Bailey, of Advance, was in town Saturday on business. Little Miss Nina Hester, of Win­ ston, is visiting RosaMeroney. A. T. Grant, Jr., spent Friday in Greensboro on business. M t. and Mrs. Robert Faucett, Jr., returned to Durham Tuesday. Miss MarvMeroney entertained a number of her friends Friday night at a lawn party. W. H. Caudell1 postmaster at Cooleemee, was a visitor here Saturday. C. F. Stroud, editor of The Hor­ net, of Sevierville, Tenn., is a vis­ itor in the county. Mrs. C. D. Bostain and child­ ren, of Salisbury, are spending the week with M t. and Mrs. Frank Carter, at Fork Church. R W. Crow, of Monroe, was in town last week. Mr. Crow has fallen in love with our town and visits here often. A five-year old son of Banner Clingman was killed one evening last week by lightning, in the wes* tern part of town. Marshall Ratledge, of Calahaln, has returned from Thomasville, where he has been attending Dis­ trict Conference. Thomas Bennett, of New York, is finishing his residence fust north of town. The outside is finished with poplar bark, and it presents an artistic appearance. A meeting was held here Satur­ day looking to the building of a cotton mill in Mocks ville. Mr. Knox, of Mooresvi le, was pres­ ent and talked to our people a- bout cotton mills. The prospects are fairly good for a mill. J. L. McClamroch, of Greens* boro, was in town Saturday and Monday shaking hands with old friends. He has not been in town for more than two years. His friends were glad to see him. Mr. Ed Smith and Mrs. Jennie Foster, of the Bixby neighborhood were united in marriage the past week, with F. M. Williams, Esq., officiating. Miss Sallie Sue Ellis, of Ad­ vance, left Monday for the James­ town Exposition, and sailed Fri­ day for Europe, where she will spend some time touring the old world. Miss Velsie Webb, who has been visiting Rev. Mr. Scales fam­ ily at Advance for some time, re­ turned to her home at Morgan- ton Saturday. Billy Beck, of Qarksville town ship, lost his bam containing a muleaftd all of hiz wheat and other feed stuff one night the past week. It is thought to have been the work of an incindiary. and it’s to be hoped the guilty party will be caught. Hungingis too good for such a scoundrel. There is much excitement in the Calahaln section over a mad dog. Mr. L. P. Radedg* dog was bitten Sy a mad dog about a month ago. He did not kill his dog, and last Friday it went mad and bit him on the hand. He went to Fork Church Saturday and had the madstone applied. The last report was that the stone was still adhering. David Shuler was in town last week and brought with him a strayvbasketmade by Mrs. Aza- nah Carmichael. Her litde seven and nine year old daughters did the platting, and it’s almost equal to some of the baskets made by the Indians. The Faithful Janitor Rev. Walter K Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C.

First to Enlist In a colorful cerem onv at F ort Bragg recently, W illiam Robert B ritt, sou of Mt. and M rs. Bonnie B ritt of G arner, N. C., becam e the first m an in the state to enlist in th e U nited States A rm y for a per. iod of five years under the new en­ listm ent periods. P vt B ritt was born in Zebulon, N . C ., on 25 Decem ber 1926. In 1932, his fam ily moved to G arner, N . C ., w here he w ent to the G ar ner H igh School. H e then w ork, ed for approxim ately eight years in his fath er's store in R aleigh as a w atch repairm an. In 1946 he was drafted into the A rm y, and sarved honorably w ith th e 618th O rdaance Base A utom o­ tive M aintenance Com pany in the Philtipine Islands. W hile serving w ith th e 618th O rdnance Com pany, be was aw arded the W ord W ar II V ictory Medal and the Good Con­ duct R ibbon. H e was honorably discharged at Cam p Beale, C ali­ fornia on A pril 28, 1947. P v t. B ritt was recrui-ed by M S gt T heodore W . M allet of the D urham R ecruiting S tation, w here be was accepted for m ilitary ser. vice H e enlisted for th e O rdnance D epartm ent, choosing the Pacific as his theater of operations.

T IfT h e new m otor vehicle safety law does not compel a m otorist in any direct m anner to purchased nuto m obile accident liability insurance, but as T he G reensboro Daily News observes, it exerts indirect com pul­ sion upou him If he happens to become involved in an accident re­ sulting in serious injury to others or serious property dam age affect ing others; and has no insurance— well, it's ju st too bad. H e may lose not only the right to drive his car hut it m ay bankrupt him prac ticallv to pay off dam age judgm ents returned against him in the courts. T hts being the situation, 0 f course, hosts of m otorists who had not carried the liability insurance before began to bom bard insurance agencies in every town in the State during June. M any agencies did vittually a land office hnsinass for several weeks, and they probably are still w riting up m any Johnny Come Latelys. W e understand that th e decision to raise the rates was made some tim e before th e new highw ay re. sponsibility law was enacted. And it is to be assum ed that the State Insurance Com m issioner gave care- ful study to the plea of insurance com ponles for an increase in rates. As a result of bis findings the Com m issioner was convinced that th at an increase was justified, otherw ise he w ould not have per­ m itted it. But 30 per cent is quite a jum p. Even th o landlords of the nation whose rents have been m ore or less static for several years were au­ thorized to raise their figures only 15 per cent. T he blanket raise procedure also arouses some curio­ sity, since- it Is po sible th at some com panies can operate m ore effi - ciently than others. T he whole business m ay be quite in order. S n e lv our State insurance com m issioner know s w hat be is about. It is difficult to conceive of any failure on his part to go into the m atter very thor­ oughly to determ ine w hether there was a basis of justification for the rate increase asked. It well uiay th at the com panies have been due a rate increase for several vears. But the big increase in rates, authoriz­ ed alm ost sim ultaneously w i,h the adoption of a law w hich m akes it practically compulsoW for m otor­ ist to carry this insurance, and the seem ing fact th at none of the in­ surance com panies w a s going broke on the old rates, are circum ­ stances w hich add up to som ething akin to natural w onderm ent.— T w in-C ity Sentinel. Close The Flood­ gates A s Senator M orrison says, theee are m anv liquor store advocates w anting to get rid of bootleggers, but some of them do not w ant to get rid of them until they hive first set up more convenient liquor stores. If'w e really w ant to rid ourselves of liquor and liquor drinking, we w ould not invite in a new supply by setting up liqner stores, but we should clean up and abate the nuisance we already have w ith us. W e can’t dry up the lake by opening the floodgates and letting more w ater in. T he onlv way is to shut off the supply at its source —dose the gate— and thus stop the flow Tom orrow s. Negroes Can Enlist The enlistment of Negroes in the Regular Army has been reop­ ened, Capt. Cooper, Commanding Officer of the Winston-Salem sub Station, said today. The reopening of Negro enlist­ ments occurred when the percen­ tage of Negro persondel fell be­ low that authorized. The Captain stases that Negro applicants will have their choice of enlisting in the Army Air For­ ces unascigned or in the Regular Army unassigned. Those who successfully meet the same mental standards as white applicants, can enlist for periods of two, three, four or five years. The equivalent of a grammar school education is considered necessary to pass the mental tests. Those Negroes who possess such education and are interested in listing in the Regular Army should contact an army recruiting ser. geant, or apply at the Local Army Recruiting Sub-Station loeated at Postoffice building, Winston-Sa­ lem, N.

Brock, Attorney, Mocksville, C, Somebody Should Tell Him By Corroll Keece “ 5A study of Mr. T rum an’s vetoes if the T ax Reduction Bill aod the L abor Relations Bill suggests that someone m ust have told him there will be an election in 1948 and that fact was prom inently in his mind w hen he wrote, or approved the veto messages. If that is the case, someone should also tell him that there was an election held in N ovem ber 1946 as a result of w hich the Republi­ can P arty now has m ajorities in the Senate and the H ouse. Mr. T ru m an really should be inform ed a- bout th a t 1946 election—if not no other reason than to prepare him for the shock of com ing revela­ tions concerning som e phases of it in his own K ansas City. It is unfortunate for the country that Mr. T rnm an has seen fit to start his cam paign for election to the Presidency in 1948 nearly a year and a h ah before the election. T hat he has done so appears to oe the onlv reasonable deduction from the tone and character of his veto m essages on the T ax R educ­ tion Bill and the L abor R elations Bill. T hose tw o docum ents were about as far rem oved as it is pos­ sible to conceive from the category of serious state papers, such as the N ation has a right to expect when a President undertakes to set aside the will of th e people, as express­ ed throngh th eir elected represen­ tatives in Congress. H ow ever since M r. T rum an has m ade th e decision, th e R epublican P artv has no choice save to accept his challenge P ending the selec tion of th e R epublican Presiden­ tial candidate by the N ational Con veniion, to be held In June 1948, the responsibility for the conduct of the Republican side of the cam . paign devolves upon the R epubli­ can m ajority in the H ouse and Senate and npon the R epublican N ational Com m ittee. It m ay be taken for granted that the Republican cam paign will he conducted w ith due regard for the interests of the N ation as a whole. N evertheless, it will be waged w ith all possible vigor. W e still have the tw o party sys­ tem in the U nited Slates, as Mr. T rum an discovered last N ovem ber, and when the acknowledged leader and inevitable candidate of one of the m ajor parties sees fit to launch a Presidential cam paign at a tim e when he should be devoting his energies to th e solution of m any im portant and urgent problem s he can not expect the opposition to give him a clear field. It m ay be that it would have been better for th e country had the opening of the 1948 Presidential cam paign been deferred until after the N ational Conventions of the tw o parties next year. How ever that m ay be, Mr. T rum an has de creed otherw ise. From a strictly political stand­ point l;is decision is an advantnge to the Republican P arty . H e has served notice on the country near- a year and a half in advance of the election th at is gam bling his poli­ tical fu tu re on the support of the left-w ing elem ents, and th at be has com promised in the face of the th eat raised by the third party gestnres of H enry A. W allace. H e has clarified the is<me unm istakably, and he has allowed plenty of tim e for its full significance to he im ­ pressed upon the voters. T h at is a definite advantage to the Republican candidate in 1948 w hoever he m ay be.

Communists Await Depression in U.S. Conservation Pays Big Cash Dividends Save the Soil Methods fit Purdue Prove Ideal A soil conservation system com­ bining the teamwork of large amounts of fertilizer, contour farm­ ing, manure and deep rooted leg­ u m e s , n o t o n ly saves sorely needed rainfall and reduces the loss of soil, or­ ganic m atter and plant food through runoff, but also pro­ m otes greatly in­ creased yields of corn, w h e a t and A r e hay, according to > Glenn Bedell. Such a s y s te m proved its benefits a t the Purdue sta­ tion. The test was c o n d u c te d in 12 smaU fields from 1942 through 1945. All the fields had th re e -y e a r r o ta ­ tion: com , wheat and meadow. Six, h o w e v e r , w e r e farm ed with com­ mon practices; the other six with a con­ servation system. On the fields which had the bene­ fit of extra fertilizer, contour crop­ ping, manure, lime and deep rooted legumes, the water loss from runoff for four years was eight inches, com pared with 17'A on fields farm ed under the common system . Soil loss was only 1.8 tons under conserva­ tion against 8.8 tons with the com­ mon system . Organic m atter losses were 492 and 976 pounds, respec­ tively, while those of nitrogen were 16 and 77 pounds; phosphorus 19 and 62; and potash, 10 and 24 pounds. Com yields averaged 92 bushels per acre against 62 bushels on the common fields, in 1942. By 1945 the corn output reached 122 bushels per acre, com pared with 71 bushels on the common fields, Wheat yields averaged 23 bushels and 15 bushels. M ore w at­ e r b o o sts corn yield. KNOW YOUR BREED Golden Palomino ByW .J. DRYDEN Reds See Nation’s Economy Gravitating Toward Disaster By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator* WASHINGTON.—There are a good many ways to judge the moods of official Washington. Sometimes you can assay them the moment you read the latest statement of the bureau of labor sta­ tistics. Sometimes you can interpret them in terms of the number of press and radio conferences that are NOT cancelled, or the number of presidential or cabinet fishing trips that are scheduled. Sometimes you can read the story in the Congressional Record or the Gallup poll. But in recent tim es one of the best barom eters of Washington emo­ tions (som e of m y deep-dishers tell m e) is the facial and/or oral expres­ sions of the professional Communists who inhabit the carefree D istrict of Columbia. To help you understand the above som ewhat un-understandable state­ m ent, let m e re­ fresh your m em­ o r y concerning the K r e m l in’s m o s t cherished d e s i r e . T h a t dearest wish, as you know, is a great, big all-out replica of the de­ pression of 1929 for the United States. Let’s step for a moment into the sanctum sancto­ rum of the So­ viet’s No. I boy, Josef Vissarionovich alias Marshal Stalin. The following is an excerpt from the official transcript of a conver­ sation between Harold Stassen of Minnesota and Josef Stalin of Geor­ gia, U.S.S.R., not Georgia, U.S.A.; Stassen: Oar problem now is to see to it (bat we do net have a de­ pression, an economic crisis.

They reveal Stalin’s keen interest in our domestic economy and any prospective depression in that economy. The conversation took place in the Krem lin on April 9 of this year. A friend of mine, a financial ex­ pert m et a Communist acquaint­ ance who w as bubbling over with joy. The reason for his gayety? The fact that he foresaw a real depres­ sion for the United States. L ater the financial m an again m et the Com­ m unist, informed him he was sorry to hurt his feelings, but that there w as going to be only a m ild reces­ sion which would serve to check the boom. No bust would follow. That was the opinion of m ost of the experts—government, industry and labor—-at that tim e. The whole country, despite the fact that busi­ ness was booming, seem ed to be aw are of the dangers of inflation. Furtherm ore, people were in the mood to check extravagances (for exam ple, the Newburyport and other price-cutting experiments). It appeared there would be a slight recession, that it would relieve the labor tension and encourage more efficiency on the part of work­ ers and management. Also, it would adjust inventories, bring down real estate prices so that people could buy homes, reduce the cost of liv­ ing, and in general, take the wind out of the sails of a boom that m ight be followed by a bust. That was in April. Well along about the middle of July, the Communist ran into the financial expert again. Again the Communist was smiling. “Well,” he leered happily, “where’s your m ild recession that was going to take the wind out of the sails of boom-and- hUSt?” He sniffed the breeze blowing off the Potomac a couple oI times and added (as if he had caught the scent of attar of roses): “Smells a lot like 1929 til lit." The Communist "went on, obvi­ ously enjoying him self: “John Lewis got the biggest wage settle­ m ent in his history. Didn’t you say wage increases were inflationary? W hat are the other labor leaders going to do? Didn’t I hear some­ thing about an increase in the price of steel as well as coal? And what about the other side—m ore loose change in people’s pockets? Con­ gress talked about letting the boys have cash for their term inal leave bonds? That wouldn’t do m uch to pull down prices and releasing credit controls on installm ent buy­ ing. And the railroads saying they can’t pay their coal bills without a freight rate increase. Congress tried twice to cut taxes too, right where it would do bigi) prices Iiie most good, Where," he asked again, “where's this recession, and all the serious thought about check­ ing a boom?" With that, the Communist walked off, chuckling in his beard. My fi­ nancial expert adm itted he couldn’t answ er him. “It’s this way,” he said to m e afterw ard, “people feel about infla­ tion the way they felt about sin. Everybody is against it—but they want to get theirs.” r RIDE 'EM , COWBOY . . .

JVBirs REVIEW Greek Warfare Flares; Flood Curbs Advocated ‘Fanciers’ Fancy Fancier Bantams they call the undersized but healthy and handsome roosters, the cocky ones. The bantam breed is centuries old. In China they produced minia­ tures with long and flowing tails to grace the gardens of the Manehus. G reat estates in Europe have been I (or to be honest, m y wife) have recently acquired three new ban­ tam s for our flock. Elm er, the proud cock-of-the-walk,' and his two “tunes,” Clementine and Adeline. Bantam raising is a real industry in the United States. Among my ac­ quaintances, most people raise ban- tams for pets, Elmer, Clementine and Adeline had hardly gotten out H their crate w ltt brnight item all the way from Iowa to Florida where they are now ensconced, be­ fore the ladies were leaping up on m y wife’s arm and eating a piece of bread right out of her mouth. The industry breeds*the birds for exhibition and fancier sale. Striking specimen of a Blne Cochin bantam rooster, bred for its beauty. A bantam is really just a little chicken, bred down by selecting the sm all ones in a norm al breed and m ating them with the “ponies” as decorated for hundreds of years with these delectable little crea­ tures kept for no purpose other than the beauty they could Impart to the landscape. The United Nations security coun> cil, which has yet to meet a tough problem head-on and overcome it, rejected an American appeal for an emergency debate on the Balkan situation, despite reports of increas­ ing strife in Greece.

FLO O D CO N TRO L: 10-Year Program Term ing the problem one of “des perate urgency,” President Tru­ man, in a special message to con­ gress, proposed that a swift start be made on a 10-year, 250 million dollar program to control floods in the entire Mississippi basin and :e me mmw At me river from a destructive giant to a pm ductive force. He strongly implied that the pres­ ent congress should undertake the immense, long-range task before its adjournm ent. A num ber of senators im m ediately threw their support behind the President’s proposal. In general, the construction pro­ gram as outlined by Mr. Truman would provide a coordinated system of storage reservoirs in all the m a­ jor tributary basins of the Missis­ sippi, coupled with levees, flood w alls and diversion channels to pro­ tect cities, towns and farm s in those basins. Also, he proposed that soil con- semtion measures be put into ef­ fect M e i f river on ttie tribu­ taries of each major basin in order to retard the flow and run-off of w aters from heavy rains and re- duce topsoil loss. RACKET: Training Hit Dr. Allan Bates, a Chicago scien. tist, testified before a house arm ed services sub-committee that univer­ sal m ilitary training has become “ a vicious political racket” and will be “ a horrible cancer on the United States.” He cited the fate of European na­ tions in the last w ar, declaring that despite assurances from their top arm y leaders th at universal train­ ing would safeguard them from in­ vasion they all fell before the Nazi blitzkrieg.

IT’S A SWEET LIFE End to Sugar Shortage Seen CHICAGO. — With a record crop in prospect both in the United States and Cuba, assurance that the sugar shortage definitely is over was given by sugar industry spokesmen. Housewives, now revel­ ing in adequate sugar supplies for home use and canning, were ad­ vised that they need not fear a re- I i l l I i I shortages. Private estim ates indicated that U. S. production of beet and cane sugar this year would exceed last year’s production by m ore than 450,000 tons, doubling previous esti­ m ates of the anticipated increase. Cuba, sugar capita] of the world, will produce a record crop of m ore than 6.4 million tons, nearly two milliqp tons larger than the crop last year and one million m ore than had been expected, the spokesmen said. Despite this outlook for sugar supplies, observers hesitated to pre­ dict that industrial sugar rationing would be ended before October 31 as scheduled under existing legisla­ tion. They explained that the beet CM would not be harvested until this fall Meanwhile, the United States will obtain its sugar from traditional suppliers like Cuba, Ha­ waii, Puerto Rico and the Virgin islands. The Philippine islands, which for­ m erly sent this country nearly one million tons of sugar annually, will send none this year because their sugar production has not recovered from the devastation of the Japa­ nese m ilitary occupation. The estim ated increase in sugar production in the United States would place the 1947 crop at 2.8 million tons, of which about 1.7 m il­ lion would be beet sugar and tile rem aining cane. L ast year this country produced 1.76 million tons of both beet and cane sugar, which was about 1 , 1 tons beta an average crop. With supplies of cane and beet sugar now adequate to supply aD demands by housewives, demands) for other sw eeteners are expected to decline. These sweeteners, m any of which were used in w ar tim e as substitutes for sugar, include corn sugar and sirup, m aple sugar and sirup,- honey, cane sirup, sorgo sirup, and molasses.

Fruit Preserving This is the year m any women have waited for—the year when they could obtain unlim ited quanti­ ties of sugar to put up all-the fruit in their orchards, and berries in their patches. For m any of us, it has been so long since we put up fruit in any quantity that a quick brush-up of methods is essen­ tial. As in all big undertakings, the underlying organ­ izational work is m ost im portant, and this can be done the day before. The day before you begin actual canning, check on equipm ent to be sure that it works properly. For fruit and berry canning you will need a water bath, which may be a large kettle or broiler, fitted with a rack, and a tiglitly fitting cover. Or, you also m ay use a pres­ sure cooker for processing, but this is not as essential for fruits as it is for vegetables. You will need several large pans, and kettles for preparing the fruit and for m aking the syrup. You also will need to prepare jars, checking them for cracks and imperfections, and washing them in hot soapy suds. M ake certain you have enough covers or lids. E stim ating Amounts Although fruits and berries vary in size and m oisture content, it is still possible to m ake some sort of estim ate as to how m uch syrup and the num ber of jars you will need. F or sw eet fruits, you will use a syrup m ade' of 2 cups of sugar to 4 cups of w ater; for slightly acid fruit, use 2 cups of sugar to 3 cups of w ater; for acid fruit, 2 cups of ,sugar to 2 cups of w ater is ample. If the fruit is very acid, 2 cups of sugar to I cup of w ater is essential. The syrup is m ade sim ply by add­ ing the sugar to the water and boil­ ing together for 5 minutes. . If you are canning large fruits such as peaches and pears, allow I pint of syrup to a quart jar of fruit. For sm all fruit, or berries, you will need only a half pint of syrup to the quart. The am ount of fruit usually de­ pends upon the size, but ordinarily we count 2 pounds of fruit for the quart jar. IIiis will aid in estim at­ ing your yield. Method of Packing Some fruits and berries are hot- packed, but m ost women prefer us­ ing the cold pack m ethod for pre­ paring fruit for canning as it takes less time. ( If the fruit is carefully packed, there will be little floating.fash and clean the fruit, peeling and coring, slicing and stonihg when necessary. Pack into sterile jars and attach the lid, using m anufac­ turers’ directions. Process by placing the fruits in a boiling w ater bath, m aking cer­ tain that the w ater comes, to two; LYNN SAYS: Save Time, Work, Money With These Hints Lettuce leaves tossed into soup will absorb fat and give you less greasy soup to serve. Remove leaves as soon as they take up fat. Before you broil bacon, steaks or chops, cut gashes in the fat. This prevents the m eat from • curling when it is cooked. •'\ Bits of soap m ake nice jelly which is lovely to use for shampoo, or {or washing lingerie, gloves, hose and other delicate things.

