s a m atter of fact, the Trea­ sury is all right and we are balanc ing the budget — you needn’t w orry.” H as the soothsayer kept that promise? T bat promise rolled off an oily tongue th at gushes pro­ mises never to be kept? Accord­ ing to the annual statem ents of the Treasury D eportm ent net receipts of the U. S Governm ent in 1937 were more than five billion dollars and expenditures exceeded eight billion. Reduced to exact figures the T reasury took in $40.93 and spent $62.69 per capital. And never did M r. Roosevelt balance the bndget in any one of his peace term years. H e taxed and taxed and speot and spent. Pollyanna Economists I care cot how m any Pollyanna economists testify to the contrary, we cannot spend ourselves into prosperity. It has been tried for a thousand years, including the last twelve in the U nited States, and it has always failed. One m ay as well try to drink him self sober. W e cannot indefinitely pile up ob­ ligations w ithout putting the kiss of death upon our economic fu­ ture.” — Senator Vandenberg (R ep ) of M ichigan. W m k ROBERT WADE EDWARDS, S 1*C. son of Mr. and Mrs. R. S, Edwards, of near ShefiBeId. entered the U. S. Navy on April 17, 1944. He completed his basic training at Camp Peary, Va.. and is now stationed at Albany, California. From George To Frank­ lin George W ashington’s eight-year adm inistration of the Federal gov­ ernm ent cost the people of the then infant republic of America $34,085,- 506. Th:.t is about as much as the pre­ sent Federal governm ent -govern­ m ent spends every ten hours. T his is only one revelation of a survey which has been made by Phelps Adams, of T he New York Sun, showing the receipts, disburse­ ments, surpluses or deficits oi all the Presidents of the United States from the day of George W ashing­ ton to the continuing day of F rank­ lin D. Roosevelt. Four vears of the Civil war, dur­ ing Lincoln’s adm inistration, brought the expenditures of the Union above the billion dollar mark for the first tim e T he official out­ lay for that period w as$3,352,380.- 410—about as m uch as is now spent every 40 days. G rant’s eight-year regim e got in to the two billi n dollar brackets without a war, spending more than McKiuIey did in four years with the Spanish-Am erican francaf, Theodore Roosevelt doubled G rant with $4,655,450,515; but W oodrow W ilson was the first to clim b into the rally big money. H is eight-year adm inistration, with the first W orld W ar. cost to tax payers $46,938,260,143. Calvin Coolldge’s six peace boom years cost nearly half as m uch as W orld W ar I —$18,585,549,136 to be be exact. But he left a surplus of #5.374.392.763. H oover kept up the spending pace to the tune of $15,490,476,656 and w i.h a four billion-dollar defi­ cit raised the accumlated public debt to $22,538,672 164. But Franklin D. Roosevelt’s eight peace tim e depression years topped W ilson’s and Coolidge’s combined outlays, w ith H arding’s throw n in for good measure. E x- pendltures for those eight years 1933 to 1941, aggreg. ted $67,518,- 746 013. T hat was more than the combined expenditures of the first 27 Presidents. Counting war-time expenditures from 1942 through 1945 (budget estim ate), the present adminstions speut in 144 years And its deficit of $259,717,695 689 is 10 times as m uch as the aggregate deficits of a l l preceding adm inistrations.— Charlotte Observer. Yon keep baying WAk BONDS Trum an'A sks Life Tevm For F .D .R . Union Republican Senator H arrv Trum an—the bi- j product of the vilest political ma chine this nation has ever known, so rotten in fact that its directing geni­ us-, Boss Pendergast, was sent to pri­ son by the Federal governm ent— wants Franklin D. Roosevelt to be given a life term in the W hite Honse. Speaking at Lamar, Missouri, re- c.-' tly on the. occasion of his accept­ ance of the vice presidential nomina- t 11, handed to him by city boss ma­ chines and crooked underworid dic­ tators, Truman launched out on a new course, He did not appeal fer the re election of Roosevelt as Com- mander-in Chief, as the President ' itnself does, but on the basis he is the only man fit to write the peace terms and keep the world at peace in the coming vears. Truman savs "peace is a continu­ ing process,” therefore he wouid keep Roosevelt in the W hite House for the remainder of ten days for that "continuing process.” We were interested in w hat The W ashington Post, administration m orning daily at the national capital, had to say to Trnm an’s weird, suggestions in his speech The Post says: There was a new "line” in Senat­ ors Trum an’s speech at Lam ar. Mo. The President- is appealing for re- election as Coinmander-in-Chief of the armed forces. But the war is rapidly coming to an end. In Europe we are close to the mopping-up stage and most ,experts feels that the con­ quest of Japan will not be long de­ layed after Germany’s Surrender. But, he says, even if the war is over soon, that would be but a couple of steps am ounting only to "th e com­ pletion of one turn in a long road.” The road, of course is marked peace­ making. And. says Mr. Trum an, peace is "a continuing process, al ready years under wav. still years in prospect.” The candidate then goes to show that only a man with Mr. Roosevelt’s experience in the presidential chair can possibly guide the peace-making. W hat this boils down to is that Mr. Roosevelt should be given a life term in the W hite House. Peace, to be sure is a continum—till war breaks out again. But if we were to accept Mr. Trum an’s syllogism, we should have lost faith in our republican in­ stitutions. Our foaefathers were not men of such little faith. They periodically rejected Presidents who had piled up experience in the White House and turned tc men without it. The political health of this country rests upon this rotation of office of its elective officials. That is not to say that change for the sake of change is necessarily salutary. But it does mean that only at the peril of the American system could the people adm it that any official is in­ dispensable. Mr. Roosevelt is aware that is so. In 1933 hedec.ared that "there is no indispensable m an,” If we were at the beginning of the war, Senator Trum an’s plea m ight sound more plausible. But the end of the war i3 the end of a very de­ finite stage in our national affairs. A fter the last war that British took that stand. Mrs Lloyd George, a brilliant war leader, wanted to re main at the helm of state as peace leader, but he rejected. The fact is that, unless we accept the Democra­ tic thesis that all life is a crisis and change is therefore noxious, war leadership and peace leadership have nothing in common. In peace the need is for statesmanship which is concerned with wise and efficient and economical governm ent at home as well as with security abroad. Senator Trum an knows that the American people want this brand of statesm anship in their next Chief Executive. Accordingly he seeks to build up Mr. Roosevelt not so much as a great Commander-in-Chief but as a man so full of vision and wis­ dom that the American future will be assured. The picture is gicssyly overdrawn. The Republicans will have no difficulty in rebutting the argum ent which gives him credit for the Selective Service Act. The gene­ sis for this example of preparedness Like P art of Record Overseas. Sept.'6. 1944. Dear Mr. Stroud:—I have been reading your paper and like it very much, that is m ost of it. Those ar­ ticles of politics and things of tha’ sort I pass up, because at the pres en t they don’t interest me. I am neither for or against either partv for that m atter. I did read some­ thing however that I didn’t like and that was the article entitled: "To wives and parents of soldiers ” I hate very much that The Record is in such a bad way for money. When you get to hunting for dough so bad that you run one paper with this ar­ ticle after the other, I know that the cost of your paper is so great that you couldn’t afford a couple copies for a sailor or soldier or any member of the armed forces overseas. Your paper and the Cooleemee pa­ per are about the only source o f news we boys over here get except through our letters from families there. I hope my dad hurries to the office and gives you his last dollar he’s got if he has anv left after buy­ ing W ar Ronds, for I know you need it. I would hate to miss a copy, for there are some things I w ant to read in the next issues. AU in all it makeB me happy to read the paper. P ut more news in it, and it will1 be one grand paper. I will close for this tim e. Always a faithful reader, VICTOR C. BOWLES. Dear Victor: We were glad to get your letter. We like to hear from the boys who are fighting our bat­ tles for us. No. Victor, it is not the dollar we w ant so bad. W e are try­ ing to keep out of jail by observing the newspaper postal laws and regu­ lations. We could afford a couple of copies of the paper for the overseas boys, but when it comes to several hundred copies, it takes paper. If we were trying to make money out of the boys in service we would charge them $2.50 per year instead of only $1. We are sending papers overseas for less than cost. It is not the money we want so bad as it is for our Davie boys to get their borne town paper. THE EDITOR B aptist Convention Moves D ate Up a W eek T he date for the m eeting of the N orth Carolina Baptist State Con- yention, scheduled to meet in Char­ lotte November 21-23, has been changed to Nov. 14-16, M. A. H uggins, general secretary, said. was congressional and Republican. The quarantine speech of 1937—the tim ing of which we declared at the time to have been perfect—was, to be sure, an essay in statesmanship. But it was not follawed up. Tbe President, when he found a strong isolationist opposition on his hands, gave the ball to that opposition Oor prew ar policy is exemplified more by the President’s signature of the Neutrality Act than by the cla- ion call of of 1937. The fact is that onlv by a stretch of imagination can Mr. Roosevelt’s record in prewar years be regarded as an insurance of statesm anship in the postwar world.

G ovenim ent Runs Cot­ ton Business T he W ar Food A dm inistrator, M arvin Jones, announces that the Federal governm ent will buy direct from farm ers all of their 1944 crop at his own parity prices for which a schedule of loans has been ar­ ranged. T hat wouid appear to be Inno­ cent enough. But this obviously m eans that the governm ent proposes to fix th e price for raw cotton, buy it from the producer, sell it to the mill 01 m erchant at the sam e price at which it was first bought, m aking the cotton exchanges of no further use and elim inating also thousands of middlemen who have been en­ gaged in the private busiuess of cotton m erchandizing. T rade factors believe that this ac­ tion will lead to a disruption of tne spot m akets and work as evilly to. ward a curtailm ent of cotton mill activities. T he policy announced by Mr. Jones is characterized by T he N ew York Tim es as being "bad” and "th e latest illustration of the m an. uer in which governm ent interven. tion and control, once it begins, does not halt but keeps extending itself.” T hat newspaper further com­ m ents that "th e iiouy of the A d- m inistration cotton policy is that it is working to destroy the very pro­ ducers in whose supposed interest it was adopted. W hile the situation is being obscured by war demand and by governm ent subsidies, A- merican cotton is being priced out of the world m arket and even out ot the domestic m arket. One false step has led to another false step. W ith Mr Jones' latest action the whole private m arket system In cot­ ton seems on the verge of being de­ stroyed.” And so goes the New Deal in its historic policy of invading and con­ trolling the realm of private enter­ prise, both as it relates to the pro. duction, distribution and consum p. tion of goods.—Charlotte Observer.

DoansP ills isSes*** I wIMlIfW m ** W Soup M akes the Main Dish of This Meal (See Recipes Below) Soup Suppers When cooler weather arrives, there’s nothing better than a hot bowlful of soup to satisfy the appe­ tite. If the soup is hearty enough, it can even make the main dish for the meal. Chowders, bean soup, pea soups flavored with a ham hock or ham bone, cream soups rich and satis­ fying—all these can provide appe­ tite satisfaction for hearty appetites. Make enough of the soup while you’re about it to last for several meals. That will solve quickie lunch problems or provide the hot food for many a school lunch box. If soup is the mainstay of the meal, build a salad and a substan­ tial dessert around it. AU are easy fixing, and won’t take too much time on a busy wash day or a time when you need to do something equally important. An old-fashioned beef and vegeta­ ble chowder, fortified additionally by the perfect food, milk, is excellent eating: tBeef-Vegetable Chowder V i pound round steak 2 tablespoons shortening 2 teaspoons salt 1A teaspoon pepper 3 cups boiling water 2 tablespoons chopped onion I cup cubed potatoes 1 cup cubed carrots 2 tablespoons flour I quart milk I cup cooked or canned peas Cut the meat in % inch cubes and fry in shortening until brown, stir­ ring frequently. Add I teaspoon salt and the pep­ per, water and onion. Cover and J cook slowly for one hour. Add potatoes, remaining salt, and car­ rots and cook 20 minutes longer. Mix flour with 2 tablespoons milk to a paste. Add remaining milk and pour into the meat and vege­ table 'mixture. Cook, stirring con­ stantly until thickened. . Add peas. Serve very hot. If you can’t get along without the taste of potatoes for a meal, you’ll enjoy this recipe: Potato Chowder (Serves 6) 3 large potatoes, pared and diced , 1 cup onions, sliced thin 2 % cups water 2 teaspoons salt V* teaspoon pepper Lynn Says: Soup Fixings: Save all celery leaves, bits of parsley and spin­ ach leaves and use them when making soup to give good, all­ vegetable flavor. Brown meat first when making soup so that it will have.good, brown color. Be sure that it is well seasoned before serving. When meat is cut up into small pieces, soup making time can be cut down considerably. Use leftover meat bones from roast and chicken, as a base for making soup. When the butcher trims off bones and pieces of meat from the roast, make sure he gives them to you. They can be used for soup. Toasted rye bread, rusk, rolls are -.good accompaniments for soup. Salad suggestions for soup main dishes: fresh fruit salad,.cheese- sprinkled toast, shredded carrots with chopped greens'with chopped hard - cooked eggs and bacon dressing, molded grapefruit and carrot salad, sliced tomatoes on crisp lettuce or other greens and fruily cole slaw.

