I’m a pilgrim in the valley With God's Spirit as my guide, And I’m trusting Him to lead me Safely to the other side, Where I’ll dwell in peace forever In a mansion fair and grand. There to slug and shout His praises With the happy angel band. Chorns I’m a pilgrim in the valley As I travel here below, Looking uo to Heaven’s portals Where the sainty people go, Walking in the steps of Jesus On life’s straight and narrow - way, Praving, hoping, as I journey. For the homeland some swset day. I’m a pilgrim in the valley Where so many souls are lost, Groping on a downward journey, Thinking not to count the cost; So I’m poiotinx them to Calv’ry For redemption full and (ree, Through the precious blood of Tesus That was shed for yon and me. I’m a pilgrim in the valley Where the sick and suffering stay, And I’m telling them of Jesus Who will heal them if they pray. And will lead them as a shepherd By the waters bright and still, And along the narrow pathway Where they’ll land on Zion’s bill. R e a d , T h i n k "Therefore by the deeds of the law the e shall no flesh be jnsti fled in his sight for by the law is knowledge of Sin.’’ Know Ye not that so many of ns as were baptised into Jesus Christ were baptised into his death, there­ fore. we buried with Him by Bap tistn into death that like as Christ was risen np from the dead by the glory of the Father even we also should walk In newness of life for if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his Re. surrection. “There is therefore now on con. demnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit for the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of Sin and Death, though he was a son vet learned He obedi ence by the things whisb he suf. fered and being made perfect, he became the author of of Eternal Siivation unto all that obey Him.’’ “For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness and their sins and thetr iniquities will I remember no more in that he saith a new cov. enant, he hath made the first old, now that which decayeth and yvax eth old is ready to vanish ajuav.” S. T. FOSTER, Mocksville, N C1, R. 4 . M a r r y i n 9 R e c o r d A Califorian. accused of bigamy, is charged with having acquired eight wives, three of them in the last five weeks. Maybe be thinks he’s set-a marrying record of some sort, but just the other dav we read that Dutch government forces in fava had “recovered” fonr truck loads of wives belonging to an In. donesian sultan. The report faiUd to state how many wives there are to each truck load, and how many remained in the sultan’s little love nest after the caravan of fugitive wives * had wandered off. And while these detailed statis­ tics are missing, it is plain never­ theless that the Californian, instead of breaking a record, is something of a piker when it comes to ac­ cumulating spouses.—Ex. T h e S p l i t I n C a li­ f o r n i a The Wallace for President move. meot may vitally affect the out­ come of next year’s presidential elections, Somecompeteot obser. vers have not been convinced that not even a third party movement headed by Wallace would atiract enough voters to defeat the Demo­ cratic ticket. However, the Wal­ lace movement at least has already split the Democratic party in Cali, fornia. Recently, it will be recalled' a group of California Democrats headed by Robert Kennedy, held a rally and launched an ail-out cam­ paign fot the nomination of the former vice president and cabinet officer. \The move was followed by an extraordinary meeting of the California Democratic state com­ mittee whose 600 members were re presented either in person or by proxy. The regular organization, as re­ presented by the committee, em re; President “splinter" movement, it- confidence in President Tru­ man. and “wholeheartedly” in­ dorsed the principle of aiding dis. tressed nations, especially those “forced to adopt political ideolo­ gies because of economic or armed aggression.” In this declaration the commit tee scrapped portions of a propos ed policy statement issued by its chairman, James Roosevelt, on June 3, which attacked the “Tru man doctrine ” It is about as certain as anything In politics can be that Wallace’s name will be before the Democra­ tic national convention next year and that Democrats from at least several strategic states which have large electoral votes will battle to the end tov their leader. After Mr. Truman has been nominated, the Wallace folio wars will probably bold a 'rump” convention and no minate him on au independent ticket. Iu order to insure the defeat of Mr. Truman and the election of a Republican President, it would not be necessary that Wallace receive heavy votes in all states. Such an outcome couli easily result from splits in the Democratic party ranks in a very few states having large electoral votes and in which the popular voting strength is nearly evenly divided —Charlotte Observer F u n d a m e n t a l There is a healthy—and appar. ently world wide—ngitation at this time for increased productivity of individual workers, for a return to the old-fashioned idea that a day’s pay calls for an honest day’s work. Even labor leaders are beginning to urge their members to produce more, pointing out that standards of living rise and fall with pro duction. This is such a fundamental truth that it is surprising it has be stressed at all, but for many years now people have been ied to be­ lieve that the world owes them a living, and that if they don’t feel like working for it, a benevolent government will provide. We are just now beginning 10 re* bound from that idea,' A govern­ ment can give to the people only that which it takes awav'.'rom them,' and there always comes a point where it can take no more. This point has been reached in most European and Asiatic coun. tries, and we are approaching it here.—Statesville Daily. Now is the time to sub­ scribe for The Record. M r . H o o v e r O n R u s s i a Herbert Hoover is the latest A- merican statesman to propose that the rest of the world be organized without Rossia if that country per. sluts in obstructing the peace and In her refusal to aid world restora­ tion. After giving one of the best de. fiuitions of communism is complete disloyoity to all ideals of tree na­ tions”—Mr. Hoover said he found some encouragement in the must­ ering of world opinion against Rus- sian policies. We should, he said, take advan- take advantage of this growth of opinion against Russian obstruc­ tionism and make peace with Ja pan whether Russia likes it or not. We should then, it Russia refused to coperate in the Foreign Minis­ ters’ conference in November, in­ sist that a condition of further A merican aid to Western Europe be that three western zones of Ger manv be combined, and that we thou make peace with this part of Germany. That process would effectively include Russia from the organize tion of all the world except her own satellites, and she would find herself in a position of most unen­ viable isolation. The growth of world public opinion is already forcing Russia into that kind of isolation. How­ ever much she may threaten and bluster and intrigue, she will find eventually than an aroused world public opiniod is a force with spiri­ tual reserves that are beyond the reach ,of communistic materialism, regardless of how many armored divisions it may have. Hitler and Mussolini bad to learn that lesson. The former invented blitzkrieg, with which he boasted that he would conquerer the world. For a time it seemed irresistible; but the moral force of world opin­ ion soon created a co operative material force before which the vaunted panzer divisions crumbled like chocolate soldiers The same moral force of world public opinion is now growing day by day, and as it waxes, what Mr. Hoover calls the .Russian “instru. ment of ideologieal penetration” is growing correspondingly weaker. We have seen it on the wane in France and Italy, where the cabi­ nets have been purged of Com­ munists and we have seen a grow­ ing resistance to it In the Low Countries and in Austria. The world communist movement attempting to destroy the existing order of western civilization, can be driven steadily behind the Iron Curtain if we do not relax our ef­ forts to keep world opinion alive, vital, and growing, and if we can be assured of co-operation in or­ ganization the rest can be assured of co operation in accordance with the Marshall plan or something operating on the same principle. Without that co-operation, as Mr Hoover warns, the United States may be forced into some sort of isolationism. To maintion such a position we should have to be armed to the teeth and just and would be forced to rely on our own resources and just wast until the rest of the western world w2s readv to join us In maintaining our civi­ lization against the communist ch llenge. That wo.uld be both expensive and dangerous —more so than any number of Marshall plans. Since, therelore, we have a growing world opinion on our side, we should not allow it to die but should foster it in every possible way. ' It is barely possible that such an alignment might win some co op. H e a v y D r i n k i n g C a u s e s V i o l e n t D e a t h s Tbe following artieles from the Minneapolis “ Morning Tribune” is just as applicable here as in any part of the country: Heavy drinking causes or helps cause more than a third of all ac cideutal deaths in Hennepin Coun­ ty—not only In auto crashes, bnt also in fights, shooting, tumbles and in just plain crossing the street while drunk. Goodwin Toss, county toxicolo­ gist and chemist, reported this fact in the authoritative Quarterly Journal of Studies on Alcohol. Different people, Joss said Wed­ nesday, vary in the amount of al­ cohol they can consume before be­ coming menances t 0 themselves and others. Bet, if they have e- nough drinks, they all reach that point sooner or later. The National SafetyCoiinciland tbe American Medical Association say that a man is intoxicated if be has 15 one-hnndredths of a per cent of alcohol in his blood, and this i- widely accepted as a legal definition. Joss, basing his results on blood tests of 94 accident victims during a 12-months period, reported that there was at leaht tbis amount of alcohol—or just a shade less—in the blocd of 38 pet cent of the vic­ tims Of these; Twelve were ptdestriaus hit bv automobiles or streetcars. Eight died of chronic alcoholism plus heart disease. Four were driving or riding in cars involved in accidents. Four were involved in other types of accidents—among them, a fatal fall from a hotel balconv. Three were found dead ift fires— including a man and wife burned to death in tbeir home after adrink bout. Two had taken part in quarrels or fights, one of them a stabbing in a tavern. Two were involved in fatal shoot­ ings. The Minneapolis and Hennepin County results, Joss pointed out, check with results of a similar study made in New York City. loss writes that presence of al­ cohol in the blood stream of about .15 per eent .results in “unstable disturbances of various faculties and inco-ordination resulting in a staggering gait.” “This is true,” h e asserts, "whether a person is a regular drinker or at# abstainer, male or female, youug or old, robust or sickly. “Although the occasional drink, er beeomes intoxicated much last er, the regular drluker will con­ sume a sufficient amount until bis blood contains the same amount of alcohol as the occasional drinker’s,’’ F o s t e r R e u n i o n A reunion of the Foster family was held on Sunday, Aug. 24th, at the home of Mrs. J.

Wage and salary workers are earning retirement and survivor’s benefit right under tbe old-age aud survivors insurance program of the Social Security Administration. Do yon know of any former workers in commerce or industry fields of employment covered by the Social Security Act—who ate now 65 years of age or older and who are now working? If von do, tell them— That they may be eligible for old-age. and survivors insurance monthly cash benefits, if they ap­ ply for them at tbe social security office. That monthly cash benefits are payable to aged Insured workers for any month in- which thev earn $14.99 or less In jobs covered by the Social Security Act. Thatbene fits are payable only when claims are payable retroactively only for three months prior to application, and that any delay beyond that time after retirement will result in loss of benefits. Do you know any dependent sur vivors of former wage or salary earners in' commerce or industry who have died since December 31, 1939? If you so tell them— That they should visit or com­ municate with the Winston-Salem office of tbe Social Security Ad­ ministration, located in Room 437, Nissen Building, to see whether they are eligible for old-age and survivors insurance benefits. That it is possible for them to be eligibie is important, to avoid loss of any benefits they might qualify for. That survivor's montly benefits are payable retroactively tor only three months prior to application, so that any delay beyond that time after tbe death of the breadwinner may result in loss of benefits that have been earned for tbe'm. AND FINALLY—do you know that, if YOU are 65 years of age or older. YOU should visit the Winston-Salem office of the Social Security Administration to disc.>ss the advisability of filing a claim for benofits, whether or not you intend to retire at once? YOU SHOULD!

MEMORY SELECTION—Better Is a Uttle with righteousness than great revenues without right.—Proverbs 16:8. ED ITO R'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. D. Of The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. AS BELIEVERS in Christ we are responsible not only for the way we earn our living, but for the way we spend w hat we earn. Of course we m ust earn our living honestly, but if we spend foolishly that which we have earned,, we shall have dissipated m uch of the effect of our exam ple in earning. Possessions are a tru st from God, and we shall have to render ' an account of our stewardship. Just because we have given a certain percentage of our income to Christian causes is no reason to think we shall m eet with divine approbation with regard to our stewardship. If we give a tithe, well and good, but what about the other nine-tenths? Is God pleased with our stewardship there? I. The Vanity of W ealth (Eccles. 5:10, 11). IN ANY study of wealth, it seem s necessary to begin with an un­ derstanding of its lim itations. We live in a world in which m en fre­ quently lay great im portance on possessions, and indeed, there are m any things which wealth can pur­ chase. On the other hand, there are some things that money cannot buy. And further, we should recog­ nize that our possessions are not eternal, that they m ay suddenly fade away. The passage here rem inds us of the fact that wealth for wealth’s sake is bound to be a disappoint­ m ent. The m an who loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver, any m ore than the m an who loves pleasure shall be satisfied with pleasure. Augustine was right when he said that m an could be satisfied with no less than God himself. • Notice how accurately the picture is drawn. If we have increased wealth, we have increased responsi­ bility (v. 11). That fact is as un­ alterable as the m ost rigid law we know. The only advantage is, as the Preacher expresses it, the behold­ ing of goods with the eye—not a very great advantage after all. II. The Proper Accumulation of W ealth (Prov.' 16:8). IT IS just as true qs when Solo­ mon wrote it, that “B etter is a little, with righteousness, than great revenues with injustice.” This statem ent needs no argu­ m ent, needs no proof. If we would have the honor of m en, self-respect, and the blessing of God, there is no alternative. III. The Im proper Accumulation of W ealth (Jam es 5:1-6). r P H E apostle Jam es speaks of a -J- condition that will obtain in the last days (v. 3). There are m any evidences that the condition he de­ scribes has had altogether too m any fulfillments in recent history. Jam es excoriates the rich who have defrauded 1#ieir employees in order that they m ight fare sump­ tuously and live riotously. These un­ scrupulous rich have taken advan­ tage because they were not resisted (v. 6). Such wealth is corrupted. Notice once again that the re­ sult of their sin will rise to break them . It is a serious thing to trifle with sin, to eat the bread of iniquity. God has no patience with injustice in social relationships. Sooner or later judgm ent will come. IV. The Proper Use of W ealth (Prov. 11:24-27). T IBERALITY should character- -J-' ize the child of God. It is true that the Bible condemns the atti­ tude of im prudence, yet it also con­ dem ns the attitude of the m iser. To withhold m ore than is m eet, also tends to want. How blessedly true it is that there is a recom pense to giving. Here we read that the one who w aters shall him self be w atered. Our Lord af­ firmed the sam e truth in Luke 6:38. To have it within our power to help, and fail to do so, is to bring npon ourselves censure and con­ demnation. Therefore, we should seek to perform the good (v. 27). This passage concludes with the statem ent that one who searches after evil shall find that evil will come to him. The m an who sets his heart rfo do wrong will not have to w ait long to find the occasion to do that which is in his heart. Many are the injunctions in the New Testam ent regarding the proper use of wealth. For exam ple, the Christian has a duty toward his own fam ily (I Tim. 5:8). He is en-joined to be sympathetic and gen­ erous in his giving to help others (II Cor. 8:8-15). Certainly he is to dispense his goods with the glory of God in view (ef, Col. 3:17,).