If the w ater tends to boil away during the proc­ essing tim e, it’s a good idea to have a kettle of boiling w ater near by from which the supply can be read­ ily replenished. Count the processing tim e from the tim e the w ater starts boiling. When processing tim e is finished, remove jars (with a jar lifter to prevent burning the fingers) and place on thick layers of newspaper to cool. For many of the new. type lids, the manufacturer does not approve inverting the jar to test for leaks. This is one reason for not inverting certain types of jars. When the jars are cool, wipe them off, label and store in a cool, dark place. Use This Time Table If you are using the w ater bath, which is recom mended by m ost ex­ perts, you will w ant to observe th e p ro c e ssin g tim e very care­ fully. The follow­ ing fruits are processed, for 20 m in u te s : a p ri­ cots, b la c k b e r­ ries, blueberries, cherries, currants, gooseberries, peaches, pears, plum s, raspberries, rhubarb and straw ber­ ries. Apples and pineapple, processed in the sam e type of w ater bath, will require 30 m inutes, while quinces require 35 minutes.. If you are using the pressure cooker for processing, keep the in­ dicator between 5 and 10 pounds pressure and process all fruits, ex­ cept pineapple and quinces, for 10 minutes. The two exceptions will require 15 m inutes processing. , Queries Answered How high should fruit be packed for canning?' Pack fruit and syrup to within one inch of the top. How m uch salt should be added to w ater in which peeled fruit is placed to prevent discoloration? Add one teaspoon of sait to each quart of w ater used. W hat m akes fruit and tom atoes float? v Too much processing, too heavy a syrup or too loose a pack m ay be the causes. Why should fruit for canning be uniform in size and ripeness? F ruit should be evenly ripe and about the same size so that processing wffl be equal. Can I can over-ripe fruit? No, it’s too difficult to get a good prod­ uct. Use over-ripe fruit and ber­ ries for fruit butters as the fruit will have to be mashed and there is enough sugar to act as a pre­ servative. Released by Western Newspaper Union. To prevent mold from form ing on smoked m eats such as bacon, ham and sausage, dip a cloth in vin­ egar and w rap around the m eat. Store in the refrigerator. Use fruit juices for soaking and cooking dried fruits. It will give them better flavor as well as more food value. Cheese stays moist if it is covered with a thin coating of butter before being stored in the refrigerator. Cheese which has hardened and can­ not be sliced should be ground and used in grated form.

Ot The Moody Bible Institutef Chicago. r PR U T H m ust be translated into living, and there is no place w here it can be m ore effective than in the home. We will w ant to m ake m uch ofl this lesson, for it is the only one during the entire year which deals directly with the home. The book of Proverbs, to which we were introduced last Sunday, abounds in practical advice with a definitely spiritual em phasis, a combination at once wholesome and effective. This is the first of eight lessons m aking application of Prov­ erbs to the problems of m odern life. : Everyone in the home has a measure of responsibility for mak­ing the family life what it ought to'be. No one from the smaU child to' the great-grandmother is with- -out influence, and each must con­tribute to the welfare of the home. Our lesson reaches from the young person to the grandfather rejoic­ing in his children’s children. It begins quite properly with- I. Youth Looking to Parents (1:8, 9; 6:20-23; 23:22-26). V O U N G people w ant to be well- dressed and properly groomed. They are interested in that which adorns and im proves their appear­ ance. It is right that they should have such concern. L et us rem ind them , however, that a young m an o r woman should not only be phys­ ically well-groomed, but spiritual­ ly attractive as well. If we should give as m uch thought to that side of our beings as we do to our bodies, there would be wonderful improve­ m ent in the life of the individual and in the home. The child who is properly instruct­ ed, and who is responsive to that in­ struction, is prepared for life no m atter where it m ay lead him (6:22). W herever and whenever he needs guidance, night or; day, it is with him. E vra when he sleeps, he is in the hand of God for blessing. JLet no young man or woman be betrayed into that awful folly of our day which neglects the teach­ ing of parents and of the church. Disaster is ahead on that road —sure disaster, and swift! But now look at the other side of the m atter, where we see . II. P arents Looking After Youth (19:18; 22:6). r P H E R E is a foolish idea current -*■ in our day which says that the way to rear children is to let them develop according to their own in­ terests and instincts, without disci­ pline, or definite guidance. The fruits of that kind of child training are now being harvested in the present crop of juvenile delin­ quents. We have the sad and awful proof before us that children can­ not be reared that way. We are not pleading for a re­ turn to the unduly restrictive measures of some of our forefa­ thers; children are not \ \ ’ by harshness or cruelty. But there is a proper place (or definite in­ struction, for discipline, yes, even for chastening when that becomes necessary.' The larger part, and the m ost ef­ fective part, of this m atter is the training of the child (22:6) and when properly done it brings forth the fin­ est of results in later life. The boy who has been taught and directed right m ay get on a sidetrack for a tim e, but there is ,always the prom ­ ise of a return to the right way. This business of rearing children calls for the b e st' any of us can put into it, and over and above that, all the grace and wisdom that God can and will give us. We have reserved one verse for our final point, for here we find III. Age and loutk Working To­ gether (17:6). OLD men need encouragement, and they receive it In no rich­ er or more satisfying measure than in the delight they take in their children’s children. Young people should remember that, and not fail to give to their grand­parents, as well as their parents, the full measure of their interest and devotion.. But now note that “the glory of children are their fathers,” yes, and grandfathers. How sad it is when a boy has to be asham ed of his fa­ ther or one of his grandparents. That puts on each one of us who has children a truly; weighty re­ sponsibility. We m ust walk worthily before God, and before our children, even down to old age, when our grandchildren look to us for an ex­ am ple of godliness and gracious liv­ ing. May God help us!

First comprehensive study of the Great Plains bison’s lineage is being made by University of Nebraska state museum from its collection of buffalo skeletal remains. The large skull and horns (foreground) are 560,000 years old and belong to the first type of bison to roam the Great Plains area. The skull at left is 50,000 years old while the one at right is a 1,000-year-old buffalo, nearly the same as the present type seen in parks and zoos. Dr. C. B. Schultz, director of the museum, is on the left, with W. D. Frankforter, assistant curator of paleontology, at right. BY THE HORNS Museum Traces ‘Family Tree’ Of Shaggy-Haired Plains Bison WNU Features. LINCOLN, NEB.—The “family tree” of the Great Plains bison is being given its first geologically scientific appraisal by the University of Nebraska state museum. Research com­ pleted in the past eight years reveals that ancestors of the shaggy-haired creatures, which in the 19th century numbered millions and drew hunters from O over the world to the plains of Kan­ sas and N ebraska, first cam e to North Am erica about 500,000 years ago. That was when the second of the three big glaciers of the Ice Age was retreating from the northern G reat Plains. Dr. C. B. Schultz, m useum direc­ tor, and W. D. Frankforter, assist­ ant curator of paleontology of the m useum , report th at their studies thus far indicate two unusual ten­ dencies in evolution of the bison. First, the great granddaddy of them all who came to this con­tinent from Asia was character­ ized mainly by huge horns which averaged 80 inches from tip to tip. But the body of this creature, known scientifically as “superbison,” was less than a foot taller and a foot longer than the present buffalo. Suc­ceeding generations showed only one significant change: size of the horns. They steadily shrank to today’s average oi as inches from tip to tip. The body remained nearly the same.Second, - the bison, unlike other prehistoric animals found in North America such as ele­ phants, rhinos, horses and cam­ els, first appeared on our con­ tinent as a large animal and de­creased in size. The University of N ebraska scien­ tists also believe, on the basis of present studies, that the bison popu­ lation :hhs had its “ups and downs.” The first bison, they say, apparently was relatively few in num bers since only a. few Scattered skeletal re­ m ains have been found thus far in- Kansas and N ebraska. But they increased in num bers rapidly as the clim ate began w arm ­ ing up, and m ore food was m ade available to the growing herds. But about 20,000 years ago a hum an civilization, apparently a race of hunters, m igrated from Asia to this continent, and the num bers of bison were greatly reduced. These tribes, h o w e v e r , suddenly disappeared from the G reat Plains for reasons which are still a m ystery to scien-tists. Alter their disappearance, however, bison herds staged a comeback. The herds gained steadily in size, even after appearance of the early Indians in the Great Plains region. But with the coming .of the white m an, the bison all but disappeared from the continent. The research work now under way at University of-N ebraska is expected to take at least five m ore years to complete. Woman of 75 Finds New Career in Art CLARISSA, MINN. — H er duties as a wife and m other kept her occu­ pied for m ost of her 75 years but now M rs. M abel Radabaugh has a new career as an artist. While visiting a son in Portland, Ore., four years ago, Mrs. Rada- baugh attended a rt classes spon­ sored by the city. Her interest cen­ tered on the painting of pastel floral prints, which are created by work­ ing a chalk-like substance into a m at or canvas. Now Mrs. Radabaugh has a “workshop” in her home here. Income Tax Cited AsAid to Farmers MOUNTAIN VIEW, OKLA. — Do you complain loud and bitterly about that mounting levy which Uncle Sam surreptitiously sneaks from your pockets in the form of in­ come tax? If you do, particularly if you’re a farm er, you m ay obtain some con­ solation from a local banker, who contends th at the federal income tax has helped Oklahoma farm ers. R. M. Kobs, president of the F irst National bank, m aintains that m any farm ers are m aking m ore m oney than before because of the income tax. Paying the tax, he in­ sists, forced farm ers for the first tim e to add up income from the “little things” like m ilk and egg checks and feed sales. “As a result of having to figure their tax,” the banker concludes, “farm ers have come to know just w hat profit they are m aking from som e crop, instead of m erely guess­ ing they’re getting along all right.” $100,000 Cool Grant Remoins Unused for Period of 80 Yenrs PITTSBURGH, PA. — F or 80 years the sum of $100,000, intended to buy coal for needy fam ilies, has been kicking around here and no­ body knows how to dispose of it.

Ric is .going out—to fight, for us. If he loved this woman enough to m arry her, the least we can do for Ric is to m ake her welcome.” Jill’s face was stony. “I love ■Ric. He’s my brother. But when he bends a fem ale tram p here to live with his m other it’s too m uch!” . John I. had come bumbling up behind them . “Confounded young puppy!” he snorted. “He’s got about as m uch use for a wife as I have.” “It’s this w ar. It’s that feeling of desperate haste they all have, that they m ust crowd a lifetim e of living into a. few weeks or a few days,” Julia said. “She can’t be the dreadful creature that Jill thinks she is, she wouldn’t have ap­ pealed to Ric.” “I saw her, I tell you! I had lunch with her.” “Why doesn’t he send her to her own people?” John I. wondered. “Probably she hasn’t any. Prob­ ably they threw her out, long ago. If you’re going to take m e to town, Dooley, we’d better go. The tele­ graph office closes a t nine.” “Go up and put on something else then. You certainly can’t go to town in a negligee and nothing m uch under it. Tell M amie to help you with the zippers. I’m still shak­ ing all over.” Julia dropped on the long seat in the hall. Every inch of her body was cram ped and cold. H er throat ached intolerably. She said, “Should I have told Richard about Ric, John I.? After all, Richard is his father. He m ight have found an opportunity to talk to Ric. He m ight have saved him from this folly.” “They’re both soldiers. Soldiers go where they’re sent. Richard m ay be in Africa by this tim e.” “John I., I can’t bring m yself to turn Ric’s wife aw ay from his home! W here would I have been in that other w ar if you had cast m e off?” “It was you took m e in, Dooley. I was a homeless old m an, liv­ ing in a hotel.” “ You took care of us for years, till we could m ake this place pay. Perhaps this is the way I m ust pay back—to pass that help along. I wish I could change Jill’s attitude. She’s so determ ined when she’s an­ gry and upset.” John I. lit his pipe, puffed it slow­ ly-“You and I aren’t so young any "more, Dooley. You’re young, com­ pared to m e, but you’ve lived long enough to laiow that things pass. Maybe she won’t like it here.” He chuckled. “Could be she wouldn’t like it here at all. You just re­ lax some ways, and get tough other ways. Keep a strangle-hold on your money. Ric’s done a lot of bragging about his family, like as not, and she thinks you’re a wealthy wom- "an. Well, don’t be wealthy when she’s around.” i “How can I be wealthy, "when we both know that if they put low ceil­ ing prices on hogs this year, we won’t m ake a penny?” “If she does come—if Jill doesn’t ,head her off, put on your seediest clothes and get her up at six o’clock in the morning. Tell M amie to chum all the cream , and we’ll live on country victuals—turnips wifi be ready soon, I looked at them today. I can be plenty tiresom e, too, if I put m y mind on it. Any old m an gets to be windy. I’ll talk her to death.” A Phone Call From Richard “Jo)m I., you’re priceless!” Julia smiled again, reached for his hand, as Jill cam e pelting down the stairs. "R eady?” Julia said. “I still don’t approve of this, rem em ber, Jill.” “It’s m y responsibility, Dooley. I’ll sign m y own nam e to the wire.” “I’ll get the keys.” Julia got up slowly. And just then the telephone rang sharply and long. ‘T il get it.” Jill sprang to the receiver. Then she turned back with an odd look. “It’s long dis­ tance-calling you, Dooley. Maybe she isn’t coming after all.” “It could be Ric, Jill. I can’t say cruel things to Ric—I can’t!” She sat down at the instrum ent. She said, “Hello, yeS. this is Mrs. Rich­ ard M cFarlane,” and instantly all the color drained out of her face, and the receiver trem bled in her hand. The voice that cam e over the .wire said, “Dooley, is that you?” Richard! Richard was calling, and she could not let JiU know. She said, “Yes, this is Mrs. Mc­ Farlane,” stiffly, form aU y,. •BY: rTtehti I cpjcUtj IfiiRit Richard’s voice cam e again. “Dooley, I’ve seen the boy. He didn’t know m e, of course.. I haven’t told him anything. You’ve heard from him , today?” ' “Yes.” She had to hold her lips stiff, keep her face calm because John I. and JiU were watching her. “Yes, Captain, I heard from him today. He told m e that he had been m arried.” “That’s why I’m calling you, Doo­ ley. I wanted you to know that I did everything I could. As soon as I suspected that he had this reck­ less m arriage in mind, I had him up before the board and arranged for his im m ediate transfer, but I was too late.” ‘It’s an impossible m arriage, you think?” (Oh, Richard, Richard, why are we talking like this? We’re Ric’s father and m other! And we m ust speak to each other like form al strangers!) But a little w arm th lightened her wretchedness. Richard had tried “ Yes, this is Airs. M cFarlane.” to save Ric. Richard had not be­ trayed himself. It helped a little to be able to believe, again in some sm all nobility in Richard. Richard said, “It’s a rotten m ar­ riage. She won’t do, Dooley. She’s no good. I knew her in the islands. I don’t know, just what I can do, but I’m going to try to do some­ thing.” “But, she’s coming here. That was in the letter.” “Dooley, do the best you can for the present, wiU you? And trust me? I know I haven’t the right to ask it, but I’m going to try to do some­ thing about this. Yes, she’s coming there. She’s already on the way.” ‘Then I suppose there’s nothing we can do? But thank you so much for calling, Captain.” She wanted to cry, “Thank you,-' Richard! Thank you for trying to be a father to your son at last!” But Jill was Ustening. Jill m ust not suspect. Richard said, “Wait, Dooley. I just wanted to tell you. ’ Don’t wor­ ry. He’ll be all right. He’s a fine looking boy. He’s like you. He isn’t going to be like his father. He’ll outgrow this foolishness.” “Oh, I hope so!” She said, “Good- by,” alm ost in a gasp, and hung up. She turned to the others. “There’s no use sending any m essage, Jill. She’s already on her way. That was—one of the captains at Ridley Field. He said he tried to have Ric transferred in tim e to prevent this, but he w as too late.” “So, that’s that! The next move then,” Jill set her chin, “is to con­ vince this Sandra person that Buz­ zard’s Hill isn’t the place she wants to live.” “But surely we can m eet this situation with some grace? After all,” Julia protested, “we’re still M cFarlanes.” “W hat is it worth to be a M cFar­ lane?” Jill cried. “Ric’s a M cFar­ lane! She’ll be a M cFarlane, too. Dooley, if you go soft on us now, I sw ear I’ll tell her that you’re a m ental case! I’ll tell her that we’re too tenderhearted to put you in a sanitarium !” Making Plans For Sandra Julia began to laugh hysterically, tears running down her face. H%r throat convulsed, her teeth chat­ tered, she shuddered and pressed her hands to her face, letting tears pour out between her fingers. Jill looked frightened. “ Dooley— Dooley, don’t! Stop it this minute! I didn’t m ean a word of it. Dooley, I’m going to put you to bed right now. You’ve had enough for one woman to bear in a day. Grand­ father and I will take care of every­ thing. Dooley, if you don’t stop cry­ ing, I’m going to begin screaming, m yself, in a m inute.” “I ’m — stopping,” gulped Julia, swallowing the ragged sobs that tore at her. “I—don’t know why I went to pieces like this. I never do cry. I haven’t cried in years!” “I could kill Ric for doing this to you! He lied to m e, when I went down there. I was furious a t him. But—to do a thing like this, not to have any pride for his family— Please, Dooley, don’t begin again. Come upstairs with m e. I’ll get you some hot m ilk and a sedative tab­ let.” She followed Jill meekly. She lay on her bed, where the dying light of Septem ber dusk cam e through the branches of the great trees. She drank w hatever Jill brought her, she was grateful for the cool cloth laid over her eyes. She was aw are of John I. in the room, felt his wor­ ried eyes upon her, wanted to com­ fort him and was too numb. She did not talk, because her spinning brain was so full of cries that m ust not escape her lips. Because her ears were hearing Richard’s voice again, calling to the old ache with­ in her, touching that old tenderness that had never healed. “Dooley, trust m e!” (Oh, Richard, Richard, why did you come now, so tragically too late? When he needed you, when he was little,-when I was so alone, where were you then, Richard? He had no father to teach him honor, no one to teach him to be strong. Now it’s too late, Richard, forever too late!) It was with trepidation that Julia m et the train next afternoon. She had got Ric’s room ready that morning. She had im pressed upon M amie that M rs. Richard Mc­ Farlane, Jr. would be tired when she arrived, and it would be kinder not to ■ cook cabbage or anything else that sm elled up the house. She had talked to John I. “If she should turn out to be a nice person, John I., do try to re­ strain Jill a little, will you? I do hope we can m eet this situation as nice people.” “Jill and I will be so nice you’ll adm ire us,” the old m an promised. “Only don’t you get in our way.” T hat sm udge of sm oke down the shim m ering V of the rails, was it another cloud that would lie darkly over her heart? She walked out to the track. She set her face in her best im itation of a welcoming smile. “ Don’t you dare dress up, Dooley,” Jill had warned. And Julia had countered, dryly, “You’re still here, Jill? I thought you were ' leaving us forever, if Ric’s wife entered this house?” “I decided that it would be crim ­ inal to desert you. You’re such a softy, Dooley, that you’d let her walk all over you,” Jill said. “ I’ll give her two weeks. But if she’s still hanging around after that, I m ay go to Washington and get a jdb. Boots P allner knows a con­ gressm an.” “ All right, Jill. But try to be a lady for those two weeks. After that I won’t raise any objection, whatever ypu w ant to do.” Perhaps, Julia was thinking as she watched the engine thunder to­ ward her, Sandra wasn’t too happy either. Perhaps she had let love rush her off her feet, and now she was being shifted off on people she did not know, whom she m ight sus­ pect did not want her. But would a woman who had been m arried be­ fore be swept off her feet by a boy? Jill could be wrong after all. This m ight be a girl whom Ric had m et later. She held to that hope till the train ground to a stop, then sur­ rendered it, resignedly. Sandra Arrives At the Farm That had to be Sandra getting off. Julia’s heart gave a sick flop. Small, blonde, no girl for all the, soft curls, the delicate make-up. The face under the clever hat had been w ritten upon grim ly and a bit1 cruelly by life. Julia went forward. “You m ust be Sandra? I’m Richard’s m other,” She felt that slow blue gaze trqiVel over her, moving anxiously, but the voice, too young and limpid for that throat, cried, “How nice of you! I was afraid you m ight not get m y telegram .” “It cam e this m orning. I’ll have- som e one see to your ba(gs. Are all these yours?” “They do look a frightful lot, don’t they? That’s because since the w ar began I’ve had no real home. I’ve lived in a trunk. I have a trunk, too. Do you think it could be here?” “We’ll ask.” Moving across the platform , Julia felt th e im p a c t of watching eyes upon her.- -The eyes of women she knew well, women who knew to a day how old Ric was, and she knew that they w ere seeing, too, with pitiless, fem ale clarity, that for all the illusion of youth Sandra Calvert had achieved, artifice had put up a losing battle with tim e. It would be all over town in no tim e that Ric M cFarlane had m arried a peroxided old hag, she Was certain. , •’ ’ She said, “ I’m- so sorry we have to take you out in the station- wagon, but we've put up the cars for the duration.” (TO BE CONTINUED) N E E D L E W O R K P A T T E R N S Mile-a-Minute Crocheted Cloth Kitten Votholders Excellent Gifts * V * * * * S i • » i' P P 5321 5 3 1 3 E asily Crocheted Cloth , 'T 'H IS handsom e tea cloth is called “m ile-a-m inute” — you can m ake it so quickly!