JESUS’ UNDERSTANDING OF MAN LESSON TEXT-M atthew 12:9-21. GOLDEN TEXT—And needed not that any should testily of man; for he knew what was In man.—John 2:25. What is a man worth? That de­ pends on your point of view. In a museum stands a collection of small jars containing minerals, water, etc., which make up the body of a man, and which are valued at less than a dollar. But there is more to man than his body. And that “more”—intellectual and spiritual—is what determines his real value. Jesus understood (yes, and now He understands) man, and places a high valuation on him. That is worth knowing in a world where the price of humanity is often figured on the basis of his usefulness in war­ fare or the factory. Jesus really understands man. He knows his I. Need (v. 9). The first thing Jesus saw in the synagogue was not the leaders, or the beautifully appareled rich, or the learned scribes. He saw a man with a withered hand, one who needed His help. The enemies of Christ complimented Him by expecting Him to see the crippled one—and they “watched him” (Mark 3:2), for it was the Sabbath. Do we see the real need of human­ ity? Does it speak to us and prompt us to helpful action? If not, are we like our Lord and Master? n. Value (w. 10-12). They who would not hesitate to save a sheep in distress on the Sab­ bath did not want the man to re­ceive help. Thus they put property above the person of man, and showed their low valuation of man.The dignity of man’s personality, the fact that he is made in the like­ ness and image of God, the great potentialities which exist in every man—all these should urge upon the Christian church the need of a new and higher estimate of the worth of a man—or a boy or a girl.' Let us look at them with God’s eyes, and seek to win them for Him. ID. Faith (v. 13). No doubt this man had tried count­ less times to straighten out that withered arm. It was the very thing he most wanted to do, but it was quite impossible. Is Jesus then charging him with the impossible, asking him to do what cannot be done?No, for He saw in this man the desire to be whole and faith in God’s ability to make him whole. Dr. G. Campbell Morgan puts it well: “We turn from a contempla­ tion of a withered hand and look at the face of Jesus. The moment we do this, we know that the command is possible because He commands it, however impossible it may ap­ pear. To look into that face must inevitably have meant to be certain that He was not there to reveal dis­ ability, save as He was also there to put an end to it.” IV. Enmity (w . 14, 15a). Jesus saw the good in man. He also saw the evil. He was not un­ aware of the hatred and the dark devices of His enemies. Until the day when He was to permit them to take Him captive in the garden, He withdrew from them, leaving them to their evil designs and their wicked unbelief. Sometimes when we see how the wicked seem to flourish in our day, how they appear to go on without let or hindrance, we are prone to forget that there is One who “sits in the shadows,” and who knows and notes not only their ungodly deeds, but also their sinful thoughts. He knows, and that is enough for us. Let us not be seeking vengeance, nor fretting ourselves because of evil doers. God knows, and He will care for it all. V. Weakness (vv. 15b-21). Men hesitate to admit their weak­ ness to one another, always trying to keep up the appearance of strength and success. Well, there is no need of that kind of subterfuge with God. “He knoweth our frame; he remem- bereth that we are dust” (Ps. 103: 14). Jesus sympathized with those who were physically ill and He healed them (v. 15). What comfort there is in knowing that He is present at the sick bed of every believer, and that He is able to heal as it may be His will and purpose. Only He can do it. But there is something even more precious here. Man is weak not only physically but spiritually. His spiritual light may at times be near­ ly out, just a smoldering wick in­ stead of a brightly shining lamp. We might be tempted to say that it is so weak, so disagreeable, so smoky —let’s put it entirely out. But not Jesus. He will, if permitted, fan it into flame again. Then, too, man is like a broken reed. The picture is that of a stick cut to use for support as one walks. And then it breaks—what shall we do? Break it into smaller pieces and throw it away? Yes, that is what we will do if we have not the spirit o' Jesus.

But Few Ancient Obelisks Remain Standing in Egypt Between 2,000 and 4,000 years ago, more than 50 large obelisks were erected in Egsrpt to preserve, for all time, through their hiero­glyphs, the achievements of the Pharaohs. Yet today, only 19 of these monolithic monuments are still standing and only five are in Egypt.

An bid gentleman living out on a farm neer here a short time ago was very sick and the Drs. had given up all hope of his recovery and the old gertleman claimed no hope: beyond this life. So bis fami Iy called a preacher, and the preach, er was a Roosevelt man. Well, the preacher talked and talked to the old fellow, Gnally at last be thought he bad him just in the right place to make n confession, (.He did) So the preacher said, "Brother, don’t you have a word of comfort to tell” ? The old fellow kinda raised up in bed and said, "Yes, I do hope, trust, and pray that I can live till old Roosevelt get's out of office.” P. S. Let’s all pray the prayer of this dear man. Don’t tell me this man is lost. NO BOY’. A J. CRATER. Mabe Awarded Medals War Fund Drive On S-Sgt.

OCCUPATION OF REICH The war department isn’t adver­ tising the details but it has com­ pleted plans for the occupation of Germany by American forces. The Allies have agreed the occu­ pation should be shared in roughly equal numbers by U. S., British and Soviet forces. This will permit the return to the U. S. A. of a maxi­ mum number of units, will also free thousands of trained men if neces­ sary for polishing off the war against Japan.The chief problem involved is get­ ting enough transports to rush the men home, plus sorting out those en­ titled to go home first. The latter will be decided by the army’s “point demobilization system,” and mil­ lions of forms for computing each GI’s service are being printed and shipped overseas. In 1918, American soldiers in France, deliriously overjoyed at vic­ tory, almost threw away their weap­ ons, went wild for weeks and months. Officers, equally happy, suspended regulations, and permit­ ted their men to overrun the big cities of France, having a gay time. After this armistice, things will be different. The whole plan has been charted to the last detail. Discipline Ivill be maintained, but the war department demobilization plan calls for the elimination of all “har- tassing details not essential to the nealth and welfare of the troops.” GI Tours of Europe. Most of the troops will be excused from drill, will be given ample op­ portunity to see Europe while awaiting transports for home. Men who desire it will be taken on tours of the continent under army aus­ pices. A “Guided Tours of Europe" pro­ gram is being worked out as a re­ sult of the experience, after the last war, of American doughboys who returned home having seen only the battle fronts plus the gay side of Paris. This time officials are anxious to let the boys learn some­ thing more of the people and places they have been fighting for. Some GIs will be given an oppor­ tunity to go to school in Europe, attend universities such as the Sor- bonne, Oxford, and Cambridge. The army will also organize classes for the younger GIs who want to pick up their studies during the brief pe­ riod after the armistice before they return home. The war department recognizes it will be no easy job to get the army home all at once. However, both have emphasized the need for speed­ ing discharges and, with no sub­ marine warfare to cope with and no necessity for sailing in slow convoys, officials are confident that all except the army of occupation in Germany will be back within a few months. Note—Greatest complaint against the army point system is that it makes no allowance for men over 85, who apparently have to sweat it out until the end of the Japanese war, unless the war department makes new allowances for them.• • • INSIDE GERMANY Allied leaders, after surveying ef­ fects of intelligence work inside the Reich, are now finally convinced there is no chance of an honest anti- Hitler revolt by the German people. What’s more, efforts to spawn a pro-AJlied underground in Germany have met with failure. Principal reason is that the Ges­ tapo controls everything — includ­ ing the army hierarchy. The com- : munist underground has been com- I pletely liquidated; also all remnants of the socialist and social-democrat- I ic parties. i The only real hope Allied military ' leaders have is that the 11 million | slave laborers brought to Germany j by Hitler from Poland, Russia, i France, Belgium, Holland and Nor- I way, will conduct an increasing campaign of sabotage, perhaps giv­ ing heart to large groups of Ger­ mans to join them. A year ago, Hitler and his henchmen kicked these slave laborers around at will, fed them poorly, worked them brutally 'flnder a whip lash. Of late, this pressure has been eased. In some instances, Nazis have re- pertedly given special treatment to their captives on the chance that they themselves will not be too badly punishad by the Al­ lies when German falls. It is now even possible for a few of these captives to escape from Germany — for a price in , foreign money—as petty Nazi ' police try to accumulate enough foreign currency to live safely during the Allied occupation. . . . CAPITAL CHAFF C Whenever Sen. Bennett Clark of Missouri (soon to be an ex) meets Mrs. A. Mitchell Palmer, he says: “I should hate you — but I can’t.” . . . He refers to the fact that, at the Baltimore Democratic conven­ tion of 1912, A. Mitchell Palmer received a telegram from Woodrow ' Wilson, then governor of New Jer­ sey, releasing his delegates to Ben­ nett’s father, Speaker Champ Clark. But Palmer refused to show any one the telegram and, in the end, ,Wilson, not Clark, was nominated. M acArtliur F ollow s N ew Landings of Troops I * 4 V r„ * 'V , X Gen.

V ice P residential Candidates A ddress Legionnaires The Democratic vice presidential nominee, Sen. Harry S. Truman (left), and the Republican nominee, Gov. John W.

Both candidates were given a typical Legion welcome as were high ranking army and air offi­ cers who attended the convention along with aces of the present war.

Scheib- erlmg was in World War I. . GMmAM MCE Grantland Rice T T NFORTUNATELY (for its ri- ^ vals), all this 1944 Navy foot­ ball squad has is speed, skill, spirit; power, experience, abundance and able coaching. We have no thought of putting coach Commander Oscar Hagberg, the submarine leader, on the spot by saying he has an un­ beatable team. There is no such animal, as even Notre Dame discov­ ered last fall. But in line and backfield he has about all that a head coach needs, which the cool, quiet commander cheer­ fully admits. For one detail the Navy squad carries along at least 12 fine backs, includ­ ing such stars as Bob Jenkins, late of Alabama, and Ralph Ellsworth, one of the best backs Texas has ever sent to the field. And we have no idea of overlooking HaI Hamberg, an all- around ball of fire. Fast hard-hitting backs flit up and down the field in profusion and they will be working back of a strong line, headed by Don Whitmire, the 220-pound tackle, better known as the Decatur Destroyer. In Ellsworth and Jim Pettit, Navy has two backs who can hit around 9.6 or 9.7 for the 100-yard dash, probably the two fastest in the country. Two-hundred pound Bob Jenkins is sure to be one of the stars of the autumn highway. There isn’t space enough to name them all—Barron of Vanderbilt, Ear­ ley of Notre Dame, Ambrogi of Penn, Duden, Finos, Barksdale, Sul­ livan and others. The eligibility of Whitmire, Jack Martin and one or two others has given the Gold and Blue line just what it needed. I watched Rip Mil­ ler’s countenance for some time without discovering a single salty tear coursing down either cheek. Rip is the line coach and one who knows his trade. Hagberg Optimistic Commander Hagberg came from somewhere near the bottom of the Paeific to take over Captain Whel- chel’s job. While talking with him who should pop up but Command­ ers SIade Cutter and Doming, also just from the Pacific’s depths with its wreckage of Japanese ships. Both were former Navy stalwarts. “I am forced to break down and admit that we have a good squad,” Coach Hagberg said. “It is certainly all that any coach­ ing staff could expect to find. We have 10 or 12 fast, hard-hitting backs. We have a good first line in front of them—possibly a pretty good second line. We certainly have our share of speed and two good passers in Hamberg and Ellsworth. You won’t find a better taekle than Don Whitmire who is not only big and active, but always keen to go. It would be foolish, however, to say we won’t be beaten. “We also know what Army has,” the commander said. “We know the type of football that such backs as Glen Davis, Douglas Kenna, Sensan- baugher (Ohio State) and six or eight others can turn out. “This is sure to be a strong, fast Army team, looking for revenge aft­ er what has happened in the last five years. But tell Red Blaik I had nothing to do with this.” Classy Coaching “This is a good Navy football squad,” Rip said. “It can turn on the smoke and it has the punch. But among others don’t let anybody tell you that N. C. Pre-Flight, Notre Dame and Army don’t' have good teams—not overlooking Duke, Ga. Tech and Purdue. What about No­ tre Dame? I can tell you something about this—it isn’t the wrecking out­ fit of 1943, but Ed McKeever has a great bunch on hand, one of the strongest squads of the year. He hasn’t what Frank Leahy had last fall, but he has plenty, including a fine passer to work with his T- formation. Every team which hap­ pens to face this Irish line-up will have trouble. All I can say is that any team that can take this Navy squad will have to be extra good on that one day. You can’t al­ ways tell about football. But we have good stuff here, including a few that I think are standouts. We have more good backs than we have linemen so far, but we still have our share in the line.” AU of this would indicate that Navy is likely to have a pretty fair season and possibly win a few of its games, despite the fact that Cap­ tain Humphries, graduate manager, has arranged the strongest schedule he could get. Detroit’s Wakefield “Before Wakefield rejoined the Ti­ gers, York was the only hitter that the enemy pitchers were afraid of in a pinch. They could pass him and settle down to get the next man and have little worry about the men on base getting home. They can’t now, for Wakefield is dangerous. He may not hit as many home runs, but he is even more likely to smash a timely game-winning hit over sec­ ond base.” Charley Hughes, head­ man at the Detroit Athletic club, was speaking.