Morgan Horse "American as America" G o v e r n m e n t R u n s U n i q u e B r e e d i n g F a r m i n V e r m o n t By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator, WASHINGTON, D. C.—Some time ago the world was star­ tled to learn from Pravda, the official communist party news­ paper in Moscow, that it was a Russian who discovered “wire­ less (as radio was called in its youth), and as if that weren’t enough, it was announced later by the same authority that the electric light, which poor Thomas Edison certainly thought he had something to do with, was likewise a Russian invention. If I ever read, as some day I fear I shall, that ice-cream sodas and hot-dogs were first discovered on a pleasant afternoon by som e m ysterious Muscovite as he sat dream ing on his back steppes, I shall announce that bortsch and vodka are Am erican products and that the Volga boatm en were simply a prodigal local of the CIO m aritim e union. Meanwhile, however, I am re -^ m inded by the departm ent of agri­ culture that one thing which is as A m e r i can as A m e r i c a and w h i c h no for­ eigner had bet­ ter try to appro- p r i a t e a s a home - g r o w n product, is the Morgan horse. Justin Morgan is im m ortalized in bronze and you can see him today standing on his pedestal before the m ain stable of the United States M organ horse farm which covers about 1,000 acres of rolling, wooded coun­ try two m iles north of Middlebury, Vt. The original farm of 400 acres was presented to the United States departm ent of agricul­ ture by Joseph Battell. Colonel Battell had long been an ad­ m irer and breeder of Morgan horses, and had founded the Am erican M organ register. The farm was established in 1907. The area was increased by an additional gift of about 35 acres by Colonel B atten in 1908, and by purchase of about 550 acres from M iddlebury College in 1917. The land, underlain with lim estone, is well adapted to the production of horses, Baukhage In the selection of foundation breeding stock, and in planning subsequent m atings, em phasis was placed upon size and quality, and ability to perform the three gaits, walk, trot and canter. These points Morgan brood mares, with their foals, run in one of the pastures of the department of agriculture’s II. S. Morgan horse farm near Middlebury, Vt. continue Io be emphasized. Also, every effort has been m ade to pre­ serve adequate m uscling and depth of body and to preserve and en- hance-.desirable tem peram ent. The stocky stallion, - original of the post-mortem effigy w as nam ed for its owner, a singing schoolmas­ ter,-w as foaled in 1793 and died in 1821. He (I m ean the stallion not the schoolmaster) had a rom antic Dareer and he is the progenitor of the breed, which as the departm ent of agriculture says, is one of the few breeds of horses developed in the United States. Justin was a “sm all, active anim al of great power and endurance, with the rep­ utation of being able to outwalk, outrun, and outpull any other herse in Vermont and the neighboring states.” He had the power to transm it these qualities, says the depart­ m ent, to his three known sons and the United States governm ent is doing its share to perpetuate the characteristics for which his ilk is known: “ beauty, easy keeping, soundness, endurance, and spirit coupled with gentleness.” The first tim e I ever went to Ver- fnont I w as attracted to these plucky little horses. L ater I learned more about the M organ horse. He weighs less than 1,000 pounds, he is not over 14 hands high, round-bar­ relled, with powerful chest and leg muscles, a proud head and a stout heart. He has done a lot to develop the state of Vermont and his ad­ ventures have carried him far afield. In a Actionized but rem ark­ ably accurate story of “Justin I,” M arguerite Henry tells how the boy Joel, who “gentled” Justin as a ;olt, later lost track of him and finally found him again and how Joel, in his cavalry uniform with a sprig of evergreen in his helm et, eat proudly on his diminutive mount when President Monroe re­ viewed the Green M ountain boys when they cam e back from the W ar of 1812. ' The author has Joel say about Justin afterw ard: “He w as just a little work herse that cleared the fields and helped Vermont grow up. Come to think of it, he’s like us. He’s Am erican . . . that’s w hat he is, Am erican.’' The M organ horse helped other states and territories grow up, too, for their equine brotherhood went W est with the em igrating farm ers, and m ore than one American sol­ dier was proudly m ounted on a Morgan as he went into battle. Gen­ eral Custer rode off on a Morgan horse when he went out to fight the Indians, a whole regim ent of cav­ alry had Morgan m ounts in the Civil W ar. B re e d in g P ro g ra m I s U n d e r W a y Now, “The M organ horse breed­ ers” Dr. M cFee of the anim al hus­ bandry division of the departm ent of agriculture told me, “have given m ore attention to the traits desir­ able in a riding horse.” (Forty de­ scendants of Justin becam e famous as trotters. Some of you rem em ber such nam es as Ethan Allen, Black Hawk and Dan Patch.) A t the Morgan farm today usually about forty-five horses are under test. According to the official descrip­ tion, the breeding program there calls for “the measurement of each youngster at one year of age, at two years, and at three years. All are trained under saddle and in harness and are put through con­ trolled perform ance and endurance trials when about three years old. The data thus obtained form the perm anent records of the individ­ uals. They are used also in studies of sire and dam inheritance and as criteria for formulation the sta­ tion’s breeding program . For the tests of three-year olds the depart­ m ent’s horse specialists have de­ vised specific trials to m easure the walking and trotting gaits and the horses’ endurance in harness and under the saddle.” Always versatile, the Morgan was as chipper when he went to the m eeting house on Sunday pulling the surrey with the fringe on the top as It was weekdays when it could drag a log to the sawmill which often took a team of its big brothers to budge. And where buggies are still used, you’ll often Ihid a M organ between the shafts. He is used on the trail, too, for his forte these days seems to be under the saddle. The Morgan horses have found homes far from the shadow Of ttiejf native Green Mountains and today the stock probably is increasing more rapidly .in California than anywhere in the East. I regret to say that on m y last trip to Ver­ mont, this sum m er, though mighty Mount Mansfield looked up at the heavens with the. sam e stern profile that' it did when I first panted, pack-laden to its top, the m aple- sugar tasted as good (though it cost too m uch), the m ist still held the peak of Killingon as gently as ever in its graceful fingers. But I m issed the quick tattoo of those sm all strong hooves on the hard high­ ways, and the silhouette of an arched neck against the sky above a mountain pasture. Fm glad that Uncle Sam is doing his part, in the shadow of Justin’s statue, to perpetuate the breed that is “just like us,” as Joel said:— American. r l \ A m HOW TO CELEBRATE A BIRTHDAY . . .

N E W S R E V IE W R i o t i n g F l a r e s i n I n d i a ; B r i t i s h G e t S t e r n R u l e IN D E P E N D E N C E : I n d ia R io ts During the two days before fate­ ful India becam e a land of free men, m ore than 200 died in a bloody orgy of violence and rioting in the huge northern province of Punjab. Lahore, the capital, was the cen­ ter of the disturbance, but fierce fighting also took place throughout the west and east Punjab country­ side. Wide sections of Lahore were aflame. This took place on the eve of In­ dia’s independence day, just before the Indian constituent assem bly sat down to function as a free govern­ ing body. Cause of the rioting, incited, as always, by terrorists, was the bit­ ter disagreem ent arising out of the partitioning of India into two sepa­ rate zones—one for Hindus, the other for Moslems. In New Delhi, the independence day cerem onial program began with two m inutes of silence for those who died in the fight for free­ dom which was finally achieved through am icable negotiations with the British. IRON HAND: B r ita n n ia R u le d It w^ll m ay be true that 'Britons n ever,' never, never shall be slaves,” as the anthem has it, but in view of Prim e M inister Clement Attlee’s new em ergency action giv­ ing the governm ent stern powers over British industry and labor, m any in the islands are now har­ boring serious doubts about that. The em ergency bill, which Win­ ston Churchill charged invoked such restraints as the government has never before imposed except in tim e of w ar, has been passed by both houses of parliam ent and now - f o r better or w o rse-is law of the land. Designed to bring Britain out ofIly economic slump, tie I empowers Ie government to com- m and labor and industry to do practically anything and every­ thing, if it is in the. national in­ terest. . Rallying cry of the British con­ servatives, led by Churchill, is “dictatorship.” Anthony Eden, for­ m er foreign secretary, got into the fight' by asking that parliam ent cut short a planned va­ cation so the m em bers can be on hand to exam ­ ine the m easures which the government will or­ der. Eden “The house cannot be an absent spectator while the govern­ m ent does a split over the ever-wid­ ening abyss,” said EWen1 also a m em ber of the Conservative party. C O -O P IN Q U IR Y : T tv o Q u e s tio n s Although the public is not too well inform ed about it, one of the m ost im portant and fiercely* waged do­ m estic post w ar battles is that being fought between private busi­ ness and cooperative enterprises. Crux of the feud is the fact that cooperatives are tax-exem pt, while private- business is not. From this evolve two basic questions: 1. W hat effect does tax-ex- emption have upon growth of the cooperatives? 2. Is tax-*xemption a factor of discrim ination against pri­ vate business? A house sm all business subcom­ m ittee lias begun an attem pt to find the answers with an investigation of the cooperative community en­ terprise at Greenbelt, Md. In the Greenbelt case, business groups have charged that the government has aided the cooperative in keep­ ing private business out of the de­ velopm ent area. This hearing, as well as others on the west coast, is being conducted by- Rep. B. W alter Riehlm an (Rep., N. Y.) as acting chairm an of the subcom mittee. In view of the theory that taxes will rem ain high, com pared with the past,- for at least 50 years, ac­ cording to economists, the tax- exemption feature of co-ops’ exist­ ence will grow increasingly im por­ tant. R E D S A U C E R S : S o v ie ts C u r io u s Those flying disks were fun while they lasted, but by this tim e every­ body has practically forgotten them . Well, alm ost everybody. L atest report having to do with the aerial chinaware is that Soviet agents in the United States have been ordered to solve the m ystery of the disks. Presupposing the re­ port to be true, it m eans, a t least,Mt tie saw were not of M Soviet espionage agents here are said to have been advised that the Krem lin believes the flying saucers m ight have some connection with arm y experim ents on methods of knocking out enem y radar. Tourist Trade Operating on the highly plausible theory that left-over land m ines are not only unhealthy for wandering tourists but are also bad for busi­ ness, the French m inistry of re­ construction is working hard to clear all possible danger spots in form er fighting areas around France. While the French adm it that erstwhile battle zones m ight attract heavy tourist trade, they are not taking any chances. N O T H U M B O N S C A L E S E x t e n d P r e p a c k a g i n g t o M e a t That old caricature of the butcher resting his thumb on the scales as he weighs out the m eat soon will vanish completely from the Amer­ ican scene if the trend toward pre­ packaging of fresh cut m eats con­ tinues at its present pace. Approximately 100 stores across the nation currently are operating their m eat departm ents on that ba­ sis, and their cash registers are re­ cording am ple proof that attractive­ ly cut m eat wrapped in cellophane and placed in display cases sells it­ self as efficiently as a butcher’s sales talk could. With the popular cuts of m eat in weights m ost in demand placed in open-top refrigerated cases, the housewife can shop at her leisure and not be compelled to w ait her turn in line. From the retail stand­ point, prepackaging cuts down store overhead and increases turnover. Although so far, prepackaging largely has been confined to retail shops, large chains are becoming m ore interested in stream lined m er­ chandising plans. One has a m eat self-service experim ent in operation’ in about 10 Detroit stores, with the prepackaging done at a central dis­ tribution point. At least one local of the Amal­ gam ated M eat Cutters and Butcher W orkmen’s union has vetoed the idea of pre-cutting fresh m eats,, but general opinion among other union locals is that the practice would be a favorable one insofar as it would allow butchers to concentrate on their skilled trade instead of spend­ ing tim e serving customers. Customer dem and, which adm it­ tedly takes peculiar turns at tim es, can, nevertheless, be anticipated by analyzing custom er buying habits. For instance, steaks and chops would be cut in several thicknesses so that virtually every custom er could pick up exactly the kind and cut of m eat he had in mind. Experim ents have alm ost wholly disproved the theory that loss of personal service in butcher shops would result in a decline of sales, principally because attractively packaged m eat displays become an effective selling m edium in them ­ selves.