U'fe Srari'tf. J Story With a Tlor-! ■ ' One tim e there was a youm >"r~ the younger son of a wc.'.-to-t' farm er. Times were good, pricc were high. It was a period < prosperity for everybody. Appa: ently, spending had become a h a t'- with most of the folks in that con- munity. At any rate, this son sav . that others were having a good tirr . spending money. Since everybody", doing it, he thought, why shouldn I enjoy myself? So this fine young m an who had all the opportunities one could wish for, and a brilliant future in sigh:, kept after his father until one da;- "the old m an settled him off” with a good deal of money. This coun­ try boy then went to town and sc' out to have himself a better tirrv. than he had ever had before. H - spent m ore money than he had ever spent before. Friends were numer­ ous. Playboy super-de luxe, thi: young m an had sw arm s of lad; friends. But they required money He Achieved Wisdom Now, you are wondering, if ycr have read this far, whether thi m isguided and pam pered lad eve quit spending. He did. He qui spending when a depression set in : for that was the tim e when he foun< him self unable to obtain any m on money. At this point, our broke: down playboy began to think. Wis dom was forced upon him and h< learned the hard way. He fount he couldn’t even buy a sandwich and panhandling was out of thr question. Rather than starve, he took a farm job feeding pigs. If this lad had done what sonu of our so-called statesm en advocate, he would have continued to borrow and spend. But having thought the m atter throusrh, he went to work, even though his hunger was scarce­ ly outdone by that of the p:gs hf was sent to feed. Up had spent all. and he was in want. You m ay rear the rest of this story in Lnke 15 for it is the story of the Prodisai Son who finallv cam e to his sonses. No Money M!!l M ust we as a nation spend al' that we have before we come to our senses, like the Prodigal Sort? With signs of depression approach­ ing, we continue to spend and KtwW apparently from habit. Doing little or nothing about our r^cnptroi:? na­ tional debt of $260,000,000,000, we continue to look around trying to find things for which to appropriate money. It is easy to justify any and every expenditure. Constituents in each and every community represented by Senator Bloake and Congress m an Doake can s~out a whole boo!; of reasons why this or that pet proj­ ect m ust go through. Folks are in­ clined to think that the money for the whole thing is a gift, just because they don’t see where it comes from. But the founding fathers did not leevo at Washington a mill which flows out perpetual dollars. Day of Beckoning Maybe it’s not a nice thought, but you can’t keep on spending money without knowing whsre it’s coming from . This was a fact the Prodigal Son discovered. Neither can you safely m anufacture currency to car­ ry through your spending projects. Either course will soon lead to dire results. A day of reckoning will come to a country that spends all it has, just as it did to the Prodigal Son. Let us have m ore wisdom than the Prodigal, who found that he could repent only when hard tim es struck him. Our spending, as opposed to sav­ ing, has created a situation that calls for the best brand of intelligent cit­ izenship. It is already tim e to go to work. Without being penny wise and pound foolish, we ought to adopt fiscal policies that will cut down our growing debt. There’s no prospect of doing this unless we do it while tim es are good. Uncle Sam Says Everybody knows it pays to buy C. S. Bonds. But not everybody knows how much It pays. By invest­ ing as small a sum as $2.50 a week in U. S.

T h at we have reached one of the m ost serious problem s in regard to th e youth of our nation surely is plain to every sensible, w ide-awake observer and th in k er M illions of yonng people today are w ithout C hrist. M ultitudes of them have grow n up In hom es of sin and wick­ edness. T hey nave never heard their parents pray. T hey know nothing of a fam ily altar. I f they even have a Bible in tbe borne it is surprising to realize how little the average high school student today, or even college student, know s a- botit the Bible. W hat m any of them have beard in regaod to the blessed Bible is som ething against it. A theism , Cotnm nnlsm , haters and opnosers of G od’s W ord, have pre jud ced thousands of young people against the B ible,. and against its wonderful troths. M illions of children and yonng people today are w ithout religions training. T hey are in irreligious hom es, and never go to Sunday School, nor attend church. M any of them care nothing for C hristian­ ity. T hey have been prejudiced a. gainst the C hristian religion, or live in an environm ent th at ignores C hristianity. It is true that some hear the Gospel over the air and accept It, while others refn.ee to hear it, b,it allow everything w orld, v to flood their homes, m inds, hearts and sonls. E -ety evil possible, it seems, is bidding for the youth of today. The ungodly move attracts millions aw ay from the chnrcb, gets their m oney, and then helps send them forth to com m it crim e. T he great producers of intoxicants, and the m anufacturers of tobacco, bid tre­ m endously for the I ves and sonls of our young people So does the publisher, or publishers, of vile li­ terature, along w ith those who put out other m eans of attracting them oy m illions, all of w hich is fot their m oney, their virtue and their char acter. T his m akes vouth a trem endous problem to the nation. T hinking m en. honest, conscientious m en; men w ho love God and m ankind, and love out country and its wel­ fare, and that are very anxious a- bout tbe welfare of m ankind for m ankind for tim e and eternity, ate greatly, G R E A T L Y concerned with the youth problem of today Juvenile delinquency is a m uch dis cussed question w ith godly people, and even m any who do not profess to be godly, but are m oral and ’ w ant to see ti e young people m or­ al and upright. M ultitudes of our law violators and crim inals are young people entering tbe teen age, and on through th e teen age. P arents are largely to blam e for this, and m aybe in OS'Iy to biam e, because of th e sinful, wicked lives they have lived before their child­ ren. C hurches are also to lilame because they have so com prom ised w ith the e'*iel, sinful world untl thev have no influence over ntulit- ttilcs of yontb toward leading them to Christ and into the Chris- tian religion. School teachers are Iargeiy to blam e also because of their ungodly lives, and m uch of w hat they teach in our public schools, T hev set such exam ples before ten of thousands of our young people until they lead them aw ay Irom Gnd and into wicked­ ness. T hen men and women who are only concerned about m any, and gratifying the lusts of the flesh, are greatlv to blam e. So m any have no concern for the w elfare of our young people, but rob them af their m oney virtue and character. AU of this goes to m ake a great problem for the nation And even m aov of our leaders are so ungodly uutil they help to curse our youth. A letter has ju st' reached me from a lady in one oor training schools in w hich she says: " I spend all my tim e w ith w ayw ard boys. W e have 330 very dlscour aging ones. S o m etim esw e g eto n t of h eait trying to get them to do right. I work in the hospital and have to help w ith all kinds of boys. I don’t go to church any m ore be­ cause I can’t leave the w ork here. I wonder if you have a book of poem s vou could sell me. I think if I could get them to read some thing like th at m aybe it would help some ” W ill say that I have sent this lady several copies of my hooks for distribution am ong lhp boys of this institution, though not books of m y poems, as m y supply ot those is exhausted. If some of our read­ ers would invest a little in books for such institutions, or put good books in the hands "aud hom es of young people, it m ight do a world of good. I shall be glad to send m y own books if you will help pay for them . Army News White former servicemen of the Army, Navy, Marines or Coast Guard may enlist in the United States Army for initial assignment to the European Command, pro­ vided they enlist in the grade of Staff Sergeant or lower, accord­ ing to a statement made today by Captain W. E. Cooper, command­ ing officer of the Winston-Salem Sub-Station of the Army Recruit­ ing Service located at Room 242 P. O. Building. This new enlist­ ment directive becomes effective on August 1, 1947. Enlistments for the European duty (including the Mediterrean Theatre) will be in the Regular Army unassigned for initial as­ signment to the European Com­ mand unassigned, and will be for periods of three, four, or five years. Men enlisting under this direc­ tive who have been discharged more than 20 days will be order­ ed to the Fifth Infantary Division at Fort Jackson, where they will reported immediately available for shipment to the European Com­ mand. Men enlisting under this directive who have been discharg­ ed less than 20 days will be order­ ed direct to Camp Kilmer, N. J., fo r immediate shipment 1 0 Europe. According to the Captain, this will be good news to many form­ er service-men who desire duty in Europe. For quite some time now, the European Theatre has been closed to enlistments.

Frank Stroud, publisher of the Davie Record, at Moeksville, has just observed the forty-eighth anniversary of the founding of his newspaper. In an editorial summary of the progress in Davie county since he purchased The Record forty years ago, attention is called to the fact that there are now seventy-five fine dairy farms, whereas there wasn't one in 1907. In explana­ tion of this, Editor Stroud, who was Hickory trained and married a Hickory girl, states: “Some thirty-five years ago we carried several delegations of farm­ ers and cattle men to visit the big Dutch Dairy farms in Catawba county, and got them interested in the dairy business and register­ ed cattle. We feel that The Re­ cord deserves credit for the start of the dairy business in this coun­ county. We have spent forty years in helping to build a better town and county in which to live, and feel that our efforts have not been in vain.” Things To lhink About V V n y M o tf-x p u * S - I p f T i i « n p*‘lf In RifX Iiij Tnv t 111 will* * oni when the .»1 ihr Lord’s boose shMl be established above the top of the m ountain, and m any will sav come let tis go up to the m ountain of the L ord's house.

FO ST E R . Reward For Service For taking and giving bribes, former Congressman Andrew J. May and the Garssons brothers were sentenced to from eight months to two years in Federal prison last week. They got off light, and it will be a year or more, if at all, before they start their sentences, for they will use every delaying tactic the law allows. And if they ever land in prison, they will serve probably no more than half their minimum sentences. And after that, Mr. May, for his “valuable” service to the gov­ ernment, will draw a pension of $3,000 a year for life. Thus we reward our delinquent public servants. How, then, shall we reward the faithful ones?— Statesville Daily.

If so, you’re wrong. You’re overlooking the nodular worm. The USDA says the nodular worm is perhaps the m ost common worm parasite of swine, and that in some states, practically all hogs raised under ordinary conditions m ay be infected. R esearch workers in anim al para­ sitology are beginning to suspect that nodular worm injury to hogs is far greater than was heretofore believed. Nodular worm infections cause considerable losses to the m eat industry because the intes­ tines studded with nodules, result­ ing from nodular worm injury, are weak and tear easily, and this de­ stroys their value for use as cas­ ings. These losses, of course, are This plywood self-feeder con­ taining phenothiazine will aid in ridding hogs of nodular worm s. passed along to the hog raiser in the form of lower prices. Hoga entertain four species of nodular worms. The nodular worm gets to be only about a hall inch long, hence is not as readily seen as the roundworm, which gets to be as thick as a lead pencil and more than a foot long. Hog raisers see­ ing roundworms m ay blam e them for trouble caused by the sm aller, harder-to-see nodular worms. Phenothiazine is the only effective rem edy for removing nodular worms. It destroys m ore than 90 per cent of them . Phenothiazine is easily given in feed—in fact, that is the safest way for a hog raiser to adm inister it. Cattle Hom -Fly Trap Considerable success has been at­ tained in Australia using a horn-fly trap constructed in a gateway or Ian? through which the cattle must pass once or twice a Jay. Tie pas­ sageway through the trap is 33 Inches wide and 100 feet long. The glass in the roof is coated on the inside with DDT and protected from the cattle by coarse screen J g r i j f r i Type of cattle horn-fly trap rec- ' om mended by M acdonald college. wire. The anim al passing through the trap has to brush between and under two sets of curtains, and eight weighted strips, brush her legs and belly, dislodging the flies which rise to the light and contact the treated glass. Anaplasmosis Gains Foothold on Range Anaplasmosis is a febrile, infec­ tious disease, transm itted from sick or carrier cattle or by ticks, horse­ flies and other biting insects. Young anim als are seldom affected. The treatm ent is still in the ex­ perim ental stage and is largely a veterinary problem. Animals af­ flicted with the m alady should be kept in the shade, given plenty of clean w ater, a little green feed, and protected against flies. Intro- venous injection of m ercurochrom e has been used with success as well as a modified sodium-cacodylate treatm ent. Remedy for Black Rot Disease Among Grapes Use of bordeau m ixture 4-4-100 plus one pound of rosin fish oil soapper 100 gallons of spray mixture is recom m ended for those vineyards w here black rot and downy mildew have been serious. This spray is applied just before bloom, just after bloom and two weeks after bloom. If rainfall is above norm al, it m ay be necessaary to m ake a fourth application two weeks after the third treatm ent. 1948 Campaign Maneuvers Started Top Republicans Are Angling For Presidential Candidacy By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator. WASHINGTON.—M ore than two weeks before congress ad­ journed, the last bit of fight w ent out of it and it looked very m uch as though it would glide rapidly but sm oothly to an unperturbed finish. Then the Missouri scandal raised its ugly head. Sen. Jam es P. Kem (Rep., Mo.), insisted that he was going to present his resolution, S. Res 150, to investigate the justice departm ent’s handling of the alleged Kansas City vote frauds in 1946. This, despite the fact that the judiciary comm it­ tee of the senate already had decided against such a probe. To the Republicans this was by <§>—----------------------------------------------------- which is insisting stubbornly : "W e’ll win with Taft.” They m ay adm it if you put them in a corner that they can’t “win with Taft now,” because of the positive evidence re­ flected in the Trum an poll and the negative evidence revealed in the Taft poll. But, they say, "Taft hasn’t started to campaign. When he does he’ll change all that.” r:an unpleasant dish to have on the fire H for they intend to m ake it one of the pieces de re­ sistance of the c a m p a ig n . But they didn’t want to start it cook­ ing before ad­ journm ent for they realized that while too many cooks can’t spoil t h i s b r o th , i t m ight m ake ev­ erybody late for Bankhage dinner — dinner back home. The Democrats, of course, were set to fight it and some of the Re­ publicans, rather than prolong the battle, wanted to forget it for the present. It couldn’t be entirely neglected for, despite violent digging on the part of the Republican and Demo­ cratic national committees, no real­ ly luscious campaign issue has been unearthed. The Pendergast issue will be used but it cannot be depended upon as a m ajor weapon in the battle of 1948. At present the Republicans, al­ though they are optimistic enough concerning the final victory, realize that it canfiot be achieved without some heavy artillery capable of smashing the Democratic defensive, the strongest feature of which to date is the poll—the poll that showed in July that Harry Truman still had a 54 per cent popular m ajority. That is why a lot of politicians on Capitol Hill are saying: “We’ll win with Dewey,” not just, "W e’U win." You’d be surprised to see how m any good Dem ocrats turn sadly away, without replying to the Re­ publican boast. There is one group, of course, How about Warren of California, toward whom those who like neither Taft’s conservatism nor Stassen’s liberalism nor Dewey’s deweyism are looking hopefully? Well, there is one story that W arren couldn’t possibly swing the No. I place and that he doesn’t want the No. 2 job— that what he does want is the at­ torney generalship. At this writing nobody is afraid of the formation of a third party by the left-wingers who would fol­ low WaUace in the hope of building him up for 1952 or m erely to spite everybody else. As to a "revenge” labor vote for the Taft-Hartley act, Taft’s friends are going to insist that he was the m an who saved it from being a really vicious anti-labor weapon. Shortly after the veto was over­ ridden, he indicated that the clauses which muzzle the labor press and prevents them from expressing their political views should be am putated. In fact, some people who are much farther to the left than Taft, in both parties, insist that this biU is going to lose its terrors with time, that familiarity will bring, not con­ tempt, but the realization that it m ay be "used” by both m anage­ m ent and labor to their advantage just as the railway labor act, much- belabored in its early days, eventu­ ally becam e a useful all-around gad­ get. Meanwhile, the White House con­ tingent has not been heard hum­ ming Tosti’s “ Goodbye.” Serving the Public W hat does the word “advertise” m ean to you? Does it m ean “to warn, to give notice to, to inform, to notify, to m ake known to” ? Or does it m ean some sort of high- powered skull-duggery involving sky- scratws, HoDywood U e s l kill boards and singing commercials? W ebster (not the senator, the gen­ tleman who wrote a dictionary). The other concepts are the result of a rash of lampoonery of advertising which, while some of it- m ay con­ tain a grain of truth, looks to me like biting the hand that is not feed­ ing you. The big, bad novel about adver­ tising at its blooming worst was called “The Hucksters,” a best sell­ er highly salted with erotica which has been turned into a movie. There is no accounting for tastes, and I won’t object if you see the picture and like it. AU I ask: “ Don’t ac­ cept the advertising- sequences as the literal truth. There is much about advertising I could loudly decry (and often do) at the risk of biting the hand I men­ tioned a paragraph or so back. But there are "hucksters” who are un­ dertaking projects of a very decent sort of which you m ay not be aware. Maybe in these past few months you’ve asked yourself: Why doesn’t somebody DO something about a lot of things. Something about the people killed or injured in automobile accidents every year. Something about housing. The war ended two years ago. Yet the land of the free still isn’t providing homes for the brave. Shame on all of us! Something about the shortage of m edical services. Patients are neg­ lected, hospital wards closed be­ cause the nation desperately needs nurses. Training them is a long- range, national job. Something about world trade. Our economic future depends on unham­ pered world trade. Yet pressure groups m ake our world trade a foot­ ball for selfish interests. Something about - the nation’s health. Between the ages of 15 and 34, tuberculosis is our greatest kill­ er. At any given tim e, 500,000 peo­ ple have it. But they don’t know it. Alarming? You bet it is. Something about our kids. Your children are getting a rough deal in school. Too few teachers. Too antiquated equipment, old textbooks or none at all. Make you m ad? It should. What has all this to do with ad­ vertising? Just this: The above words were copied from an adver­ tisem ent, a fuli-page advertisem ent in a recent New York Times, and perhaps other papers by this time. It isn’t an ordinary ad. It is not directed prim arily to the people without homes, without nurses, it is directed to the persons and organi­ zations who can help bring these facts home to the general public—to you It is I ad A n bj aid about the Advertising Council, con- b most everybody is conscious but about which'few people know the details. It is an operation based on giving away w hat the givers ordinarily sell —advertising space, advertising ideas, advertising copy. It answers the question: “Why doesn’t some­ body DO something?” The reply is —it’s given in works as well as words—“Somebody IS.” The council grinds nobody’s axe except yours, the public’s, seeks no profits, asks no expense account, has only one objective: To m ake Amer­ ica a stUl better place than it al­ ready is. ’ The Advertising CouncU was bom a week after P earl Harbor when Donald Nelson, about to take over chairm anship of the w ar production board, called in a group of advertis­ ing executives and discussed with them what the average citizen could do to help victory—and incidentaUy, what would m ake him do it. Now you are reading and hearing the results of the councU’s peace­ tim e efforts—they are embodied in the various forms of advertising of m any firms, as spots on the radio, m any other places. The councU is providing suggestions, ideas, radio fact sheets and other m aterial to m em bers of business firms, unions, civic groups and other ,citizens who can put that tremendous power, ad­ vertising, to work personalizing big national problems. r NOSTALGIC SCENE . . . A scene dear to the hearts of old-timers is that of m ares at the watering trough. These three Percherons are typical of the m any blue-bloods who will be rounded up from farm s throughout the U. S. to compete at the National Percheron show August 23-29 at the Ohio state fair in Columbus. N E W S R E V IE W Aid to Poland Cancelled; Reds Delay Jap Treaty POLAND AID: Canceled PoUowing a report by a U. S. sur­ vey mission that Poland has enough food to m eet her minimum require­ m ents at least for this year, the state departm ent canceled Poland’s share of the 350 million dollar Am erican relief program . In its announcement, the state de­ partm ent said that special item s, such as m edical supplies and sup- lem entary foodstuffs for particular groups, could be supplied Poland through private relief agencies and other organizations. The announcement added: “In view of the above and of the fact that funds available are suffi­ cient to meet only the most urgent relief needs, it has been decided not to undertake a relief program for Poland.” Next on the list, according to in­dications, might be Hungary, where better crop prospects are in sight. The state department said that the decision to cut off reUef to Poland was based entirely on the relative needs of European coun­ tries. No official comment was m ade on the fact that Poland is weU within the Soviet sphere of in­ fluence and that Hungary is defi­ nitely Communist-dominated. NEW SPLIT: Peace Treaty Russia’s rejection of the United States proposal for drafting a Japa­ nese peace treaty is showing up asanother breach in the already badly weakened structure of American- Soviet unity, • In addition, It may delay Indefi­nitely work on a peace treaty for Japan which, the United States con­ tends, is an absolute necessity if the conquered nation is to get back on its economic feet. American proposals for begin­ ning the task of writing a treaty on August 19 were turned down by Moscow on the grounds that the U. S. was attem pting to a c t' uni­ laterally and without having m ade any previous agreem ents with G reat Britain, China or Russia. M ajor question now facing the United States and other nations in­ terested in m aking progress on a F ar E ast peace settlem ent is whether to go ahead with the writ­ ing of the Japanese peace treaty without Russia. GUN TOTER: Coincidence For a few minutes Washington police thought they m ight have a would-be assassin on their hands when they picked up a m an carry­ ing a gun inside the capitol just after President Trum an had m ade a visit to the senate chamber. But Clifton R. H. Spires, 39, of Augusta, Ga., arrested on a charge of carrying concealed weapons, ap­ peared m ore confused than anyone else about the affair. He seemed to think that he had a grudge against “the big shots in Washington,” but apparently held no animosity to­ ward the President. L ater, he was sent to a, Washing­ ton hospital for observation. The coincidental appearance of President Trum an in the senate cham ber was the result of a dare which he took while having lunch with some of his form er colleagues from the senate. He spoke for five minutes from the seat he held as the senator from Missouri, dwelling largely on the “ auld Iang syne” theme. READING PUBLIC: 49 Per Cent Heard It is probably a safe surmise that Secretary of State George MarshaH was shocked clear down to the bot­ tom of his briefcase when a GaJlup poll revealed that only about 49 per cent of America’s voting population had heard or read of his cele­ brated plan for repairing and re- building Europe's shattered econ­ omy. On the other hand, he could take some consolation from the fact 57 per cent of those who were aw are of the M arshall plan also approved of it. (The plan, in simple terms, was a sug­gestion to the European nations that they get together to work out their economic salvation on a cooperative, self-help basis. Playing a major role in financing the re­covery would be American money—ob­ tained through taxation of both the 49 per cent who had heard of the plan and the 51 per cent who badrtt.) Hcit is to U qnestioa winch Gallup pollsters asked: V PD KlIflII Itlfl about the Marshall plan for helping Europe get back on its feet?” Those who had heard of the plan were asked: “ W hat is your opinion of the plan?” 5 7 * { 21% J 2 2 * APPROVE DISAPPROVE OPINION As a footnote, the poll disclosed that while public opinion was gen­ erally in favor of M arshall’s pro­ posal, support would decline sharp­ ly if taxes had to be raised in order to put it through. N O T A L L O U T G O Peak Foreign Income Reported WASHINGTON.—Compensating in an infinitesimal degree for the vast sum s of United States money which have flowed abroad during the post­ w ar era for relief of devastated countries, earnings on Am erican in­ vestm ents in foreign countries reached a new peak of 520 million dollars last year, it is revealed in a departm ent of com m erce survey. The return, highest in history, sur­ passed by 18 per cent the best year of the 1930s and w as well above the preceding peak of 474 million dol­ lars earned in 1928. For 1938, top year of the ’39s, the ’figure was 440 million dollars. The higher return was largely at­ tributed to an increase of direct in­ vestm ents abroad. These are direct private business investm ents—not government loans. They include principally foreign branches and subsidiaries of Amer­ ican enterprises and foreign com­ panies in which Am ericans own m ore than 25 per cent of the voting stock. About one-half of the 1946 income, or 273 million dollars, was received from Latin America, and one- fourth, 126 million dollars,, from Canada. The rem aining fourth was divided between Europe, Asia, Af­ rica and Oceania. Among the countries involved, Canada has consistently occupies first place. Countries next in im­ portance in providing income on Am erican direct investm ents were Venezuela, Chile, the United King­ dom, Cuba, Argentina, Brazil and Mexico. Largest single income producer was the petroleum industry, which accounted for 170 million dollars in 1946. Manufacturing was second with returns approxim ating 130 mil­ lion dollars. Mining and sm elting produced 65 million dollars; public utilities, 59 million; agriculture, 45 million; distribution industries, 40 ’million, and other industries, 20 million.