CHAPTER VII Zorie got up and latched the door again. She again tested the latch. It held. When she was awakened in the morning, by the phone ringing, the door was open again, but no longer banging, because the ship had stopped rolling. She waited for Amber to answer it, but Amber did not awaken. She was lying on her back. Her face, In the clear, cold light of early morning, was shocking. All color was drained from it, and it was com-t pletely relaxed. Her mouth was open a little and she seemed hardly to be breathing. Fascinated by what she saw, Zorie stared. It was not now the face of a ruthless, imperi­ ous girl, but that of a girl with no illusions, no faith, no hope. Zorie snatched up the phone as it started to ring again. The admiral's voice said heartily: "Good morning, Zorie, good morn­ ing! It’s a beautiful day—a fine day for work—hm? What do you say we get to work as soon as you’ve had a bite of breakfast?’’ “All right,” Zorie said in her me­ lodiously meek voice. She found the dining-room, which was almost empty—it still lacked eighteen minutes of eight a. m.—and a steward directed her to a small table against the wall. The waiters did not seem to have much to do, but it was a long time before one of them came to her table, He looked insolent, and when he asked for her order, he was al­ most rude. She presently felt eyes staring at her. She glanced up. At a table two removed from hers sat the man with scrubby red hair and powerful sloping shoulders—the man she had seen last night outside her room lighting a cigarette and, later, at the Palm Room bar with Winthrop Lanning. His stare was so absorbed that it did not disconcert him when her eyes met his. They were expres­ sionless. His long dark face was expressionless. He was searching and searching her face. It was not admiration. It was the most intense concerted inquiry. Zorie felt the heat of embarrass­ ment and resentment flash into her cheeks. She looked away. A waiter brought him his breakfast. Its main dish was a large thick steak. He carved it and ate it with a ravenous­ ness that appalled her. His expres­ sion was bestial. He ate swiftly, bolting the steak, gulping his coffee. Now and then he stared at Zorie. He presently lighted a cigarette, got up and left. Zorie was finishing her cold coffee when Paul came in and sat down in the empty chair across from her. He looked as if he hadn’t slept well. He was haggard and gray and his eyes had the blurred look of suffer­ ing.“Darling, look," he said. “I’m terribly sorry about last night, but this whole thing goes much deeper than you may suspect. I admit I’m jealous of Steve. I’ve always been jealous of him. But it isn’t just that. I know that you haven’t had much experience with his kind, and I was so afraid he’d turn your head.” He looked at her with a tentative, hopeful smile. She felt sorry for Paul; sorry for his unhappy, clever, analytical mind. “I know how he affects women. But I should have had enough brains to see then, as I do now, that you’re much too wise, much too fine and balanced to let a man like Steve turn your head.” “Yes, Paul,” she said gravely. “The reason the admiral is so dis­ gusted with Steve,” Paul went on, “is that the United States Navy is a tradition in our family. A Duncan has been a naval officer in every generation for a hundred and thirty years. John Paul Jones Duncan, for whom I was named, was an officer on a Yankee corvette when he first saw the Islands. “There’ve been Duncans .present at every important American naval engagement—1812, the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, the last war. My father went down with the In­ vincible, you know, at Jutland. Grandfather, with all his faults, is a damned fine patriot. And he wanted one of us to carry on the tradition. It’s a proud tradition, you see. So Steve went to Annapolis, and Steve, in turn, became a lieutenant, j.g. Am I boring you, Zorie?” “No,” she said hastily. “Of course you aren’t boring me.” Her eyes had no doubt betrayed her. She was looking inward again. She was seeing Steve, tall and splendid, on the bridge of a battleship. It was where she had intuitively seen him when they stood beside the telephone pole in the rain. “I feel so terribly sorry about it,” she said. “But please don’t tell me any more. I feel sorry for the admiral, and I feel sorry for Steve, too. And for you, Paul.” He was still looking at her un­ easily. “You aren’t sore.at me for blowing off last night?” “No, darling,” she said gently. He seemed greatly relieved. Her tenderness for Paul had returned. She could forgive him for losing his temper last night. She was grati­ fied that he had spent such a bad night. He wasn’t, after all, taking her for granted. As she looked at him, smiling, his brother became unimportant. And when Paul said softly, “Dar­ ling, you know I adore you,” she felt her heart lift up and glow with response. And that—and not the reckless physical feeling she had for Steve—was love. Paul went to look for someone who would play paddle tennis with him, and Zorie went down to B Deck and the admiral’s suite. Steve opened the door. He smiled in a lazy, friendly way. and his eyes, bluer than she had ever seen h' “Get out of here,” his grandfather said shrilly. “Stop annoying me.” them, held a twinkle, as if they shared a secret. He wore blue lounging pajamas and he reminded her more than ever of a great, lazy, dangerous cat.“Courage, my brave,” he said with a conspirator’s air. “He’s in there. Waiting. And it’s going to be pretty tough.” Admiral Duncan, in white ducks and a short-sleeved white shirt with no necktie, was pacing up and down the lanai. He was holding a hand­ ful of scraps of yellow paper. “Sit down, my dear, sit down!” he cried. “It’s a fine morning for work, isn’t it? I’ve decided to skip my early years and begin with Annapolis. I’ll just start with my first years there—hm?” Her pencil flew across the pink- lined pages. He never paused to spell proper names. Punctuation, he ignored. Steve stretched out in a long bam­ boo chair and put his chin on his hand and smoked cigarettes. He kept his eyes half-closed. He said, after a half hour of it: “Admiral, nobody will want to read that junk. If you must write a book, why not the story of the family? Begin it with your recollections of early days in the Islands. That’s a story. It’s wonderful stuff.” Zorie wanted to say, “Oh, boy! Do I agree with you!” But she pru­ dently said nothing. “I’ll get to that,” the admiral said irritably. “You won’t have space for it,” Steve drawled. Paul came in. He glanced into the lanai, turned and started out. “Wait a minute,” Steve halted him. “The admiral has been dictat­ ing nothing but hooey. We’d like to have your opinion.” “I don’t want anybody’s opinion,” the admiral barked. “Count me out of this,” said Paul. “Zorie,” Steve said, “read some of that last stuff to Paul.” While the admiral fidgeted, she read several pages of it. “Well,” Steve said presently, “what do you think of it, Paul?” “I have a new slogan,” Paul an­ swered. “ ’Avoid controversies and you won’t wear out so fast.’ I’ve been up on the bridge with the skip­ per. He thinks we’re going to have War with Japan any minute. What’s your opinion, Admiral?” “Not for a while,” the admiral said. “We have them on the run. Our Far Eastern policy is stiffer than they expected. We’ve called their bluff. At the proper time, our navy will go out there and blast Uiem off the Pacific—hm?” Zorie was watching Steve. His expression was dubious. “We hope,” he murmured. “Kuruso and Admiral Nomura are a pair of beggars,” the admiral went on. “They were sent Jo Wash­ ington to beg for oil and U. S. trade. They’re on their knees be­ cause Japan is terrified of our strik­ ing power.” Steve was shaking his head. “Ja­ pan is playing smart,” he said. “She isn’t afraid of our striking power. She has plenty of striking power of her own. The popular idea that Japan is a pushover is a mistake. I don’t trust Kuruso and Nomura and I’m glad the Hawaiian Station is on battle alert.” “What’s your answer to that, Ad­ miral?” Paul asked. His face was sober but Zorie saw the malice in his eyes. The admiral suddenly glared. “You’re trying to distract me from my book!” he said angrily. “I won’t have these interruptions! Clear out, both of you!” Paul sauntered out, but Steve stayed. “Zorie,” he said, “what’s your opinion?” “Of war with Japan?” she gasped. “No. The book.” “I’m only an amanuensis,” Zorie said promptly. “Well, that’s an opinion. Your book stinks, Admiral.” “Get out of here!” his grand­ father said shrilly. “Stop annoying me!” “Look,” Steve said patiently. “You want an interesting book, don’t you?” “I’m going to have an interesting book!” “Why,” Steve said gently, “not start with the family background? That’s where all autobiographies start. Tell us about the first Dun­ can—John Paul Jones Duncan— coming to the islands in 1824, giv­ ing up .his commission and landing in Honolulu with eighty-five cents which he ran up into the finest sug­ ar plantation on—” “Everybody knows that story,” the admiral angrily interrupted. “Do you know it, Zorie?” Steve asked. “No,” Zorie said meekly. “There you are!” Steve cried. He resumed his dictation. But it had nothing to do with early daya in the Sandwich Islands. It deal? with his pranks at Annapolis. It was almost noon when Steve, who had been lounging all this time in the long chair and gazing out over the sparkling blue sea, again interrupted. “Your amanuensis is a wreck, Admiral,” he said. “Go out and grab some fresh air, Zorie. I have a feeling that all this fascinating material will keep.” Zorie was relieved and grateful. She didn’t want to be in the same room with Steve any longer. She couldn’t keep her eyes off him, or her thoughts away from him. “Take a turn on deck, my dear, and come back after lunch,” the admiral ordered. Zorie crossed the other room and opened the corridor door. A man was bending down close to the door. It was the beefsteak eater—Mr. Lanning’s friend. There was a cig­ arette in his mouth. He flicked the wheel of his lighter and lighted it. Zorie stopped, with the door open, with her hand clutching the knob. There was no question in her mind that this man had been bending down, with his ear to the door, lis­ tening. Her impulse to call Steve was so strong that she whirled about, with her mouth open. But she changed her mind. The man with scrubby red hair and powerful shoulders was Mr. Lanning’s friend, and Mr. Lan­ ning was Steve’s friend. And she intended to ask Steve no more ques­ tions about his friends . . . She closed the door firmly, walked past the man and went on deck. She looked about the ship for Paul and found him stretched out in a steamer chair reading a thick book by Anna Freud. She wanted to tell him about the eavesdropper, but Paul was obviously displeased by her interruption. He kept glancing back at the page. He was again being inconsiderate. He had evidently forgotten his morn­ ing’s anguish. Having reassured himself that he had nothing to fear where Steve was concerned, he Kad returned her to her niche in his mind—a niche that was doubtless la­ belled, “Zorie, mine, nothing to wor­ ry about.” She lunched alone and returned to the admiral’s suite. She was dis­ appointed—and glad—that Steve wasn’t there. The admiral was down on his hands and knees in the lanai with a large sheet of wrapping pa­ per spread out before him. On it was a crude, elaborate diagram is soft pencil. Steve walked in. Steve wore a soft white shirt without a tie, and flannels. He peered over Zorie’a shoulder. “What is it?” he asked. “The Battle of Manila Bay,” his grandfather answered. “What,” Steve asked coldly, “was the Battle of Manila Bay?” “Get out of here!” Jlie admiral snapped. Steve held out his hands implor­ ingly. “Zorie, I ask you! Is this stuff the admiral’s been dictating to you pure bilge, or is it pure bilge?” “Zorie!” the admiral cried. “Hasn’t he a lot of nerve telling us how we want to write our book? We’re doing all right, aren’t we— hm?”(TO BE CONTINUEm SEWING CIRCLE NEEDLEWORK G ift Item in Pansy Design Worked in Cross Stitch OLORFUL big pansies—three inches across—done in shades of purple, lavender, pale yellow and a touch of lipstick red make stunning designs on linen pillow­ cases, hand towels or on pale green, lavender or yellow tea cloths.

C- I wrote an article which appear­ ed the other day In the Charlotte Observer, entitled, -‘Pay Day Al ways Comes,” In this article I quoted an editorial by Elder W. A. Reese, editor of the Forrunnerl a Baptist publication, published in Kentucky. In this editorial Editor Reece compared the President’s “Birthday Balt” to King Belshaz­ zar’s drunken feast. This "Birth­ day Ball” was done in order to raise money with which to fight infantile paralysis, end I agreed with Brother Reese exactly In his denunciation of such a wicked thing. Someone dropped me a postal, postmarked at Hickory, N. C., which reads as follows: "Dear Brother Isenhour. You can’t believe all you see in print. Regardless of the author of the ed­ itorial you quoted in the Observer it is utter rubbish. On the chance, however, that Elder Reece has dis covered a profound truth. I will show his article to the staff of the local polio hospital Ii may sur prise them to find that what’s giv. ing their patients misery is not po­ lio virus, but Roosevelt and sin. •‘Yours, “One of the Belshazzar bovs.” Now, "Belshazzar Boy,” I take it that you endorse liquor.drunken, ness, dancing, adultry, etc., along with its list of crime, disease, heart ache, revelry, broken homes, wre­ cked lives and damed souls. That is exactly what liquor results in. Belshazzar put on a drunken feast, ajong with a thousand of his lords, bis wives and concubines. In the midst of their hilarity, revelry and drunkennets, God wrote the doom of the King upon the plaster of the wall. He was weighed in the bal ances and found wanting, and that night be was slain. Then Darius took charge of the kingpom. Sin and wickedness persisted in. al. ways brings men and nations to ut­ ter and eternal defeat. So if you aro “one of the Belshazzar bovs,” jnst remember it certainly is no ho­ nor to you, and that you will meet dafeat along life’s pathway, and go down some day, "unwept, unhon ored and unsung.” Who honors and respects King Belshazzar? Who names bis sons after him? Nobody. And remember God visits judg­ ments upon men and nations for ungodliness and wickedness. The Bible declares it and history con­ firms it. When you write again have manhood enough to sign your n. me. As Usual While members of the official New Deal family air their disunity in public, beef hungry families can only speculate on who wears the trousers WFA or OPA. WFA Administrator Jones has ordered the freeing 0 f cheaper grades of steaks and roasts from ra­ tioning. OPA officials say the or­ der aggravates existing distributive difficulties as a result of sudden shifts in buying power. AU of which is jnst another ex ample of bungling New Deal ad ministration officials' inability to agree on anything tnuch less to compromise. What Roosevelt Said Boston. October 30, 1940—“I give you one more assurance. I have said this before, hut I shall say it again and again. Your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars. They are g. ing into training to form a force so strong that, by its very existence, it will keep the thre. t far away from our shores. The purpose c>f our de fense is detense.” Pay Day Always Comes Whether men live right or wrong serve God or the devil, sew good or bad seed, we are aware of the fact that pay day always comes. It never fails. The Bible tells us so It is a fact beyond the shadow of a doubt that whatever a man sows, that shall he reap. This is true of men and nations. An editorial of a Baptist publica. tions calls The Forerunner, publish­ ed monthly at Somerset, Kv., R 2, reads: “Several years ago, when this nation began to celebrate President Roosevelt’s birthday with “ Birth­ day Balls’ under the guise of helo- ing infantile paralysis sugers, this paper strongly condemned such as sinful and abominable in the sight of God. When a nation, by the consent and will of its leaders, put on a national program of ain, I do not believe God will pass it bv and not visit His judgment upon same, if the nation does not repent. Re­ peated examples of this are to be found In the Bible. In the 'Birth­ day Balls’ this country, we might sav, re enacted Belshazzar’s feast. Revalry, dancing, women, strong drink, lust-nart, if not all, of these were manifested in all these cele brations in varying degrees. The whole thing was an abomination in the sight ot God. And this was done in the name of cbaTity, to help infantile paralysis suffers What have roe today? The greatest epi demic of infantile paralysis in re­ cent years—perhaps the greaiest in the nation’s history. Nations and wicked men may pursue their course of sin for a while, but the judgment of God will overtake yet ‘He will not keep His.’ ” In Ihis editorial Elder Reese ex presses a profound truth. We see it exactly as he has expressed it, word for word. We can’t do wrong and get by, either as indiv’duals or as nation. In calebrating the Pre sident's birthday with arediculous, shameful, adnltrons, drunken dance order to raise monev for infantile patalysis sufferers, the nation will have to suffer for it. Perhaps gen erations unborn will have to reap part of the fearful outcome. Pay day always comes. How redicnl- to think that a nation would stoop to dancing and drunkenness and a- dultry in order to do good! This is of the devil, not of God God never commanded men to do wick­ edly in order to do good. Never. He tells men to repent of wicked­ ness, turn from it, then do good. Good does not come out of evil But a harvest of evil comes out of evil. How dreadful are some pay days, while other' pay days are blessed! Poor Old Franklin In a recent radio drama Presi dent Roosevelt, plaving the lead­ ing role of “Commander-in-Chief” In a 20-mil?ion dollar production st ged in the Pacific theatre (scene: Bremerton Ship Yards), glibly an nounced that “ we were not allowad to fortify Guam.” For that the Oscarshould go to Franklin Delano. It is said that the stuff that dreams and drama are made of Is often lacking in that quality known as truth, But truth can be found in a five-cent Senate document numbered 202, “ The Decline and Renaissanceof the Navy 1922 44 ” Here on page eight, the seekei after truth, rather than entertain­ ment, will find the following para- gsapli: "In view of the action of the State Department, and in view of the fact that the item of £5,000.000 for Guam had been defeated by such a decisive vote in the House of Representatives, after consulting with the President on this item, the House action was not changed bv the Senate. Quiet Eleanor New Orleans. La. —It probably has been noticed bv everyone that Mrs Roosevelt has been conspicuously quiet recently. This is as it should have been all along. How evew. this is likely to last only until Roosevelt is rejected—if he is re-elected. Her views and actions are more disturb­ ing than those of any other Demo* crat in the country. For this rea­ son mostly, and aside from the fact that we have one President in office too long. I will consider it necessary to vote for Dewey.