Iraduofes CAREER R O W IN G =ESSIO N ! tm.li r :ir,. THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. ’’"V ' ■'LOST LOVER Richard M cFarlane, who disappeared during the first World War, leaving his wife, Juliat and two children, suddenly returns 25 years later and identifies himself as Captain Mackey, stationed at Ute same camp as his son, Ric, serving in World War n. Ric has be* come involved with Sandra Calvert, a divorcee who Captain Mackey knew at one time. He threatens her, bat she and Ric m arry anyway, and she ar­ rives at Julia’s farm to live. She startles JuIta by recognizing a picture of Rich­ ard as that of Captain Mackey. Sandra and Jill, Rlc’s sister, have a quarrel during which Sandra demands 910,000. That night Captain Mackey arrives, say­ ing lie is there to take Sandra to Ric. CHAPTER XIX “Gordon? No, I don’t know where he was assigned. Some flight train­ ing school, I think. He w as a splen­ did fellow.” “I heard a plane go over ^a little while ago.” Jill let w ater‘run to fill the ice tray, wondered if she should offer him another drink. She wasn’t used to this aspect of hos­ pitality, usually her grandfather did it, or som etim es D ave. “I thought about all of you—Spang and you, all you air m en,” she babbled on, a bit nervously, wondering why he had picked up that awful old wood­ en potato m asher. M am ie had left it lying out—it was a thousand years old and all scarred w here Ric had gnawed it when he was a baby. “I envied you,” she ended, thinly. He perched on the kitchen stool and lighted a cigarette. “Smoke these?” he asked. She shook her head. “Now and then. Btit Mother doesn’t like it m uch.” “Tell me a little about yourself. You’re not in school?” he asked, coolly. “Good gracious, no!” Jill laughed. “I’m practically middle- aged. I’m alm ost twenty-seven years old. I was a w ar baby—last war. Tve never seen m y father. He didn’t come back.” “In every w ar som e of us don’t come back,” he said slowly. "B ut we’re all vain enough to hope that we’ll be remembered.” "It’s the old urge for im m ortality, isn't it?” Jill said, sensing some­ thing in this m an’s mood that an­ swered the aching thing she had kept in her heart so long, the part of her that belonged to Spang. “ So, you see I have to be m y father’s immortality. Ric and I are his fu­ ture—all the future he has. In school I used to read all those weird books, all about the transm igration of souls, and m etem psychosis, and all that fantastic stuff, and for a while I pretended to m yself that I was my father, that perhaps he’d been killed just at the very m om ent I'd been born, and that his soul had gone into m y body, and that really I was Richard M cFarlane.” An oddly gentle sm ile moved over his face. “Perhaps that did happen. Perhaps his soul did go off and leave him and come to rest in your body. And if it did and if he knew I’m quite sure he wouldn’t wish for anything better than to live on through som e one so lovely and sweet as you!” She led him back to the living- room, and found an ash tray for him, and forgot for the m om ent that he had really come to see Sandra. She said, when the silence had stretched a little, “Do you have a daughter, Captain M ackey?” He looked up sharply, and she saw his lip twitch a little. T a lk A b o u t a L o s t D a u g h te r “I lost m y daughter,” he said, quietly. ''Oh, I’m sorry!” “It was a. very great loss,” he went on. “Now that I’ve seen you I know how great m y loss w as.” "I’m sorry. We’ve both lost, haven’t we? A daughter needs her father terribly, and I suppose fa­ thers need their daughters, too, don’t they?” "They need them very m uch. But sometimes they fail to realize the need until it’s too late. I’m quite sure I didn’t appreciate m y daugh­ ter—when I had her. I—had m y mind full of other things.” “But of course your daughter that you lost can be a sort of glory to you, don’t you think? My father is like that to me. If rtiy father could come back, I suspect he’d be a little em barrassed by the splendor I in­ vested him with, and very likely your daughter would be just a nice, human girl, too—m aybe she’d wor­ ry you by staying out too late and smoking and things like that. But because we don’t have them we can keep them wonderful and extraordi­ nary, can’t we? And m aybe it com­ forts them a little for being, sep­ arated from us, if they know. Do you think they could know, possi­ bly? People think a lot about life beyond the grave, in w artim e, don’t they?” “I wish your father could come back to live u p . to all the things you’ve built up for him in your mind, Jill M cFarlane. But there’s a big chance that he m ight be a sad dis­ appointment.” “Oh, he couldn’t be! He couldn’t be, no m atter how dull he was, or stern or irritable or anything. Be­ cause no m atter w hat he was, he’d still be my father! Just as Ric is still my brother, even when I get furious at him for being weak and doing outrageous things, like this m arriage. But I’d fight for him till BY ; 7i-zlen y IfUUvi ■ we both died, if anything threatened him . Fam ilies are like that.” He rose and moved absently near her and laid his hand for a m om ent on her hair. Jill took the hand and pressed it, looking up at him , ter­ ribly sorry for him. He m ust, she w as thinking, have loved th at lost child very much, and no doubt the hurt of that loss had turned him in upon himself, m ade him bitter and m isunderstood, m ade him the person Spang and others called Old Cyanide. Jill got up, a little disturbed by the sharpness of her own emotions. “ You said you wanted to see m y sister-in-law.” She m ade an awk­ w ard effort to get back to common­ place ground. “Shall I call her now?” “I suppose so.” He seem ed to pull him self back from some re­ m oteness, with difficulty. “I cam e to take her away. I’m taking her back to her husband.” “I'll get her,” Jill said. “I hope she’U go with you, Captain. Though, “ I lost m y daughter,” he said quietly. to be awfuUy crude and terribly frank, I think Ric would do m uch better in the arm y, if he were alone.” “I’m sure of that,” he said. “I have another plan I hope to be able to work out for Sandra. One that will be better for everybody.” “It’s certainly generous of you to take the trouble,” Jill rem arked. “I hope there is an answer to this problem. I know Sandra isn’t hap­ py here.” She started for the door and then stopped, as a slippered fig­ ure cam e shuffling down the stairs. “Oh, G randfather—I didn’t hear you. G randfather, we have com­ pany. This is Captain Mackey, from Ridley Field. My grandfa­ ther, M r. M cFarlane, Captain. The captain has come to take Sandra away, G randfather.” John I. M cFarlane walked slowly tow ard the m an in uniform. “So you’re Captain M ackey?” the old m an said. R ichard M cFarlane looked at his father steadily. “I am Captain M ackey, M r. M cFarlane,” he said, evenly. “How do you do, sir?” John I. seem ed to wait. His breath cam e heavily, his nostrils and his lean throat quivered. Then with an abrupt gesture, he held out his hand. “How do you do, Captain?” he said. They clasped hands gravely, and it seem ed to Jill that they were a long tim e about it, that they were searching each other, studying each other’s face with an intentness that was odd for two people who were- utter, strangers. F a th e r a n d S o n S h a k e H a n d s Then John I. said, “So you’ve come to take that woman away— th af one young Richard m arried? He sent for her, did he?” The captain waited a m om ent be­ fore he answered. Then his words cam e slowly. “I prom ised Richard M cFarlane that I would take her away from this house, sir. It’s quite im portant that I keep m y prom ise to R ichard M cFarlane, don’t you think?” ............................. John I. drew his bps m. “Give m e a m inute or two to get used to it,” he said, dryly. “A captain keeping a prom ise to a private.” “ Im portant that a captain keep any prom ise, Mr. M cFarlane, even a prom ise to him self,” the other m an rem inded him. “ In a case like that, I’d say he’d better go very slow m aking prom­ ises to him self,” John I. rem arked. “He m ight m ake a few he couldn’t keep.” ' “A m an learns by experience, don’t you think, sir?” “M ight be. That would depend on his experience,” John I. argued, “Now, take a m an that had never had a thought for anybody but him­ self, his experience m ight not be m uch help to him—that is unless he changed his ways a lot.” “ Only fools and dead m en never change,” returned the captain. “Ex­ perience can teach a m an a great deal. It can teach him , for in­ stance, that there’s a tim e for speech and a tim e to be silent.” John I.’s black eyes sharpened and then grew sober. “If you’ve learned that, sir, you’ve learned the m ost im portant thing in hum an experience,” he said. “I’m an old m an and I know.” “And being an old m an, you’ll give a younger m an credit for try­ing?” “I am always glad,” John I. Mc­ F arlane spoke slowly, and Jill was a little im patient with him for be­ ing so pontifical and m aking such tiresom e speeches, though Captain M ackey seemed not to be bored or am used by him at all. “I am al­ ways glad,” the old m an went on, “to give credit where, credit is due. Good night to you, Captain.” They shook hands again, and Jill saw how little her grandfather looked, so shrunken, so old. Then he turned and went toward the stairs, and he seemed to grope for the door, and she heard his feetf stum ble as he went up ahead of her. She heard his bedroom door close, as she reached the upper hall, and there was a queer, sharp sudden sound beyond it, a sound alm ost like a sob. She knocked on Sandra’s door, and it was opened with suspicious alacrity. Sandra still wore the feathered robe, the sculptured curls, the bluish shadow on her eyelids, the rosy curve of lip m eant for al­ lure. But her eyes were hard as m atrix and as cold. “W hat’s Rod M ackey doing here?” she demanded. Jill closed the door, moving into the room. “ You listened, did you? He’s a captain from Ridley Field. He says he has come to take you to Ric.” “How can I go to Ric? I don’t even know where he is! How will I live when I get there? Ricky told me to stay here till he sent for me. This is some kind of trick. I know Rod Mackey. I’m not going.” “Don’t be an idiot, Sandra. Cap­ tain Mackey told G randfather that he had promised Ric to bring you.” “AU right, I’ll talk to him ,” she said, sullenly, “but I won’t go with him. No woman in her right mind woiUd go anywhere with Rod Mack­ ey.” “How silly!” Jill w as scornful. “You assum e that every m an has designs on you, Sandra. I don’t be­ lieve you know Captain M ackey at all. I wouldn’t be afraid to go- with him .” “Oh, no doubt. You’re the naive type that men like Mackey look for.” Sandra was posing, Jill saw, even walking down the stairs. Her head was up, she was pointing her toes, she was being regal and keeping her eye on the long m ir­ ror in the lower hall. She was the affronted queen when she faced Roger Mackey at the living-room door. “Just what,” she asked in an imperious tone, “is the m eaning of this, Captain?” He said, “ Go pack your bags, Sandra. I’m taking you to your husband.” A C lo s e C a ll F o r M a c k e y “Thank you, I’m not going. I doubt if Ricky knows anything about this at all. You’re meddling again, aren’t you, Rod Mackey? As­ serting your authority to m eddle in the affairs of other people, that don’t concern you!” “On the contrary, this concerns m e,” he insisted. “I have a very definite commission. Otherwise I shouldn’t have m ade this long trip.” wFor goodness sake, Sandra, you said you were breaking your heart because you had to leave Ric,” Jill exclaim ed. “I should think you’d be delighted to have a chance to go with Captain M ackey.” Sandra gave her a slow, pitying look. “Did you ever see this of­ ficer before, Jill?” she asked, cold­ ly. “Why, of course. I m et him at Ridley Field.” "D oes he rem ind you of some one? Some one you’ve seen be­ fore?” Sandra went on in that sam e deadly level voice. Jill did not answer because she was startled by the odd, harsh sound that Captain M ackey m ade. But his voice cam e, level and even. “I rem ind her of her father,” he said, looking straight at Sandra. “And she rem inds m e of m y own daughter. We’ve been comforting each other because we both know what we have lost. People with im agination should indulge their whims som etim es, but not too far —not too dangerously far! Im ag­ inations have a way of getting away from you, of traveling at high speed to all sorts of rem ote places. Even to Mexico! Now, if you’ll kindly pack your bags, M rs. Mc­ Farlane, Jr., we’ll be on our way. Just one bag, please. The rest of your things can be sent for later. And you needn’t be uneasy. I’m taking you straight to the place where you .ought to be.” (TO B S CO N TIN U ED ) COLORFUL FIESTA GARB . . . Descendants of Spanish Con- quistadores and Pneblo Indians will stage a re-enactm ent of their final peace treaty as a highlight of the Santa F e Fiesta.

IN THESE UNITED STATES Shure and Begorrah— She’s Welcome to I t SPOKANE, WASH. — For 50 year an 82-year-old English­ woman resentfully carried the Irish nam e of O’Connor. She resented the name so much in fact, she told Judge Carl Quackenbush, that she delayed marrying her late husband for two years because she did not like the name. M oreover, she tes­ tified, ever since her m arriage she has bewailed the fact that she was m istaken for an Irish­ woman. The court did not hesitate giv­ ing her back her m aiden nam e of Elizabeth Jane Cook. The de­ cision m ay have been prom pted by the fact that she already had it engraved on her tombstone.

Am erica’s oldest community festi­ val, the Santa Fe Fiesta, commemo­ rates the reconquest of the south­ west territory and especially of San­ ta Fe, the form er Spanish capital, by Gen. Don Diego de V argas in the year 1692. The reconquest cam e 12 years after the Indian uprising in which all Spanish persons north of the border fled back into Mexico or were killed. Twenty years later, in 1712, Marquis de la Penuela, gover­ nor and captain general of the New Mexico territory, decreed that a fiesta should be held an­ nually “for all tim e to come? in honor of the retaking of the City of Santa Fe. This was in keep­ ing with a vow, m ade prior to the reconquest by General De V argas, to hold a fiesta in honor of the Virgin of Guadalupe. This annual celebration, prior to World W ar II, was one of the out­ standing festivals in the country, with thousands of tourists coming to join with local Spanish-Amer- icans, Mexicans, Indians and Anglos (Caucasians who have settled here from other states). The colorful pageantry of the re­ conquest of the city, the covered wagon days parades, Indian m ar­ kets and dances, native m usicians with their folk m usic and dancing, often including, as it will this year, the im portation of a M ariachi band or orchestra from Old Mexico, Con- quistadores Baile or Ball, always have intrigued fiesta visitors. This year for the first tim e since 1941, all m ajor features have been included in the program and from the burning of Zozobra (a giant 100- foot figure of the god of gloom) on Friday evening, until the last mu­ sical concert on Monday evening, hilarity and the spirit of fiesta will reign suprem e. Sunday is given over largely to appropriate religious activities. Highlights include a procession to the church of high Catholic digni­ taries, a high pontifical m ass and an evening candlelight procession in which thousands of pilgrim s bearing lighted candles wend their way through the streets, with lum inarios and pinon fires helping to light their way. Santa F e, oldest capital city in the nation, will be decked out in gala holiday attire for fiesta tim e. Gay bnnting and colorful banners will adorn city streets, and m any residents will be be­ decked in colorful old costumes rem iniscent of early Spanish and Indian days. Perched in mountainous country at an elevation of 7,000 feet, Santa Fe holds forth its cool, invigorating clim ate as an added lure for fiesta visitors. The city and the nearby area are replete with authentic his­ toric sights which beckon to m any tourists who, like the freighters of old, m ake their last stop at the ter­ m inus of the Santa F e Trail. Shakes Rugged Hoof PORT TOWNSEND, WASH.—Reg­ ular attendant at all community dances is J. C. (“Jack” ) Ryan, 90. “If I do say it m yself I’m one of the liveliest m en on the floor,” Ryan says. He had to quit work when he w as 88 after he was injured seri­ ously in a bus wreck. Minister Renounces Salary To Take Job As Railroad Laborer LANARK, ILL.—Renouncing his church salary because of a “steady decline in revenue,” the Rev. H ar­ m on H. Bro, 27, pastor of the Chris­ tian church, has taken a job as a railroad section hand to support his family. The m inister, a H arvard graduate and son of a college president, told his congregation he will continue to serve the church without salary, which w as $200 a month, including parsonage rent. He is m arried and the father of a baby daughter. His job as a railroad section hand pays 85 cents an horn: for a 48-hour week, a total of $177.66 a month. In announcing his decision to take the job, M r. Bro told his congrega­ tion: “There are too m any people in modern churches who think that the kingdom of God is just some­ thing you hire a preacher to worry about so the congregation can relax.” He explained th at “only about 30” of the church’s 100 m em bers attend services regularly. Church income, he added, has been dropping regu­ larly. F i r e L o o k o u t s W a t c h , F o r C a r e l e s s A i r m e n SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH.—Air­ plane pilots are supplanting careless m otorists as the bane of U. S. for­ est service fire-fighters, according to Supervisor F. C. Koziol of W asatch National forest. It used to be that m otorists care­ lessly flipping cigarettes from their car windows or knocking out pipe ashes were blam ed for the m ajority of m an-set forest fires. Now, Ko- ziol says, fire lookouts have been warned to keep their binoculars trained on pilots of aircraft. “It has been established in m any instances that aircraft have flown over areas im m ediately before fire has broken out,” he reports. “With no other causes discovered, there’s a distinct possibility that burping m aterial tossed from the planes caused the fires.” ' S c h o o l P r o m o t e s ‘T a p s ’ f o r F a r m e r s TULSA, OKLA.—It sounded all wet when the Chamber of Commerce listed a “Hot and Cold Running W ater School” in its calendar of coming events. But all was clear after F arm Man­ ager C. A. Border offered his ex­ planation. His idea, it appears, is to replace the “old oaken bucket” with a newfangled faucet by install­ ing w ater system s in farm homes. Figures compiled by Border show that 204,000 Oklahoma farm families have to tote their w ater in buckets from wells. M em bers of each farm fam ily which m ust resort to well w ater for its drinking supply travel a total distance of 152 m iles yearly lugging w ater, he reports. The one-day school here is de­ signed to bring state agricultural and Indian service leaders together with w ater system m anufacturers prom ote “taps” for farm ers. to C L A S S I F I E D D E P A R T M E N T BUSINESS & INVEST.