MOCKgVTTXE. N. C. I'...: mLflST LOVER Jill M cFarIane1 whose father. Rich­ ard, disappeared in World War I, is in love with U ent. Spang Gordon. She is upset to learn her brother, Ric, is In love with Sandra Calvert, an older wom­ an. During her absence, Richard visits her mother, Julia, and tells her he is now Captain Mackey. Julia is heart­ sick at his lack of interest In the past. Richard sees Ric and tells him he knew his father In France. Later he threatens Sandra, hot she m arries Ric anyway. He has the boy transferred and Sandra arrives a t the farm to live. Julia hears from Richard who tells her he made an attem pt to prevent the m arriage. She is thankful that he has shown himself to he a father a t last. CHAPTER XVI Foster, she w as thinking irritably, could at least have unloaded that odorous bag of fertilizer from the back! Or was that a part of Jill’s and John I.’s diabolical contriving? The old m an had been as impish and secretive as a warlock this m orning. Sandra wrinkled her nose as she got into the seat and brushed off the cushion a bit fretfully with her handkerchief. She asked, "Is it very far?” as Julia cam e back from superintending the loading of the luggage, and slipped the key into the ignition. "Five m iles. A breeze in ordinary tim es. Now we never come in unless we have to. Our tire quota is sm all in this county, and even with a priority we have to wait for m onths.” “I hope Ricky’s tires are good,” Sandra rem arked. " I’d rather counted on joining him soon. It’s absurd to be separated uselessly, I think.” “ Ricky’s tires?” Julia repeated, a bit puzzled. “ Ricky told m e about his red roadster. He was so sorry to have to give it up,” Sandra babbled on. “ I’m sure he’d expect m e to use it.”- So, Julia thought unhappily, Ric w as turning into a M cFarlane liar, too! How was she to explain to this eager, greedy woman that the red roadster belonged to Jill? John I. had bought it for her, had re­ sented it whenever Jill loaned the car to Ric. Ric had had a car the last year he had been in college, b u t he had traded it off, impulsive­ ly, to buy a quarter interest in a plane that one of the co-owners had crashed and burned soon after. "R ic m ust have forgotten that he disposed of his car last year,” she said. “So m uch has happened since he enlisted that it got out of his mind. There is a red roadster on the place, but it belongs to his sister, and it’s put up, too.” “Oh.” Sandra w as obviously up­ set. “He talked so m uch about it— I can’t understand it.” Julia was grateful when at last the gate-posts and white pillars of Buz­ zard’s Hill cam e into view. “Oh,” breathed Sandra. “That’s the place, isn’t it? I recognize it from the picture Ricky has. It’s beautiful!” “It’s very old,” Julia said. “The house was built by slaves, the brick was m ade right on the place. But we like it.” The others w ere waiting on the lawn. (Oh, Jill, why did you have to have on those dreadful overalls? Julia was thinking.) H er broken arm in a grim y looking sling, her pretty hair tied up in a bandana, a feed bucket in her hand, Jill cam e forw ard, grinning. “Hi, Sandy!” she shouted. “ You’re just in tim e. We need an­ other hand with the pigs.” Sandra said, “How do you do?” nervously. Shook hands with John I., appraised him briefly, and then ignored him. She m ade a little ges­ ture with her tinted fingers. “My trunk—” “ My gosh,” m uttered Jill. “ There’s nobody here to carry it upstairs. F oster’s aw ay over the hill pulling corn. You’ll have to un­ pack it out here, I guess, Sandra, and carry the stuff upstairs.” "Oh, but I couldn’t! AU my dresses—and shoes and things!” “We’U m anage some way, Sandra,” Julia said. She led Sandra up the stairs to Ric’s old room, noting instantly that Jill had rem oved the good candle- wick counterpane and replaced it with a faded green m adras thing from M am ie’s quarters. “ I hope you’U be com fortable here,” she said. “The bath is next door down the haU, and we have 6upper at six.” “Thank you — I think I’D lie down.” Sandra looked wan. Some Coffee For the Guest Julia heard the old four-poster squeak, before she reached the head of the stairs. She was a little angry with JiU. There was no point in carrying this thing to absurdity. But when she found the two of them on the screen porch, drinking from cold bottles of pop, she knew by the glint in Jfll’s eye and the twitching of old John I.’s m ustache that anything she could say would fall on deaf ears. “ You could have thought a Uttle about the reputation of the house, a t least,” she complained. “ That horrible old counterpane!” “ Don’t you weaken now, Dooley,” JUl warned. “She’s not going to pull any Queen of Sheba stuff on us.” “You’re being very crude,” JuUa said coldly. "She’U see that it’s aU a gag. I think I’U take up some cold orange juice. After aU, she is our guest—today at least.” “ Dooley, you’U ruin everything! Take her up a pair of slacks and teU her we feed the pigs a t five o’clock." “She’U bust aU that red paint off her finger-nails,” John I. chortled. But Julia w as firm. She carried the little tray up to Ric’s room, but when she cam e down there was an odd, tight expression around her mouth. “She asked m e if there w as any whiskey in the house. She said she felt faint.” Jill’s eyes sparkled. “Go and get Foster’s jug of corn, Gram p. The one he hides in the pump-room.” It w as too swiftly evident that Sandra would never be a part of Buzzard’s HiU. She cam e down to supper, languid and cool in a green silk frock, every curl in place. Dishes of grits, sausage and scram bled eggs were in the middle “ This is Ric’s wife, Dave.” • of the table. “ M amie doesn’t serve at night,” Julia explained. “She has been can­ ning peaches to-day, and she’s tired. WiU you have butterm ilk, Sandra? O r perhaps you’d rather have some tea?” “That will do—If you haven’t any coffee.” Sandra sighed. “Rationed,” Jill said. “You wouldn’t rem em ber that, living in a hotel.” “We could m ake Sandra one cup of coffee,” Julia said. “After aU, she’s had a hard trip.” She went to the kitchen and dripped some hot w ater through fresh grounds under M amie’s dis­ approving eyes. “Now I got to use them grounds over for breakfast, and you won’t like it,” M amie grumbled. Sandra m urm ured, “Thank you” faintly when the cup was put before her. Foster had been buUied by Julia into carrying the trunk up the stairs, and as soon as the m eal was ended Sandra went up to un­ pack. " I’ll bet on one thing,” Jill said grim ly. “I’ll bet she hasn’t any money. And how can she go to join Ric, when he’ll be sent off to war? Are you planning to be patient and sw eet with her for the duration, Dooley?” “As long as she’s Ric’s wife and under our roof, I’ll be kind,”. Julia said, with firmness. “I never had a mother-in-law, but I know what I would have liked her to be.” Sandra Presents A New Problem “ Your mother-in-law wouldn’t have had a daughter-in-law like your daughter-in-law, Mrs. M cFar­ lane. Every tim e she passes a m ir­ ror she stops and does something to her eyebrows! Some tim e when she does that I’ll start screeching at her.” Sandra was wandering around the upper floor when Julia went up. There was a trace of slyness in Sandra’s eyes, a smug expression around her mouth. ’ “I didn’t know we had m utual friends, Mrs. M cFarlane,” she said. “I knew Roger M ackey in the is­ lands." “Roger M ackey?” Julia caught her breath and fought for a casual attitude. “ I just happened to notice his picture there on Jiff’s dresser. A m uch younger picture, of course, but I’d know Rod anywhere.” “That,” Julia had control now, “ is a picture of Jill’s father. He went to France in the last war. He j did not come back.” I True—it had to be true! Her chil- I dren’s father had not come back. The m an who1 had come back was an indifferent stranger. “Oh, yes, Ricky told me. And I rem em ber now that Rod Mackey told m e that Richard’s father was his friend. But the resem blance is rem arkable — uncanny, really. You don’t know Roger M ackey?” “I have no friend whose nam e is M ackey," Julia answered, calmly. But her hands w ere uncertain, and as she dressed, a cold fear pressed on her throat. This was something she had not foreseen, that Sandra could be a danger. When Dave cam e he was a little stunned at the sight of Sandra. “This*ls Ric’s wife, Dave,” Julia introduced them . “You m ight have prepared m e,” Dave said. “After all, m y arteries are hardening, and the aging should be protected from sudden shocks.” “How foolish!” Sandra cooed. “ You know you aren’t old, and I do hope I’m not a terrible shock?” Jill, sprawled in a chair, ground her teeth. “Dave m eans you’re rather an abrupt addition to the M cFarlane tribe,” she said. “Did Ric come home, too?” “Oh, no, they sent him off to some horrible school,” Sandra re­ plied, quickly. “He’s supposed to learn to be an officer, or m aybe it’s a gunner—he w asn’t very certain about it. We hardly had tim e to say good-by.” “H e’ll probably m ake a good gunner, and I can’t think of any­ thing m ore im portant in a w ar than gunners.” Sandra drew her lips in piteous­ ly. “But he’ll be in danger! Gun­ ners ride in those planes. They’re shot at. I can’t bear to think about it.” 1 “The thing to do then,” said Jill curtly, “is not to think about it.” “This is a w ar where anybody can be shot at,” Dave rem arked. “The arm y and navy have no mon­ opoly on danger.” “It’s a w ar where alm ost any­ thing can descend on you,” drawled Jill. “And not always bombs and things in parachutes.” Dave said, “How about going to a movie, Dooley? I’ve got six gal­ lons of gas left and a new ration ticket coming up Monday.” “ Go along, Dooley,” prodded Jill. Julia said, “You go with Dave, Jill. You haven’t had any fun late­ ly, either.” “No, I refuse, definitely. I wouldn’t try to fix m y hair and wig­ gle into clothes with only one arm to see Clark Gable in person. I picked corn today, Dave. In a splint. TelI that to the Russian wom­ en.” Sandra sat with her sm all feet crossed, a watchful look in her eyes. “You m ust scold them for work­ ing so hard, M r. Patterson,” she said, sweetly. “I’m sure it’s quite unnecessary.” Jill’s feet hit the floor with a thud. Jill’s eyes were the eyes of a bad filly. "Sandra is a very naive person, D ave,” she drawled in a deadly lev­ el voice. “Ric told her that we w ere country gentry, and she be­ lieved it.” Sandra narrowed her tinted eye­ lids. "Oh, no,” she said, cooly, “I do not believe all I hear, Jin. Sometimes I do not believe anything at all.” Antagonism crackled like static in the air, m aking Dave definitely un­ comfortable. “How about it, Dooley? Are you coming?” he asked. “Go along, Dooley, don’t be such a stick!” urged Jiff. “Buy her a hot dog and some straw berry pop, Dave. M ake her relax. She’s been strung up like a fiddle for days.” "If this is a therapeutic treatm ent, I’m not going.” Julia tried to laugh. “But if it’s supposed to be fun, I m ight be tem pted.” “It’s for fun,” Dave said. “But we’U m iss the last show if we spend too m uch tim e talking about it.” " I’m sorry to leave you, Sandra.” Julia tried to smooth the troubled air, as she prepared to go. “But there are some good program s on the radio.” “Don’t start m aking com pany out of Sandra,” Jill protested. “She’s fam ily, Fam ily don’t rate any spe­ cial consideration.” Julia slumped in Dave’s car and let her shoulders droop. Julia Goes To a Show “I shouldn’t go," she said. "The girl’s strange and a little edgy, and Jill has been acting like a fiend ever since we heard she w as com­ ing. I fee] as though I had been riding a bomb ever since the train cam e in.” Dave said, soberly, "So Ric dumped another package of trouble in your lap! She’s older than he is isn’t she?” “She looks older. She m ust be. She’s been m arried before. She and Jill won’t get along at all, but what can I do? I can’t turn Ric’s wife out of the'house.” “Don’t worry — she won’t get so venomous that Jill can’t take care of herself. Odd that Ric, who was always so fastidious, would be at­ tracted to a woman like that.” (TO BE CONTINUED) StB m N S SEEK WORLD’S OPINION . . .

Minnesota Fete Recalls Historic Indian Uprising WNU Features. NEW XJLM1 MINN.—Eighty-five years ago this month the Sioux Indians under command of Chief Little Crow struck out in a last desperate attempt to drive the white man from their rapidly shrinking empire in the Midwest states. Center of the attack, which occurred at a period when America was en­ gaged in bitter civil war between the states, was New Ulm, early Germcin settlement in Minnesota. The Indians struck with sudden, savage fury in what history has recorded as the New Ulm M assacre. Although the S - Indians’ cause w as hopeless from the outset, it cost the lives of m ore than 700 m en, women and children of Southwestern Minnesota. The Indians were, in the end, bad­ ly defeated and driven from the state into Dakota territory. Many w ere captured and m ore than 300 w ere sentenced to hang. Interven­ tion of President Lincobi spared the lives of the great m ajority of these, but 38 eventually died in the grea- est m ass hanging A m erica ever has recorded. There are different versions of the incident that touched off the trouble, conceded to have been one of the m ost serious of all Am erican Indian uprisings. Accepted by m any is the story that it was provoked by the craving of a renegade Indian, nam ed One Who Kills Ghosts, for a m ess of eggs for break­ fast. The story has it that one of his companions ordered One Who Kills Ghosts to put down the eggs to avoid starting trouble. One Who Kills Ghosts thereupon accused the other of being a coward and afraid of the white man. M uster for W ar. That, allegedly, set off the spark. In the quarrel that followed, the young bucks decided to prove their valor and went to a nearby settler’s home and shot up m em bers of the fam ily. Indians throughout the Min­ nesota river valley im m ediately be­ gan m ustering for w ar and the very next day whites at the lower agency w ere attacked. The Indians spread out over the country on both sides of the river, despoiling every settlem ent by torch, tom ahawk and terror. Terrified settlers hurried their fam ilies to New Ulm as the Indians m assed for attack. Milford, a rural settlem ent seven m iles w est of New Ulm was attacked and m any of its inhabitants killed on August 18. The following day a force of war­ riors hit at New Ulm, killing sev­ eral persons and burning a num ber of buildings. The defense held, how­ ever, and after som e spirited fight­ ing, the savages withdrew. During the battle reinforcem ents arrived from St. Peter, Mankato, Le Sueur and other neighboring settlem ents, bringing the defense forces to around 800. M aj. Charles E. Flandrau, a form er Indian agent, was placed in com mand and defenses of the town were strength­ ened. P ath of Destruction. Four days later, on August 23, the Indians attacked New Ulm in great­ er num ber. Fighting continued un­ til noon of the following day, when the attackers withdrew. Of the New Ulm defenders, 34 had been killed, 60 wounded. N early 200 buildings had been destroyed. During the sam e tim e the Indians also laid siege to F ort Ridgely1 a United States m ilitary post estab­ lished in 1853, 18 milfes up the river from New Ulm. During the nine- day siege, two form idable assaults w ere m ade and repulsed. The In­ dians then retreated into the Da- kotas, taking with them m any captives. W hatever it w as that started the uprising, historians are agreed that it w asn’t a m ere sudden whim. The Indians were well prepared when they launched their attack. Their leaders knew well w hat they were doing when they chose F ort Ridgely and the settlem ent - of New UIm as. their m ain ob­ jectives. It is felt that the underlying cause j goes back to 1851, before the state of Minnesota w as founded, when treaties were negotiated with the upper and lower branches of the Sioux nation for the transfer of m ost of their vast lands in southern Min­ nesota and in Iowa to the govern­ m ent in return for specified pay­ m ents. The Indians w ere to m ake their homes on a reservation con­ sisting of a 10-mile strip on both sides of the Minnesota river, near Fort Ridgely. The treaty was unpopular with m any of the Indians, for they had exchanged a big em pire for a nar­ row strip of not very suitable land, and paym ents were not as large as they had expected. Other fac­ tors, too, contributed to the hostile feeling which w as becoming m ore pronounced a t a tim e when able- bodied m en w ere being sent out of the state to fight in the Civil w ar.

Royall w as un­ dersecretary of w ar. LEADS UPRISING . . . Chief Lit­ tle Crow of the Sioux Indian tribe led m ore than 4,000 w arriors in the historic raid against New Ulm, pioneer southern Minnesota farm ing center. Little Crow es­ caped U. S. troops sent in pursuit j after the Indians w ere driven off in a clim actic battle August 18, 1862. Thirty-eight of his w arriors were hanged later a t M ankato, Minn. Little Crow escaped that fate, bnt later was found and shot. Bravery of their hardy forefathers whose valiant defense once and for all destroyed the war-m aking power of the Sioux in the Midwest and m ade the area safe for settlers, will be com m em orated in a huge six-day observance, August 12-17, by resi­ dents of New Ulm. None of the actual defenders is known to sur­ vive, but still living are m ore than a score of m en and women who, as children, shared the anxious mo­ m ents of those trying days. Some, despite their advanced ages, can vividly recall m any harrowing ex­ periences. Descendants of the de­ fenders today m ake up m uch of the city’s population. The observance not only will hon­ or the pioneer settlers of the region but also will serve as the official homecoming for several thousand New Ulm and Brown county vet­ erans of World W ar II. Attendance of residents from throughout the Midwest is expected to swell attend­ ance at the six-day program to 150,- 000 and the city will be appropri­ ately decked out for the event, which com m em orates so vital a period in the history of the Plains states.

They say they are seeking only changes in working con­ ditions—NOT a wage increase. Afore Money For Less Work But what kind of rules are being asked for? Twenty-eight of them would compel railroads to pay more money for the same, or less work; 7 would require additional and un­ necessary men to do the same work: tile rest would bring about changes in operating practices at increased cost. For Instance: The Union leaders demand additional train and engine crews on Diesel-pow­ ered trains—one M l crew for every power unit in the locomotive. A freight train hauled by a 4-unit Diesel would have to carry 4 engineers, 4 firemen, 4 conductors, and at least 8 brakemen, or a total of 20 men instead of 5. ttMade Worktt-Sheer Waste The Union leaders demand that fuU- Iength freight trains be cut to about half their length, even though such trains are most efficient for low-cost service to you. This rule would call for twice as many locomotives, would double the number of trains, and make accidents more likely. Additional equipment, yards, and other facilities required to take care of these short trains would cost hundreds of millions. What the Union leaders really want is to make more jobs. The Union leaders demand that when a crew in one class of service perform incidental service of another class, they will be paid not less than a day’s pay for each class, even though all service is performed as a part of the same day’s work. The crew would get at least two days’ pay for one day’s work. The Union leaders demand that the present basic day for passenger con­ ductors and trainmen be reduced from 150 to 100 miles, which would have the effect of increasing their .pay 50%. Such a run often takes only two or three hours! Foa Can’t Afford This Waste Demands like these are against the interests of the whole American people, who depend on railroad serv­ ice for nearly everything they eat, wear and use. These rules would cost a b i l l i o n d o l ­ l a r s annually—a gigantic waste which neither the railroads nor the country can afford. Railroad workers are good citizens and good employes, with pride in their calling. Their record during the war was outstanding. We do not believe they fully understand the “featherbed” rules which the Union leaders are de­ manding. We do not believe they understand the harmful results which these rules would have to the railroad industry, to the millions of men and women dependent on railroads for their livelihood, and to the shipping and con­ suming public. The great strength of America is in production—an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay., For only through greater production can we hope to stop the steady upward surge of living costs. Surely, if ever there was a time in our history when we needed to workJ not waste, this is it. We are publishing this and other advertisements to talk with you at first hand about m atters which are im portant to everybody. C. T.