Broken Promise No. 6—There was a time when Franklin D. Roosevelt willingly conceded that the chief executive should yield to Congressional ex­ pression, Tliat was hack in 1938, at Warm Springs, Ga., when in a statement in support of the reorga­ nization bill be denied that he had any inclination to be a dictator, he said: “I can think of no case where the President would not gladly yield to a clear expression of Con­ gressional opinion.” The 1944 revenue bill was a “clear expression of Congressional opin­ ion.” It was adopted by the House 238 to lot, and by the Senate without even a roll call vote But Presideot Roosevelt vetoed the bill and made remarks that appareotly infuriated his personal f.iend and the Senate majority leader, Sena­ tor (Dear Aiben) Barkley Often has the President strayed far from 'yielding to a clear expression of Congressional opinion.” DemocratsOn New Deal These are a few of many signifi­ cant statements that have the New Dealers worried: Senator Edwin C. Johnson, Colo­ rado, now serving his second term as Democratic United States Senat­ or, also former Governor of Colora do: "Even a child knows that a po litical revolution comparable to the Harding landslide, is sweeping the nation. The New Deal is through! If the Democratic Party persists in hanging onto its corpse ii will IoBe the Senate the House and the gov­ ernors of every northern and west­ ern state in the election ” Leon C. Phillips, who served ten years as an elected Democratic state official of Oklahoma, and whose term as Governor of Oklahoma ex­ pired in 1943: “I will register as a Republican at the first legal oppor­ tunity because it is the only party organized that can effectively go into every part of the United States and fight the New Deal which bas well' nigh completed destruction of our free elections.” Senator W. Lee O’Daniel, Demo crat, of Texas: "I will do every­ thing I can to bring about the de feat of President Roosevelt for a fourth term. I’ll do anything I can to defeat anybody egotistical en ough to think we’ve gotten down to the last man. the only man In the United States capable of serving as President. I’m going to work to clean up this dirty mess, to try and get the Democratic party back to where it belongs. The Democratis Partv has been stolen by the New Dealers, Fellow Travelers, Commu­ nists and Socialists.” An X mark after your name meant you owe us.

Over five thousand have been cared for and trained. Its graduates and form­ er pupils are in all walks of life and there is no record of a former pupil having been convicted and sentenced for committinp a major crime in North Carolina It is the oldest Or­ phanage in the State and receives children other than thoBe of mem­ bership of the supporting order. At the present time less than forty ner cent of the population of the Orphanage is of Masonic parentage. The home possesses valuable build­ ings, grounds and equipment and has no operating deficit for several years. The annual budget of the Orphan­ age calls for an expenditure of $170,- 000. This provides shelter, clothing, and food, recreation, heat, light, books, school supplies, health pro gram, staff of trained wotkers, vo­ cational training in several depart­ ments. laundry, repairs and upkeep to the grounds, buildings and equip­ ment, and experienced case work for a family of 308 children. Superintendent C. K. Proctor an­ nounces that likeral giftB are needed this year for operating expenses in order to maintain the Home. The Oxford Orphanage is more than a philanthrophy—it is an in­ vestment in the lives of North Caro­ lina boys and girls who would not otherwise have a chance. It pays to the State and its citizenship the high dividends in character and trained young people. It is an opportunity today for North Carolina citizens to express in a substantial way their de sire to help others. The orphanage of the State use the Thanksgiving season as an occa­ sion tu appeal to the citizens of the State for so much needed assistance The Superintendent of the Oxford Orphanage announces that ths hotre is open for visitors each day. and hundreds of North Carolina citizens visit this historic spot every year.

The more we spend in Pennsylvania, the better state legis­ lature will have. It’s as simple as that.” These cynical words were spoken bv David J.

Church groups and women’s clubs know that one of the best ways of raising funds for their activities and philanthropic purposes is by having cake ba­ zaars or bakery sales. Few can resist th e appea.l of home-made cakes and cookies at such sales, and it is truly an ideal way of meeting the year’s budget. It is here where the good ladies bring their best wares, and finance committees really have their day. For displaying the goodies, a well set table is necessary. It’s a good idea to have a good looking table cloth and flowers. The oakes and cookies will do the rest. You will find today’s recipes just as delicious as they sound, and not too expensive to make. I’m giving different types of recipes in case you want to clip the sheet and pass the recipes among the members ol your particular group. tLady Baltimore Cake Vi cup shortening 114 cups granulated sugar 2 cups cake flour, sifted ZVi teaspoons baking powder Vi teaspoon salt I teaspoon almond extract Vs cup milk 5 egg whites Cream shortening and sugar until light. Add sifted dry ingredients and milk alternately. Last fold in stiffly beaten egg whites and flavor­ ing. Bake in three eight-inch lay­ ers in a moderate (375-degree) oven for 25 minutes. Frosting IVi cups sugar Vi cup boiling water 14 cup hot maraschino cherry juice Vi teaspoon light corn syrup 1 tablespoon lemon juice 2 egg whites beaten stiff Vt cup chopped blanched almonds, toasted Vt teaspoon grated orange rind 15-20 maraschino cherries, cut in eighths Combine sugar, water, fruit juices and syrup and bring to a boil quick­ ly, stirring only until sugar is dis­ solved. Boil rap­ idly without stir­ ring until syrup spins a thread when dropped from spoon and forms soft ball in cold water (238 degrees). Pour s y r u p in to a stream over egg whites, beating constantly. Continue beating until of a consistency to spread. Fold in remaining ingredients and spread m between and top of layers of Lady Baltimore Cake. •Red Devil’s Food 2 cups pastry flour Vi cup cocoa Vt cup shortening 1!4 cups sugar What Makes It So? If cake batjer runs out of the pan when baking, it may be due to too small a pan, too slow an oven, too much sugar or shortening, ot too much leavening. If the cake has a moist sticky crust, it is due to too much sugar in the recipe. If the crust is thick and heavy, the recipe may have too much flour, too long baking, too hot an oven, or not enough sugar or shortening. If a cake humps or cracks on top it may be because it has too much flour or was baked in too hot an oven. Coarse texture is due to too much leavening, not enough liquid, insufficient creaming of shortening and sugar, or too slow an oven.

For that melt-in-your-mouth qual­ ity, there’s a spice cake that will fill the bill and then some. But this is not an ordinary spice cake, by any means. In addition to fine spices, it has the subtle flavor of bananas: •Spice Cake Vi cup butter or substitute 2 cups brown sugar 4 eggs 3 bananas, mashed fine 1 cup milk 2 teaspoons cinnamon 1 teaspoon each, cloves, nutmeg and allspice 2 Vi cups flour 3 teaspoons baking powder Cream together sugar and butter, add beaten egg yolks and mashed bananas.

Send them to Miss Lynn Chambers, Western Newspaper Union, 210 South Desplaines Street, Chicago 6, IlLReleased by Western Newspaper Union, Looking at Sonny Tufts er wired him. CONNY TIJFTS is a fugitive from the social register. A blue-blooded rebel. A Boston Back Bay back­ slider. He has loused up family tradition from childhood. This strange admixture of social breed­ ing, good education, revolutionary spirit, utter frankness and self-be­littling makes him the most colorful personality Hollywood has seen in many a moon. Sonny tells me his family is in such a rut it hasn’t moved out raf a radius of three square miles in 300 years. A fore­ bear of his found­ ed Tufts college— must have had a guilty conscience, says Sonny. His family for gen­ erations w e re H arvard Men. When Sonny broke away and went to Yale his moth- YaIe may be for some people, but not for us.” His first year in the movies was amazing. A year after he had ambled through a Hollywood studio gate looking for a chance to do anything at all in a movie he was an official star teamed with Paul­ ette Goddard in “I Love a Soldier.” He recently topped the 10 players elected for stardom by the nation's exhibitors in the Motion Picture Herald’s annual “stars of tomor­ row” poll. Vital Statistiea The six-foot-jfour, 200-pound blond was bom in Boston 29 years ago last July 16 and was christened Bowen Charleton Tufts III. He’s never been called anything but Sonny. His family expected him to train for business and finance, his father being a famous banker. But Sonny, at eight, saw Eddie Cantor, and asked his dad, “Would you care if I became an actor?” Wise Tufts Sr. re­ plied, “Not if you’re a good one.” He went to the exclusive Philips- Exeter1 where he majored in Greek (honestly), rowed on the crew, was cheer leader during the football sea­ son, and organized a band. His band made money, but Sonny was in­ clined to cockiness, and when he let a summer hotel engagement slip out of his mitts because he was too sure he had it, his father decided he needed a practical lesson. Sonny was sent to Plymouth as a house- to-house seller of refrigerators. He surprised every one, including him­ self, by winning the district sales contest—and a silver cup. At Yale he was a legend. He started out by spending two years in the freshman class. He majored (hold your hats!) in anthropology, and even today talks glibly about races and reads heavy tomes on the subject. A Fling at Opera The summer before his senior year he heard Tito Schipa sing. He decided he, too, would be a great opera star. The big Iunk worked his way to Paris on a freighter and spent 6 months studying there and 18 months locked in a room back in New York learning opera scores. He was given an audition at the Met, but found out how little his starting salary would be, so leaped into a Broadway musical, "Who’s Who.” He was barely in it—slight­ ly more in “Sing for Your Supper.” So he turned to singing his own ma­ terial at swanky hotel spots in New York and Palm Beach. Hammed Hi's Way In Joe Egli, Paramount director, gave Sonny an audition, then a test. Sonny picked something from a batch of test scripts, choosing one he thought he could make funny. Long after this howling test had won him a contract he discovered he had clowned Charles Boyer’s most tender love scene from “Love Affair.” A week after the contract was inked Mark Sandrich saw the test, gave him another with Paulette Goddard, Ihen the role opposite her in “So Proudly We Hail.” That made the big bloke, and he went into “Gov­ ernment Girl,” “I Love a Soldier,” “Bring On the Girls,” and then ‘‘Here Come the WAVES,” with Bing Crosby and Betty Hutton. Sonny makes friends easily, quick­ ly. He’s colorful every inch of his frame and it would take more than a story like this to outline all of his adventures. But the best story he told me was about the four WAVES he gave a farewell party to before they took off for duty. He wanted to bring in a couple of his pals, but the WAVES said: “What— and spoil our fun? We want Tufts!” They made it their theme song. . . . Climbing Too Fast Frank Sinatra walked off the set of “Anchors Aweigh” when he couldn’t see his rushes, sulked a half hour, then came back, apologized to everybody and went on shooting. Ioe Pasternak tells me Frank’s the kindest hearted guy in the world, but the most confused. He’s being driven crazy by requests from all ever, from benefits, hospitals, camps, etc. He needs to learn self disci­ pline. Well, Frank’s young, and even older people can’t Ieam that over­ night.

N- C. Y an k Fliers Released From N azi Prison Camp D P B W PEAk iy~v R f \ , - JS > Washington, D. C. CLOTHES RATIONING AVERTED Few people know how close the country was to clothes rationing a lew months ago, at the peak of the war. The key figure who helped pre­ vent it was shrewd Pittsburgh de­ partment store wizard Irwin Wolf. Wolf and WPB boss Donald Nel­ son held seeeral conferences on the problem, at which Wolf pointed out that retailers, worried about short­ ages, were buying all the clothes in sight, and hoarding huge amounts of one item while having no Stock= of other goods. Finally, Nelson asked Wolf to sit down with Joseph Weiner, head of the civilian supply section of WPB, John Davidson, representing tl « wholesalers, and Earl Reed, another key WPB official. After going ov< r several involved proposals, they re­ tired from the conference room and drafted a simple order which lim­ ited all retailers to the same amount of stock they had during the pre­ vious year. The proposal was imme­ diately adopted by Nelson, and clothes rationing was avoided. Nelson now calls Wolf’s plan “one of the saviours of the civilian supply situation in the U. S.” NOTE—One effect of Wolf’s pro­ gram is that merchants will carry over only small amounts of "ersatz" merchandise in the postwar period, will not be stuck with poor-qualit\ merchandise to unload on the money-flushed public.. . . AFTERMATH OF V-DAV The White House has just received \ a confidential report showing that 66.4 per cent of American families : have saved only 11.6 per cent of the ; _ money put aside by the nation dur­ ing war time. In other words, the : upper one-third bracket of the people tucked away 88.4 per cent. The same report points out that, immediately after V-day in Europe, rnost plants which continue operat­ ing will cut overtime, thus dropping wages from 15 to 25 per cent. One of the problems officials face is a wild rush to cash war bonds, not for lush spending, but for bare necessities of workers in middle and lower-income brackets. All these figures now have Presi- i dent Roosevelt concerned about what will happen in the first weeks immediately after the war. The president’s economic advisers are telling him that continued prosperity . In the postwar period will require his greater personal attention to domestic problems. ■They figure that, ff the nation can successfully come through the first few weeks after the ar­ mistice, then the demand for peacetime goods, long denied the public, will pick up national prosperity. However, the first weeks of readjustment are going to be tough.• • • DOLLAR-A-VEAR MEN The full effect hasn't yet perco­ lated down from the top but, before he left for China, Donald Nelson signed a new set of rules governing the appointment of — and the Continued employment of—WPB dol- lar-a-year men. It has been felt first I jn the textile, clothing and leather j divisions but gradually is begin-1 ning to result in changes elsewhere j Ui the agency. I Dollar-a-year appointments for the I war emergency period were okayed by the White House four years ago, the appointments to be made at the discretion of the agency chiefs with­ out regard to existing law. Criti­ cism of the early dollar-a-year ap­ pointments gradually resulted in a tightening of the policy, but Nelson never really put his foot down until last month. Major dynamite in the order is Nelson’s pronouncement that “No person may be employed on a dollar-a-year basis who would be required by his posi­ tion on the War Production board to make decisions direct­ ly affecting his own company or its competitors.” The same section bans dollar-a-year em­ ployment of all lawyers, all trade association officials, mem­ bers of WPB industry advisory committees, or any individuals convicted of anti-trust viola­ tions. Dozens of dollar-a-year men with­ in WPB are daily called upon to formulate policy affecting their own industries, and consequently their own companies and competitors. At the same time, Nelson’s order does not reach the even more serious problem of salaried employees in a position to make decisions affecting the companies from which they came to the government — or to which they will go when they leave Washington. * • » MERRY-GO-ROUND C Jesse Jones, at the age of 70, has just come through a major opera­ tion, now appears to be in better health. <L Maury Maverick, who spent a lot of time in France during World War I but saw little of its culture, can be given credit for the army’s plan to supply competent guides to conduct servicemen on tours of his­ toric monuments not only in France but in Egypt, Greece and every part of the world immediately after tha armistice. f /i 1W ' y L , IS* Left, shows Vanks released from Romanian prison tamps lining up for hot showers and new clothing while their old outfits are deloused.