M h tttt The Russians Wouldn’t Get It We talk of those Russians being difficult to understand. But there are some things our totalitarian neighbors would never be able to understand about us. They jusl would not get it. The way we ar­ gued and fussed over the labor bill Congress just passed, for example. Then when the bill becam e law, we all settled down to see if we can abide by it. This is w hat we call m ajority rule, through the elect­ ed representatives of the people. In our kind of set-up, people are given credit for being able to think for them selves. Facts are easy to get hold of. Viewpoints m ay be freely expressed. We m ake up our m inds, and our representatives at the seat of government try to carry out our wishes. Things do not go like this in the totalitarian countries. Such questions would never be placed before the people in the first place. Regardless oi everything else, the will of the dic­ tator would prevail. Labor Shows Spirit Organized labor, in its attitude toward the Taft-Hartley Bill, has dem onstrated the m anner in which the “people’s m andate’’ is accepted in a land where laws are deter­ m ined by the will of the m ajority, but where all m inorities are respect­ ed. The bill was the m ost con­ troversial legislation to come up in years. Much feeling was developed. Lobbying was everywhere. Yet, when the labor bill became law over the President’s veto, and when the President had stated that he’d sincerely enforce it and not sabotage the law, the top leaders of labor affirmed there would be no general protest strikes. Rightly, they declared they would test it in the courts, where laws should be tested. If the legislation is in error, tim e will tell. In the true’ Amer­ ican tradition of fairness and jus­ tice, we are awaiting the proving and testing of the new law. The Way It Works Now, I would like to say that the whole nation’s economy is the direct result of this sort of thing. We m ay not like the decision of the m ajority, but we go along and m ake it work. We bank on the m ajority being right. We are willing to let the m ajority, through our elected representatives, write the laws. Economics used to be a big word. Now, nearly everybody understands it to mean the way we use our re­ sources and consume our wealth. This includes production, buying, and selling. It includes the activi­ ties of labor and of managem ent. Traditionally, in this country, we have allowed our economy to re­ m ain free of artificial barriers which would ham per its natural laws, like that of supply and de­ m and, for instance. The im portant thing is: free trad- . ing and buying and selling (that is, an economy which freely belongs to the people), works best when we have a truly representative govern­ m ent. They go hand in hand. Ty­ rants and dictators never let these things go free. A restricted econ­ omy and a non-representative gov­ ernm ent, you'll find, are always part and parcel of the totalitarian method. This method never pays high wages. In America we have a great land.

Rev. Walter E. Iaenhour. Hiddenite. N. C “The effectual fervent prayer oi a righteous man aveUeth much. Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are. and be praved eumestly that it might not rain and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And be prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.”— Jimes 5:16 t8. It means much to live close en ough to God. and pray so earnest. Iy. until our prayers are answered This is God’s will and plan for our lives Our text speaks of Elijah, a man who was mighlv in prayer. He lived in a very wicked age ot the world, yet he lived iu touch with God He would not yield to the wickedness of the times, therefore kept in a spirit of prayer. He had wonderful, blessed, sweet comma nion with God. Elijah lived in tbe days of King Abab, who was one of the most wicked, ungodly kings that ever sat upon a throne. Naturally the nation over which he ruled like, wise became very wicked. Rulers of nations have a powerful influ ence over the people, either for good or evil. Ahab’s influence was for evil, and how great was that evil: Of course Elijah stood against the sins and wickedness of Ahab, along with the wickedness of Jeze- bel. Ahab’s ungodly, murderous wife. Seeing their wickedness of the nation, Elijah prayed earnest- Iy that it might not rain. "And Elijah and Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said un­ to Ahab. As the Lord God of Is rael liveth, befote whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.” (I Kings 17:1. Then a drouth of three and one half years followed, during which time God took care of Blijah in a marvel. ous way. Part of the time he was fed twice a day by the ravens, alter which be was fed by a poor widow at Zarephath, whose food God like­ wise miraculously provided. Praise tbe Lord Then Elijah met Ahab, who had searched for him, perhaps with the intention of punishing him. or pit­ ting him to death because of the drouth, as he blamed Elijah with ir. "And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Abab said unto him. Art thou be that troubleth Isreal? And he answered. I have not troubled ItoeI; but thou, and thy father’s hou.se, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of tbe Lord, and thou hast followed Balim,” (I Kings 18:17,18). You will notice that Ahab want- a so lives that God will answer his prayers, even if He has to punish a nation tor its wickedness, or de­ throne a king, or a ruler God al­ ways does tbe right thing when He answers the prayers ot a right­ eous man, even if He basto punish men for their wickedness. It is dangerous for a man to live so wickedly that God’s people have to pray against him rather than for him. That happens. After this old Elijah had a great mass meeting with Ahab and the prophets oi Baa! on mount Carmel where they held a praver meeting. Elijah gave the prophets of Baal the first A m in testing their gods, or trving them out. TheGod Ol [OllSl IlIfl Wttltll pnjftl Of on was to be the God of gods. When the prophets of Baal had prayed and prayed unto their gods, even cutting their flesh in order to arouse their gods to action, they received no anser Then Elijah prayed this simple find short pray, er: "Hear me, O Lord, hear me, that this people may know that thou hast turned their hack|again.” (I Kings i8 ;37). The following verses tell us: “Then the fire of the Lord fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice* and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench, And when all the people saw it. they fell on their faces: and thev said. The Lord he is God; the Lord, he is God. And Elijah said unto them: Take tbe prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and siew them there.” After the slaying of the prophets of Baal, Elijah started praying for rain It seems that It was harder to pray through to end the drouth than it was to pray the drouth on; as Elijah put his face between his knees and prayed seven times. At last he sent his servant seven times to look toward the sea before be saw any sign of rain. No doubt each time that his servant returned and told Elijah there was no sign of rain he* prayed ag2in. This shows us the vital importance of perseverence in prayer—holding on and on until we receive whatever we are praving for, when we real ize that wa are praying In God's will. It is not always easy to pray throvgh. Sometimes we have to hold on for hours, davs, weeks, months and even years before we get an answer from God. He knows best. Usually the Lord doesn’t withhold His answer for years, but we have heard of it. In fact one of our readers wrote us that she prayed fo. her husband to he sav. ed (or fifteen years, if we remem- her correctly, before he was saved. Praise the Lord, It paid her, how. ever, to keep praying, Oue reas on lots of people fail to get an an- sweo In their prayers they quit too soon, Elijak kept on praving for rain until it came Suppose he had prayed six times and then quit, what might have been the out­ come? Maybe the drouth would have continued on and on, and A hab and Jezebel, and the unbeliev­ ers in God, would have said that God failed old Elijah after all Thank God for mighty men ot praye . Uur text savs, “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” In that particu. lar, the word “fervent” means “warm in feeling, ardent, earnest, arderous, zealous.” It is always earnest pravers that go through, However, we realize that it' is not always God’s will to give us what we ask for. He knows best. Sup pose we are praying for a loved one to be spared, but it is not God’s will to spare the life. Theu we should he submissive, without a spirit of rebellion, or unbelief, or complaint, or questioning God’s goodness, mercy and Iove^ We should calmly, tenderlv. lovingly, prayerfully, sweetly say. “Thy will be done.” and go right on praying, obeying, serving and wor shipping God Here is something that is very encouraging in our text: “Elias (oi Elijah) was a man subject to like passious as we are, and he prayed earnestly (mark you, earn, estlv), that it might not rain: and h rained not . . . and he prayed , and,the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit,” 11 prayet! Yet he was just human, every “subject to like passions as we News. are." But we should not overlook the fact that he was godly, He obeyed God, walked and talked to God. loved and served God. No doubt many people want to get their pracers through to God, but in the meantime they are disohev- ing His commandments. They love the world, therefore ran with tbe crowds that seek worldly pleasures. They indulge in bad habits, ques­ tionable habits, inturious habits. Thev neglect reading and studying the blessed old Bible Oftentimes thev are careless about their lan­ guage, their influence, and tbe company thev keep, Manv run with eAtl, wirked people, rather than keep the company of the god­ ly, the praverfnl and tho holy. They rob God of their time, their talents and their means. They wouldn’t give God the renth of their income under any circnntstan ces. yet they expect God to send them the suushice and the rain, and give them health and strength to work, to make olt-uty of monev, and to have plenty to eat and wear, and everything they need and want In a material way. However, they are too stingy to honor' God with tbcir means, and certainly rob Him of their precieas time, and wield an influence that is against Chris tianity rather than tot it, and yet exuect God to answer their pray­ ers, especially when they get in trouble. It is a mighty good thing to iive for God wheu everything goes well then when the shadows creep over, and the sun tails to shine, and tests, and trials come and misfortunes pile up like mountains we can go to God in prayer, and for needed help, and He never fails us. Hallelnjah! In concluding this massage we wish to say that many of our read­ ers have written in for praver. One man asks us to pray ror him, and wants our praving rsaders to re member him in prayer. He has some problems knows must Le solved through praver. Don’t for. get to pray for him. To show bis sincerity, and bis faith iu our pray ers, and in God, he sent an offer- ing of ten dollars to help us in our work for the Master. Others want praver for drunken husbands, for unsaved loved ones, and for home troubles 0, let’s pray! Let’s pray rerventiy, taking as a promise from Jesus, Matthew, 18:19 Yours in Jeeus. I h i n g s I o l h i n k A b o u t Lay not up for yourselves trea­ sures upon Earth where moth and rust doth corrupt and where theives break through and steal, b u t lay u p fo r yourselves trea surers in heaven where neither motli nor rust doth corrupt, and w here thieves d o n o t break through nor steal. Let not sin therefore reign m your mortal body that ye should obey it in the lust’s there of; but God commendeath his love to ward us in that while we weave wet sinnors Christ died for us. There is therefore now no cond- nation to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but the spirit of life for the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. If it be possible as much lieth in you, live peace­ able with all men. S. T. FOSTER, MocksviUe, N. C., R. 4.

It is the “Little Below the Knee Club.” Itboasts 1,300 members now and is determed to hold the hemiline in that part of the coun­ try if it takes all Winter. “I don’t feel like throwing a- way my entire wardrobe and I thought a lot of other women might feel the same way,” asserts Mrs. Walter J. Woodward, found­ er of the movement. “This Win­ ter we’re going to wear the cloth­ es that look best on us—th&tyles we have right now. Whv should a girl cover up her legs—they may be her best selling point.” We are not the only man who agrees with her. Herman Fhillip- son, a 59 year old Dallas shop op­ erator was the speaker at a L.B. K. C. meeting. “I just came out here to tell you ladies that I think you are right,” he declared. “I think the designers and dress in­ dustry are trying to get away with murder. The new styles render even your coats obsolete and with half the world begging for materi­ al to cover its naken backs; I can’t see that there’s any justification for these new drastic fashions.” Our reasons are not quite so profound nor are they economic. We just like to see women look right. We do not plug for hem lines which reveal the occasional knobby knee but nothing looks dowdier to many a male ever than an over-long skirt.

C. 94 637784 5 New Product Keeps Potato Sproutless Problem of Storage Now Aided by New Methods The sprouting, shriveling and sog­ giness of potatoes when kept at room tem peratures now can be pre­ vented with use of barsprout. The treated potatoes rem ain firm, prac­ tically farm -fresh, and not only cook but also taste better. The product is equally effective on cer­ tain other root crops such as beets, carrots, turnips and rutabagas. The active ingredient is m ethyl ester of naphthaleneacetic acid. When applied to the potatoes as a dust, it vaporizes and literally “gets into their eyes,” keeping them from sprouting. Feeding tests Potatoes at right treated with barsprout, left, untreated pota­ toes, both held under the sam e conditions. have shown that the chemical im­ parts no harm ful effect. Tests have been conducted for the past five years at leading agricultural exper­ im ent stations. By this treatm ent the potatoes m ay be kept at ordinary room tem ­ peratures without sprouting and without form ation of reducing sugar. Ordinarily potatoes are held below 45 degrees and shrink 5 per cent in weight, developing reducing sugars which affect color and taste.