Hiddenite. N. C. Upon the door I saw a sign; I cried, "A motto, and it’s mine!” A wiser thing I never saw.-- No Median or Persian law Should be more rigidly enforced: Itii logic’s firm as any rock— “Push—don’t knock.” ‘Twas simply meant to guide the hand Of those who wish to sit or stand Within the nnassing door This weight of sermony which bore; ’Twns never meant to teach or preach. But jnst to place in easy reach The ear ot him who dealt in stock— “Push—don’t knock.” Bnt what a guide for life was that Strong, philosophical, and pat; How safe a chart for you and me While cruising o’er life’s restless sea. Push, always push, with goal in view, Don’t knock—avoid the hammer crew. This rule will save you many a shock — “Push—don’t knock.” —Author Unknown. There is a vast difference in pushing and knocking. Of course you can push a fellow wrong, or you can knock him wrong. The idea is if you want a fellow to go right, push him. but don’t knock him. Manypeopleseem to want others to go in the right direction in life, but they knock rather than push them. It Is true that we have to strongly oppose sin and wicked- ness, and warn onr feilowmen a- gainst snch; and try to help them give it up anp come to Christ, but to simply go about knocking them will never bting this to pass. Did you ever go to a man’s door and notice a little button beside the door? It has a small wire connec­ ted to it which goes into some room in the honse, and if you push the button it rings a tiny bell, oe makes a noise in the room, and this re­ veals the fact that some one is at the door. Immediately some one in the bouse wili go to the door. You merely push the button. Per haps if yon should' knock you. might not get any response, as no one might hear you. Thus it is in one’s life. If yon push him gently toward God thro kind words and much drayer, and by doing good deeds for him, and by showing him that you are inter­ ested in his soul and life, you will come far nearer leading him to Christ and into the Chiistian relig­ ion, and helping him heavenward, than it you went about knocking hitat You can hit a man’s sins very hard blows, and vet in the meantime love him, pray for him, and show him a spirit of brotherly love and compassion, and win him to Christ. There is a vast differ ence in hitting a man's sins and hitting him. If I say, “John Brown, you are a dirty rascal. You ar,e a wortaless, good for.notbing drunk­ ard and ought to be in the peniten­ tiary,” do you think I’d halp him to sober up, seek God, and become y genuine Christiao? The proba bility is I’ll only drive l.im farther away from God and deeper into drunkenness and sin. This is knock ing. Bnt if I sav, “John Brown, you are in a bad business and I want to help vou ont. I love yon, but am tremendously opposed to liquor. You cannot afford to live snch a life. You are not only wast. ing your life and your money, but vou are fast going to hell, and iu the meantime you are helping hun­ dreds ot others In the same direc tion. Piease turn to Jesus. He loves yon and wants to save you. He can make you a good, great and noble man and give you a home in heaven when this life is over.” In all probability Tohn - Brown will love me and turn to Christ. This is pushing. High Tax HarrV Wallace a Candi­ dateA famous character in American history was a gentleman known to his friends as ‘ Light Horse Harry” He now has a successor in the title (no hero) who we think should be known as High Tax Harry. OI course we mean. Harry Trumau1 President of the United States. For Mr. Trnman has vetoed the first tax-relief biil giveu to 48,000,- 000 American tax pavers in many years. He has vetoed it on the specious grounds that the govern­ ment ought to save up a surplus now through high taxes in order to pay something on the national debt. He has completely ignored the fact that a much more effective way of paying off the nationai debt would be to accumulate a surplus by redu .ing our daily governmen­ tal expenditures This he is op­ posed to so we think that the name High Tax Harry is fair and truth­ ful In describing the personal poli­ cies of our President. He believes in maintaining taxes at their pre- sent high repressive level and he believes in spending money like a drunken sailor. AU this talk a. bout reducing the nationul debt or making our government’s financial policies sound and conservative is specious nonsense because the very basis of sound and conservation po­ licies is to reduce reckless spend ing and the President refuses to do —He has gone back to the old policy once favored by the late Harry Hopkins; "We propose to spend and spend and tax and tax and elect and elect.” When the Presiden’t foot slipped. was on the last part of the program. For the peonle understand this kind of business now and they are sick of being endless tax for ex penditures they do not approve of, for wastes In government of which they highly disapprove. “High Tax Harry” has done it. He has sealed his own political doom for 1948.—Bridgeport, Conn., Post. Faith And The Fatare What the people need is faith in the world’s future. They need to be able to be believe that world peace is possible; that the people of the United States can, in deed and in truth, be made "one people” ; that tl;e idea of service nan be in­ troduced into politics and into the relations of labor and of capital to the whole people. They need to become convinced of their own own human worth as individuals and that there is, in the language of the scientist, an anti-chance which is above all chance. It is not an accident that DuNouys’ Human Destiny” is on the best seller list, becanse it presents rea sons for the faith that there is a God and that we are partners with Him. How can the partners of Divine Omnipotenc fail to reject counter evolutionary influences which de­ grade man and pueb him hack ,to­ ward the cave from which be em erged; and who can deny that the custom of drinking alcohol is such an influence, since it supresses the higher functions of the brain, re­ leasing ptimitive impulses?—Wilk- es Patriot. Sounded Dangerous Little Mary, aged five, came run ning up to her mother, crying. Little Mary: Oh, mother, dear! You’d better come quick and get daddy! Mother: Why, deaiie? Little Marv: Well, Daddy and Mr Siuiih are down in the cellar and I heard Mr Smith tell Daddy to give him another shot! Any Ground for doubt that Hen­ ry A. Wallace will be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for President at the national conven tion next year bas been eliminated by tbe action of a group of his De­ mocratic snpporters in California who formally launched what pro­ jected as a nation wide campaign for him. It is now evident that a vigorons “Wallace for-President” campaign will be conducted throughout the land and probably in alt the states If Wallace lives and continues to enjoy good health, his name will be presented before the Democra­ tic national convention and it is not improbable tba* his followers will wage a traffic battle to obtain his nomination. Of course, there is not the slightest prospect now that they will be successful. At present it appears that the move­ ment is doomed to failure. However, it is not improbale that Wallace will be a candidate despite the action of the Democratic Na­ tional convention, even though Ro­ bert W. Kenny, leader of the Wal­ lace bloc in California, has declar­ ed that tbe group was “not orga­ nizing to put Waliace up as a third party candidate ” Others of the Wallace camp who are probably closer to him than Kenny have indicated that tbeir crusading leader will be an “inde pendent” candidate if the Demo cratic part” reject the bid of the Wallace fiction for tbe nomination. The temper of the Wallace tol lowers in California was Indicatrd whan thev shouted down a propo sal bv John A. Drspol. a CIO dis­ trict representative, that they give assjrance that they wonld support the Democr tic nominee should the National convention fail to name Wallace. Developments contiaue to indi­ cate that Wallace will be a candi­ date in the contest for President next year, even though he has to run on a third party of “independ­ ent” ticket. Of course, a third party or an “independent Demo cratic” ticket headed by Wallace would mean almost certainly the election of the Republican candi­ date for President —Charlotte Ob server. Spade By Another Name If Tom Dewey’s 6.500 mile trip to Salt Lake City and balk, with side excursions to see Mrs. Dewey’s .folks in Oklahoma and others iu which he just happened to meet up with political leaders who have a reputation foi delive <ng delegates at conventions—if all this was only a restful vacation, be certainly made a pile of hay in the western sunshine, In spite of certain disagreements on matters of policy and politics, we have always ' admired Tom Dewey as a man who was not a- fraid to call a spade a spade. But when he calls this junket just a vacation trip,” we begin to wonder why be had to take along a squad of state troopers and a corps of newspapers correspond­ ents and why he happened bv con coincidence to be passing through through tbe bailiwicks of potent politicians. Those are not the usual accout- ments of a vacation trip, and no­ body was fooled, when this time he called a spade by another name. Charlotte Observer. READ THE AD* Along With the N ew Social Security Benefits Benefit payments under the Fed­ eral old age survivors insurance program, whether retirement or survivors’ payments, montly or lump-sum, are not made automa­ tically. A claim for benefits must be filed before pavr.ents can be made. It is important to file a claim promptly; otherwise benefits may be lost. A worker should get in touch with the Winston-Salem, N. C., Social Security Administration field office as soon as he reaches age 65. Benefits are payable retroactively only for 3 months prior to the date of filing. Even if the worker does not intend to retire at once, it may be to this advantage to file bis claim immediately The field of fice will advise the worker as to the best course to take. Claims for monthly survivors’ benefits should be filed immediate­ ly after tbe insured person's death. Monthly payments to survivors are retroactive only for 3 months prior to the month of filing. Thus if a claim is not filed until the fourth month after the month ot the In­ sured person's dsuth, I month’s payment is lost. Claims tor the lump-sum death benefits must be made within 2 years after the death of the insur­ ed person. However, if the wage earner, died outside the United States after December 6, 1941. and before August 10 1946, the 2-year time limit for the filing of a lump. sum death benefit claim begins on August io, 1946. The place to file a claim is tbe Winston Salem office of the Social Security Administration, located in Room 437, Nissen Building. Workers and tbeir families will gel help in making out their claim papers so as to get everything the law allows. This help is free of charge. It is not necessary to pay anyone to help obtain benefits; a person who is eligible for benefits; a person who is eligible for bene­ fits will get them if he files a claim.

W hatever you have, it will be good if you m ake the fire well in ad- ance, and then let it bum down to glowing coals before you start cook­ ing. That’s the secret. You have a choice of m any kinds of m eat—juicy ham burgers, plump weiners, steaks or ribs. But do have a good sauce to go with them . Or, let the folks have kabobs—everyone will enjoy roasting his own. .4Barbecoed Ribs. (Serves 6) 3 to 4 pound ribs, cut in pieces I lemon I large onionVs cup W orcestershire sauce I teaspoon chili powder1 teaspoon salt 2 to 3 dashes tabasco sauce Z cups water W cup chili sauce Place a piece of lemon and onion on each rib. Mix rem aining ingredi­ ents together; heat to boiling and then brush sauce over the ribs. Broil slowly on outdoor grill and brush frequently with sauce. For outdoor broiling, place m eaty side of ribs down on the grill. Onion and lemon may be secured with toothpicks. For steak that is really elegant, use the above sauce for brushing the steaks while broiling. Or, if you prefer, the steaks may be marinated, as fol­ lows, for several hours before you s ta r t b ro ilin g : Mix together I cup of salad oil, iA cup of vinegar, % teaspoon salt and % teaspoon pepper, 2 tablespoons grated onion, I clove garlic and I tablespoon minced parsley. Some people prefer a barbecue sauce for steaks, but even then they like to rub the m eat with onion, gar­ lic, herbs and such before basting with the sauce. Use your own taste as a guide. Steaks should be first quality, well aged and well m ar­ bled with ,fat for barbecue. ■ :,i „ ‘Outdoor Potatoes. , " (Serves 6) 4 caps cooked potatoes, diced 2 cups sliced onions I tablespoon minced parsley I tablespoon paprika V- teaspoon salt V i teaspoon pepper V i cup fat or drippings Combine all ingredients and place in heavy skillet.

S U N M ll S C H O O L LC S S O N Straight Thinking About Drinking LESSON TEXT FOR AUGUST 17—Prov- erbs 20:1; 23:19.21. 29-35; Ecclesiastes 10:17. MEMORY SELECTION — Be not drank with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit.—Ephesians 5:18. EDITOR'S NOTE: Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected aad copyrighted by International Council of Religious Edu- cation; used by permission. By WILLIAM CULBERTSON, D. D. Of The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. THE increase in the drinking habits of our nation is a source of concern, not only to the forces of morality, but to the liquor interests themselves. How strange it is to have the purveyors of a commodity urge moderation in its use! Undoubtedly the Bible’s answer to this whole problem is the only right one. The Word of God has many strong things to say con­ cerning alcoholic beverages. Wise is the man who heeds the injunc­ tions of Scripture. I. Liquor—a Description (Prov. 20:1). W HAT a striking text this is! Think of its implications. “Wine is a mocker.” It grasps its victim in a vicelike grip, and then taunts him in his inability to release himself. The drunkard is a victim of his own appetite, helpless to re­ sist the temptation which ensnares him. The young person who takes his first drink for sociability is indeed deceived, in that alcoholic liquor never reveals the possible cost which it exacts from the one who takes that first drink. The better part of valor is to leave the stuff alone. The Word of God says further that “strong drink is a brawler” (A.S.V.). All of us have probably seen bow the drunkard enters into conflict entirely without reason. Li­ quor seems to make a man sense­ less to danger and quick to express anger. II. Liquor—a Warning (Prov. 23: 19-21). THE admonition of this passage is that we should not be found among drunkards and gluttonous men.Solomon here tells us of one of the results of drunkenness and gluttony —poverty. The drowsiness which is the result of both of these sins does indeed clothe a man with rags. If, therefore, we have no higher motive than that of self-respect, than that of having enough of this world’s goods to make a present­ able appearance, we should avoid company with those who will lead us into the same excess that char­ acterizes them. How important it is that we guide our hearts in God’s way. Let us understand, of course, that there are far higher motives for right living than those involved here. However, if we can come to the conclusion to avoid drinking on the basis of a lower motive, how much more important it is to come to the same conclusion on the basis of a higher one. As Christians, that higher motive concerns our testi­ mony before men, our living a life that will cause others to want to know Christ; in short, our living for the glory of God. III. Liquor—a History (Prov. 23: 29-35; Eccles. 10:17). IN THE first of these Scripture * passages we have what may be called a history of drunkenness. This sin leads to woe, to sorrow, to contentions, to wounds without a cause. But that is not .the end. Look care­ fully at Proverbs 23:32 and stress the first three words, “At the last.” At the last, it does indeed bite like a serpent and sting like an adder. Such poison is injected into one’s body and soul that it seems as though there is no remedy. Thank God, there is a remedy; there is power in the blood of Christ to make the foulest clean. In verses 33 to 35 we read some of the results of drunkenness: Be­ holding of strange things (v. 33), utterance of perverse things (v. 33), insensibility which is the result of drinking (v, 35), and inability to avoid succumbing to the same temptation all over again (v. 35). Is it any wonder that the admoni­ tion is “Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it sparkleth in the cup, when it goeth down smoothly.” Although man still has a sembiance of right thinking, the temptation is great enough to de­ ceive him as to the consequences. In view of such results, is it any wonder this same Preacher says in Ecclesiastes 10:17 that the land is blessed when its rulers eat and drink for strength and not for drunkenness. It StiU is true that righteousness exalteth a nation, but that sin is a reproach to any people. And since the princes of the land as the lead­ ers will frequently ..personify the people of the land as the followers, happy is that nation which has godly govemers.

Despite the intense heat, thousands of young and old, crowded the picnic grounds, com­ ing from far away California and the Canal Zone. At least 15 states were represented. The annual address was deliv­ ered by Senator W. B. Umstead1 and was enjoyed by a large audi­ ence. Old songs by a class from the Oxford orphanage, transcri bed music and short talks were heard. At the noon hour hund reds of hungry folks enjoyed an old-fashioned ,country dinner of ham, chicken, cakes, pies, pickles, sandwiches, etc. Col. Jacob Stew­ art, master of ceremonies, and General Manager Knox Johnstone were both busy and happy during the day. During the afternoon Luther Hartsell, Jr., of Concord, grand master of the North Carolina lodge, delivered an address on Masonery, A number of short talks were made during the after­ noon. The Dixie Doodles, of Charlotte, entertained a large audience during the evening. The midway was crowded during the afternoon and evening, and the R. C. Lee riding devices did a land-office business. . The big crowd was well behaved during the entire day, and not a drunk was seen on the grounds by this writer. Lack of space prevents a more lengthy write-up of this big picnic. Among those present was J. N. Ijames, well-known Mocks- ville citizen, who hasn't missed a Masonic picnic since rhe first one held at Cooleemee 68 years ago.

U Contouring Reduces Soil and Water Loss Reclaim Waste Land by Half-Moon Shape Fence By C. W. GEE Pioneers who settled Ohio and laid out their fence lines along the true points of the compass would have been shocked by a land transaction which recently took place in Logan county. M organ Connor deliberate­ ly added 1.37 acres to his farm near Bellefontaine, Ohio, in order to m ake his fence lines crooked. Having adopted m any soil conser­ vation practices recom m ended by Is the 'Common Manr Fit to Rule? the U. S. soil conservation service, among which were contouring, his yield had been increased. By this method he reduced w ater run-off and cut soil loss to the minimum. A fence had been erected on a 32- acre tract along the. north side of the Connor farm . The fence ran according to the compass. When Wiley Connor returned from the m ilitary forces, father and son de­ cided to reclaim several acres of waste land, which included an old barn lot near the north line and bi­ sected by a sm all ditch. \ Unable to plant the land to 'ber­ ries on the contour because of the straight fence line, the two moved the fence. Now their line fence follows a half-moon shape which would have aroused the horror of the early Ohio settlers. Connor, how­ ever, is not concerned with guiding his life and farm ing activities by the compass. He is concerned with saving his top soil. Two diversion ditches have been constructed and six acres of trees planted. Population May Backslide To Low Intelligence Level By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator. WASHINGTON.—W hen the H enry W allace for president m ove­ m ent was. launched in California it m ade a lot of R epublicans hap­ py ju st to think about it, although they never really believed that, a third party w as possible. (When I w as in college a friend of m ine w rote an essay entitled: “Why a Third P arty Is Im possible in A m erica.’' This w as ju st before Teddy Roosevelt cam e out with his Bull M oosers in 1912). - If Wallace were to become president of the United States it is unlikely that the “common m an” whom he champions would have any m ore to say about running the country than he does now. However, when Wallace says this is the century of the “common m an,” he isn’t far wrong.