She has two weather eyes'peeled for anyone disturbing her moste=. vGMmAND\ J ? /C E ^ TUST how good,” I asked a well j ” known fight conditioner, “will Joe Louis and Billy Conn be after the war is over and they are back at the old trade?” I “O. K.,” he said, “if they are not held in the army too long. I under­ stand Louis is up around 230 pounds now and Conn weighs 210. Bnt giv­ en time I feel sure that Louis can get back to 210 or 212 Ihfe, ****% pounds and., that Conn can make 190, which would be a more useful weight in the heavyweight ' group. Both have been giving boxing GranUandRiee exhibitions at vari­ ous camps, also acting as boxing instructors now and then, and this should help to check any big slump in form. “Louis has always been a hard worker. Before entering army serv­ ice his average road work was about five miles a day. He isn’t young in a fighting way, but he isn’t too old. He is still younger than Jim Cor­ bett was in his famous comeback against Jim Jeffries, younger than Fitzsimmons was when he stopped Corbett at Carson City. “Conn will have little trouble get­ ting down to 190 pounds. He can get even lower. He is much younger than Louis and is still short of his prime. Conn at 185 or even 190 pounds can still be fast—and be a much harder puncher. It is a sure thing that the first defense Louis makes of his title will be against Conn. Each has had about the same war handicap so far as ring train­ ing is concerned.” There are reports about that Louis and Conn will be asked to put on a war charity fight some time later. This would be com­ pletely unfair to Louis who has already given war and navy re­ lief two free contests'. Louis still owes the government j over $150,000 in the way of income I taxes and the problem he faces now j is paying this back. Even if he re- ! ceived $200,000 for his first fight after the war he would be lucky to keep $40,000 of this amount, with new taxes piled on. It would take four major fights to get him nearly even. Washington could hardly af­ ford to ask Louis for another charity show after throwing away at least $1,000,000 for the Red Cross or army and navy relief by refusing to let Army and Navy football teams meet in Philadelphia or New York. We still feel th's insane switch to Annapolis before some 10,000 spec­ tators will be changed later on. We have had some odd and bewildering curves thrown at us from Washing­ ton, but nothing quite as baffling as the present location of the next Army-Navy game. Putting on Weight It has been a matter of 17 years now since Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey met in their second battle in Chicago. Since that date Tunney has added -25 pounds and Dempsey has packed on 20. They are both now around the same weight at 210 or 212 units of displacement. I have seen both recently and the two of them look to b e as physically fit as men of their age can hope to be. Both are many years older than Louis, and Louis is many pounds heavier than either. Big Gate Promised Mike Jacob’s mouth begins to water and his teeth make an extra clatter when he thinks of the next Louis-Conn collision. If fought today or In the near future, with over $25,000,000,- 040 in loose change floating around, it would wreck all past receipts by at least a million or more. It might easily be a $4,000,000 show if Mike could get away with the prices he could get, from $200 a seat on down. This would be all right with the government and the state, for both would get plenty. This may seem to be an extrava-1 gant estimate, but how many be- j lieved a while back that the three New York tracks would shove $400,- 000,000 through the mutuel windows in 1944, with a similar amount pass­ ing through the hands of the book­ makers? This latter, of course, is a ! guess. But the amount is still a , healthy hunk of change, j The surest bet on the calendar after the war is that the Louis-Conn party will be one of the biggest sporting and financial shows ever known. Remember Gerhardt? j “The greatest natural athlete I ! ever saw,” says Maj. Lou Beard, i “was a West Pointer by the name I of Charley Gerhardt. You may have ■ heard of him lately. He was the ; major - general who first broke I through at Saint Lo in France. I “Gerhardt had played little base­ ball when he came to West Point but in a few months he was one of the greatest infielders we ever had. He had played no football at all, but shoved into the quarterback spot, he was an outstanding star.” C L A SSIF IE D DEPARTMENT HELP WANTED • Persons _ now engaged in esaerrti^l industry will not apply without state­ment of availability from their focal United States Employment Service, E xperienced Lanndry and dry eteanJnfw orkers w anted.

GEOJiGE K WORTS W.N.U. RELEASE THE STORT THUS FAR: Zorlo Corey, who hates herself for being meek and 6hy, agrees to deliver some Invitations for her employer’s wife. It is raining, and she bursts into tears. A handsome stran­ ger stops and gets her story from her; he tears up the invitations and deposits them In a nearby trash basket. Zorie, unable to assert herself. Is railroaded into taking a Job she doesn’t want by Admiral Duncan, grandfather of her fiance, Paul Duncan. Aboard the steamer, Samoa, en route to Hawaii, Zorle dances with Steve, Paul’s brother. Steve is the ‘‘handsome stran- cer" who had befriended her. Paul Is furi­ ous at Zorie, and refers to Steve as a Nazi spy. The admiral dictates some of his memoirs to Zorie. CHAPTER Vin She looked at them both with dis­ may. “I—I think we’re doing nice­ ly,” she said in a quavery voice. “There!” cried the admiral with a triumphant chortle. “Zorie!" Steve said in a shocked voice. He was looking at her as if fie didn’t believe it. “I never thought you’d let me ■dowfi,” he said softly. Then he grinned, very slowly. ‘‘Oh, well— It's only a book.” “I can't think any more," the ad­ miral said. “You might as well go, Zorie.” With a half-hour to spare, Zorie went up to A Deck. She hoped she might see Steve. AU she wanted was to tell him why she hadn’t ■backed him up in his argument with the admiral. She wanted to explain that she considered it a family mat­ ter in which she had no voice. She walked aft. The bar door was open. A smart-looking gray-haired woman was at the bar alone having a cocktail.Zorie hesitated. If it was cus­ tomary for unescorted women to drink at the bar, why shouldn’t she? A drink might steady her. She walked to the bar, sat down on a stool and ordered a Martini. She told herself she really needed it. She needed courage. No matter what happened this evening, she would need courage. Alcohol gave you false courage, but false courage was better than none. Zorie had done very little drink­ ing. The Martini the bartender stirred and placed before her was different from any cocktail she had ever tasted. It was delicious. The icy spicy liquid was soothing to her aching throat. It was almost six-thirty. She paid for her drinks, walked once around the deck to enjoy her glowing feel­ ing, then went down to the ad­ miral’s suite. When she opened the door, her stateroom was dark. She switched on the light. The room was filled with a pale fog of smoke, but it wasn’t cigarette smoke. It was ci­ gar smoke. She supposed that Win- throp Lanning had been here with Amber, and had smoked a cigar. She sat down on Amber’s bed and waited for the phone to ring. She was facing her own bed under which her trunk was visible. She looked at it for some time without actually seeing it, thinking of Steve and hop-, ing he would phone. Zorie was suddenly aware that something was WTong. When she had come in here after work this afternoon, she had pulled out the trunk, put her note­ book in it, locked it, and pushed it back under the bed. But she had pushed it under the bed with the lock facing out. The lock was now facing the wall and the hinged side was facing out. She got up. Amber no doubt had been up to more ot her diabolical tricks. Zorie pulled the trunk out and un­ locked and opened it. The stenographer’s book was not where she had placed it. She searched the trunk hurriedly, but she could not find the notebook. The notebook was gone! It now occurred to Zorie, as she kneeled there with chills prancing over her, that something else was missing. .It was the young Bavarian engineering student’s treatise—“A Critical Survey of the Re-tooling of the Waffenfabrik Krupp Plant for Increased Wartime Production.” She was trying to think calmly. Her first assumption had been that Amber had stolen the notebook and treatise in a final effort to force her to move out of this stateroom. Then she recalled the cigar smoke she had smelled when she first came in. Amber would not be likely to have a key that would fit this lock or the skill necessary to pick it. She must do something, but she did not know what to do. When the admiral learned that his day’s dic­ tation was lost, he would be furious. He would blame her. If she went to Paul, he might spoil everything by doing the wrong thing. The logi­ cal person to consult was Steve. But she did not trust Steve. Whatever was happening, Steve was in it. Her earlier suspicions returned. Steve had lived in Germany and turned Nazi. The Lannings1 in spite of his defense of them, were doubt­ less Nazis, too. And the powerful- looking man with scrubby red hair who had several times stared at her so searchingly—he was obvious­ ly in with them, and that made him a Nazi, too.She recalled how he, Amber, and her uncle had each, in turn, stared at her. Why? It had been obvious that Amber had mistaken her for someone else.One of them had stolen the note­ book and the engineering treatise. They must suspect that she was in some way involved—but in what? It was puzzling and alarming . . . She would, she decided, talk to Steve about it, but not yet. She wanted to think things over. She wanted, first of all, another Martini. Zorie went to the bar. She was drinking a Martini when a suave, familiar voice said, ‘‘Well! I was be­ ginning to think you were being kept packed away in jeweler’s cotton.” She looked around into Winthrop Lanning’s dark, handsome, satur­ nine face. His lids were partly low­ ered and she noticed the little star­ shaped scar under his left eye. Only one corner o t his mouth was smil­ ing. It gave him a sinister air. She wondered if he had gone into her stateroom, opened her trunk and taken the notebook and treatise. She wondered who he thought she was, and what he thought she was doing. “You know,” he said, “I’m awful­ ly curious about you.” “Why?” Zorie asked. Her voice sounded squeaky to her. She was frightened. She was afraid of this man and what he represented, but she was trying to keep it out of her expression. “Let’s sit down and have a drink,” he said, “and I’ll tell you. There is something about you that baffles me.” Zorie wondered what this really meant. He had certainly seen her F r” - S i * Pierre Savoyard said nothing. He stared. in Elleryton, talking with Steve be­ side the telephone pole in the rain. He must know now what was in the notebook, and he must have read the treatise. Instinct warned her to be very careful, to say little or nothing. She wished that Steve would come along. “Why, Mt. Lanning?” she said in a small voice. “Well,” he said, "you’re a beau­ tiful woman. You have beautiful hair, you have heavenly eyes and an exquisite nose and a delicious mouth . . . Why?” “Why?” Zorie echoed. “Yes—why? Why are you doing everything you can to conceal the facts? Why do you wear your hair as you do? Why do you go without makeup? Why do you dress so de­ liberately to hide the fact that you are beautiful.” Zorie’s cheeks were burning. She said as calmly as she could: “I happen to be engaged to a man who disapproves of makeup and frivolous clothes." His eyes and his smile were know­ ing. “Ah!” he said softly. “But it goes deeper than that, Miss Corey. The Chinese have a saying—‘The flower of love does not thrive on tears.’ Something of the kind also applies to loveliness. Loveliness does not thrive on neglect—or on a determination to be unlovely. Do you see my point?” Zorie wanted to say that he was being rude and prying! That how she did her hair, and what she did about ner face and her body was none of his business. “Not quite,” she said meekly. The waiter brought their drinks. “Do it again,” Mr. Lanning said. Then, to Zorie: “With you, I be­ lieve, it’s a state of mind. You are inherently a great actress. You be­ come whatever you wish to be. It’s amazing, isn’t it? And a great tal­ ent.”He was staring at her hard now.. She felt a familiar fluttering in her heart. “So now,” Mr. Lanning said, “you are somebody’s fiancee . . . How did you like Elleryton?” “I hated it!” Zorie said impulsive­ ly-“Ah! Yes. But you would.” “Why would I?” “But why not?” he laughed. “Con­ sider Elleryton.” Zorie drank her Martini. The waiter took her_ glass away and put down a full one in its place. Mr. Lanning said carelessly, “Do it again." He looked rather pleased, Zorie thought, and she wondered why. “My niece tells me you’re doing! secretarial work.” Zorie’s heart gave a sickening, thump. “Yes,” she said. She hesi­ tated, then went on: “I’m helping Admiral Duncan with his autobiog­ raphy.” “Really!" Mr. Lanning said. "That must be very interesting.” His smile was mocking. His eyes were narrow and knowing. Zorie had a sense of something mysterious and threatening and ugly happen­ ing just under the surface. He spoke rapidly in French. She looked at him blankly. “Oh! Don’t you understand French?” he said. “No, Mr. Lanning.” “That’s odd,” he said. “That’s very odd.” “Why?” Zorie gasped. “You might have a command of so many tongues!” “But tell me why?” “Well,” he said, laughing,' “mys­ tery is always intriguing.” Someone has stopped beside the table. “Miss Corey,” Mr. Lanning said, in his graceful way, "this is my friend—my companion—Pierre Sav­ oyard.” “How do you do?” Zorie said faintly. Pierre Savoyard said nothing. He stared. “Miss Corey,” Mr. Lanning said, “is helping Admiral Duncan write his autobiography. She says it is very interesting work.”“Truly?” Pierre Savoyard said. He had a soft, low voice. Zorie felt that she was on trial. She wished Steve or Paul would come along. She was frightened. Beyond Mr. Savoyard she suddenly saw Amber Lanning. Amber was sleek and beautiful in midnight blue. She was walking slowly past. Her eyes were nar­ rowed. She nodded slightly and walked on. The nod, Zorie realized, was meant for her uncle. He had evidently given her some kind of sig­ nal. Zorie felt a chill dart along her spine. Her mouth was so dry sh* could hardly swallow. The waiter had replaced her empty cocktail glass with still another full one. She drank it hastily and glanced at Mr. Lanning, then at Pierre Savoyard. For an instant she saw in his face determination. It made him more sinister than ever. He said in his deep voice, “It has been so nice meeting you, Miss Cor­ ey.” He walked on. He disappeared. Amber had disappeared, too. Zorie felt dizzy. The room had started to revolve. She squeezed her eyes shut and gave her head a little shake. She opened her eyes- . . . She still felt dizzy. “Mr. Lanning,” she said, “I have a date. You’ll have to excuse me." Her voice sounded thick, the words, fuzzy. Those Martinis! How many had she had? Three? Four? Five? Her face felt cold and damp. Mr. Lanning was rising. She could not see his face too clearly. She stood up, hoping she could still walk. She made her way un­ certainly to the door and went on deck. The cool, strong sea breeze felt wonderful on her face. She went to the rail. The phrase “walk it. off” went through her mind. There was noth­ ing to do but walk it off. She started up the deck. Every­ thing had a glassy look. A man in a white ooat and black trousers was slowly coming along the Week toward her. She was sure it was Paul. He stopped a few feet away from her, She could not see his face very clearly, but she saw the anger in his clear gray-green eyes. “Will you please explain this?” he said grimly. “What?” Zorie asked. “Look at you! You can hardly stand up! You’d better take a good long walk.” “With you?” Zorie asked. "What’s wrong,” he said savage­ ly, “with Mr. Lanning?" “Did you see us?” "Yes, I saw you.” “He’s a horrible man!" “But the type you evidently pre­ fer.” He walked rapidly away. Zorie stood looking after him, hurt and re­ sentful. But he was fight. She shouldn’t have had those drinks with Mr. Lanning. She would never da such a thing again. She loved Paul, and she wanted to please him. He carried himsell so well, she thought; he had such fine shoulders, such a beautiful head.She continued along her uncertain course. She felt confused and fright­ ened. The things Mr. Lanning had said, the questions he had asked, had been meaningless, yet full ol dark significance. It was evident that he suspected her of being some one else; that his niece and Mr. Savoyard also suspected it. Why was it odd that she didn’< speak French? Why had he said “You become whatever you wish t« be. It’s amazing, isn’t it? And I great talent.” Why had they stolen the notebook and the treatise? If they were Nazi agents—and she was sure they wer* —of what did they suspect her, o', the girl she resembled?(TO BE CONTINUED) IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY flCHOOL Lesson By HAROLD L.