It had been considered an unwritten law since George W ashington’s tim e (he refused to enter Rhode Island until it was adm itted to the Union) that a president while in office couldn’t leave the country. When Woodrow Wilson went to P aris and Vice P res­ ident Thomas M arshall had to pre­ side at cabinet m eetings, the vice president m ade it clear he was of­ ficiating only a t the request of Signal Corps Photo President Trum an receives tele­ type m essage aboard the presi­ dential radio car. Standing by the President are 1st Lt. Clinton G. Conover (left), m aintenance of­ ficer of the arm y security agency, and 1st Lt. H arvard E . Dudley, cryptographic officer, White House signal detachm ent. Wilson and th at he didn’t consider Wilson’s leaving the country vacat­ ed the presidency. Travel has become a presi­ dent m ust, and M r. Trum an’s trip to South Am erica is just routine. But it is com plicated routine for a whole arm y of people. W hat these people do is little known to the public, especially the secret service. One out of every 10 of our presidents has been assassi­ nated up to the tim e congress turned the job of protecting the chief executive over to the secret Service. Sinee then no president has been assassinated. Theirs (the secret service) is a heartbreaking job, and never have the details been so thoroughly re­ vealed (to the discomfiture of some of his form er colleagues) as by Mike ReiUy in the book I m en­ tioned. Of course in w artim e the job was vastly m ore compUcated, and the arm y and navy worked closely with the secret service. A special air raid alert system was designed, Reilly says “to protect FDE any­ where in the United States.” When a spotter or w atcher, either civilian or mUitary, spot­ ted an airplane he or she was unable to identify “ any place from Greenland to the Straits of M agellan,” the information w as radioed im m ediately to the arm y air force headquarters at MitcheU Field, N. I . The information was im m ediately evaluated and conveyed by radio and land line to the secret service communication system where men were standing a 24 hour watch. This system tied together MitcheU Field, Bolling Field, the homes, offices and automobiles of various secret serv­ ice agents, field offices throughout the country, aU secret service mo­ bile units, the President’s train, Shangri-La, and the President’s room at Hyde Park. PresideiU K ept Inform ed Constantly But keeping the President alive is only one activity. Keeping him in touch with his job is another. Once when a bullying congress dem anded of President G rant which if any of his duties he perform ed in W ashington, he repUed that his busi­ ness and where he did it w as his own affair. Now a president’s out- of-town business is a lot of people’s affairs. In w artim e this signal corps de­ tail had the mission of speeding the President’s top-secret communica­ tions “from the highest level -con­ ference tables to instaUations in the field.” "Today,” as M ajor McNaUy puts it, “w herever the President travels, the White House signal detachm ent continues its task of weaving deftly an intricate com­ m unications net, which enables the commander-in-chief (and, he m ight have added, a travel­ ing candidate) to keep himself constantly inform ed and in touch with the nation.” The work of weaving this "com ­ munications net” is an exciting sto­ ry too long to recount here, but let m e quote M ajor McNaUy brief­ ly to show how continuous commu­ nication was m aintained when P res­ ident Roosevelt m ade one of his fre­ quent trips to Hyde Park. “A 50-watt frequency modulation station was modified and instaUed on the secret service car attached to the presidential train. Army ve­ hicles, radio equipped, were spot­ ted at strategicaUy plotted points along the route between Washing­ ton and Poughkeepsie, so that the train was in constant touch with the White House aU the way. An­ other FM radio link was installed in the old stable on the President’s estate at Hyde Park. By m eans of a direct telephone line to Washing­ ton and frequency modulation ra­ dio, the White House was kept in­ form ed of the President’s where­ abouts at all tim es.” The speed with which m essages could be dispatched and answers re­ ceived was astounding. When Win­ ston Churchill was m aking his sec­ ond visit to Hyde Park, he and the President who w ere keen competi­ tors. as weU as close coUaborators decided to m ake a speed test on the communications facilities. Each sent identical m essages to Australia over the respective British and United States faciUties. The Presi­ dent had an answer in less than two hours; the Prim e M inister got his the next day. & ; SET FOR NEW SPEED RECORD . . . After two years of prepara­ tions, John R. Cobb of England was prepared for an attem pt to drive his RaiIton MobU Special to a new land speed record. Cobb’s ear is powered with two airplane engines. N E W S R E V I E W H i n t A m e r i c a n A i d P l a n ; T r u m a n A c t s f o r D P ’ s THE AMERICAS; A id P r o m is e d "We must reject an encroachment upon the fundamental rights of the state. I am confident that we all agree that the state exists for man, not man for the state— aitd that we abhor any limitation upon the freedom of expression of men through- out the world.” Thus, in his first address before the inter-Am erican conference at Petropolis, BrazU, U. S. Secretary of State George MarshaU issued a reaffirm ation of dem ocratic princi­ ples in the western hem isphere and then bulwarked his expression of idealism with specific assurances of U. S. economic aid to L atin Amer­ ica. He told the delegates that the U. S. governm ent “wUl continue to take up economic questions with its sister repubUcs and seek a sound basis for practical cooperation.” M arshall a t Rio . . the state exists for man . . ." That was interpreted as m eaning that the U. S. is willing to help solve Latin A m erica’s economic problems through a series of bi-lateral pacts. There was also a hint that the big northern neighbor is counting on sending down its capital. DP SHUFFLE: T r u m a n A c ts President H arry Trum an, in a re­ newed effort to alleviate the “tragic plight” of Europe’s displaced per­ sons, ordered a three-way shift in the top com mand of the U. S. im­ m igration and naturalization serv­ ice. In addition, it was disclosed that adm inistration officials in Washing­ ton have resum ed their review of the problem of displaced persons. Most im portant personnel shift in­ volved the transfer of Ugo Carusi from his post as commissioner of im m igration to a position in the state departm ent where he will sur­ vey all “critical” problems relating to displaced persons, particularly their resettlem ent. This is expected to result in add­ ed stress being placed on a directive Mr. Trum an issued in December, 1945, calling for coordinated action by federal officials to adm it as m any displaced persons as possible within quota lim itations. Watson B. MiUer, federal security adm inistrator, succeeds Carusi as commissioner of im m igration, and O scar Ross Ewing, New York law­ yer, replaces Miller. President Trum an’s action was taken in the face of congress’ re­ fusal to act on his proposal to relax im m igraton quotas.

CRYSTAL BALL; Next President G eneral Douglas M acArthur will be the next president of the United States. That, at least, is the occult pre­ diction of a 75-year-old Japanese for­ tune teller, Kakudo Tomioka, who eulogized: “M acArthur has a glo­ rious future in store for him .” Tomioka, who is said, to have a record of several accurate predic­ tions, placed the general on a plane with Mohandas Ghandi in the field of social welfare. “There presently are two living m en who have succeeded in realiz­ ing a peaceful revolution,” he said. “They are M acArthur and Ghandi. But, then, Ghapdi’s mission is over. And M acArthur has his m ost glori­ ous task to accomplish for the world in the future.” It was not im m ediately known whether M acArthur would use To- m ioka’s recom m endation as a plank in his platform if he runs in 1948. SURPLUS: B u d g e t R e v ie tv President Trum an’s budget busi­ ness m ade big news again when the chief executive (I) forecast a rec­ ord treasury surplus next June of nearly five billion dollars, and (2) hurt Republican feelings by telling the nation that congress trim m ed the 1947 budget estim ates by only 1.5 billion dollars. His m id-year budget review esti­ m ated tax receiots this year at $41,667,000,000, which is 2.1 billion dollars m ore than any previous forecast. Mr. Trum an m ade his announce­ m ent coincidentally with a bureau of labor report which indicated that the U. S., far from being in for a business depression, can look forward to a period of prosperity continuing “indefinitely.” CAUTIO N TO TH E WINDS S h a r p R i s e i n B u y i n g N o t e d Swinging sharply away from its previous cautious attitude of econ­ omy T m inded discrim ination, the U. S. buying public has launched itself on a relatively liberal pur­ chasing spree. Virtually all fields of trade have reported a clear-cut trend away from passive waiting for lower prices, and purchases are increas­ ing all over the country. The change has given rise to a certain am ount of alarm over the possibilities of a new inflation spiral which m ay develop as a result of indiscrim inate buying. It has be­ come the subject of m uch discus­ sion among business leaders, bank­ ers and economists, some of whom express concern that the movem ent m ight acquire runaway proportions. “We are watching developments from day to day,” said a govern­ m ent economist, “hoping that it will taper off before it becomes a violent spiral that can end only In a senous reversal.” It is generally agreed that the m ovem ent began with the renewed wave of price increases that fol­ lowed the boost in coal prices and mine wages. It has gained momen­ tum ever since. Consumers apparently have given up hope that any m aterial reduc­ tion in prices will occur within the reasonable, future and are going ahead to purchase m erchandise which they long have needed. Many m erchants who curtailed their in­ ventories a year ago are placing orders to replenish their stocks. As a result of the widespread buying trend, previous opinions that industry and business were in for at least slight setbacks in the la s t half of this year are being revised. Cur­ rent forecasts are optim istic con­ cerning high levels of business ac­ tivity during the third and fourth quarters. Belief now is that prices generally will move upward, or at least hold their present heights, until well into next year. Cash rem ains abundant, and the influx of large am ounts of money from veterans’ term inal leave bonds and state bonuses will be added contributing factors to the inflationary trend.