The new breed is long bodied and short legged, with a full ham , light shoulder and a light, strong bone. The ears are rather large but thin and of good quality. The breeders have been selected upon the basis of perform ance, i.e., fertility, sur­ vival, rate of growth, economy of gains and body conformation. A new breed, Minnesota No. 2, also is being perfected at Minnesota. Easy Method Used For Dipping Pigs A sim ple arrangem ent for dipping pigs at vaccination tim e, devised by Dr. J. O. Black, N e b ra sk a veteri­ narian, is shown in a c c o m p a n y in g drawing. One side and end of a 50 gallon drum has been opened at the left. In cutting the drum turn the sharp edges in and down so the pigs wiU not get injured when get­ ting out. The drum is placed out­ side the pen where vaccination is to be done. After each pig is vaccinated, it is dropped over the fence and into the drum on its back. The pig will turn over in the drum and jum p out and drum wiU be ready for the next pig. Soil Packing Reduces Productivity of Land “ Plug your soils as you would a w aterm elon,” is the advice of m any soil experts. This will give you a chance to see com pactions that are holding down yields. Modern heavy equipm ent and short-sighted crop­ ping practices have robbed the soil of its organic m atter and often packed it, according to Middle West Soil Im provem ent com mittee. Per­ m anent rem edy is regular use o f deep-rooted legumes. the upper classes. Even in the case of G reat Brit­ ain’s very mild revolution, which was the result of popular vote and a free choice, the traditional po­ litical and intellectual leaders were swept out of office. Americans are com mitted to the idea that the m ajority should rule and the theory al­ ways has been that the people would be wise enough to select a person of sufficient intelli­ gence, experience and integrity to represent them at the job of ruling. Of late, however, a num ber of persons approaching the problem from quite different angles, have' expressed concern about the educa­ tion and training of the men avail­ able for the responsibility of car­ rying on the business of govern­ m ent. I have been assured by old-timers here who have been fam iliar with -the personnel of congress over a num ber of years that we perhaps have as high type of men, m entally and morally, in congress today as we have ever had. In fact, I am told they are m aking excellent use of the greatly expanded sources of information on the issues they have to consider and are, therefore, bet­ ter informed than any congress has ever been. Nevertheless, we hear from edu­ cators, from economists and statis­ ticians, all sorts of dire warnings. One that has recently stirred up the press considerably was by Guy Irving Burch, head of the popula­ tion reference bureau. It seem s Burch read a survey m ade in Eng­ land by Sir Cyril B urt at the re­ quest of the royal commission on population. As a result of his survey, Sir Cyril suggests that in 50 years the num ber of students of scholarship ability in Britain will be approxi­ m ately halved and the num ber, of feeble-minded alm ost doubled. JThis conclusion was based on psycho­ logical tests and size of fam ilies in Britain. Nation of Dallards Seen in Ftdure Burch has studied population sta­ tistics for the United States from the standpoint of psychological tests, educational attainm ent, eco­ nomic status and type of occupa­ tion. He says: “ We m ay reach the general conclusion that the lowest third of our people in each one of these four categories has fam ilies about twice as large as those of the highest third.” And he concludes: “As a voting participant in helping to solve the m any in­ tricate problem s of oar complex civilization a dull and backward IndlvidaaI is alm ost as helpless as an idiot. In fact, he m ay be m ore dangerous to dem ocrat­ ic institutions because he is easily com manded by dem a­ gogues and dictators.” This gives us quite a different pic­ ture of the century of the "common m an.” Dr. Francis Brown, staff associ­ ate of the Am erican Council on Education and the executive secre­ tary of the President's commission, doesn’t quarrel with Burch’s figures but he says: “This population-intel- igence report does not give enough im portance to the possibility of im­ proving intelligence by education.” In other words, if we broaden the base of our teaching we can regain a lot of the potential w aste m a­ terial that Burch has discovered. W hat the Burch report over­ looks is this, says Dr. Brown, “hum an intelligence never has been developed to its fullest among the great m asses of peo­ ple. No way has been found accurately to m easure the ul­ tim ate capabilities of the human m ind.” There are others, however, who while they m ay agree with Brown’s postulation, question the methods now being used to develop these innate abilities. A very dim view of the situation is taken by Canon Bernard Iddings Bell, educator, pastor, author and consultant on education to the Epis­ copal bishop of Chicago. He thinks Henry W allace is cor­ rect in his description of the cur­ rent century but he says: “ It does not follow because the common m an has suddenly been lifted into control that he is thereby autom atically m ade competent properly to exert control.” He thinks Wallace’s definition ought to be expanded. He says: “Ours is the century of the uneducated common m an, of the perpetually adolescent common m an, of the common m an un­ skilled in the art of living. Un­ taught in the wisdom of the race, he is incompetent either to rule or to be ruled.” Need Education For Common Man The canon isn’t snobbish. He is not looking down his canonical nose at anybody. As a m em ber of so­ ciety he takes his share of the blame by saying that society has played the common m an a low trick “for which those who control education are chiefly chargeable.” Bell quotes the late Dr. William Rainey H arper’s definition of an ed­ ucated m an: A m an who by the n hH B h HOW BLUE YOUR EYES ARE . . . Anything can happen at a baby show, as witness this scene taken during judging at a Los Angeles competition. One-year-old Leland D exter, contestant for the bluest eyes, went to sleep in m idst of excitem ent and bad to be judged in his carriage. N E W S R E V IE W O s * Canon B ernard Iddings Bell '. . . unskilled . . . untaught. . tim e he is 25 has a clear theory, formed in the light of hum an ex­ perience down the ages, of what constitutes a satisfying life, a sig­ nificant life, and who by the age of 30 has a m oral philosophy consonant with racial experience.” Bell thinks that w hat we do not do and what we ought to do to educate is, first, to give children a knowledge of the race’s wisdom, im parting to them what they ought to know rather than teach them w hat they would like to study; sec­ ond, to teach children how to read, w rite, listen to and speak the English language; third, they m ust be taught decent m anners, the rights of others; fourth, they m ust learn that honest and craftsm anlike achievement is the only door to so­ cial approval; fifth, teachers m ust “inspire reverence for the un­ seen and im part some objective knowledge of w hat the various faiths about us are to do and teach.” I wish that some sm art statis­ tician would try to figure out if the kind of education which would give a m an a high income likewise m akes him fit to run a country as complicated as ours in a world as complicated as ours. British Economy Menaced; Traffic Fatalities Slashed Like a kaleidoscope in which several apparently unrelated chips of glass shift suddenly from a m eaningless jum ble of color into an understandable pattern, so at least som e of the w hirling segm ents of the w orld’s intricate economy have begun dropping into place to form a coherent unit. F or m asses of A m ericans, to whom econom ics could be boiled down into a m atter of “you either have it or don’t have it,” the in­ ternational hysteria of m onies, credits, loans, spending, inflation a t hom e and crises abroad began to take on som e m eaning. Within a m atter of hours cam e a sudden spate of developments, starting in England and ending up on virtually every farm in Am erica. Having no ostensible connection on the surface, each fresh turn of events was linked inexorably with preceding occurrences. To philosophers, as well as econo­ m ists, it was a perfect chain of causes and effects. This is how it began: ^--------------------- I Field M arshal Viscount Mont- • gomery, chief of the British im ­ perial general. staff, suddenly was called home from a tour of the Far E ast. Montgomery returned to G reat B ritain to advise the government concerning drastic curtailm ent of the nation’s m ilitary establishm ent, cost of which (3.6 billion dollars a year) could no longer be borne by the threadbare British economy. 2 In London, Labor government • officials, no longer able to stave off a frank admission, told the world that England’s plight was desperate, that the tight little isle was on the sharp brink of ruin. Prim e M inister Clement Attlee, as­ sailed with charges of “bungling” and “failure to act,” nevertheless was given a vote of confidence when he sketched out !a plan which would have British m iners work an extra hour each day to increase England’s coal production, key pillar in its economic structure. The British crisis was born out of four factors: Shortage of Amer­ ican dollars (the U. S. loan will have been used up by C hristm as); shortage of coal (not enough to per­ m it industries, to operate and re­ build stockpiles); shortage of m an­ power, and inflation. 3 M orally weakened under the • threat of doinestic political and economic crises, the London stock m arket broke swiftly, as sharp sell­ ing hit all sections. And, although U! S. state depart­ m ent observers scoffed at the idea that developments in England had produced a reaction" over here, it appeared to be something m ore than coincidence that: 4 Shortly after London stocks • broke, wheat prices on the Chi­ cago board of trade showed losses of nine to nine and one-fourth cents a bushel, while corn and oats dropped off from three to four cents. Industrial stocks also receded some­ w hat on the New York stock ex­ change. At the sam e ,time, it becam e ap­ parent that the U. S. government, faced with high prices of grain and food and I continued shortages abroad, would issue a call for an­ other big wheat crop this year in­ stead of reducing w heat production goals as was planned previously. As the picture began to take shape, the dominating motif ap­ peared to be economic insecurity. DEATH ROAD: Safety Report Compared with 1946, death is tak­ ing a back seat on the nation’s high­ ways this year, the semi-annual re­ port of the National Safety council has shown. For the first six months of 1947 the cross-country death toll stood at 14,480. That figure is 9 per cent below the 15,890 fatalities recorded for the sam e period last year. At the sam e tim e, travel was 11 per cent heavier this year. According to the safety council’s report, 2,490 lives were lost during June, which represents a 5 per cent increase over the June, 1946, rec­ ord. In view of the increased traffic, however, it was a m arked improve­ ment. Even the larger cities in the na­ tion were decreasing their traffic fatalities. New York whittled its deaths by 15 per cent and Los An­ geles by 16 per cent. Jacksonville, Fla., was tops on the record book with a 69 per cent decrease from 1946. Indication was that cities were becoming m ore traffic conscious. INDONESIA: U.N. Looks It w as, a m atter of regret, the Dutch governm ent said, that the m atter of the Dutch - Indonesian fracas w as'being brought before the United Nations security council. To a few million other observers, it was not so much a m atter ol regret as it was a surprise. U. N.. it seemed, was even then overdue in its action. Australia and Jndia laid the prob­ lem before the council, where ii im mediately began to vie with the Balkan issue for priority of debate Although the Australian and In­ dian delegations ,told the council that the strife between Dutch anc Indonesian forces threatened world peace, a Dutch spokesm an in Wash, ington said U. N. had no juris­ diction. Netherlands authorities insist or term ing the struggle a Dutch “po­ lice action,” designed to control re­ bellious Indonesians who hate tc w ait until 1949 to attain their inde­ pendence as a sovereign state. The Indonesians, however, say that the Dutch are waging a colonial war and that it looks like imperialism to them. F A R M E R S B E N E F IT _ 1 AAA To Resume Soil Program WASHINGTON.—Extensive oper­ ations of the AAA soil conservation program were ordered resum ed by the departm ent of agriculture after congress finally approved a 255 mil­ lion dollar adm inistrative fund for the setup. Adm inistrative expenses are in addition to the 265 million dollars which will go directly for paym ents to farm ers participating in soil-saving practices. Inaugurated in early days of the New Year, the AAA program offers cash and m aterials, principally lim e and fertilizers, to farm ers for carrying out approved soil and w ater conservation practices. Local details of the program are carried out by m ore than 100,000 fawner committeemen. The program was halted in May when the house voted to appropri­ ate only 165 million dollars for the setup this year and to end it alto­ gether next yearf’ The AAA had worked out a 300-million dollar pro­ gram and President Trum an had recommended that am ount in his budget to congress. Although the 255 million finally voted by congress is lowbr than the sum asked, the soil program is be­ ing resum ed on the sam e basis as originally planned. The appropria­ tion for adm inistrative expensesjs about 18 per cent less than last year. Bulk of the reduction in per­ sonnel and other expenses will be absorbed in Washington and state offices, allowing local AAA office: to retain most, of their present staff A farm er m ay sign up for any num ber of approved projects, bui he is prom ised only a certair am ount of mofiey with the provisior that he will get additional payments if any funds rem ain after all farm ­ ers have been paid their minimum guarantees? The program will be cut drastic­ ally next year. At insistence of the senate, however, the house agreed to go along with an appropriation el 150 million dollars for 1948.

And there’s another danger, Dave. This •woman knows Richard. She knew him in Hawaii. He telephoned last night. He told m e that he had tried to prevent this m arriage by having Ric sent away, but that they w ere too quick for him .” “So Ric knows about his father?” “No, Ric doesn’t know. Richard didn’t tell him. And Jill doesn’t know.” “They’ll have to !:row, Dooley. Surely you can see now that your only protection is the truth?” “Dave, I can’t tell them ! I can’t m ake m yself do it.” “But Richard is alive! You have a living personality to deal with now, not a shadow, Hot a m em ory. I think you’re taking an awful chance, Dooley, risking a shock to Jiil much worse than the truth would be. I think you’re dead •wrong." Dave steered carefully through the thin traffic on the. edge of the town. "To my mind, the best protection Jill can have is the truth. But I’m not going to argue with you. It’s your own problem , you’ve had the m isery of it all these years, you’ve got the anxiety of it now. You m ay be able to count on Richard to keep his identity concealed. It’s to his own interest, of course. It would be definitely awkward for him if the W ar D epartm ent got wind of it. There are always a few blackbirds in every arm y, but if they’re found out it doesn’t go well with them .” “W hat is a blackbird?” “A m an who gets discharged from a m ilitary unit for some rea­ son, or who deserts or leaves his com m and without complying with regulations and then enlists some­ where else under an assum ed nam e. T hat’s the spot R ichard is in, right now, and he’s probably m ore acutely aw are of it, than even you are. I doubt if he’ll start anything. He was taking a risk, even to let you know that he was alive. But if this woman knows anything about it, that’s another angle and a bad one.” “She saw Richard’s picture in Jill’s room and identified it in­ stantly as a picture of Roger Mackey. I could see her m ind work­ ing. She’s a type I’ve never m et before, Dave. I don’t know exactly how to deal with her.” “Why on earth did Ric send her to you, anyway?” “Because he didn’t know what else to do with her. He w as shipped out suddenly — Richard did that — and I suppose she had no money. There’s nothing at all to do, Dave, but w ait.” Failed in Her Duty to Ric “H ere’s the movie. I suppose we should go in.” Julia’s voice was w eary. “Go in and look at im itation tragedy and . forget our own. The sickening thing for me, Dave, is the realization that I m ust be a very weak person. No strong woman could have m uddled up one life as I have m uddled m ine.” “W hat did you have to do with it?” Dave dem anded, a little angrily. “Did you create any of these circum stances, by any act of your own? You’ve taken what cam e with courage and m ade the best of it. I won’t have you blam ing your­ self.” “But I m ust be to blam e for Ric. A m other has to be to blam e, Dave. Your child is given to you—clean, plastic clay, nothing carved upon the surface at all, all new and un­ tried, to m ake of it what you will. I haven’t even a father’s influence for an alibi with Ric. I failed some­ how to put strength into his spirit, to m ake him wise enough to judge values, to give him the courage to reject everything that wasn’t good and fine. It isn’t pleasant to Imow that you’ve failed with your only son.” “You’re all wrong, Dooley. Any psychologist would tell you how wrong you are. You aren’t given a child like a sheet of white paper with nothing at all w ritten upon it. W hat is born to you is a record, the long scroll scribbled all over 'w ith the story of generations of Mc- Farlanes, their weaknesses, their m eannessses, their nobility, traits over which you have no control w hatever.” “I did have the control of direc­ tion. I could have put power behind the weakness and elim inated the m eanness and built up what was good, but I didn’t. I couldn’t some­ how ever get near to Ric, Dave. I could only give him love, and he accepted that, but always with that faint tinge of condescension. I sup­ pose it was because he had no father. There was a maleness in Ric that only a father could have touched. I was always less a parent to him than just another woman. By the time he was seven he was treating me with the same sort of casual indulgence that Richard used to have for me. He told me the truth when it suited him, and when he felt the urge to deceive me, it never bothered him for a minute.” “You gave your children two parents, Dooley. Don’t forget that.” “Jill said that the other day. And I was always aware of it, with Ric. He has that charm that Rich­ ard has, that trick of getting what he wants, of being untouched by the disapproval of other people, a kind of veneer that kept him apart, iso that he was himself, complete and just a little arrogant, entirely pleased with himself and slightly amused by all the rest of the world. There’s a deadly kind of fascina- “You m ay have changed Rich­ ard’s direction, but you didn’t de­ stroy him .” tion about it. It m akes you want to break through and m ake the person who owns it aware of you. Even when I was so furious at Rich­ ard Sunday night when he cam e back, I was feeling that irritation, the impelling to crash through that shell of his, get past that mocking sm ile, find some vulnerable spot, some place where he could be hurt. Ric’s like that, too. Suave and charm ing, and entirely rem ote. But I should have done something about that when he was sm all.” “That very aloofness m ay save Ric, Dooley,” Dave rem inded her. “If I’m any judge of hum an nature this woman he has m arried won’t like it. She’ll w ant to absorb every thought and feeling Ric has, she’ll eat him alive the way some spiders devour their m ates. H er very lack of reticence and reserve will repel Ric, if it hasn’t done that already. She dragged him into this m ar­ riage, by some fem ale trick, of course, and a few weeks away from her will cool him down. Very likely he’s wondering right now w hat he saw in her, and how he’s going to get out of the m ess he’s in.” “I think,” Julia said, opening the door and gathering up her purse and gloves, “that the M cFarlaiie m en were not m eant for m arriage at all. There’s an atavistic thing in them , a strutting sort of in­ solence that goes back to plum es and sabers and knights riding alone. The woman who innocently lures a M cFarlane m an into m arriage de­ stroys him. . I destroyed Richard, and Sandra will wreck Ric.. ” Sandra Puts On an Act ‘‘More fantastic nonsense!” growled Dave, getting out his wal­ let before the lighted ticket win­ dow. “You m ay have changed Rich­ ard’s direction, but you didn’t de­ stroy him . W hat was in him would have worked the sam e destruction anyway. Well, let’s see what sort of pale im itation of the real thing Hollywood has to offer.” Jill dragged her feet upstairs wearily. She had worked hard that day, tiring herself to exhaustion, forcing her young body, handicapped by the broken arm , to tasks that she had never known before, because the need was so great now that the man-power shortage had moved in on Buzzard’s Hill, and because when every bone and m uscle scream ed with weariness, she could sleep, she would be too tired to think. In one day life in the old house had abruptly stiffened to this hor­ rible, watchful form ality. Why had Sandra come to Buz­ zard’s Hill? She m ust have hated coming, being pushed off in a state of dependence, among strangers, yet she had come. And undoubtedly, Jill decided, Sandra was a re­ sourceful creature. Did she believe that when the waT was over, Buzzard’s Hill would be­ long to Ric, and that the others would be brushed off casually, that she would step into the comfort and security that Dooley had worked so hard for years to win for them all? “I’d kill her first!” Jill thought angrily. “I’d strangle her with my bare hands!” She kicked off the beige pajam as, and got into the tub and lay there, soaking in the comforting hot wa­ ter, letting her mind drift off blank­ ly. The radio was playing in Ric’s room, some jive thing. Sandra had come up as soon as Dave went away, bored with Jill and drowsy old John I., giving them only the curtest of good nights. Overhead Jill heard a plane fly­ ing, slowly, circling over the town. The beat of the m otors was low and near, and she sprang out of the tub and wrapped herself in a towel and crouched at the window to glimpse the skim ming lights, the shadow of fleet wings against the purple night sky. That was Spang’s sky up there, Spang’s “wild blue yonder,” the hollow, secret, endless roadway that Spang was traveling so happily now. Awkwardly she scrubbed herself dry, wriggled into a night gown, slipping her arm back into the sling, aw are of Sandra, standing in the door, watching her. “Funny thing,” Jill was thinking as she looked at the reflection of Sandra in the m irror, “no m atter how m uch she dresses up you al­ ways feel that somehow she isn’t quite clean.” Aloud she said, “Hello, Sandra. W hat’s on your mind? Is your room all right?” Sandra cam e into the room, perched on the end of the chaise longue, draping all the flounces gracefully about her legs. “It’s all right,” she said, grudg­ ingly, “but awfully lonely! You don’t know about m issing a m an so m uch it m akes you ill, Jill. You couldn’t.” “Oh, coouldn’t I?” Jill thought, angrily. But-she kept her voice cas­ ual and her face controlled, as she went on brushing. “It is sort of tough to have your bridegroom snatched aw ay from you, isn’t it? But you m ust have known that something like that would happen. You’d been m arried to a soldier before.” Sandra’s teeth clicked. “It needn’t have happened. It was all done for spite by an officer who hates m e. He contrived to have Ricky sent away. We had forty-eight hours! Forty-eight hours of ^ach other, and then there I was— alone!” “But of course you were m ore or less used to being alone. The ad­ justm ent wasn’t quite as difficult as though you’d been with Ric for months or m aybe years.” “ You don’t know anything about love,” Sandra rem arked. “You don’t know w hat torture it was, seeing him got Afl I could do was stand there at that gate and watch him trudging away, looking back to wave at m e. . . She began to cry, carefully dabbing away every tear, her mouth twitching. Words Between Two Girls “If Ric hadn’t had a home for you to come to, it would have been bad, wouldn’t it?’ * Jill kept her eyes on the m irror, catching glim pses of Sandra over her shoul­ der. “Just w hat would you have done, anyway?” “I don’t know. I’d have had to do something—try to follow Ricky, I suppose.” “Or perhaps,” Jill was cool, “you wouldn’t have m arried him at all? You’re a sm art woman, Sandra. Somehow I can’t see you m arrying a boy—even one so attractive as Ric, just on'an im pulse.” “I suppose you’re trying to say, without being nasty about it, that I m arried Ricky because I thought your fam ily had m oney?” Sandra said viciously. “I wasn’t thinking about his fam ily when I m arried him. I was only thinking that at last I loved a m an who loved m e and that we had something beauti­ ful that we m ustn’t lose!” “And now,” said Jill, a deadly coolness smooth as glass in her voice, “you’ve lost your idyllic love and got a lot of stodgy in-laws in­ stead. Tough break!” “It’s quite all right.” Sandra studied her nail$. “I knew how it would be before I cam e. Ricky warned me. He told m e that you w ere very possessive, Jill, that you thought you had a private m other, and that he had always been m ade to feel like an outsider ifc his own home.” , Jill lifted her eyebrows. “Ric's 'really wonderful when he sounds off, isn’t he? If you didn’t know him awfully well you m ight believe ev­ ery word of it. You’d alm ost be­ lieve that his home was a place he really cared about, not just an ad­ dress to w rite to when he needed a check.” “ You don’t know very much about your brother, do you?” Sandra was cool, too.

PHILADELPHIA.—The A m erican youngster’s yen to be “a real cowboy” never w anes, and two w ar veterans, taking a leaf from their own childhood experiences, have m ade capital of it. Their unique business enterprise, spaw ned by w artim e dream s, has harnessed the childhood am bition of being able to do real cow­ boy rope spinning tricks, which from tim e im m em orial have in. trigued youngsters a t the m ovies, circuses, fairs and rodeos. Their success formula was the ‘ development of a “magic lasso,” which anyone can quickly learn to spin, yet which is "safe” in .,the lands of children. Merely a piece 3f hand-finished sisal rope, it is Stted with a tiny imbedded swivel io permit free-spinning of the loop. rhe_ swivel also serves as a pro­ tective link should kiddies decide to 3o some fancy steer roping on play­ mates. Children, of course, represent the bulb of potential customers. But even Hollywood studios have found the new gadget ef­ fective, using it as a standard prop in movie m aking. Broad­ way shows, where roue tricks m ust be m ore skillfully per­ form ed, find the “m agic lasso” an efficient aid. P artners in the unique business are David Knox and Horace Reese, both of Philadelphia. Childhood friends, both served in the arm ed forces, Knox in the arm y and Reese in the navy. W henever per­ sonal plans for the postwar period were being discussed, the two old Mends agreed that their m ajor ob- Iective w as to be in business for ihemselves. Upon their discharge from the services, the two pooled their re­ sources to found the business de­ voted to m anufacture of the novel lasso. Starting on a sm all scale, without benefit of a veteran’s loan, the two have seen their business grow to an organization" employing is m any as 14 people with an A - nual production approaching the naif million m ark. Lately, a second rope development nas been introduced by the Knox- Reese combination—a unique jum p­ ing rope that is adjustable so one or five can skip to their heart’s con­ tent, without ruining the fam ily ilothesline. American Flowers Bloom in Profusion In Far-off Pacific Am erican flowers are blooming in profusion this sum m er around arm y and m arine corps hospitals in the far-off Pacific area. Convalescent servicem en, finding their way back to health in these hospitals, all the way from the Phil­ ippines to Japan are the gardeners. The flower seeds, and vegetable seeds too, are supplied by Daugh­ ter'! of the American Revolution. Tiny packets of seeds have been distributed through w ar departm ent cooperation to the various Pacific areas. This year, 6,734 packages of seeds have been sent to the hospi­ tals. The grand total since the proj­ ect was originated is m ore than 50.000 packets of seeds. The seeds are given to the con­ valescent m en and are planted in gardens adjoining the hospital building. The patients have their choice of seeds and thus can grow the varieties of flowers and vege­ tables which m ight be found in their own yard back home. Started during the w ar, the proj- act has been continued by D.A.R. because of the m any requests from hospitals overseas. In m any hospi­ tals there is keen rivalry among the men in growing the flowers and vegetables. M edical officers re­ ported that the w ar gardens have greatly aided patients in their re­ covery to health. Ex-G.I. Carries Out Order; Judge Pays HOUSTON, TEX --A cting on the plea of the youth’s m other that she needed someone to do the work on the fam ily farm , D istrict Judge Frank Williford perm itted an arm y veteran to return home.