RELIGION IN EDUCATION LESSON TEXT-Matthew 7:7-12; Luke •' 39-45.GOLDEN TEXT-Ye ShaU know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.—John 8:32. Education without religion will make America a pagan nation in a generation or two. Even worldly- minded educators are concerned about the neglect of and opposition to Christianity in many branches of our country’s educational system. Christians will want to be in­ formed and to act as they have op­ portunity to bring Christian in­ fluence to bear on the education of children. They will want to give their hearty support to Teal Chris­ tian education. I. Seek Wisdom from God (Matt. 7:7-11). We have made great progress in the improvement of educational equipment, in the construction of fine school buildings, and in the pro­ vision of trained teachers. There have been earnest efforts to de­ velop the most effective courses of study adapted to the needs of our day. AU this is conynendable—except for one thing, and that is really a foundational error. We have given little, if any, attention to the de­ velopment of character, without which the skills of hand and of head may be actually dangerous. The­ odore Roosevelt is said to have ob­ served that “to educate a man’s mind without educating his con­ science is to make him not a social asset, but a social liability” (Doug­ lass). The teaching in our schools of the evolutionary theory as though it were fact when it has never been proved has provided a foundation for all manner of denial of God and of the truth of His Word. What shall we do? Surrender? Not at all. Let us look to God for His wisdom and grace. The promise is that the one who asks, receives, when he asks in faith and for God’s glory (cf. James 1:5-8 and 4:3). Prayer is vital in real education. II. Use Wisdom with Men (Matt. 7:12). Education has as one of its im­ portant goals the ability to get along with our fellow men. As the Lord enables us to grow in wisdom and knowledge, it should show in our treatment of those who look to us 'for guidance and help. This so-called Golden Rule is a high standard of conduct which many profess, but which only the grace of God can accomplish in a man’s life. To always be positively doing for and to others what we would have them do for us is far more than the negative thing which most people assume it to be. They reverse it and are trying to avoid doing things to others that they would not have done to themselves. Note again that this is on the posi­ tive and the active side. We are to go about doing good, such as we would desire for ourselves. IH. Follow Wisdom in Humility (Luke 6:39-42). If the teacher is spiritually blind he will lead his equally blind pupil into the ditch. That is exactly what is happening in many schools and colleges. No pupil will rise higher than his teacher (v. 40). Real education makes a man humble. He is not ready to destroy his brother’s eye because it has a speck in it, for he recognizes his own weakness and sin. He needs the grace of God in his own life first; then he is ready to give help to others. There is something fine about the genuine sweet humility of a man who is really educated. He is not pompous and proud, parading his learning so that the populace may be impressed. He is humble and teachable. Real scholarship calls for genuine faith in God. IV. Find Wisdom in Godliness (Luke 6:43-45). Every tree brings forth its own kind of fruit. Christian character is a fruit which grows only on the tree of Christian doctrine. The fear of the Lord is the. beginning of wis­ dom (Prov. 9:10). That means that to be truly educated a man must be a Christian. That which is good and noble and upright can be brought forth only from a mind and heart of which the same things are true (v. 45). An evil man will teach others evil, a good man will teach them that which is good. Hence, the folly of thinking that if a teacher only has a brilliant mind, and is versed in the technical learning of his profession, it makes no difference what his morals are nor how he lives. That theory has brought ruin to thousands of young lives, and it is high time that all who have to do with educational work demanded godly character as the first requi­ site of the teacher and made it the leading subject in the curriculum. “The fear of the Lord is the begin­ ning of wisdom.” How to Remove Partition Between Rooms, Yet Have Separate Units B y R u th W y e th Spears of space but the main supports have been left in.

If we would obtain God’s mercy we must be mercifnl one toward a- nother. This is Scriptural; this is right. No one need expect God to fo forgive him, or to extend to him His divine mercy, if in the mean time he is unmerciful- We have no doubt but that people often­ times want God’s mercy extended to them, and they ask for il, but at tbe same time would not show to tbeir fellowmen tbe mercy they un. donbtedly should. For instance someone does you a great wrong. It is vour desire that he should suffer for it. Maybe you want him punished to the limit of the law. In your inmost heart and soul you don't want the court to spare him the severe punishment you think he deserves. Suppose God should punish you for your sins and evil deeds you are guilty of without mercy, what would be the consequences? Perhaps you might lie in hell. It is always good to he merciful towards our fellowmen. What if someone has done us a great wrong, should we desire his punishment to the fullest extent? Woud it please us to see him imprisoned for life, or sent to the electric chair, or the gas chamber? There ought to be a great deal of mercv used in such a case on our part, because we want mercy from God, and He gives us mercy in proportion as we extend it to others. ‘Blessed are tbe merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.’' This is wha) Jesus says about it. And I want you to observe the first two verses of Scripture that follow the model prayer of our Lord recorded in tl.e sixth chapter of Matthew: "For if ye forgive men their tres. passes, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: but if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your tres- passes.” It is significant that Jes­ us taught us tbe great importance of mercv and forgiveness toward each other following this wonder­ ful prayer. We cannot forgive others if we do not have mercy on them. And if we fail to have mer­ cy toward them, and refuse to for give, then we cannot expect God to have mercy upon us and torgivi us of our trespasses. O, pear read, er, be merciful! Yes1 be merciful. This is life's better way. It is Christlike. It pleases God Says Curent Prosperity Is Lecherous Considering the trend of thought advanced by some writers it would seem that we are glad to accept a lecherous prosperity, during which era my family were jobless owing to governmental restrictions, and cur­ tailment concerning labor. The irony of it was'that when they purchased necessities they with the other 10 million jobless, were forced to contribute to the support of the WPA and the $10-a dav white collar luckv. Shame on a person whs will glorv in a prosperity based upon lavishly, unequally spent borrowed money, secured by the sweat and labor and privations of an unborn generation; and shame on a person who will boast of high wages founded upon the blood and lives of the boys and manhood of our nation. Thev 'sure­ ly haven’t tasted the bitter dregs that I have tasted or are drunken on the toxin of a fallacious prosperity. I would give every hope of a higher wage, every dollar of iusurance ev­ ery foot of land and the comforts of a home if by so doing it would raise the bones of ray boy from the bat. tlefield of Prance and clothe them in Iivingiiesh again.—John S. Hilde. bran, in Winston-Saleir Journal. READ THE AD$ Along With the Newt Improvements, Repairs Davie School Buildings A program of emergency repairs and improvements started last spring on the school buildings of Davie Countv is nearing completion. Made difficult by a shortage of materials and labor, the program has moved along on schedule. Except where critical materials are not av ilable all contemplated improvements will be completed within a few weeks. Before school was out last spring each principal was asked to make a list of repairs and improvements that were of an emergency nature for scb ol plants in each commun­ ity. A work project was set up for each school and an estimate made for the cost of each project, and these projects and the total cost for the coumy were submitted to the Davie County Commission, ers. After a careful examination of each item, the commissioners and County Board of Education ap proved the work and money was made available to do the emergency work While many of the larger and more costly improvements were eleminated or postponed the work has moved smoothly under tbe dl rection of Mr. M. G. Collette, Da. vie County school maintenance man, and will soon be completed. At the Mocksville high school bnilding the plaster had fallen ofi tbe hall ceilings and had to be re- placed with ceiling board. The front entrance and all outs'de doors have been painted, 10 rooms have been painted inside, a frost proof drinking fountain has been install, ed outside, 12 window frames have been repaired or replaced, the mu. sic room has been painted and plas­ ter repaired, and blackboard re placements are to be made in some rooms when a better type of board can be secured. Certain other pro. jects are in critical need but for various reasons bad to be postpon. ed until next vear. Some of these are a heating system or at least a larger boiler, new plumbing fix­ tures for the girls rest room and a modern lighting system for the ba sement rooms. These rooms have long been a menace to the eves of tbe students. The Farmington school needs ad­ ditional space and equipment for the home economics department, ad ditional cabinets, shelves and stor­ age room in tbe class rooms, paint­ ing and rep irs to the toilet facil ities. At the Shady Grove school it was necessary to replace 12 pair of win dow sash, replace the smoke pipe to the boiler, recondition the roof, and replace some of the shades. The Shady Grove School needs additional shades for tbe windows, additional new window sash, addit* ional school furniture and equip- ment, and some painting outside and inside, and repair to the water tank. At Smith Grove school tbe roof of the teachers cottage has been painted with roof coating, the main roof of the building is to be given a coat of roof coating, the gutter- ing repaired, the boiler oi tbe heat­ ing plant reconditioned, and cabin etsatsd shelves in the pantry and closets. Additional shelves and painting needs 10 be added to tbe library, additiodal furniture and equipment added in tbe class rooms and school lunch room, the porchss and floors of the teachers cottage replaced and repaired and painted on the out* side and inside. At the Wm. R. Davie school new locks will have to be provided for tbe protection ot Ihe building, some repairs on me roof, book-cases and shelving for the library. The school needs some provision for a lunch room At the Davie County Training School the new roof has been laid on the main building, new steps and landings have been built, a partition between closet and library removed and shelving and book­ cases built, tbe plaster has been patched in all class rooms and audi­ torium, five class rooms have been painted inside, material furnished and blacksmith shot) built by the agriculture teacher. Mt. Zion No 1 colored school has been painted on the outside, a new foundation built under tbe building, one new door, and repairs to the roof. The building needs painting inside and new black­ boards. Mt. Zion No. 2 colored school is to have a new door frame and new door, two sets of steps two coats of paint on the outside, blackboards shelves and coat hooks. There are additional repairs and improvements that will have to be made out of the very small emer­ gency fund. Such repairs will be of very limited nature It is hoped that by next year all lunch rooms in the county can be remodeled and reconditioned to meet tbe require­ ments of the child feeding program of the Federal Government so thai the children of Davie County may have the full beneft of a well bal anced noon lunch. Such a program will require a considerable amount of plumbing and electrical equip­ ment. As soon as the war has ended and building materials are avail able provision will need to be made for the construction of four major school projects These projects will involve tbe construction of an au ditorium at Farmington school, a gymnasium at Advance school, an auditorium at the Mocksville school and a gymnasium at the Cooleemee school. It Is hoped that some Fed. eral aid may be available for these major prospects so that the county will not have to bear the full cost.

New York, with pend upon popuUr contribution for support and will luunch its attack on Mr. Hillman and tbe PAC through newspaper advertising. " I am convinced that a deep and widespread resentment exists in the public mind against the arrogance of this man Sidney Hillman, who has taken it upon himself to use the high-handed methods of Com munism to saddle upon bis Euro- peon concepts of government upon his adopted country,” Mr. Pollock said.

Green Revival The greatest revival I ever at­ tended anywhere or ever will at­ tend, came to a close in Albemarle on Oct. 8th. Rev Oliver Green had all the converts seated in the middle pew of his great tent aud delivered to them a special sermon “ Paul’s prescription for the cure of Backsliding ” Hefore he was through there were hundreds that were praising God; shouts came from all over that big tent. It was the most like I believe Heaven will be of anything I will ever exper. ience. The most beautiful and sweetest sight I ever saw surely. There wete between 900 and 1 000 converts I don’t think I am mak­ ing it too big when I say there were at least 500 shouting and praising God at the same time. Praise God forever. I never will or never can forget that sweet ser­ vice. God came on ihe scene in a mighty way. God's word tells us. "Behold I stand at the door and knock, if any man hear my voice and open the door, I will come in and sun with him and he with me. We opened the doors of our hearts and Jesus came in. On Saturday night before tbe close of meeting, 173 came down the aisle for prayer at an 0 ld-time mourner’s bench and there surren­ dered lheir hearts and lives to the great God, and it was made real to them that God is a prayer answer, ing God. Amen.. “Try me and see if I will not open up the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing that you will not be able to contain.” Praise His holy name. He did just that. I would to God t..at old America could experience just what we did in ihis great meeting. If they did this war would close in a second. The tent seats 2,800 and it was full and from 700 to 1,000 were standing around the sides. People are getting hungry to hear and see the real works of Gon. If preach­ ers would feed their congregation tbe real word of God, instead of man made stuff they would fill the churches also. I feel that this great revival will last through this world, aud at tbe end at the great separation dav God will say to a great number of Albemarle folks, ‘ I see here on re. cord where you were reborn in Al­ bemarle during the Green revival. Enter thou into tbe joys of tbe Lord.” Yours in His service, A. J. CRATER. Albemarle.'N. C.