TlOWOI F m M HI I H IHfl Julia M cFarlane, whose husband, Rich­ ard, disappeared in World War I, leav­ ing her to raise two children, Rfc and JiU, is startled when 25 years later, during the second war, he returns and tells her be is using the nam e of Captain Mackey. Ric m arries Sandra Calvert, a divorcee whom Richard knew to he of bad reputation. She arrives a t the farm t* Uve and recognizes a picture of Rich­ ard as that of Mackey. She and Jill quarrel and she demands $10,000. That night Captain Mackey arrives, telling Jill, who does not know who he is, that he is taking Sandra to Ric. He tells JHl about the daughter be lost and she tells him about her father. Sandra refuses to leave with him. CHAPTER XX “All right," she snapped, harshly, "w hat’s the payoff? There is one, I suppose? You didn’t come here out of the goodness of your heart, Rod M ackey!” He looked at Jill and sm iled otie- sidedly. “She doesn’t trust m e!” he draw led. “She thinks there’s a catch in it.” “ Maybe she has had some disil­ lusioning experiences,” Jill said. “It could be that she hasn’t always known the right sort of people.” “Never mind the kind of people I ’ve known!” Sandra cried, hoarse­ ly. “At least no tricky heel has ever fooled m e yet. Ju st tell m e the gag, that’s all. I hate blunder­ ing into things. I suppose the Ges­ tapo has been abroad, and right now is the dram atic m om ent to pro­ duce the fatal papers? If you’d only given m e one m ore day, Rod » M ackey! One m ore day, and a very elaborate m ilitary reputation m ight have gone crashing down in some very dirty ruins! But you knew I wouldn’t have had tim e to prove anything, didn’t you? You worked fast!” "W hat on earth is she talking about?” Jill dem anded of the cap­ tain, her eyes bewildered. “She’s displeased with m e, Jill,” he said, blandly. “I happen to know a few facts fibout a divorce our Sandra once got in a little sm elly town called Piedras N egras, in Mexico. Back in 1927, I think, w asn’t it, Sandra? Or w as it ’29? She bought the divorce cheap, the w ay you buy things in Mexico, cheap stuff you wouldn’t look at in this country, and she didn’t look too carefully at the divorce. And of course after she m arried Lieutenant Colonel Calvert, and then collected considerable alimony from him , and now that she’s m arried into the Mc- F arlane family, she’d like to forget the divorce and never hear anything about it again.” “You m ean—the divorce wasn’t any good?” Jill asked. “But if it w asn’t—” “He doesn’t know a thing about It!” snapped Sandra. “He’s bluff­ ing. Trying to force m e to do what he wants m e to do.” “Unfortunately for you, m y dear girl. I’m not bluffing. I have, to quote you, the fatal papers. Now, if you don’t mind, I’d like to get start­ ed. I’m still in the arm y, I’m still under command. And it’s getting late.” “All right, I ’ll go,” she said, “but not with you. You can take m e as far as a bus station. Well, you can relax now, Jill. I’m taking m y ob­ noxious person out of your house. You won’t be degraded any more. You—you poor, blind little fool!” She whirled away and went pounding up the stairs. Jill sat down abruptly. She was feeling weak and queer as though she had just watched something die. "I—wish you’d stay until Mother gets here,” she said, faintly. “She’ll be disappointed at not seeing you. And—is it true about Sandra’s di­ vorce? That it w asn’t legal or som ething?” “H er nam e happens not to be Sandra,” the Captain said. “Her nam e w as H attie Schoeffle when she was m arried to a boy nam ed Bor- dine, in Kearney, N ebraska. Then she tired of him and got into bur­ lesque, and after that into vaude­ ville, and a few years ago she showed up in San Antonio and at­ tracted a young M ajor Calvert, who wanted to m arry her. So she got this quick divorce in Mexico and didn’t bother to discover that the official who signed it hadn’t taken his oath of office yet, or rem em ber th at she’d been m arried as H attie Schoeffle, and divorced as Sandra Laverne—m ere legal details but quite im portant.” “ I’m glad,” Jill said. “It’s a nasty thing to say, but I’m glad.” “Will you give your m other a m essage from m e, Jill?” “Of course. But they should be here any m inute.” “A soldier’s tim e is not his own, you know. But you can tell your m other not to worry about Rich­ ard. I think he’ll come through this business all right. I think he has good stuff in him, in fact I’m sure of it. He’s his m other’s son." An Old Beau Came to Call “I’ll tell her. But what shall I tell Mother about you?” He smiled, slowly, and that sam e look of far places, of things long re­ m em bered, of bewildered loss cam e again into his eyes. He reached for Jill’s hand and held it. “Just tell her that an old beau cam e to call,” he said, striving for lightness. “One of her dangling adorers—she used to collect them the way a honeysuckle gathers bees. Just rem em ber that, Jill, if she gets tough on you. You tell her that one of her last lovers came— in fact I believe I was the last.” “Before m y father, of course. I’ll tell her, Captain Mackey. I’ll tell her that her Ihst lover cam e to call. And I do thank you for concerning vourself with our fam ily problems. I know that m y m other would like to thank you, too.” “Ju st give m e a kind thought now and then, will you, Jill? I’ll need it, where Fm going.” He heard Sandra’s feet on the stairs and bent down quickly and kissed Jill on the cheek. “That’s for m y own daugh­ ter,” he said, huskily. JiU stretched herself quickly on tiptoe and drew his head down and kissed him on the mouth. “And that,” she whispered, “is for m y father! Good-by, Captain M ackey.” Sandra cam e, dragging her bag down, looking sm all and somehow 2 £ s “And that”—she whispered, “ is for m y father.” frightened. She said, “Well, good- by, Jill. I suppose this m akes you very happy indeed.” “No.” JiU shook her head. “No. It doesn’t. It m akes m e a little sick, Sandra, if you want the truth. I don’t Uke you very much, but I hate having it end this way. Good luck, anyway. And good-by again, Captain M ackey.” “I m ay w rite to you soon—I may have something to teU you,” Sandra said grimly. Captain Mackey picked up her bag and took her arm brusquely and hurried her out. At the door he turned and looked back at Jill, a long look. Then he flicked a little salute — the sam e gesture that Spang made—and went out. JiU sat limp and shaken when the car had roared off down the drive. She wondered what would happen to Sandra now. But women like Sandra always got along. They knew their way about. She stopped bothering about Sandra then, for Dave’s cari had turned in at the gate, and ’she heard voices—two m en’s voices—it couldn’t be— She flew to the door and across the porch. They were getting out of the car, and Dave grinned at her and said, “H ere’s a dirty looking tram p we found downtown, Jill. He was asking the police how to get out to Buzzard’s HiU, so we just brought him along. E ver seen him before?” Reunion With Spang Gordon Jill gave a choking little cry and flung herself at the tall figure in the greasy-flying jacket. “Spang!” He caught her and held her tight. He kissed her gravely on the mouth. “Pure dumb luck!” he said. Just a routine flight—m y naviga­ tor had to get some more hours in the air, and right over this town the doggone oil line busted! Glad to see m e, Jill?" “Oh, Spang!” She shivered hap­ pily.' “You did come back!” ‘How about turning the m an loose so he can wash his face?” Dave teased. “You’ve got grease on your chin and your nose, too, Jill.” ‘I know Spang m ust be tired and hungry," Julia said. “I’ll see what can be found in the kitchen. Get some clean towels, Jill.” Jill led Spabg upstairs to the bathroom . ; .“Sorry I’m such a m ess,” he said, pulling off the oil-soaked flight jacket, “but I worked an hour on that line before I gave up and de­ cided we had to wire for some spare parts—lucky they had that little landing field out there, wasn’t it?” ‘Awfully lucky you\didn’t have som e spare parts along,' too, wasn’t it. Spang? Or you’d have had to fix whatever it was and go on.” ‘Be noon tomorrow or m aybe lat­ er before we can finish repairs. De­ pends on how fast they get the stuff to us. So I divided the gang up as watches for the plane, and the rest of us struck out for town, and just as I was asking that sleepy cop down there on the m ain corner where a place called Buzzard’s Hill was, there were your m other and Mr. Patterson pulling out of a park­ ing spot, and the cop took m e over to the car. Talk about m y lucky star! Here I am !” "And we have twelve hours, any way,” Jill said happily. “ Come down when you’re ready, Spang.Mother’s getting something lor you to eat.” They sat around the kitchen ta­ ble while Spang devoured scram bled eggs and warmed-over biscuit. “If the C.O. could see m e now,” he said, “he’d sw ear I sm ashed that oil line on purpose! He’d give m e a long lecture and rem ind m e of those fellows on the other side who bring the big babies in on two engines and one of those on fire, and all that stuff.” “ You didn’t have the English Channel under you,” Dave said. “Oh, I’d put up the routine argu­ ment. I was trying to save an ex­ pensive plane and an expensively trained crew for the air corps. They concede that you’re right, usually, but they have to get you on the de­ fensive first, just to see if you’ve got the spirit to defend your deci­ sions, probably. Is there one more drop of coffee in that pot, M rs. Mc- Farlane?” “I’ll squeeze the handle hard,” Julia sm iled at him. Then she looked unhappily at Jill. “We’re frightfully rude,” she said. “JiU, we should have asked Sandra to come down.” “Sandra?” Spang repeated sharp­ ly. “Sandra Calvert? She’s here?” “She was m arried to Richard,” Julia said. “She cam e today, or I guess it’s yesterday now. Ric was shipped off som ewhere and he sent her home to us.” Spang w as looking at Jill with a troubled face, but Jill had jum ped up and stood frozen with consterna­ tion. “Dooley!” she cried. “I w as so excited over seeing Spang that I forgot to tell you! Sandra’s gone!" “ Gone?” Julia repeated incredu­ lously. “Jill, you w eren’t—you didn’t—” "I didn’t do anything,” Jill insist­ ed. “She got rather nasty after you left, and we exchanged a few acid rem arks, but nothing was se­ rious. Then suddenly this officer cam e for her. He is a captain at Ridley Field, Dooley, and it seems he knew Sandra in Hawaii and other places. I m et him when I went down there. He said he used to know you, Dooley. His nam e was Captain Roger M ackey.” Julia gripped the edge of the ta­ ble. She would not let her legs crum ple under her, she would not let herself cry out. Spang said, “Old Cyanide! So he cam e here, did he?” “You know him, do you?” Dave asked, moving arOund the table to draw the younger eyes away from Julia while she got hold of herself. “Yes, sir, he was a personnel of­ ficer at the field. Not very popular with the men, when I was there.” “He said at first he was going to take Sandra to Ric,” Jill explained, “and then when she refused to go, he sprang some Mexican divorce she’d had on her—it seem s Ric was her third husband, Dooley—and this Captain Mackey said he was quite sure the M exican divorce w asn’t legal and that she wasn’t m arried to Ric at all. She was pretty bad­ ly frightened, I could see. She tried to keep Captain Mackey quiet with some vague threats or others but he m ade her go. I’m so sorry you weren’t here, Dooley. He said he was an old beau of yours.” She said anxiously, “Aren’t you pleased, Dooley? I thought you’d be relieved to find she wasn’t here any m ore.” “ Yes, I’m pleased,”- she said, faintly, “but I’m sorry Sandra went away when I was not here at least to say good-by.” “Odd that Mackey concerned him self about R ic,” Spang said. “May be, of course, that he was somehow involved with the Calveri woman.” Dooletf Receives A Message “Oh, no!” Jill protested quickly. “He isn’t that sort of person, Spang. Not that sort at all. And Sandra hated him. She told me so. She didn’t really want to go with him. I got the feeling that she was some­ how scared. I think he knew more about her than he told me. He left a m essage for you, Dooley. He said to tell you that you weren’t to worry about Ric, that Ric was going to be all right. He talked about his daughter that he lost, and I told him about m y father, and then he said I was to tell you that your ‘last lover’ cam e, Dooley. He said he was quite sure he was the la s t- before m y father, of course. Doo­ ley, you look funny. Don’t you feel well?” “Too m any things have happened to Dooley all at once,” Dave saidj, patting her shoulder. (TO BE CONTINUEDJ UNDER FLOODLIGHTS . . . For 74 years, Seven F alls and South Cheyenne Canyon have been among the m ajor scenic attractions in the Pikes Peak region of Colorado. Visitors now can view the famous falls at night, under electric lights. The w aterfall, shown above, is lighted by 28 large floodlights with alternating white and color effects. IN THESE UNITED STATES F l o o d l i g h t s N o w C a s t B e a m O n S c e n ic F a l l s a n d C a n y o n W N V Features. COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO.—Embracing “the grandest mile of scenery in Colorado,” majestic Seven Falls and pictur­ esque South Cheyenne Canyon have intrigued visitors to the Pikes Peak region for the past 74 years. Their beauties, however, have been shrouded when nightfall descended but now, through com­ pletion of an electrical engineering feat, this m ajor scenic attrac­ tion of the Rockies can be viewed under electric lights. The project, which m akes this ‘ Colorado beauty spot the only com­ pletely lighted canyon and w aterfall in the world, required the use of 80 huge floodlights and m ore than 1,000 sm all spotlights. More than two m iles of heavy copper rubber insu­ lated cable was installed under­ ground. The w aterfall, which has seven separate falls im its 266 foot descent, is lighted by 28 large floodlights with alternating white and color ef­ fects. The crystal clear trout pool at the foot of the falls is lighted by eight underw ater lights, reveal­ ing the rainbow trout gliding about in its depths. The m agnificent w eather beat­ en pink granite walls of the canyon, which rise to a height of m ore than 2,000 feet, present countless shadow effects as the lights play upon them . Various rock form ations, such as the “ Setting Turkey,” Devil’s Slide” and “W restling B ears,” are spotlighted by 500 to 1,500 w att lights. M ajestic pine trees on the banks of the splashing m ountain stream aTe bathed in various colored flood lights, while others are sprinkled with colored lights. Standing as a sen­ tinel at the entrance of the canyon are the fam iliar “Pillars of Her­ cules.” It is at this point that the huge $10,000 anti-aircraft carbon arc light has been installed. The big light has eight million candle- power and shoots an effective beam five m iles in the air. The Lone­ some Pine, Eagles Cliff and other features of interest are caught in its bright path. It also will be used to sweep the sky to indicate that Sev­ en Falls is now under lights. As a final touch, a 90 w att sound amplifier system has been installed to play soft music. Al G. Hill, Dallas, Tex., oil m an, who purchased the 1,400 acre scenic attraction June I, 1946, im m ediate­ ly began a program of improve­ m ents which have taken m ore than a year to complete and ‘have cost approxim ately $100,000. In addition to the lighting project, a stairw ay of 250 steps has been erected to a spectators’ platform on the south wall of the canyon from which point all Seven Falls can be seen at one tim e. P art of a m ountain slope was removed by bulldozers to provide parking space for cars, and a grace­ ful arch has been erected over the roadway at the mouth of the canyon. The canyon, approxim ately one m ile in length is a “ box” or dead end type. Before the com­ ing of the white m an, the Indi­ ans stam peded herds of buffalo from the plains into the canyon w here they then were killed as food was needed. The canyon also served as a strategic re­ treat from which the Indians fought off their enem ies. At the top of the falls lies a pic­ turesque valley with m any sm all w aterfalls and shady rocks. A short hike takes the visitor to Dispiration Point, which is 1,500 feet above the floor of the canyon. From this point, a breathtaking panoram a of m ighty cliffs and distant plains is seen. The beauty of Inspiration Point inspired Helen Hunt Jackson to w rite some of her m ost fam ous books and poem s; and, on her death in 1885, her last request w as that she be buried there. ...... M u le P o s tm a n ~ L o s e s C o n tr a c t I n R e m o t e A r e a PORTLAND, ORE.—The lonely existence of the scattered fam ilies living in the rem ote fastness of Siskiyou national forest no longer will be relieved by periodic visits from the m ule-driving postman. The mule-pack postal route be­ tween the isolated towns of Illahe and M arial, near G rants Pass, has been term inated by the government because the carrier, who has a monopoly on m ules, subm itted too high a bid. The action leaves only one route served the year around by m ules although 12 others are served by m ule and horse dur­ ing the storm y winter months. Residents of the rem ote m ountain areas served by the m ule routes do their shopping through the m ail or­ der catalogues and depend upon m ule packs for everything—cloth­ ing, accordions, rifles, even food, according to Fred H. Twohy, rail­ road m ail district superintendent who has spent 10 years traveling the m ountain regions to check on his mule postmen. “One winter not even a horse could get through the heavy snows,” Twohy recalls. “The residents were shut off from the world, and there was quite a squawk.” Obliging postm en resorted to sleds to reach the isolated areas, Twohy adds, “ and the first thing the people ordered by parcel post was several cases of beer.” The M arial route was typical of the involved carrier setup required to get m ail to secluded areas. Mail went 34 m iles up a river in a flat- bottomed river boat from Wedder- bum . Then it was transferred to m ule for an additional 16-mile trip. It was “kind of expensive,” Two­ hy adm its, costing about $400 a per-, son to keep the route open. “The stam ps don’t begin to pay for it,” he adds. “I have a hard time convincing them back in Washington that these routes are worth the expense,” Two­ hy says. Bombing Proves of Peacetime Use HELENA, MONT. — Bombing techniques which wreaked havoc on enem y cities and m ilitary installa­ tions during the w ar also have proved effective in saving valuable tim berlands of the northwest through control of forest fires from the air involving spraying w ater from planes. In a special test, conducted joint­ ly by the forest ® rvice-and arm y air forces, a B-29 and two P-47s suc­ cessfully dropped ' seven w ater j bombs on a fire deliberately set 1 near Lolo Hot Springs in Lolo na­ tional forest. After the w ater bombs had been dropped with accuracy near one set blaze, splashing w ater over the burning area and practically bring­ ing the fire under control, two forest service jum pers parachuted out of a forest service plane to do the mop-up work. Their tools and a hot lunch also w ere dropped from the plane. Questions About Your Government Answered Facts About The U.

High Point.—Elliott Wood, pre­ sident and general manager of the Heritage Furniture Company here, has announced the company will transfer its local table manufac­ turing operations to a new plant in Mocksville, which will employ 200 persons. “We have been unable to find a suitable location for a new table plant here and were forced to transfer our operations to take care of the company’s expansion program.” he said. Heritage will continue to maintain its large up holstery manufacturing operations and executive offices here, Mr. Wood added. The new plant in Mocksvdle has a floor space of 60,000 equare feet and has enough land for fu­ ture expansion and recreation fa­ cilities, he said. The 75 workers in the plant, located on English Street, are be ing urged to continue with the company, Wood said, and all com­ pany benefits including insurance and bonuses will be carried over. A compensation plan to cover travel expenses to aud from the plant in Mocksville until perman­ ent housing can be found is being arranged by the company’s person­ nel department, Wood said. The facilities at the table plant here do not provide for railroad sidings, lumber yards and dry kilns which are necessary for the company’s expansion program,Mr. Wood said. ^ — ... — — T e a c h e r s 9 ’M e e t in g A e r i a l C ir c u s A t j M o c k s v il l e An aerial circus which will in­ clude at least 10 acts with nation­ ally known pilots and stunt men performing will be given Sntiday afternoon, Sept. 14tn, at 2 o’clock at the Mocksville airport under the sponsorship of the Mocksville fiving club.