David Knox spins the “ m agic lasso,” a new rope invention which enables children to realize their dream s of becoming “real cowboys.” G.i. Youth Gives Germans Novel Farming Lesson Deep in the heart of occupied Germany a thriving sample of In­ diana agriculture provides a novel lesson in American farming meth­ ods for people of the w ar-ravaged country. A M idwest home demon­ stration agent and a G.I. youth on occupation duty pooled their efforts and ideas to show nearly 100 Ger­ m an youths how to be good farm ers while augm enting their m eager diet by using vegetables grown by them ­ selves. Pfc. Birch Bayh Jr. of Vigo county,' Indiana, is the American soldier and Miss M ildred Schlosser is the home dem onstration agent who are responsible for the project. Bayh, 19-year-old Hoosier farm er, qualifies as an able instructor by virtue of his past record. Two' years ago, as a contestant in the annual production - m arketing contest of National Junior Vegetable Growers association, Bayh w as tilling a seven-acre plot on his grandfather’s farm , where he raised crops worth m ore than $1,677. The crops were so good, Bayh sent a special batch to his father, Lt. Col. Birch Bayh ot the 17. S. arm y, then stationed in China. In the national contest, Bayh’s efficient operation rated so high he won the Midwest regional NJVGA title and a $200 scholarship from the $6,000 in contest aw ards pro­ vided annually by A & P food stores. Using this fund to augment his savings, Bayh entered Purdue university w here his studtes were interrupted by a call to arm y duty. L ater he was assigned to the Ger­ m an occupation forces. Im pressed by the soil near his station in that country, and encour­ aged by seeds sent as a gift to him by M iss Schlosser, home demon- stration agent and NJVGA advisor of his Indiana club, Bayh quickly recruited nearly 100 youngsters in his area and started a garden proj­ ect. He divided his land into 45 in­ dividual plots with two children as­ signed to each. The young growers were given a series of lessons in American methods, tilling, planting and weeding. The results of their efforts are already evident, with a bum per crop of tom atoes and com well on its way to m aturity. Most of these products are new to the youths, but they indicate that they’ll eat them with pleasure. Bank Bulges Again— With Golden Wheat CENTERVIEW, KAS. — The once-thriving Centerview State bank, which was liquidated 15 years ago, again is bulging with deposits — but this tim e the m oney is in the form of golden wheat. Because of a shortage of granary space, A. B. Francis and his son, Raymond, leased the brick building which once housed the bank and have filled it with wheat. Penn Liked Solid Houses, Deed Shows SUNBURY, P A --W illiam Penn, Pennsylvania’s solid Quaker found­ er, apparently was no advocate of tem porary em ergency housing. A deed for one of the first land grants m ade by the pioneer Penn family in this community, dated January, 1773, specified among its numerous provisions that a “substantial dwelling with brick or stone chim­ ney, 25 feet square” m ust be built within three years of the date the i deed was executed. Frederick Nagle of Berks county, who rented the land for from $5 to $10 a year, in present money, com­ plied with the spirit of the deed. He built a log home so substantial that it lasted and was used as a dwelling place until this year. M iss K atherine Reed, a school teacher who now owns the property, has the original parchm ent of the grant m ade by Penn’s heirs. CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT BUSINESS & INVEST. OPPOR.

Opportunity Knocks AEAP Ihc IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT A MAN DIED - \ He had worked late—he was tired—thoughtlessly he walked to the right along the darkened highway. Beyond the turn of the road were the lights of home. Speeding through the early darkness, a driver urged his car along, hugging the edge of the road. A dim shape, a sudden sicken­ ing jolt — and the terrorized driver, his car careening, sped on — around the curve, past the lighted cottage beside the road. And in the still of the night, a man died. These are the ingredients of accidents and death at night. Often • the victim contributes to his own death by not walking to the left, facing traffic. But far too many pay with their lives for the reckless driving of the hit-and-run car coward. To him self-preservation is more urgent than the saving of a life. To his kind let this be a warning. Of all highway and traffic vio­ lators, the hit-and-run driver fares worst. Sooner or later, his crime leads to prison and disgrace. !The highways shall be cleared of these auto highwaymen.

C. “Honor and shame from no con dition rise; Act well thy part, there all the honor lies.” The above auotatious has long been a favorite with me. In fact I memorized these lines in early life, and across almost half a century the great troth they contain has been a great trnrh they contain has been a great stay to my life. Hal. lelnjab! We realize that we are in a world where both honor and shame exist. We cannot question this, God has honor for every life and soul, while the devil has shame for everyone. If we live for God, love and cherish the Bible, heed its wonderful and marvelous truths, pray much, obey our Lord and Master, serve and worship Him in the beauty of holiness, then our lives are honorable, regardless of gardless of all the persecution we may have to endure, all tbe hard­ ships we may have to pass through, all thests and trials that may come ODr way, a)] the lies tbat may be told on us, and all the powers of evil, sin and wickedness that may be marshalled against us. Noth ing can overthrow our honor as long as we live for God and prove ourselves faithful. It is true that the enemy does bis utmost to bring us to shame and disgrace, but this Is an impossibility with him, and with all who serve him, if we live in God’s wiil, and thereby have the protecting power and presi nce of God with us. Praise His holy name. It may he possible for men to honor a dishonorable person, and to fall to honor an honorable per son at least for a while. Some- times a man who is sinful and wicked in his life may he honored by those of like charactar because of bis education, his politics, his money, or bis influence. However, such honor comes to naught, soon­ er or later Then an honorable man may not receive hinor from many people because be stands a. gainst their sinful indulgences, their corrapt politics, tbeir ungod­ ly and wicked business, their un. sound principals, or their false doctrines, creeds and professions. However, he will always receive honor from God and the very best people Such honor is lasting. It doesn’t fade and pass awav. It doesn't crumble and go to dnst, if he lives a true Christian life. Even his enemies, sooner or later, will honor him. They know he is right, and therefore honor him for hisjstaud against wrong and for truth and righteousness. This should, encourage ns to live clean lives, godly lives, noble lives. Honor may not always lead one to fame, but it may be better than fame, as some famous peopla were very undeserving. Fame may be without honor, and honor may be without fame, but to be truly hon. orable means tbat one is truly man ly, womanly, clean, trutbfnl, bon. est, dependable and trustworthy. Genuine honor comes Irom God. It is not of the devil, sin and wick:, edness. It is not bestowed upon ns bv the wicked world, neither can it be taken from ns by the world, so loug as we obey God and cherish it above diamonds, rubies, gold and riches. ’’Them that bon. or me I will honor, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteem, ed.” This was so in olden times, and it is likewise so today. Everyone should desire to. live an honorable life, therefore take God into his life. Dishonor and disrespect for Gnd and His holy Word, and for tbe Christian relig Ion. and for the church of the liv­ ing God, and for His people, and for all tbat is high and holy, is tbe reason men live dishonorable iives. We must respect God, live for and obey Him. and cherish everothiug that God bestows upon us, and will bestow, if we would be honorable, and have honor enthroned upon our hearts, Ives and souls. It costs something to be truly honorable It costs us our best Itcosts ourlives and souls. We must spend and be spent for God. It costs our time, which we must Use to the best advantage of oar own lives, and for the lives of our fellowmen. We mnsl love God snpremely, love all mankind, and love all that is holy, and in the meantime hate sin and wickedaess. We have to hold in high esteem our God-given talents, onr golden opportunities, and use ail that God gives us for our own good and e- IernaI welfare, and for the welfare of mankind. Honor comes from living honorable. Shame comes from living shameful. It seems, however, that lots of people Iova and cherish shame from the wav they live. They dishonor God, dishonor the Bible, the Chris, tian religion and all that is high and holy They shun the noble and tbe good, bnt seek the low, the wicked and tbe mean. They shun sobriety, but cherish drunk, enness. They turn from good peo­ ple, good company, bnt seek the company of the immoral, the de praved and degraded. They turn from the good things of Iite unto the bad and ruinous, degrading, demoralizing, destjuctive things. They are low in their aims, their plans and purposes. They seek the iow levils of evil, sin, wicked­ ness instead of the high places of godliness, holiness, purity and up rightnass They seem to desire tbat which makes one bad in life and character rather than tbe good and honorable. It seams thet they are bent on shameful living, aud seek a coarse that is shameful. They seem to cherish shame, and don't even blush when we look in. to their gnilty eyes, guilty counte­ nances, and speak to their guilty consciences. People can get so shamefnl in tbeir depravity until they seem rather to appreciate it. God pity their poor deluded souls If you would be truly honorable, act well vour part in life. Live, for God. Do His will. Speak the trnth, live the truth. Conduct your self right. Live on noble princi­ pals. Build on the best foundation, Pray much. Let the Bible be your main text book. Cherish its won derful truths and make them yours. Love godliness and holiness, but hate and despise all sin and wick- edness Be kind and gentle, meek, humble, lowlv, Christlike. Spend vour time wisely. Read tbe best of books and literatnre. Keep the very best company. Turn from pride and worldliness as you would from a daadly viper. Hate any­ thing that would poison your body, vour mind, your soul and your spirit: Live on a high plane of thought, of godliness, of hoiiness. Don't be afraid of holiness, accord­ ing as it is laid down in the Btble, but be afraid of anything that tends to ungodliness, and would lead a. way from holiness of heart, mind, soul and spirit However, it seems taut the average man is afraid of qoliness, bnt very tame and friend Iy toward evil, sin and wickedness, and that which is unholy. He shuns a holy man of God, but seeks the company of those who are un­ holy, and will lead him astray and away from God, and keep him ont of heaven. There are plenty of people who are not afraid of a drunkard, who may be dangerous, but thev ate afraid of a clean, up right, nable, holv man of God. They shun the good man’s com­ pany, but seek the company of the drunkard or the dram drinker, or gambler, or society degenerates. Yes, afraid of that which is high Regardless of how others may live, and how much shame they may bring upon their lives, ‘‘act well your part.” If your mother is wicked, and lives a shameful life, even a disgraceful life, you live for God Rise and climb high in godliness, holiness, righteous­ ness and honor. Yon won't have to answer for the shameful, wick- rd life of vour mothsr. Win her to Christ, if possible, but don't let her sharaefulness drag you down. It won’t, it can’t, if you will hold to God’s unchanging hand Ifyour father Iiues a wicked, shameful life, you live for God. Turn as far toward God as he has turned from God. He may be a drunk­ ard, but you ran be a saint. Hate the thing that has made him a drunkard. Figbt liquor with all your might, but love his soul with all your heart. Pray for him and win him to Christ if possible How ever, his shamefulness is on his own life, not yours. Glory to God forever, Your bnsband may live a very shameful life, bnt you don’t have to. You can be just as far to tbe opposite. Vou can he just as saint. Iv as he is wicked and shameful All the demods on earth and in hell can't drag yon down if you will pnt your life and sonl in the care and keeping of God. Amen and hallelujah! While vour hus. hand goe$ down in sinfulness and shame, you go np the narrow way with lesus in pnrity and holiness, The same can be said to the godly man who may have a wife that is living for the devil, whose virtue and character is gone. Regardless of how shamefully she may live, you live honorcbly. You wili win out. Your life will be noble. Those who know you wiil call you a bles­ sed man. They will have the ut­ most confidence in you. '1Actwell your part, there all tbe honor lies.” No conditiou can drag the honor. abie man of God down, as long as he keeps true to God. AU the ho. nor lies in acting well his part. Thank God for this wonderful fact. We can all act well our part and receive honor from God, and from the best people. Happiness It's not so much the ‘things with, out,— The things you may posses, As money, riches, bouses, land. That make for happiness; Although the world may think it so And seek to thus attain, Or strive for other outward things At last to find them vain. And mind that’s filled with noble thought, A heart that's fixed on God; A will to do -the honest things And walk where Jesus trod; A purpose great, an aim that’s high, A soul that’s clear of sin— This briugs a happiness so sweet, And springs up from within.

Tribute to Davie Servicemen In tribute to the memory of servicemen of Davie County who made the supreme sacrifice, and in recognition of the loyalty and patriotism of the living who serv­ ed in the foreign wars of fhe ra­ tion, the names and war service records of local servicemen and women will be enrolled on the permanent National Roll of Hon­ or at Washington Gathedral bv the Thomas Ray Davls Post No. 4024, Veterans of Foreign Wars, it was announced by R. C. Evans, Post Commander. Adoption of the plan by the Davie County war veterans was confirmed by F. R. Leagans, Post* Adjutant, who stated, “300 mem­ bers of the Post are expected to participate in the privilege of me­ morializing fhe names and service records of the war dead of the re- cent and all past wars, and of preserving those of the living, in thanksgiving for their safe return.” A War Memorial Chapel, as “a national shrine of each patriot's devotion, where the permanent National Roll of Honor will be enshrined, is proposed as part of the cathredal structure. Prior to the war the foundation of the transept in which fhe War Memo­ rial Chapel will be built, was con­ structed at a cost of $375,000. “The plan to enshrine the names and records of servicemen and women of all the nation’s wars is receiving nation - wide response with all of the states of the union now represented,” according to Rev. Merritt F. Williams, canon of Washington Cathedral. Canon Williams, chaplain of the Washington, D. C., V. F. W. department, a veteran of both World Wars and former chaplain of the war-lost carrier Wasp and the battleship West Virginia, and chairman of the National War Memorial Committee, also stated, '1The final design of the cathedral —a house of prayer for all people —is such as to provide all the fea­ tures of a worthy memorial—dig­ nity, permanence, usefulness, nat­ ional religious significance, and exceptional beauty. The privilege of enrolling names and records of the dead and also those of the living, who returned safely, is open So all and is not contingent upon any consideration other than the wish of She veteran or next of kin. Post Commander R. C. Evans stated that while the V. F. W. Post is sponsoring the enrollment of all its membeas, deceased and living, “it is our hope to include the names and records of all men and women of Davie County who served the nation’s armed "forces in the recent and all past wars.” “The Memorial Chapel,” he stated, “according to plan, will be ornamented by insignia of famous units of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and CoastGuard, Nearthe chapd alte* will be repository for the permaneut records of the Na­ tional Roll of Honor, open to public inspection.” The cathedral, visited by tuns of thousands each year from all parts of the country, and now two-fifths completed at a cost of about ten million dollars, is destined in ov­ erall length to be the world’s 4th longest. Names arid records of the liv­ ing and deceased of Davie County may be enrolled on official forms which may be obtained from F. E- Leagans or R. C.

H ard working plant roots need oxy­ gen if they are to do a good job of supporting the plant and collecting plant food for the above ground parts. W orking with m uck soil, N. K.

When the soils w ere “ventilated” to 18 inches the yields increased as m uch as 10 fold. When the depth of aeration was increased to 36 inches the yield of some of the crops was increased. The yield of carrots went from 3 to 33 tons per acre when the depth of aeration was increased from 4 to 38 inches. Sweet com yield went from 3 to 4.75 tons; onions from 45 to 275, 50-pound bags; red beets from 3.75 to 13.5 tons and potatoes from about 12 to 258 bushels per acre. Oxygen in the soil for the use of the plant roots is the logical reason for the difference in crop yields. Adequate plant food was available on all the plots. Rainfall during the season was sufficient to eliminate water as a limiting crop production factor on the muck soils. KNOW YOUR BREED Blue-Game Chickens A tradition that has been re­ corded by the historians of Dela­ ware, is that during the early days of the Revolutionary w ar the men of Capt. Jonathan Caldwell’s com­ pany took with them gam e chickens noted for their fighting ability. These chickens were said to be of I the brood of a fam ous blue hen. The company soon received the sobri­ quet “Blue Hen’s Chickens," and Uie state of Delaware in 1939 adopt­ ed the Blue Hen’s Chicken as the state bird.

WASHINGTON.—Recently the President turned down a very flossy television set because he already had one. It was installed in the White House last January in time for Mr. Truman to “see” the installation of the new Republican congress. However, I im agine this innovation caused nowhere near the flurry among the W iite House staff that ensued on that day in 1878 when the first telephone instrum ent w as put in. That w as in the adm inistration of Rutherford B. Hayes of Ohio, the 19th president—and that w as the year in which the D em ocrats, who already had control of the house, acquired control in the senate as well. However, the opposition, when it® becam e the m ajority, m ade blunder after blunder. M r. H ayes continued his adm inistration with a quiet if perhaps som ewhat monotonous dig­ nity, until he w as succeeded by an­ other Republican, President Gar­ field. I doubt if the even tenor of Mr. H aj es' existence was frequently disturbed by the ringing of the telephone bell — or m uch of any­thing else for th a t m a t t e r .Very few resi­ dences or places of business pos­ s e s s e d p h o n es th e n . F u rth e r ­ m ore, the tele­ phone w as by no m eans accepted as a m eans of co m m u n icatio n for presidents or their entourages in those days. In any case, the White House m anaged to lim p along on one phone until the end of Presi­ dent Cleveland’s adm inistration. By the tim e President McKinley entered the White House, all gov­ ernm ent offices had phones and they were accepted as every-day necessities, but they w ere not an im portant elem ent in the handling of W hite House business. When Teddy Roosevelt cam e in, despite his strenuous activities and what w as considered then a some­what revolutionary outlook, he made very little use of the tele­ phone himself. Then along came Franklin Roose­ velt and the New'Deal, a part of which was a five-position branch exchange with more than 200 offi­cial extensions and 20 outside trunk connections to handle the calls.‘‘White House calling” became a by-word. Then also cam e the first woman telephone operator and probably the m ost efficient of either sex that the White House ever had or will have in m any a day. Louise Hach- m eister—“H ackie”—is probably fa­ vorably known to m ore famous users of the telephone than any other operator in history. H er gen­ ius . in being able to locate people anywhere in’the world has been the Subject of m any a story. Louis Howe, who introduced her to the President while she was working at Friends of Roosevelt headquarters, called her “the world’s greatest telephone detective” because, he ★ ★ Baukhage said, “she doesn’t need a num ber to get her m an." Once she located Cornelius Van­ derbilt Jr. with no other clue than that he was motoring east from California. I don’t know how m any long­ distance calls a day she put in at the peak of the w ar but I do know that the num ber of long-distance calls out of , W ashington jum ped from approximately 11,000 a day in 1939 to well over 48,0.00 in 1945. To­ day they have dropped back to a little over 44,000. It is fair to as­ sume that the White House calls have followed the same curve under the nimble-fingered direction of “Hackie.” Even by 1935 it took five operators in shifts to handle the White House calls. At that tim e Miss H achm eister was the first and only woman to operate a White House switchboard. President Trum an uses the tele­ phone a good deal — he has so m any friends on Capitol Hill that IT PATS TO BE EDUCATED Some kind of high-water m ark for radio quiz show prizes m ust have been reached when $7,440— largest amount of money ever offered on a radio show—w ent to M r. and M rs.

His bowling alley is pretty dusty and the dirt doesn’t often fly on his horseshoe pitching court—or what­ ever the technical nam e of that arena is. As to the “video,” it can’t be half the novelty to him that the old-fashioned telephone instrum ent was to President Hayes. ★ ★ R ussian E nigm a Illu stra te d Unique drinking tongh an<J b a tt pen, courtesy Jam es F .