JOE MARTIN BUST Republicans aren’t saying much about it, but it is extremely notice­ able that Joseph W. Martin, house minority leader, is not playing a prominent role in the national cam­ paign. Inside fact is that he is too busy trying to get reelected in his own district, where he is opposed by Edmund P. Talbot, former mayor of Fall River and a former sheriff of the county. Talbot is of French- Canadian extraction, a Catholic and a Spanish War veteran. In the 1942 election, the largest city in this congressional district, Fall River, voted as follows: Joe Martin received 11,765 votes, while the Democratic nominee, Lomax, re­ ceived 17,334 votes. Therefore, while the whole district went Republican by 17,000, Fall River went Demo­ cratic by almost 6,000. Already there is a 41,000 registration in a city which cast only about 30,000 votes in 1942. Outside of Fall River, if Martin can be kept down to a 12,000 lead, Democrats figure he can be licked. Martin led outside Fall River in 1942 by 22,000. But in many of the small towns there are powerful groups of Yankee liberal intellectuals who are' close to the Willkie line. Talbot has made contact with the United Nations groups in this area and they are working enthusiastically for him.* * * BIGGER AND BETTER BOMB Army officials haven’t revealed whether they plan to use it yet, but they've already perfected and tested a new flying robomb, bigger and faster than anything the Nazis have ever seen. Fact is, the new robomb was tested in the Middlewest last month, and whizzed through the air at more than 100 miles an hour during per­ formance checks. The bomb has been developed with the aid of the Ford Motor company. Whether it is in production or not is a military secret. Actually, during the last war, Ford produced a heavy robot bomb of his own, but couldn’t find out how it would perform under front line con­ ditions. It has never been revealed, but, in the American part of World War I, one robomb was partially inspired by Gen. “Hap” Arnold, now commander of the U. S. army air corps. Arnold brought his idea to the Ford company, asked Ford to work out a motor to go with it. Ford rolled up his sleeves, soon produced a two-cylinder engine that worked well. Probably if World War I had lasted another six months, the ro- bcmb would have made its appear­ ance 24 years earlier. NOTE—The original American ro­ bomb is still preserved in the Ford laboratories in Michigan.* • * TEXAS THINKS TWICE Before Roosevelt delivered his campaign speech at the teamster’s dinner, he had a private session with Teamster Pres. Dan Tobin, in which they discussed the political situation, especially in Texas, the state that had been trying to make up its mind whether to have Roose­ velt electors or non-Roosevelt elec­ tors on the ballot. "Did you hear Bob Hannegan’s story about Texas, Mr. President?” asked Tobin. “With those electors coming and going he says it’s 'On again, off again, gone again, Han- negan.’ ” Roosevelt observed that he had done everything he could about Texas, but didn’t know what was the matter with the folks down there. “There’s a fellow down there named Garner who doesn’t love you much,” replied Tobin, “but I don’t think he’s going to vote against the ticket. And if Texas does defeat you, they’ll lose all the juiciest jobs in congress, for the best committee chairmanships from the speaker down are chiefly held by Texans. I don’t think they’ll cut off their noses to spite their faces.” Next day the Texas Supreme court voted to put the pro-Roosevelt electors on the ticket.* » * JAP WAR MAJOR JOB Administration leaders aren’t talk­ ing about it but they are privately concerned about America’s reaction to V-E day. They not only fear a possible slowdown of production and fighting spirit, but also an un­ restrained celebration on Armistice day. Noisy street celebrations, wide­ spread drinking and any feeling that the war is over will be most unpleasant for the millions of families who have sons in the Pacific still faced with the big job of de­ feating stubborn Japs. • • • There was strong sentiment with­ in OWI to suggest announcements that unrestrained irresponsible celebration would be out of place, but Elmer Davis finally decided against it. No agency has the right to dictate to'the people how they should receive the news, Davis feels. At the same time, OWI will propose that radio and press carry potent reminders that the war is not over and that we are still faced with Ia major conflict in the Pacific. OWI will point out that war effort must ,replace V-E celebrations. * Japs in M anila Bay Bom bed by H alsey’s Torpedos B— i ifH I j a g ■ w Navy Avenger Torpedo bombers of Adm. William F. Halsey Jr.’s Third fleet caught a large Japa­ nese merchant fleet napping in Manila bay and sank most of the ships, at the same time setting fire to many land installations.

G rantland R ice vGMmAND\ J ? /C E ^ ‘ IT wasn’t always this way,” Billy *■ Southworth of the Cardinals said. "Maybe a lot of people have forgot- ten, but from the start of the Na­ tional league in 1876, St. Louis had to wait 50 years before breaking into the pennant class. That’s a long time for any one to wait, much less a rabid set of baseball fans.” This happens to be true. It was not until 1926 that the Redbirds un­ der Rogers Horns­ by finally flew into the promised land, flowing with milk and world series honey. “But it’s been dif­ ferent in the last 18 years,” Southwortb continued. “Start­ ing back with the 1936 club the Cardi­ nals have won eight flags, not overlook­ ing four world se­ ries titles with a pretty good chance to make it five out of eight. I’m not predicting anything, but it will take some high class baseball to knock ns off.” “In looking over the record,” I said, “The Cardinals so far have played in 41 world series games, winning 19 and dropping 22.” “Yes,” Billy answered, “and a big part of that was due to those Yankees with Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig who beat St. Louis four straight. Anyway in four world se­ ries games with the Yankees the Cardinals have won two and lost two for an even break, which isn’t so terrible when you consider all that Yankee power and pitching. “There’ve been a lot of great ball­ players on that Yankee club—Ruth, Gehrig, Dickey, Ruffing, Gordon and several more. But we’ve had a few pretty good ones on our own. Hornsby, Frisch, the two Deans, Pepper Martin, Terry Moore, Med- wick, Marion, the two Coopers, to make up a short list and I’m not overlooking Lon Warneke. “At least you never saw a Cardi­ nal club that wasn’t packed with spirit and action and color—one that wasn’t always hustling. You couldn’t find more color than Dizzy Dean and Pepper Martin carried along.” Billy SoutJiworth Southworth Is a quiet, modest type off the field but he has plenty in the way of fire in action. His proudest memory is that in the last three years his ball clubs, though losing some 27 men to war service, have yet won over 300 games since 1941. “That shows we must have been pretty well stocked with talent,” he said with a slight grin. “It won’t hurt you a lot,” I said, “when this talent returns to the Redbird roost after the war is over —such men as Moore, Slaughter, Johnny Beazley, Howie Pollet, Bra­ zil and some five or six others.” If the war should happen to be over in a year or so he would have as many stars returning as the Yankees, and possibly a few more. For the Cardinal stars are younger, and youth is a big factor as far as the future concerns those now in service. Southworth knows this. Series Features “You’ve seen a flock of world se­ ries,” Southworth said. (Now we were being interviewed.) “What would you rank as the high spots?” That happens to be a big order when you look back to 1905, some 39 years ago. The first was Christy Mathewson’s triple shut-out against the Athletics in 1905 when Matty limited a hard­ hitting club to 14 hits in three games. Another concerned the Cardinals in 1926 when Grover Alexander, Old Pete, strolled from the dugout after a hard fight and fanned Tony Laz- zeri with the bases full to pull the Cardinals through. The third was Babe Ruth’s call­ ing a home run against Root of the Cubs—and then delivering the same, almost flattening the ball on a line drive. Then there was Harry Hooper’s catch of Larry Doyle’s almost sure homer in 1912 against the Red Sox. Hooper dived over the wire in the fifth inning of the eighth game to make one of the greatest and most important catches of all time. This miracle play won the series. And it . was 90 per cent miracle. Bill Dickey’s home-run blow against Mort Cooper last fall wasn’t any part of an anti-climax. Almost every world series has its spectacular parts. Greatest Backs The debate was—“Who was col* legiate football’s greatest backfield star?” This is covering quite a lot of time and territory. Rip Miller, former Notre Dame star, and now a navy coach, picked Buzz Borries of the navy—“A back,” as Rip put it, “who could do everything brilliantly.” “What about George Gipp of Notre Dame and Jim Thorpe of Carlisle?” I asked the Ripper. I “I never saw either play college football,” he said. “I don’t know.” CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT HOME STUDY COURSE Sensational! New! Magic shorthand, typing course, easily understood. Students!

RELEASE THE STOKY THUS FAB: Zotle Corey, who bates herself for being meek and shy, finds herself railroaded into taking a Job she does not want, assisting Admiral Duncan, grandfather of her fiance, Panl Duncan, to write his memoirs. Aboard the steamer, Samoa, en route to Hawaii, Zorle dances with Steve, Paul's hand* some brother, only to discover that Paul is terribly jealous. Paul refers to Steve as a Nazi spy. The admiral dictates some of his memoirs to Zorie. Steve and Paul are critical. On returning to her stateroom Zorie discovers that her note book and an Important treatise on engi­ neering are missing. She suspects Am­ ber Lanning, with whom she shares her stateroom. CHAPTER IX Zorie came to the turn of the deck and started across. She was outside the Palm Room. She stopped at a window and looked in. The Palm Room was crowded. She saw Steve dancing with Amber. Watching them, she forgot Mr. Lanning. A wave of this afternoon’s jealousy returned. She wanted to cry. She felt neglected and unloved. Zorie walked on. She felt des­ perate. She walked aft on the other side. There was no moon. It was a black night. She found stairs leading to a lower deck. She went down sev­ eral flights and came to an iron bulwark on either side. At the end of this deck were steps that went up. She climbed them. She passed one deck and climbed another. Zorie leaned on the rail and looked down at the water. Ghostly light showed the race and chum of water lashed white by the propellers. Be­ yond was blackness. What was she to do about the stolen notebook? To whom could she turn for counsel? In her confusion and woe, she thought of the cast-iron Buddha on Professor Folsome’s desk—“the gen­ uine jungle wishing Buddha”—and her three wishes. She had wished to be transported to an enchanting land of palms and flowers, of jade seas and singing birds, and of charming people too gallant to take advantage of her meekness. She had wished that Paul would go there, too. And she had wished that she would lose her meekness. Since then, everything had gone wrong. It was as if the jungle Bud­ dha were granting a parody of her wishes. If she were superstitious, she would believe that the Buddha was an evil genie of iron who dealt solely in the cruellest irony. She suddenly tasted on her lips the dust and rust of hi? iron forehead. A soft mocking whisper came out of the darkness just behind her. “Ah-nah!” it said. “Ah-r.sh!” A hand was brutally clamped over her mouth. Another hand went scooping under her knees. She was swiftly lifted to the rail and over it. She was thrown far out. She fell down and down through the blackness toward the churning white water. Zorie was falling through black­ ness as you fall in a dream, falling and falling, never reaching bottom. If you reach bottom, in a nightmare fall, your heart, some people say, stops beating. Her brain must have been work­ ing frantically, because she did not have long to dwell on the horror of her fate. It was like cold claws tearing her heart to shreds. Long before she struck the water, Zorie was fighting for her life. She took a deep breath and held it. Paul had told her that anyone falling from a swiftly moving ship is almost inevitably sucked into the propellers, is instantly battered and tom to pieces by the giant steel blades. She struck the water. The shock of the impact almost knocked the air out of her. The next instant she was deep in the insane churn from the propellers, with their mighty rhythm thumping in her ears. She was a helpless rag of a girl caught in insane convulsions of water. She was violently jerked, whirled and tossed this way and that by savage currents. She felt as if she were being torn apart. There was only one thing she could do to help herself—she could hold her breath. She might be held down indefinitely, sucked this way and that by monstrous eddies. Chance alone would determine whether or not she would be drawn into the thumping steel blades. She tried to hold her breath. She held her breath until she thought her lungs would burst. She flailed the hissing water with her arms. Sie could not draw in her' breath, or force it out. Some water was lodged in her throat, and it woidd not let the air pass. She tried to dislodge the obstacle but it stayed there. But even in her panic, her brain was trying to work out this prob­ lem. Zorie was a fair swimmer. Ordinarily, she was not afraid of water. Ilie sensible thing to do was to relax, to lie on her back and make no effort. So she lay on her back. After a moment, she coughed the water out. She could breathe again. But her heart was still a frantic chuttering in her ears-. She could see the “Samoa” no­ where. It had evidently sped on into the night. Her fate was inevitable. She would paddle about in this great waste of water until she was too tired to paddle about any more, then she would simply sink. Zorie began to. think more clearly. It would have been better if she had been sucked into the propellers and battered to pulp. It would have been a far kinder fate. Zorie thought of Paul, and she suddenly wanted to cry. Poor Paul! He would be sorry, as people al­ ways are when someone has died— sorry for the unkind things he had done to her, and the kind things he hadn’t done for her. And how would Steve feel? And Aunt Hannah? And the admiral? All of them! AU these people who had treated her as a human doormat! A white ghostly glow was begin­ ning to fill the world. It sUvered the tips of the smaU rolling waves about her. It seemed to fiU the sky. It was like the glow that is supposed to accompany a religious miracle. AU this time Zorie had been lying on her back, resting, getting her breath, calming her heart. Now she turned over and faced the glow. It was a dazzling spot of white glare not more than two hundred yards away. It was floating on the water in the direction opposite to that in She fell down and down through the blackness toward the churning white water. which she had thought the “Samoa” had vanished. She cried out involuntarily with reUef and joy. It must be a life- ring! Someone must have seen her go overboard, and thrown the ring! Paul had explained them to her. When the life-ring was thrown into the water a magnesium flare at­ tached to it by a short rope was spontaneously ignited.' Its glare would guide a swimmer in the dark to the ring. She struck out toward it. The flare blinded her. She did not see the “Samoa” turning about untU it mi­ raculously stopped not far away, a blaze of horizontal rows of lights. Then she was blinded by the beam of a searchlight on the bridge. It went off in a moment. She swam steadily. She was grow­ ing tired. Her slippers were gone. She was all in. She had not real­ ized how the shock, the horror of her immersion had exhausted her untU she tried to use her arms and legs. The magnesium flare seemed no nearer. The strength seemed to be draining out of her arms, her chest, her legs. This inability, to reach safety, something to cling to until she was rescued, was more nearly like a nightmare than her moments in the savage thrust of water from the ship’s screws. Then the white flare seemed sud­ denly closer. She put what was left of her strength into a final spurt. She reached the life-ring. But she was now so weak she could hardly cling to the canvas-covered cork. The rest of it was a confusion of shouts and men’s red faces in the white glare, and the rattling of oars in oarlocks. Someone piffled her into a lifeboat. A gruff voice—she never knew to whom it belonged— was calling her a brave kid, a damned brave kid. And she never knew who it was who told Iier in a whining voice that an oiler who had just come off watch had been lean­ ing on the rail of the deck below the one from which she had fallen. She had shot past him screaming. He it was who had thrown overboard the life-ring and then had telephoned the bridge. Zorie’s next clear recollection was of the woman in white. The woman in white was square-faced, rather grim, and very efficient. She helped her out of her tattered rags—all that remained of her white pique dress. Her stockings were gone. Once she was in her nightgown and in her bed, Zorie had hysterics. But it wasn’t a bad attack. Later, the nurse told her she had never seen anyone come through such an experience so bravely. The nurse gave Zorie a sedative and Zorie went to sleep. It was midnight when she awoke. She felt' tense. She ached here and there and there was a faint drugged feel­ ing in her brain—the residue of the sedative. Otherwise, her brain felt clear. Everything felt clear. In all her life she had never felt so clear. Amber Lanning was sitting on the bed across the room. She was look­ ing steadily at Zorie. Except for a ghost of a smile at one comer of her mouth, her face was expres­ sionless. Her eyes were like dark round holes. When Zorie sat up in bed. Am­ ber’s eyes followed her. Zorie swung her feet to the floor. She winced as a pain shot through the small of her back. Her left knee hurt. AU her teeth ached a little. And her right hand felt a little numb. But she could stand. And she could walk. She walked across to where Amber sat and she slapped Amber’s face. “There,” Zorie said softly. She waited for Amber to do some­ thing. She hoped that Amber would resent it. The smile was gone. Amber com­ pressed her lips and stared at her, but she did nothing and she said nothing. Zorie reached up to one of the hooks. It was supporting several hangers of Amber’s clothes. She took the hangers down and threw them on Amber’s bed. She went about the stateroom taking down hangers and throwing them on Am­ ber’s bed. When the hooks were emptied, she emptied one of the closets. Its contents she threw on Amber’s bed. “From now on,” said Zorie in a calm, assured veice, “this closet is mine.” Amber, sitting on the bed with her clothes all about her, said nothing. Zorie now dumped the contents of two of the four drawers on Amber’s bed. She put the drawers back and said, “From now on, these are mine. You are the first person of a great many who are going to learn that Fm never going to be pushed around again as long as I live. You wiU either behave yourself in this stateroom or you wiU get out.” Zorie could see Amber’s brain working in her steady brown eyes. Amber was being crossed. She would now make some sort of ad­ justment, because she was a real­ ist. A realist, Zorie decided, is one who fights others and not one’s self. Amber got up. She picked up a package of cigarettes from the dressing table, leisurely selected one, lighted it. She puffed at It and considered Zorie through the smoke. “Now that I’ve smoked you out,” said Amber, “shall we be ourselves?, I was getting so fed up with yout act—and these gosh-awful clothes of yours. I mean the whole picture.” “Who,” Zorie asked, “do you think I am?” She was determined to say nothing now or ever to this girl about the attempt at drowning her> She was still as determined as ever to spend the rest of her life, if neces­ sary, in finding out who had thrown her overboard. She would be as smart as they were, and as sly. Amber shrugged and lifted eye­ brows and eyes with a wryly de­ spairing grimace. “All right, my dear,” she said. “Keep it up if you want to. I know you’re a great actress. God knows I should. I have the greatest respect for you. I envy you more than any woman that ever lived. You have more lives than a cat. Frankly, I thinli you’re a witch. I’ll be good.” “We might have a ladies’ agree­ ment to that effect,” said Zorie. “Yes!” Amber agreed. “And n0 W( darling, how are you fixed foi clothes?” “I’m not fixed for clothes.” “Nothing in the hold?” “Nothing.” Amber seemed surprised. “I thought you always traveled with * terrific wardrobe. I’d forgotten thaif month you spent in Jugoslavia . . . We’re the same size. You can hav« anything I own.” Who, Zorie wondered, was this woman she resembled? A notorious secret agent? It wouldn’t do to ask questions. And at the moment she was enjoying this arrogant girl’s awe, her submission. This woman she resembled must be much more ruthless than Amber. It would be very dangerous, Zorie realized, to permit Anber to keep on assuming that she was the girl they thought she was. Yet it would be useless to deny it. Amber, Mr. Lanning and the sinister Mr. Savoy­ ard wouldn’t believe her. She wasn’t afraid. That was the surprising thing. She wasn’t afraid of anything any more. She wasn’t even afraid of death. A few minutes ago she had accepted death, and death no longer frightened her. She looked at the jumble of clothee on Amber’s bed. There was one evening dress that looked new. It looked as if it had never been worn. “Tomorrow night,” Zorie decided, “I’ll wear that dark red gown.” “Certainly, dear! Anything I hava is yours!” The phone rang. Zorie answered it. Paul’s crisp voice said, “Zorie! Are you all right?” “Yes."(TO BE CONTINUED) Smart, New Ideas About Curtains And Draperies That Will Aid You B y R u th W y e th S pears 2-TO-l OR 100* FULLNESS FOR RUFFLES.