A t o m - B o r n C i t y U n d e r g o e s B o o m Taxes, Crime No Worry for Workers Who Plan to Build Great City. RICHLAND, WASH.—Looking for. w ard to its first postwar expansion boom, the town that the atom built expects to retain m uch of the in­ dividuality that m akes it the unique “ village” of the Pacific Northwest. General Electric company an­ nounced an expansion in the pluto­ nium-producing Hanford Engineer works, as well as plans for additions to this war-born community. Richland is home to m ost of the workers who produce the elem ent which was vital for the bombs that hit Nagasaki and Hiroshima two years ago. Richland shares a common prob­ lem with other newly grown indus­ trial communities in its need for m ore homes and hospital facilities. Claims to Distinction. These are some of this four-year- old atom ic city’s claim s to distinc­ tion: It never has had a death in the potentially dangerous industrial plants in which the populace works, nor has there been any recorded in­ jury from radioactivity. It claim s the nation’s highest birth rate (despite the once ugly rum ors ' of radioactive elem ents m ight have on fam ily life). There is no juvenile delinquency problem. For the approximately 16,000 pop­ ulation, there is a lone beer tavern, one automobile dealer, one general store, four service ' stations, five grocery stores—and there isn’t any hard liquor for sale either by the bottle or the glass. (There are state- operated liquor stores in nearby towns.) There are no real estate taxes. There is no m ayor or elected town council. No Police Court. There isn’t so m uch as a police court or a lawyer in town. The two-cell city jail never has held a civilian prisoner. There’s no worry for household­ ers about what color to paint their hom es; it’s all done for them —with­ out consultation on their own color tastes. The town adm inistrators launched a city-wide program of painting ev­ ery home and building in varied blending colors (there has been som e eyebrow-raising over how pea green slipped in under the guise of harm ony). For operating the town and seven atomic plants of the Hanford Engi­ neer works, General Electric re­ ceives (in addition to all costs) a fee of $1 from the government. Federal Tax Receipts Are Short Billion and Half WASHINGTON.—Federal tax col­ lections in fiscal 1947 fell $1,563,- 711,000 below the previous fiscal year because of heavy loss of rev­ enue from the repealed excess prof­ its tax, treasury records showed. However, the yield from income taxes reached new peaks. The excess profits tax yield slowed to a com parative trickle of belated paym ents since last Janu­ ary. It was down by $4,256,310,000 for fiscal 1947, but increased, collec­ tions from income and other taxes helped cushion the effect on Treas­ ury receipts. Total receipts of the internal rev­ enue bureau from all sources were listed as $39,108,385,000. (From sur­ plus property sales, customs duties and some other sources the govern­ m ent got supplem entary receipts that boosted its total budget income to $43,037,798,000.) Income tax collections, both from individuals and corporations were up sharply to record highs, reflect­ ing booming business and employ­ ment. Individual income tax receipts reached $19,343,297,000, topping fis­ cal 1946 by $638,761,000 although the tax rate was lowered January I 1946, midway in the earlier year. Not One Piano Tuner in Hundred Gan Play Piano DETROIT— Five hundred piano tuners with a yen to sing had to scout through a hotel to find som e­ one who could play. The situation forced delegates to the convention of the American So­ ciety of Piano Technicians to bare a horrible truth: ; Not one in a hundred tuners knows enough about music to put one note after another! The society’s m em bers, who were waiting for someone to lead ,them in the national anthem , weren’t sur­ prised. Such things had happened before. < <3>00 m J L . - ' Japanese Scienfisf Tells Discovery of Cancer Virus TOKYO. — Dr. Ryoujun Kino- sfiita, a Japanese scientist, claimed in Tokyo the discovery of the isola­ tion of a tiny cancer virus which, m ight speed the search for a com­ plete cancer cure. Dr. Kinoshita said he had dis­ covered the cancer virus in m am ­ m als, a discovery he said which might prove that cancer was n&t hereditary but was transm issible. He added that if a method of sup­ pression of the multiplication of the tiny cancer virus was found, cancer would be controllable. Economy Note—Corned Beef PinwheeIs (See recipe below.) Budget Tointers KUDGET There’s a tendency to go along with the crowd when it comes to spending money, e s p e c i a l l y on food, instead of seeing what can be done to stretch the food dollar. Getting the m ost _ out of the food dollar does not, fortunately, m ean that we have to tighten our belts; it just m eans a bit of m aneuvering. In the m idst of soaring food costs, there’s plenty of help for the woman who w ants it, and today’s recipes are designed to give you plenty of food for thought. Give your fam ily a change of menu, and give the budget a chance to stay within its lim its at the sam e tim e. There are several general rules to follow: Buy wisely; don’t overbuy and let food go to w aste; serve and cook w hatever you have properly, and don’t toss away good left­ overs. For.-m ain dishes you can call on good quality proteins for front line duty; they’re cheaper than the ex­ pensive cuts of m eat and do just as much for you. M acaroni-Cheese Souffle.

MEMORY SELECTION—Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.—Matthew 5:9. EDITOR'S NO TE: Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Edu­cation; used by permission. By WILLIAM CULBERTSON, D. D.Of The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. TT IS true that the Christian life 1 gives offense on occasion. When a controversy exists between m en and God, the Christian has no other course of action than to align him ­ self on God’s side. AS he takes his stand in such cases, he should do it in love, but nevertheless with firmness. The Bible nowhere comm ends a critical spirit or a perverse attitude. It rather em phasizes the necessity of firmness in the course of right, a firm ness that loses nothing of its intensity- through being tem pered in the fires of love. The Christian beyond all others should give him self to a life m ani­ festing sym pathy, kindness and charitableness. Thus he will open avenues of opportunity, of wit­ ness, and of service in which the Lord m ay be greatly magnified. * I. Contributing Factors to the M arring of Good Will (Prov. 3:30, 31; 22:24, 25 ; 25:18; 26:20, 21). VARIANCE and strife m ar good will (Prov. 3:30, 31). Notice that this strife is unoccasioned. When we strive with m en to no purpose; when m en have not harm ed us, and with bitterness of spirit we turn upon them , we of course forfeit ev­ ery opportunity to influence them for good. The m an of variance sim ilarly should be passed by. We are not to em ulate him ; we are not to envy him ; we are to choose none of his ways. A wrathful spirit also m ars good will (Prov. 22:24, 25). A m an of anger is not to be followed by the child of God. This passage enjoins us to have no friendship with such that we shall learn their ways and their ways will then be a snare to our souls.Another way m which we mar good will is to be the purveyors of untruth (Prov. 25:18). The false wit­ ness is characterized as a large hammer or a sword or a sharp ar­ row, for he wounds his neighbor, often grievously. The m an or the woman who in gossip has maliciously wounded another loses all opportunity to influence him for God. The culti­ vation of good will involves the speaking of truth. Let us with all diligence, with the help of God, banish from our hearts and m inds all of these attitudes which hurt and m ar. II. Contributing Factors to the Making of Good Will. IN THE first place, the soft answer of the controlled spirit will estab­ lish good will (Prov. 15:1, 18). The soft answ er does turn aw ay w rath. The m an who is slow to anger ap­ peases strife. Let us not confuse a soft answer with an tmconvinclng one, or with that mealy-mouthed procedure that we commoniy call double talk. Happy is that man who knows how to present the truth convincingly, who can make men, despite his opposing standards, understand that he has their good at heart. Of course, there is one absolute requisite to such a tes­ timony, and that is a life wholly lived for God. Another factor in m aking good will is the act of kindness (Prov. 25:21, 22). This passage, you will rem em ber, is quoted in Rom ans 12. H ere is the opportunity for us, in all m atters of personal injury, to place our case in the hands of God rather than to seek revenge. By such acts of kindness, as we trust God, we shall be obeying the Lord; and who knows but that our ene­ m ies m ay thus be turned to him. A third contributing factor in m aking good will is that of m aking peace (M att. 5:9). So often this business of attem pting to m ake peace is a thankless task, but that thanklessness is only from hum an sources. So far as God is con­ cerned, he has placed his seal of approval upon every child of his who seeks to lead m en into peacewith God and to make peace be­ tween men. God speaks of them as being “called” sons of God. It is one thing to be a son of God; it is an­ other thing to be acknowledged as a son of God. III. The Source of Good Will (Jam es 3:17). T -vHAT wisdom will be character- I ized by purity, peaceableness, gentleness, a p p ro a c h a b le n e s s , m ercy, and will be without par­ tiality and without hypocrisy. This wisdom which is from above is guaranteed to those who know him who has been m ade unto os wisdom (I Cor. 1:30).

SEPTEMBER 10 .947 L O O K I N G A H E A D GEORGE S. BENSON Presidtiit-MiriliHg CcUtjt Scare). Arkansas B u s in e s s T e lls a S to ry Tim e was when it was fashionable for everyone to talk, about big busi­ ness and' count over the gross and net sins of corporations. Of course, there were mighty good stories even then about our steadily rising stand­ ards of living. But the busybodies didn’t bother with those success stories, big or little. I have said that America is now beginning to assum e her task in pub­ lic relations, that of selling her ways and her freedoms and her institu- ( tions to people everywhere. I should like to say that some of our groups and institutions have special respon­ sibilities in this job. I think that labor does, as well as business. The task is im portant to agriculture, to tradesm en, to education, to the professions, and to civic minded folks in every walk. Certainly, la­ bor and industry are each so im­ portant in our economic system, that they m ust be interested in re­ awakening the people to an appre­ ciation of America. A Report to Workers I should, like to tell you about a company that is doing its part, there­ by shouldering its responsibility for this kind of public re-education. Somebody sent me a copy of a re­ port this company m akes to* its employees. The report answers questions employees want to know. The answers are frank, fair, and simply stated. There is no doubt the report has m ade its readers bet­ ter informed Americans. It did so to me. It takes $7,507 worth of capital to give a person a job in this company. Naturally, there would be no jobs for their 3,951 people if it were not for this $29,660,626. Shareholders who put up this money out of what they earn and save, hope to get “a fair rental” for their money. These folks, the report tells us, are capi­ talists—“ and so are you!” Because we own our possessions, we are "capitalists” and this is a “capital­ ist” country. Why Make a Profit? "We have a ‘capitalist’ industry in the United States because millions . . . use part of their ‘capital’ to own and operate the most produc tive farm s, stores, mines, and fac­ tories on this earth. And that is the reason why we, as a people, have the highest standard of living of any nation in the world. No other sys­ tem in any country, at any time, by any other m eans has ever pro­ duced so much for so m any at such little cost as our ‘capitalist’ busi ness does in Am erica.” The company sry= frankly that it m ade money in 1946—about seven and one-half cents on every dol­ lar’s worth of products sold. While this record is term ed a narrow m ar­ gin that calls for economy all along the line, the report m akes it plain that the company expects to keep on making money. All this, midst healthy competitors that cause them to keep putting out better products for less money, Tribute is paid to the keen competition they m eet as an effective price regulator. “A company that can’t make money is like a ship that can’t float. Neither is safe for you and your family. A company m ay lose money for a short time, just as a ship may spring a leak and take in water for a short time, but if the losses and the leak can’t be stopped soon, the ship sinks and the company goes out of business. Passengers on the ship that sinks and employees of the com­ pany that fails are victims of disas­ ter.” Executor’s Notice Having qualified as executor of the es­ tate of John A.

If you want to be famous for delicious blueberry or huckleberry muffins, canning without sugar is preferred. To can blueberries or huckleberries for use in muffins, place two or three quarts of cleaned iierries in a square of cheesecloth. Gcther up the corn­ ers of the cloth and allow the ber­ ries to dip into boiling water until spots appear on the cloth. Then dip quickly in and out of cold water. Pack into hot Ball jars.

Other berries, except strawberries and red raspberries should be heated slowly until the juice runs free be­ fore being placed in jars for pro­ cessing. If sugar is short in your household, can any berries by pro­ cessing 10 minutes in hot water bath after cleaning, crushing, and stew­ ing them in their own juice. If you have sugar, jams will, of course, use less of your supply than preserves. When you are using corn sirup ai part of the sugar required, remem­ ber to cook the jam a little longer, in small batches, and stir often. l l l l l l l i l l l l l l l l l The I I .

Lr. S. Trtasury DfporItHfnI I The pear crop seldom seems to fail and may be ieiied upon by home canners to provide summer fruits for winter tables. To break the monotony of plain canncd pears the universally used Ball Blue Book on home canning suggests some tasty variations. Orange pears may be made by using the juice end rir.d of one-half orange to each quart of sirup. Remove the orange rind before packing the pe.-tra into jars. To make cinnamon pears use two or — 1‘uoto courtesy Uall ttro# Co* three tablespoons of 44Ued Ilot.s” to er.ch quart of sirup, or use stick cinnamon and a few drops of ted coloring. Giiiirer pears are mad« by using ginger tea (water in which ginger root is boiled) instead of plain water for making sirup. Use pineapple juice instead of water for the sirup to nvtke pineapple pears. For plum pears use tart, red plum juice instead of water* for making the sirup. These variations are sure to “hit the spot” with your family.

C, If circumstances seem quite had Aud you don't know what to do; If Satan tries to run vou n n d . O r m ake yon aw fully blue; If everything is going wrong A nd it seem s nobody cares. Just sing some good soul-cherring song And breathe some earnest prav- ers. I’ve traveied some on this same path And know its ins and outs; I'v e felt old S ita n ’s blows ntirl wratb A nd suffered through h isd m bts; But praise the L ord, I'm glad t<> say. Altboiifth one’s spirit wails, When to our God we humbly pray He uever, never fails. O glory to His holy name, H e drives old S atan back. When we are wounded, weak and lame. And well nigh off the track; For when He hears His children call, Though feeble he our cry, He comes to rescue one all Lest we should faint and die; Then don’t despair, O feeble oue, And cast your faith away. But seek God’s help that yon may rnn Life’s race from day to day; That yon mny reach a blessed goal Beyond this world of strife. Where glories never cease to roll Along the Stream of Life. I h e E n d o f A U Controls There’s one thing that should be forever elmininated from the pow- ers of oar federal government: the authority to impose price controls of any kind upon manufacturers, johbers, wholesalers or retailers. In connection with that state­ ment you may feel like saying But why? Isn’t price control of great benefit to many people?" Unquostionable it is. Welll even go so far as to admit that the bene, fits of price control are far greater than any shortcomings which the system may have. Why, then, be so vigorous in urging that it all be done away with? Because it has no part or plaqe in a democratic form of government except when there is some great national emergency in effect—like a war, Just because a thing may be "good” is no justification for setting it up as an authority of our federal government. There un. doubtedly are many ‘‘good things’’ about a monarchial form of gov­ ernment or even about Communism, but we don’t want any part of them. The people who are least govern- ep. That statement was made dur­ ing the early days of onr national history. It still holds good. In re­ cent years we have departed far from it, and we haven't improved our condition a bit. We ought to do our best to get back to it; per haps not all the way, but to some extent at least.—The State.

"Mlgosb!” he must have exclaim ed, "Did I look like that?" For the picture rbowed that tbe present variety of styles in straw bats had not yet been devised. In that blook-long line of young men on that summer day of 1917 every bead was covered with exactly tbe same kind of hard straw hat,, flat- crowned and stiff.brimmed, with no variation except for an occar. ional rugged individnel who tied a black string to tbe hat aud connec. ted it with a lapel button to save bimself the expense of paying an urchin a dime to retrieve it when a snmtner breeze lifted it from his head and sent it rolling down tbe street like a hoop. Bear in mind that in those days a dime was tbe eq Uvelant of a quarter today. The coats on these well-dressed young men of a generation ago hung well below tbe bips with lap­ els reaching almost to tbe waist, giving the general appearance of a truncated bathrobe, The trousers, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, ended about two inches ahove the tops of these rakish, new-stvle low shoes and revealed ankles clothed In rainbow- bned socks. Nobodv considered bimself well dressed unless his sox could attract attention at least a block away. Perhaps that was com. pensation for the hard collars that held his head as immobile as the braces used on traffic accident vie tims with broken necks. The young man of 1917 had just discarded the straight, narrow trou sers tbat made his legs look like a pair of matches, and before tbat he had worn tbe peg-tops that gave him the appearance of being at. ways dressed in jodpburs. Wben be came back from the war, bis trousers widened and Ieng- thsned nntii he had trouble keep­ ing them from dragging the grouoi behind his heels, aud later they became bell bottomed like a sailor's and actually did drag the ground Now tbat trousers have reached a happy medium among all of these extremes, it is ordered that we cut two inches off the bottom and dis­ play gapdy socks as in 1917. THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. Control of Insects Vital in Gardening New Insecticides and Combinations Effective Good gardeners and vegetable growers have learned that insect control is as im portant as good seed, weed control and w ater. New insecticides, new combina­ tion dusts and better “sticking" agents have m ade vegetable and garden dusting m ore popular and effective. The duster should be able to reach the under side of the leaves in m ost crops. Many insects feed on Type of hand duster effective in m ost gardens. the under side. In the control of blights and other plant diseases complete coverage is im portant. F or the average garden, a hand plunger duster is adequate. This duster should have a long discharge tube with upturned end for under­ leaf dusting. L arger gardeners and com m ercial acreages are m ore effi­ ciently dusted with crank or knap­ sack dusters. Good dusting equip­ m ent is m ore efficient and effective in control of insects and plant dis­ eases than make-shifts. Potato yields have been in­ creased 40 to 60 per cent in Univer- . sily of Wisconsin tests by spraying or dusting DDT a t 10-day intervals. Leaf hoppers, flea beetles and po­ tato beetles were controlled. Bean beetles, cabbage worms and m ost common insects are controlled by ^ dusting. W hey as Preservative Dried cheese whey is added as a preservative in a grass silage dem­ onstration, using a tem porary silo, on the farm of Emerson Grebel, Beaver Dam , Wis. The grass, i m ixed legumes, was chopped in the Whey added to silage as a preservative. field. Whey powder, about 30 pounds to the ton, was added to the chopped grass as it was fed to the blower.