Treating Turkeys for Blackhead RecommendedA little item on a large subject appeared recently in the OflScial publication of the American Veter­ inary Medical association. D iisobutylphenoxyethyldim ethyl- benzylammonium chloride, it seems, has been recom m ended by leading veterinary authorities as a “pre­ ventive of naturally occurring en- terohepatitis of poults.” “ Enterohe- patitis” is a disease m ore common- Iy known as “blackhead.” Boris Krelov has gone home. He was a m em ber of the staff of Tass (official Soviet news agency), sta­ tioned for some three years in Washington. So far as I have been able to learn, his Am erican contacts, which were m any, both official and per­ sonal, m ade not a single ideological im pact upon him or his way of thinking. He upheld the Russian cause; he talked m ore freely than m ost Russians in a semi-official or official capacity do but (also so far as I can learn) he never offered the slightest compromise of view­ point, never accepted any argu­ m ent or explanation of dem ocratic (A m e ric a n -s ty le ) m e th o d s of bought or action. And yet — and here is the thing th at baffled m ost of us— he w as well-liked, he was good company, and if we could have found the tiniest peg on which to hang an idea, he would have inspired us to w rite about Rus­ sia “with a heart,” as a Rus­ sian woman interpreter is re­ ported to have begged of Sam Welles, Time’s correspondent in Moscow. We wonder about Boris. We would have liked so m uch to sit down and talk frankly and freely with him about the common prob­ lem s and the still m ore common m isunderstandings between our countries. W as he able to appear so genial and friendly land charm ing because he held such high rank at home that he wasn’t afraid to con­ sort, as far as personal m atters went, as a trusting friend? Was he so deeply indoctrinated in the ideology of Marxism-Lenin- ism-Stalinism that he w as filled with pity rather than the typical suspicion which seem s to perm eate m ost Russian-American relations? One slight clue we have, though it m ay be a false one. Once, at a rather Ultimate gathering, Krelov’s hostess finally grew a little im pa­ tient and said something like this; “Listen here, Boris, we’re friends. Surely you can be frank with us and explain why your govern­ m ent—” Before she could finish, (he guessed w hat was coming) he held up his hand. “ Please,” he said with a dis­ arm ing sm ile that took the sting out of his words, “We are having such a pleasant tim e, but you force m e to say this: I cannot explain w hat you wish because you people are just too stupid to understand Commu­ nism .” If that sentim ent is a sincere and typical expression of how the men who run Russia feel, the road ahead is a rocky one. Kipling once put into verse the problem he felt the foreigner faced in trying to under­ stand the American. W hat he said m ight be applied to Russia: "Inopportune, shrill accented, the acrid Asiatic mirth that leaves him, care­ less 'nud his dead, the scandal of the elder earth. How shall he clear himself, how reach yossr bar or weighed defense pre­ fer—a brother hedged with alien speech and lacking all interpreterI” ANNIVERSARY: Bells Tolled In Hiroshima, Japan, the bells tolled. People of the city stood si­ lently in prayer for a moment, then went on about the business of liv­ ing. It w as the second anniversary of the radiant, consuming flash of the world’s first atom ic bomb. Hiroshima, which saw 92,000 of its citizens im m olated in that uncon­ trollable outburst of energy in 1945, w as perhaps the one place on earth where the bomb could be thought of as a reality. Everywhere else it w as a nightm arish, Damoclean sword; but in Hiroshima the people were paying it a sort of fantastic and bewildered adulation, They tolled bells, and .they planned the building of a modern city with a peace memorial at the spot over which the bomb had been dropped. At other points across the globe, the atom ic age was living up to its awful reputation by wringing fear­ some com m ents and predictions from m en who are supposed to know about it. Robert M. Hutchins, chancellor of University of Chicago, said that two atom bombs which now could be m anufactured would m ake the Unit­ ed States uninhabitable if exploded simultaneously. He m ade it a com­ plete Jerem iad by adding, “We know that some other country will have the atom ic bomb within five years. We know that when that happens we are all set for the final catastrophe.” , In a constructive m om ent, Dr. ' Robert Oppenheimer, atom pio­ neer, said that usable electrical power derived from atom ic en­ ergy m ay be available, by 1952. But everybody knew that the Unit­ ed States was stressing development and production of the atom ic bomb to build a stockpile for utter de­ struction. And everybody knew that Russia was laboring furiously to­ ward the sam e ends. The people of Hiroshima did well to toll bells two years after they felt the bomb. It brought to mind an old, poetic question; Did the bells herald a wed­ ding or a funeral? INSOLENCE: Slap Hands The United States, visibly irked by recent actions of the new Com­ m unistic Hungarian government, vented its diplomatic rage in a stinging note which accused Hun­ gary of “inadmissibly insolent" con­ duct toward Am erican diplom ats in that country. Second cause for U. S. anger was the arrest and beating in Budapest of an Am erican citizen and the sub­ sequent unsatisfactory explanation of the incident offered by Hungarian officials. One of the m ost harshly worded ® - protests to come from the state de­ partm ent since Am erican planes were shot down over Yugoslavia a year ago, the note m arked the first official unpleasantry to be delivered by the United States to the puppet Hungarian regim e. The incident grew out of the ar­ rest of Stephen T. Thuransky, an Am erican citizen, for his alleged “ revolting and scandalizing vilifica­ tions in public” of H ungary’s presi­ dent and other governm ent m em ­ bers. Thuransky, his wife and two daughters later w ere taken into cus­ tody by U. S. legation officials and rem oved to Vienna. In the protest note, the state de. partm ent pointed out that the ar-iest of an American citizen on pure­ ly political charges is “absolutely inadmissible” under the armistice agreement which prevails in Hun­ gary. Also, officials of the Hungari­ an ministry of the interior were accused of being “uncooperative in the extreme and in some cases in­admissibly insolent.” VIVA: Toreador Orson Welles, the m an who didn’t come from M ars, has found him ­ self, to put it politely, on the horns of a dilemm a. The self-designated genius was quoted recently as saying he had killed 20 bulls, and im m ediately he was challenged by another actor, Fortunio Bonanova, to enter the bull-fighting ring at Tijuana, Mex­ ico, and perform for the benefit of charity. Said the Spanish-born Bonanova in an open letter to Welles, “Killing 20 bulls is a lot of killing,” neglect­ ing to add that it is also a lot of buUs. “ So let us do a corrida (series of fights) this season in Tijuana for the motion picture relief fund. I am sure the im presario would give us a Sunday afternoon. W hat do you say to two bulls apiece?”Admission: Shady side, $2; sun­ ny side, $1.

WASHINGTON. — Fourth largest wheat acreage the farm ers of this nation have ever planted m ay be realized in 1948 if the departm ent of agriculture’s revised goal of 75 million acres is m et next year. That m ark is a five million-acre increase from the pattern recom­ mended last year and a seven million-acre boost over the wheat goal set last spring before the com outlook took on its gloomy cast. Continued and unrem itting interna­ tional dem and for food grains in­ fluenced the agriculture departm ent into m aking the upward revision. While officials adm itted that the increased acreage constitutes an in­ vitation to farm ers to plant heavily in wheat, they cautioned against plowing up sod-lands not suited for sustained farm ing in order to take advantage of high wheat prices. However, an- even m ore impor­ tant factor in determ ining the na­ tion’s w heat acreage in 1948 will be the lure of the two dollar-a-bushel m arket price. D epartm ent authori­ ties adm itted that high m arket prices will do more to dictate the am ount of w heat planted than could any arbitrarily assigned govern­ m ent goal. The departm ent said the' 75 mil­ lion-acre goal, if achieved, would provide the' fourth largest wheat acreage the farm ers in the United States have ever planted. Higher plantings occurred in 1919, 1937 and 1938. Estim ating on the basis of a 19- year average yield figure of 14.3 bushels an acre, the crop in 1948 would be 1.07 billion bushels, but il the outturn follows the 1942-46 aver­ age of 16.3 bushels an "acre, pro­ duction would reach 1.221 billion bushels. In the wake of this year’s bumper crop, a much smaller 1948 wheat yield norm ally would be indicated; however, the world food shortage m akes it desirable, according to de­ partm ent spokesmen, that the United States continue its high rate of production. The United Nations has warned that the world food sit­ uation has not improved in the past year, and predicts shortages wiH continue another two years.

Wben Julia goes -to a theater with Dave Patterson, a family friend, Sandra and Jill, Julia's daugh­ ter, become engaged in a vehement argument. CHAPTER X V m "You couldn’t understand Ricky, though. H e’s so sensitive. And you aren’t a complex person at all, you know, Jill. You’re prim itive really. You are in your elem ent here on a farm . Odd that two peo­ ple could be so entirely different as you and Ricky.” “ I’m such a prim itive th at I learned to tell the truth very early, and Ric never bothered. He went in for the m ore esthetic angles; he thought living excitingly was more im portant than keeping his word or choosing high-minded people for friends, or anything like that.” “ I suppose that’s intended for a dig," Sandra said, “but it’s quite a ll right. It doesn't worry m e at all. Ricky told m e that you would prob­ ably hate m e.” "How stupid of him—to think that I ’d bother!” Jill drawled. “Why would anything you do m atter to m e, Sandra? O r anything that I •do concern you? We’re separate people. We can live our lives with­ out getting emotional, one way or another. Only don’t put on an act w ith me, Sandra. It’s no good. And leave m y m other alone. Dooley’s not like me. She doesn’t know how to take care of herself.” “I rather like your m other,” Sandra said, languidly. “I’d never w ant to do anything to hurt her, if I could help it.” “W hat do you m ean, if you can help it?” dem anded JiU1 hotly. “ You’d better m ake an effort to help it, M rs. Richard M cFarlane.” Sandra got up and strolled over to the dressing table, picked up the fram ed photograph that stood there. The picture of a blue-eyed officer in an old-fashioned, wide- brim m ed cam paign hat. “Is this a relative?” she asked, w ith studied casualness. “My father.” Jill did not look at her. “ Ric’s father, too. He died in France in the last w ar.” “Oh, yes, Ricky told me. He looks so m uch like an old friend of my first husband’s that the resem ­ blance is really startling.” She studied the picture, and her lips ■curved greedily. She licked them slyly like a cat, and her eyelids narrow ed, a speculative look grow­ ing behind them . She put the fram e down, shrugged a little. “Your fa­ ther w as very handsome, Jill, but he rem inds m e so m uch of that m an I detest that I won’t look at him any m ore. Odd that two people should be so alike, isn’t it?” “Not terribly odd. We only have a few features. They couldn’t help putting a few sim ilar combinations together.” “By the way, Jill?” Sandra paused in the door. “I haven’t dis­ cussed the future with your moth­ er. I really dread having to do it. But I do have to know w hat’s ahead of us, don’t I? ” Jill stood up, stiffening. “W hat has m y m other to do w ith what’s head of you?” she asked. “But naturally—she has every­ thing to do with it! Don’t you think it would be better if you talked to h er about it, Jill?” “Talked to her about what? What future do you m ean? You knew th at Ric would be gone, perhaps for years. You knew that, when you m arried him .” “ But that’s just it. I did m arry him . I am Ricky’s wife. And be­ cause I’m his wife I do have to be concerned about our future. Ricky has rights that have to be con­ sidered.” “ Rights?" Jill repeated curtly. “ Of course he has rights. The right to get the best out of life that he can when the w ar is over. But my m other has nothing to do with that. T hat’s Ric’s problem .” A Request for Ric’s Rights “You’d like to see him pushed out, wouldn’t you? You’d like to keep everything for yourself. You’ve been digging yourself in, haven’t you—building yourself up as such a dutiful daughter, p’.eyisg Ric down with those sly, sidelong digs! Awfully clever! B u t-I think I know something that you don’t know, M iss Jill M cFarlane! I^’s m erely a hunch I have, but m y hunches have a way of coming through. And m y advice to you is to change your antics, and quick!" Jill looked at her, her eyes like ice. “ You’d better put it in words of one syllable, Sandra,” she said, coldly. “Being a prim itive I’m no good at puzzles. I think you know how to speak plainly, if you want to do it. I think yen know a lot of very plain words, indeed.” Sandra threw back her head, “I do know the plain words! Only plain words would do for you, you smug, sell-satisfied little snob! I want ten th o u sa n d d o lla rs. Is Ih a l p la in enough? And I mean to have it. I all been putting on, I saw through it instantly. You’re all so poor, and you work in corn-fields and wear overalls and eat cabbage and grits like white trash, and put your cars up, but none of that fooled m e for a m inute. Ricky has a right to his share, and I’m going to have it.” JiU’s eyes were am ber flames. “So blackmaU is one of your spe­ cial arts, too, is it? I thought as m uch,” she said, slowly. “I sup­ pose poor R ic'h as done something foolish—the poor deluded sap! And now you’ve got hold of it and w ant to hold it over m y m other’s head, because you’ve seen how she adores Ric? Well, it won’t work, Sandra. It sim ply won’t work. Ric’s been in jam s before, and m y m other is m ore or less resigned to anything that comes now. She’s given up ex- “I w ant ten thousand dollars!" pecting anything from Ric, except disappointm ent.” Sandra pressed herself against the door, her m outh twisted to one side, her eyes guarded. “I don’t like scenes,” she said, loftily. “I hope it won’t be necessary for m e to say or do anything unpleasant. I don’t w ant to hurt your m other. I m erely w ant m y rights—Ricky’s rights. And I m ean to have them . Anything you say is entirely unim portant. You can speak about this to your m other or not, just as you please.” “I shall certainly not speak to her about it!” Jill snapped. “And if you plan any chiseling I shall do all I can to defeat you. You’ve been m ade welcome here, you’re Ric’s wife, and on his account I’ll treat you as Ric’s wife should be treated. But I’ll appreciate it, right now, if you’ll get out of m y sight. I still like to believe that I’m a lady, but when you’re around, Sandra, I have difficulty rem em bering it.” Mackey and Jill Meet Again “ I’m going. With pleasure!” Sandra bit the words off like lengths of red-hot wire. “But I’m going to have ten thousand dollars! I’m go­ ing to have it right away! Do you think I was fool enough to m arry into this fam ily without know­ ing w hat Ricky’s prospects were? I’m no child! I’ve taken care of m yself for a long tim e. I know how to go on doing it.” ‘I haven’t got ten thousand dol­ lars and m y m other hasn’t got it— and she’s not going to sacrifice any­ thing to get it—not for you, Sandra M cFarlane!” “Very well,” said Sandra, evenly. 'I see I shall have to speak to her about it m yself.” “You dare to do it! You dare to m ake m y m other unhappy—you dare! I’ll Uirow you out of the house myself. Get out of my room —get out—get out!” The door clapped angrily as Sandra slam m ed it. H er hands trem bling, her body like ice but her face and eyes blazing, Jill stood still for a m inute glaring, shuddering all over with the fierce anger that shook her. She was still trem bling all over when the ‘ door opened a cautious crack and old John I. thrust his head in, his thin hair disordered, his m ustache quivering like an in­ quisitive antenna. “W hat’s broke?” he whispered. Jill got herself in hand with a little difficulty. ‘I got m ad, John I.,” she said, hoarsely. “I yelled like a—like a. . . .” “Like a M cFarlane,” supplied her grandfather, helpfully. “I heard you. W hat w ere you yelling about?” “Sandra m ade m e m ad. She w ants money. She says she w ants Ric’s share. How could Ric have a share now—while Mother IS fillVfi? I got furious. I wish I hadn t, I did. Tm sorry if I waked you up, John I.” “I wasn’t asleep. So she wants money, does she? WiU she clear out if she gets it?” “I don’t know. But she m ade vague threats if she didn’t get it. She said she knew something that I didn’t know, something that would m ake M other unhappy. Tnat’s when I flew at her.” Jill saw her grandfather’s eyes move past her uneasily for a mo­ m ent, focus on the picture on her dresser; then his m outh drew straight and his eyes narrowed a little. W ithout a word, he walked out of the room. Then she heard a car door slam down below, and she snatched up her robe and wrig­ gled into it and flew down the stairs. Dooley had come, and Dooley m ust not know. She had to get to Doo­ ley before Sandra did. She flung open the screen door and stood fram ed in the light, all wrinkled green silk and flaming hair and eyes like black flames in a face as white as chalk. And so it was that Richard Mc­ Farlane, standing there under the light, saw his daughter. Jill drew back, startled, and said, “Oh!” and pulled her flying drapery around her. Then she got her breath a little and said, “Oh, I’m sorry! You startled m e. I was expecting m y m other. You’re Cap­ tain Mackey, aren’t you? I rem em ­ ber. I saw you at Ridley.” He cam e into the room, blinking at the light. He looked a little odd, JiU thought; there was that sam e bewildered look in his eyes, that sam e curious nostalgia, as though he were thinking back hard, trying to rem em ber something that hurt. He held out his hand. “I rem em ber,” he said. “ You are Julia, aren’t you? You were with young Gordon, down at Ridley.” “I’m JiU. Nobody ever has caUed m e Julia. Won’t you sit down, Cap­ tain M ackey? You cam e to see M other, did you? I’m sorry. She’s out just now, but she should be back soon. WiU you w ait?” He stood turning his cap around in his hands. “I cam e,” he said, “to see your brother’s wife. The young Mrs. Mc- Failane. She’s here, isn’t she?” “Yes, she’s here. Shall I caU her? She went to bed, I think. It isn’t— there isn’t anything wrong, is there, Captain? W ith Ric, I m ean?” “No, there’s nothing wrong. Not with your brother, at least. But I have a m essage for your sister-in- law. But there’s no special hurry about it.” “Will you sit down then? I’m sorry you find m e in such disarray, but I was tired, and I didn’t feel like dressing again after m y bath.” He took the chair she indicated. He said, “You’re very like your m other. She had hair like that, I rem em ber.” ‘Oh, yes,” JiU said, “you were an old friend of m y m other’s, w eren’t you? You told m e, and I’d forgotten.” She dropped on a stool and coaxed her thin garm ents to cover- her brown legs and eased her broken arm into a comfortable position. "B ut I’m m ore like m y fa­ ther,” she went on. “He was an officer, too. I was always sorry that I wasn’t born a boy so that I could be a soldier like m y father. I have a brother in the air corps —but you know that, of course. You’ve seen him, down at Ridley, I suppose?” “I m ay have seen him ,” he evad­ ed. “You’ve been hurt, haven’t you? ,What happened? Car get away from you?” “No—it was a horse. I went over her head. “ Can’t I get you some­ thing to drink, Captain?” “I could use a drink.” He smiled at her. “Could I come with you and fix it m yself?” “Of course, if you like. Men al­ ways like to get into kitchens, don’t they?” Jill led him through the hall and the dining-room, flipping switches as she went, noting that he seem ed to be studying the rooms as they passed through them . “This house is very old,” she talked on, pushing the swing door back and waiting for him to precede her into the w arm th and peach-pickle fra­ grance of M amie’s kitchen. “My m other’s grandfather built it before the Civil W ar, and the bricks were burned here on the place.” The Kitchen Is the Same She was sliding the ice cubes out of the tray, and she saw him turn and reach for a glass and won­ dered how he knew where to look— but of course glasses were kept in the obvious place. If he hadn’t found one there he’d have opened another cupboard door. “Say when,” she prom pted, as she balanced the bottle over the glass. “Oh, but I should let you pour your own, shouldn’t I? I’m awfully inexperienced at this sort of thing. Captain, you spoke about Lieutenant Gordon? You don’t hap­ pen to know where he is now, do you?”(TO BE CONTINUED) “ I * Tw f 4 T .■ r e TURKISH TRACK STAR . . .

Morning Meals Don’t try to argue your family Into eating a whopper of a break­ fast! Make it so good and inter­ esting that they just can’t refuse it! You m ay have found that coax- ing helps your family to eat luncheon and dinner, but as you m ay know, it just won’t work for breakfast. The things that do work are vari­ ety, downright good food, gay, cheerful dishes and . linens, and pleasant attitudes. Of course the tim e elem ent is im portant, and this m ay need a bit of working on if your folks are in the habit of sleep­ ing until the last m inute and then trying to dash off some fruit juice and coffee. When you sit down to think about it, those five minutes extra sleep really don’t m ake you any more rested, so get the fam ily up early enough to eat breakfast properly. Mother can help this along by get­ ting up and starting breakfast. The sm ell of pancakes or bacon plus the arom a of coffee really does help in getting the fam ily started on their way out of bed. Breakfast should start off with fruit or fruit juice. This not only is refreshing, but also is a good way to get started off on those vitam ins and m inerals for the day. Follow the fruit with cereal, prepared or cooked, and vary this from day to day. If the cereal looks a bit un­ interesting, plan to serve fruit with it to add a touch of color' and flavor. Eggs are recommended for break­ fast whether you have to watch your calories or boost them. But, do serve them in different ways so they always rem ain interesting. Then, .too, you can use eggs in waffles and pancakes when real variety is desired. Interesting breakfast breads do a lot toward m aking the m eal one to anticipate with delight.

MEMORY SELECTION—Whatsoever thy hand Hndeth to do. do it with thy m ight— Ecclesiastes 9:10. EDITOR'S NO TE: Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Edu- cation; used by permission. By WILLIAM CULBERTSON. D. O. Of The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. W ISE indeed is that legislator who understands that there are two extrem es to be avoided in dealing with the problem s of the working m an. The one extrem e is that heartless, cruel exploitation of labor which grinds m en to powder, which deals with individuals as chattel. The other extrem e is to provide such an am ount of free tim e for the individual that both his per­ sonal life and economic prosperity are in danger. Work is good. It is .well to keep in mind that before the fall m anwas commanded to tend the garden. Perhaps to some of us that com­ mand is not a command to work, because Ilie evidences el sin W 3 cursed creation were not present! Life without purpose, life with­ out activity fo r good, would b e vain and actually intolerable. I. An Illustration of Prudence and a W arning Against Indolence (Prov. 6:6-11; 18:9). THE illustration from the crea­ ture world is apt. Ants, as this scripture states, have no overseer, and yet they are diligent in provid­ ing for the tim e of need. It would seem as though they are constantly active in caring for pres­ ent and future needs. In Palestine, where they m ay be active through­ out the year, there is still the need of stored provisions for- the rainy season, and so it is true that the ant gathers food in the harvest for future need. Anyone who is tem pted to be in­ dolent would be wise to consider the ways of the ant, and to m anifest as much concern for present and future needs. The sluggard is described as one asleep, as one who is never satis­ fied, but constantly w ants m ore slum ber. Such folding of the hands, such indolence, brings poverty,- and that poverty com es as a robber. Indolence is not m ere passivity. The m an who fails to work is not guilty of omitting to do w hat he should do, but he is actually a rob­ ber of society. There is an active elem ent involved in indolence; not only has the m an failed to con­ tribute, but, in addition, the good that he m ight have done has re­ m ained undone. The sluggard is therefore a brother to the destroy­ er (Prov. 18:9). II. An Illustration of Indolence and a Lesson in Prudence (Prov. 24:30- 32). IT IS striking that the Word of God presents the ant as the illustra­ tion of prudence, but when it comes to an illustration of indolence it di­ rects om- attention to m an. The illustration is that of the m an who is lazy, who is void of under­ standing. The Preacher visits him. Going to his field and vineyard, he finds it grown over with thorns, cov­ ered with vetches, and the stone wall broken down. Instead of citing the particular lessons learned, the Preacher sim ply observes that he looked on, thought deeply, and received instruc­ tion. Perhaps the best antidote to laziness is to see it in its inac­ tion. The squalid conditions, the in­ ability to cope with em ergencies that we norm ally see in the life of the m an who w ants only ease are sufficient to w arn m ost of us against it. ' E ntirely apart from the dignity of labor, the homely recompense of being able to m eet our own needs is the compensation of self- respect that initiative and re­ sourcefulness bring. M ay we have a higher goal as we labor than m erely providing for our own needs, though this is certainly im­ portant. Beyond it, of course, is the ability to help others also (cf. Eph. 4:28). III. A God-Given Reward for La­ bor (Eccles. 5:12). ONE of the great compensations of faithful labor is sleep. This passage speaks of the sleep of the laboring m an as sweet. When as Christians we have fulfilled our duty, when we have given an hon­ est day’s work, the recom pense of the Lord is surcease from labor. The great stress of the Word of God is sim ilarly on the m an in authority doing that which is right for those who labor under him, and on Bie laborer, to be worthy of his hire. Thus does the Bible guarantee a cordial and happy re­ lationship between em ployer and employee. When either party de­ parts from biblical standards, chaos results. Here is a plan as up-to-date as the present hour, as workable as the m ost precise m echanical device ever m ade. All that is necessary is that the Word of God be followed.