Just a word to the voters ot our coun­ try, especially the fathers and mothers who have boys in this awful war. I only ask you to take just two minutes each day until the election to think about your boy who may be lying in some far away battlefield wounded or dying. Who sent him? Think of that before you vote for a- nother Dictator or New Dealer. I have a dear boy that is lying buried in the mud of Italy, that awful hell that our bovs had to go through in that place, and all other hell holes in this war Whu sent them? Think of that before you vote. Remem­ ber dear fathers and mothers, you were told that if our.great Commander-in-Chief was re-elected, they would not have to worry about their sons being sent to fight on foreign soil. Who sent them? Ju st. Hon. A. I. Ferree, candidate for U. S. Senate, will address the voters a t th e Cooleemee High School, Saturday night, Oct. 28tb, at 8 o’clock. Hon. Avalon Ilali will address the voters at Fork Comtnunitv Building Thursday night, Oct. 26th Hon L.. L. Wall, of Winston- Salem, will speak at the Advance High School Wednesday night,' Nov. xst, at 8 o’clock. j AU are given a cordial invitation' to attend these meetings. think for a few minutes each day. If your postman would drive up to your door with a telegram with these sad words from the War Department saying, it is with our deepest sorrow that we have to inform you that your son was killed in the line of duty on some far away battlefield. Dear friends, you that have not had . those awful words sent to you, do not know the awful agony of these words that I have bad to go through. Please, friends, for our dear boys sake, think before you vote. If you know the man that is running for office is connected in any way with the New Deal or Dictatur of this country, for God's sake and our children's sake, say no we don't want you and won't have you. I have some mighty good friends and neigh­ bors that I know voted for the New Deal crowd in the last election, bnt I am sure they did not think of the awful sorrows that tber were helping to bring to our happy homes. We all make mistakes sometimes, but let's not do it again this time. We could live on bread and water and live happier with our boys at home on our own soil, than we can with high wages and plenty to eat. What is plenty of money if we are heartbroken and can’t enjoy it. One Amorican boy's life spent here at home for a good purpose is worth more than the whole European country to us. Ibat's the way I think the voters of our good old U. S. A. should feel about it. My boy only had 13 weeks of training and was sent overseas, and sent right on to the front without any further training. He never gat a furlough to come home while he was in camp, and half of our mail never reached him. Just think bow would you teel if your boy had been trea ted that way. He didn't have a chance. Fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters, please think this over before you vote. MRS J. M. DAYWALT. Richardson-Ward Mr. and Mrs. Charles F.

The answer is in braising, long, slow, moist heat cooking which ten­ derizes the meat, browns it perfect­ ly, and gives the meat tenderness and flavor. Pot roasts, short ribs, sw iss steaks, m eats cooked slowly with vege­ tables—all these come under the head of braising. There’s plenty of good eating in this type of cooking, but your meats ire low in point value. Too, they lave the same high quality protein Bs the more expensive cuts, and just ss many of the precious B vitamins (riboflavin, thiamine and niacin), »nd the minerals, iron, copper and ohosphorus. Nowj here are delicious ways of oreparing those inexpensive cuts of neat. Swiss Steak (Serves 6) Bound or arm steak, cut Z inches thick Flour, salt, pepper 1 onion, thinly sliced 2 tablespoons lard 2 cups tomatoes I carrot, diced I small green pepper, sliced Yi cup water Mix flour, salt and pepper. Pound, into steak. Brown steak in lard, add vegetables and water. Cover pan and cook in slow (300-degree F.) oven for 2% hours. Add more water if needed. Serve with vege­ tables poured over the steak. Pork Shoulder Steaks (Serves 3-4) S shoulder steaks Z tablespoons floor Z tablespoons lard I small onion I cup tomatoes I tablespoon Worcestershire Saucen Salt and pepper. Dredge the shoulder steaks in Bour and brown in hot lard. Slice onions over them, add tomatoes and seasonings. Cover and cook slowly until steaks are done, about 43-60 minutes, according to the thickness of the steaks. Braised Oxtail or Neck Bones. (Serves 5-6) I oxtail (2 pounds) or 2 pounds neck bones Flour I small onion, sliced * H cup flour for gravy Lynn Says: Definition of Terms: Braising means to dredge meat with flour, salt and pepper, then brown in hot fat, add water or vegetable juices and cook slowly until meat is tender. The cooking may be done either on top of the range or in the oven. This method is frequently referred to as pot roasting. Stewing means to brown meat in hot fat, add water (more than in braising) and vegetables, and simmer meat until it is thorough-' Iy done. Boasting means to bake in the oven to degree of doneness and is a method used for more expen­ sive, tender cuts of meat. Pan-broiling is cooking in a skillet on top of the range. Fat is not added except to meat pat­ ties. Broilbig means placing meat on an open rack in the broiler and cooking the meat quickly, with­ out water or fat.

Sprinkle inside and out with salt and pepper., To make stuffing, brown celery and onions in the melted butter. Add bread crumbs, mint leaves and sea­ sonings. Stir until thoroughly mixed and place into pocket of roast. Fasten edges together with skewers. Brown breast on all sides in hot lard, add % cup hot water, cover tightly and cook slowly until done, from % to 2 hours. Stuffed Veal Steak. The same stuffing as used in the lamb breast may be used for veal- steak, if mint leaves are omitted. Have two pounds of veal steak cut % inch thick. Spread the stuffing over the meat and roll. Fasten with skewers, and braise as directed for lamb breast. Most braised meats are hearty and should have light accompani­ ments. Try a green vegetable or crisp salad and very light dessert such as chiffon pudding, custard or stewed fruit and berries with cook­ ies. As garnishes for the main dish use parsley, watercress, sliced raw onions, carrot tops or spiced fruit. Do you have recipes or entertaining suggestions which you*d like to pass on to other readers?

THE CHRISTIAN MOTIVE FOR LIVING International Temperance Sunday LESSON TEXT—Psalm 4:5-8; Luks 4:4: John 6:33; Romans 12:1. 2; 13:12-14.GOLDEN TEXT—Seek Uioee Uiings which are above.—Colossians 3:1. Disciplined living should be the goal of each of us. Life is not to be lived carelessly, influenced by chance events or passing impulses. Such discipline of life would keep men from the temptations which lead them into intemperance and sin. A life can be properly disciplined, only as it is controlled by Christian motives. Such a life has— I. Spiritual Gladness (Ps. 4:5-8). The psalmist had faced the dis­ tressing questioning of men who derided him for his faith. They were unbelievers who demanded of him what good his religion did (v. 6). He has an answer, and it is the testimony of his own experience. Those around him sought glad­ ness in the harvest of grain and in the wine which was supposed to give a lift to their spirits. This was their- joy. Well, the man of God had something inilnitely superior. He had gladness In his heart. It was not dependent on outward circum­ stances—it was within. Then note, too, that it did not rest on something that happened, or on some fellow man. “Thou (God) hast put gladness in my heart.” That means real joy and satisfaction. II. Spiritual Food (Luke 4:4; John 6:35). It is delightful to have true glad­ ness, but man needs food if he is to grow and to work. That is true spiritually, for he must have the needed nourishment of life here also. Jesus when tempted (Luke 4:4) because He was hungry saw beyond the temporal need, and declared that life should be controlled by a higher principle. The spiritual has a place of supremacy over the physical in the life of the Cliristian man or woman. The body with its desires is to be subject to the defi­ nite control of the spirit, which takes its orders from God. The explanation of the awful alco­ holic debauchery of our day is found right here. Men have given their bodies the supreme authority and they are driven bj’ the lusts of their flesh. What they need more than legal reform or restriction of sale of liquor (and we believe in both) is the regeneration of their souls by the grace of God in Christ Jesus. Let us bring them the gospel. John 6:35 makes known the fact Aat Jesus, the bread of life, satis­ fies every need of men. Every nor­ mal hunger and thirst finds full sat­ isfaction in Him. Have you tried Him as the One to meet the need of your hungry heart? III. Spiritual Service (Rom. 12:1, 2). “Reasonable service,” says the Authorized Version; “spiritual serv­ ice,” says the Revised Version. Both are right. The man who is really reasonable will be spiritual and will render to God a sacrificial service. Note that it is a “living sacri­ fice" that is said to be “holy, ac­ ceptable to God.” This is not a case of a single act of deep devotion (great as that may be), but a going on in the daily walk to live for Christ. That calls for grace and power, and He is ready and willing to give both to each of His chil­ dren. That experience with God means a non-conformity to the world, which is too little spoken of and less practiced in the church to­ day. The one who professes to fol­ low Christ is simply not to be con­ formed to the ways of this wicked world. There is to be a completely transforming experience of the grace of God, that takes you out of Siis world while you are still in it. IV. Spiritual Walk (Rom. 13:12- 14).Christians are the children of the morning. They walk in the light (I John 1:7). This world v*alks in darkness. No one needs any argu­ ment to prove that point—just look about you. The deeds of darkness are evil deeds, and men dwell in darkness because they love evil (John 3 :19).. That means that the children of light must walk circumspectly and "becomingly” (that's a good word!) in this world. Thus we may attract others out of the darkness into the light, so that they too may put aside “reveling ar.d drunkenness,” yes, and also “strife and jealousy.” Those go together. The way to victory is to be clothed with the Lord Jesus and His righteousness (v. 14). That is a real “armor of light” with which we may be protected. Note also that we are studiously to avoid making any provision for the desires of the flesh. Put such things away, and with them will go the temptation to use them. Some professing Christians need to heed this word by destroying some beverages which they may have Co hand—just to give one example.