Sulfathiazole Used Against Calf Scouis Calf scours treatm ent with vita­ m in pills or tablets does no good. That’s the latest word on the sub­ ject from Cornell university. Those in charge of the Cornell work say: "Studies involving approxim ately 60 heifer calves of various dairy breeds show that supplementing a norm al diet with capsules or tablets containing vitam ins A, D and E, ascorbic acid, and several of the B vitam ins did not reduce the inci. dence or severity of scours.” Remove 2,4-D Residue From Spray Equipment Injury to plants, such as stunted growth and reduced crop yields, m ay result when using spray for insecticides and fungicides which contain 2,4-D residue.

Roosevelt Family Turns to Farming Baukhage E l l i o t t a n d E l e a n o r B e g i n B a c k - t o - L a n d M o v e m e n t B y B A U K H A G ENews Analyst and Commentator, WASHINGTON.— Moses Smith, I understand, has retired. He is leaving the 140 acres he has been farming for 27 years. His landlord’s widow and her son are going to work it from now on. The last time I saw Moses Smith he was dressed in his Sunday clothes. We were both up in his former landlord’s bedroom, with some of the neighbors. It was a sad occasion. It was the boss’ birthday anniversary but he had been dead nearly two years. The room looked the sam e to Moses and his friends who had seen it often whew they cam e up there to talk over farm and other business. The form er occu­ pant’s dressing gown was lying on the bed, his slippers w ere by the couch. The boss was one of the landlords that tenants like. Moses told m e that, five years before, when I visited him at his white-painted farm house. “I’ve rented from him for 22 <S ---------------------- years (that was 1941),” he told m e then, “ and he has yet to find a fault. W henever he gets a chanqe he com es over here to say ‘hel­ lo’ and ‘goodbye’ but he doesn’t find fault. And I’ve m ade mis­ takes, too. No­ body is perfect.” T he la n d lo rd h a d a pretty good opinion of the tenant, too, a s I learned later. S m ith knew that and was pleased, but it didn’t go to his head. He is a typical, independent, self-respecting up-state New York farm er. I rem em ber he said to m e that day, sitting on the front stoop, in 194I:— “ The President drove over here a little wljile back, with Princess Juliana. He told her about this house being over 100 years old and I told him about the well-water. It had gone bad. So he said go ahead and dig a new well.” .Smith and I walked over to the new well. It was 100 feet deep. " It will last 100 years,” said Smith with the pride you find up that way in good things that last. By this tim e yon have guessed that Smith w as a tenant on the Roosevelt estate at Hyde Park, N. I . I take it he is a comfort­ ably retired farm er now, living in the nearby village of the sam e nam e. Atad M rs. Eleanor Roosevelt and her son, Elliott, have taken over. I don’t know who will live in the farm house. The old Roosevelt hom estead is a m useum now—hut the Roose­ velts have other dwellings. They are going in for com m ercial farm ing, Mrs. R. said. Elliott hadn’t been interviewed since the senate w ar investigating com mittee start­ ed looking into the Hughes airplane, and ended looking the other way and blushing. The testim ony had a lot to do with the night club—cock- tail-lounge side of young Roose­ velt’s activities but nobody could find a hole in his w ar record. Even his m any critics adm it that. * Elliott’s friends are heaving sighs of relief to hear that he is going in for something constructive. W ar takes a lot of courage and skill, too, but it isn’t very constructive. Nei­ ther is night life. “This is a challenge,” Mrs. Roosevelt explained in her col­ um n, “which Elliott and I will enjoy.” Every farm er knows she’s right about the “ chal­ lenge.” They aren’t going to try to raise wheat, corn, potatoes, or attem pt to keep 14 cows, as Smith was doing when I visited him. They are going to continue raising Christm as trees, a venture which the late President started and seriously pursued for several years. Smith’s 140 acres, which were devoted to generai farm ing, are only a fraction of the m ore than 1,000 acres, much of which is wooded, and part of which has been devoted to a scientif­ ically - cultivated evergreen crop, which m ake up the estate. M rs. Roosevelt explained that she and her son couldn’t afford to keep the estate as a country place, as her mother-in-law had. I noticed that the New York Her- ald-Tribune m ade editorial note of Mrs. Roosevelt’s plans and m en­ tioned that a lot of acres along the Hudson “were untilled.” It mentioned that Dr. Samuel Bard, a wealthy retired physician, ha'd a place not far from the Roose­ velt estate where he carried on val­ uable experim ents which m ade an im portant contribution to agricul­ ture. Mrs. Roosevelt hopes to con­ duct sim ilar experim ents. “If M rs. Roosevelt,” says the Herald-Tribune, “does no m ore than fasten rem em brance on the fact that land endures . . . that stability of farm ing is that of a renewable world in which seedtim e and har­ vest are still m ore lasting than dy­ nasties and dictators . . . the new farm ing partnership will have done much of value before the first fur­ rows are turned.” I wonder if you feel the way I do. I think, regardless of the color of one’s political senti­ m ents, anybody who loves the soil can offer his w ell. wishes , to this venture with the hope that the young m an will do as well with his hands in the earth as he did with his plane in the T r a g e d y i n t h § F o r e s t s It was a coincidence that while I was rem iniscing on the subject of the Roosevelts’ new adventure in tree-growing, m y neighbor in the building across the street presented m e with a couple of typewritten pages containing some striking facts about tree destruction. They are apropos, I think, now, as we move toward the close (we hope) of the worst season of forest fires In a decade. This period of holocausts began before the ink was dry on bills passed by congress m aking deep slashes in the interior departm ent’s appropriations for fire control. Many of the cuts later were re­ stored, but not in tim e to save thou­ sands of acres of tim ber in some areas of Am erica, notably Alaska. “The saw tim ber burned in a single year in this country,” says my friend’s memorandum, “ would be sufficient, if convert­ ed to building m aterials, to re­ place every private house in the cities of New Orleans or Min­ neapolis. “If the wood below sawtim ber di­ mensions could be m anufactured for paper, it would provide a 25- year subscription to a monthly pocket-size m agazine for every m an, woman and child in our 142 million population. ‘I f it could be converted to rayon pulp, it would provide m aterial for m ore than a hundred new dresses for every woman and girl in Amer­ ica. “ In terms of dollars, our annual forest fire loss amounts to 35 m illion dollars in payrolls lost to wood­ workers and three-quarters of a bil­ lion dollars worth of wood products. “ The tragic part of a ll this is that 9 out of 10 forest fires conld be prevented. Nine our of 10 are traceable to hum an causes —to incendiarists, causing more than 25 per cent of all fires; to sm okers, careless debris-burn- ers, railroads, cam pers and woodsworkers who are respon­ sible in the or£?r nam ed.” Well, those are the sentim ents of m y neighbor, who is trying to establish a “balanced cooperation” among the m en who m ake tbeir money out of trees, one way or an­ other, the people and the birds and the bugs who need to have trees, and the governm ent and others who try to protect and preserve them . One non-cooperating m atch tosser can undo a lot of his work. Ir <U. S.

N E W S R E V I E W J o i n t D e f e n s e P a c t S e t ; F e a r L a r g e C o r n L o s s P O L E -T O -P O L E : Mutual Defense James Monroe, fifth President of the United States, bad bfc say, in spirit, at least, at the inter-American defense con­ference at Petropolis, Brazil, in August, 1947. When the conference agreed on a m utual aid treaty for North and South Am erica and their territorial w aters, and set up a vast, North Pole-South Pole hem ispheric secu­ rity zone, the celebrated Monroe doctrine was developed to its log­ ical conclusion 124 years after its inception. This was the burden of the Mon­ roe doctrine in 1823: “It is only when our rights are invaded or se­ riously menaced that we resent in­ juries or m ake preparations for our defense . . . in this hem isphere . . . ” Today, the Am ericas are making preparations for hem ispheric de­ fense in advance of any m enace or invasion of their rights. The mu­ tual defense treaty embodies three m ain points: 1. In the case of arm ed attack from outside the hem isphere, all nations have the autom atic right to m eet the attack with m ilitary m easures. 2. If m ilitary attack occurs in­ side the hem isphere, American nations m ay go voluntarily to the -aid of the victim , with con­ sultations to follow. 3. If attacks occur both inside the hem isphere and outside the security region, im m ediate con­ sultations will be called. Thus, despite the opposition of some Latin Am erican nations to the U. S.-espoused “Monroe doctrin­ ism ,” it appeared certain that the “hands off the A m ericas” policy w as in for a big revival in the atom­ ic age. TO RRID ZO N E: Corn Declines Therm om eter-happy Americans, struggling feebly in the moist clutches of a record heat wave, could take cold com fort from the fact that tem peratures w ere being exceeded in height only by the price of corn. With abnorm ally hot w eather pre­ vailing over m ost of the nation, grains continued to deferiorate from lack of m oisture and prices of both corn and oats hit new record highs. Septem ber corn was selling at $2.45 a bushel and Septem ber oats zoomed to $1.08%, The grain m arket prices went through the roof following a depart­ m ent of agriculture report that the country’s heat-seared corn crop would produce only 2,437,000,000 bushels, -a 223 million bushei drop from the Ajigust I estim ate. Although agriculture departm ent officials had hoped earlier this year for a 3 billion bushel corn crop to keep food production high, weeks of hot, dry winds shrivelled that hope, and the corn crops of Iowa and Illinois, m ajor producing sections, continued to decline stead­ ily. IN WASHINGTON . . . John Samp­ son Kirby, 69, (above) of Tennessee was placed under observation after police had nabbed him packing a pistol in the capitol building and de­ claiming loudly that he had “just been elected president of the United States.” IN NEW XORE . . . Virginia Wal­ ton Brooks, 14, just returned from an African hunting trip with her parents, proudly revealed that she had shot not only an elephant and a lion but also such esoteric crea­ tures as a kongoni, two gerenuks, an oryx, a bat-eared fox, an im- pala, two dil^-diks and a klipspring- er. IN CHICAGO . . . M rs. Anna Metz­ ger, 47, had had a pain in her leg for 40 years, finally becam e curi­ ous, pressed the irritated area and pulled out a two-inch sewing needle. SAY UNCLE: Ford Gives Up Abandoning his laudable, if non­ conforming, efforts to stabilize auto­ mobile prices, Henry Ford II an­ nounced that prices on “m ost mod­ els” of Ford passenger cars and all truck models would be boosted from $20 to $97, effective im m ediately. It was an average increase of 4.2 per cent, the announcem ent said, the rise being dictated by “the sim­ ple necessity of keeping Ford Motor company on a sound economic basis.” The action, following price in­ creases by virtually every other au­ tomotive m anufacturer, m arked the defeat of Ford’s lonely stand against the forces of inflation. All this gave rise to a disturbing question: If the Ford dynasty is un­ able to hold the line against infla­ tion, what, if anything, can? T H E SW IFT : Oysters Lose Oysters simply aren’t fast enough to get away from predatory snails whose pace has been clocked offi­ cially at .00363005 miles an hour. Plodding along on a treadm ill at the University of M aryland fish and wildlife laboratory, a test snail cov­ ered 22 feet and % inch in 11 -hours and 30 m inutes — a pace swift enough, at least, to overtake an oyster. Purpose of the laboratory’s snail- timing experim ents is to slow the little creatures up even more. As things stand now, they’re doing too much dam age to Chesapeake Bay’s oyster crop. FIRST VICTIM D e f l a t i o n a T h r e a t t o F a r m e r Producers of farm commodities, although strongly entrenched in the present economy and apparently destined to remain so, at least fo r the im m ediate future, m ay be the first group to feel the full im pact of any reversal of the current in­ flationary trend. That warning was issued by fed­ eral reserve board researchers in a m idyear study of the position of agriculture, indicating that, even in flush tim es, the well-being of farm ­ ers is in a state of delicate balance. If the present boom were to de­ velop into a tailspin, price falls in the agricultural commodity field probably would be greater than in other areas of the economy, the re­ port points out. Record returns to farm ers attributed to prosperous urban consum ers and an alm ost un­ limited demand from abroad could be reversed in a flash. The federal reserve board survey explained the danger of deflation to farm ers by citing three factors now operating to keep prices high, I The share of consumer incomes • going to food consumption is much larger than has been Ais- tomary. 2 Profit m argins of producers and • distributors are greater than usual. 3 Speculative factors play an im- * portant part in m aintaining prices on num erous m arkets. “Consequently, with any reversal of inflationary tendencies, food prices m ay be particularly subject to downward pressures.” While the financial position of farmers has undergone a vast, gen­ eral improvement as compared with pre-war years, m any individ­ ual farm ers have increased ih e ir indebtedness, and the new debt is w ritten on the basis of sharply ad­ vanced values. In particular, the report declared that land values m ust start declin­ ing before m uch longer. Thus, while the farm er is enjoying a high level of income and prosperity as a result of the prevailing inflationary econ­ omy, the sam e forces which are now operating to his benefit appear as a lurking but altogether possible danger to his future security.

We old people can’t adjust ourselves to changes in a minute, Jill," Dave said. “Could you stand the idea of get­ ting a son-in-law in an awful hurry, M rs.

And Sandra knew.” “Jill said that she m ade vague threats.” “This isn’t the end, Dave. Some­ tim es I think there never will be an end. There can’t be, while Rich­ ard is alive. But he did try to save his son. And he didn’t hurt Jill.” “If Jill m arries this young chap, Gordon, she’ll have other things to think about. Even if the shock com es it won’t stun her.

She knows this lieutenant so casu­ ally—she has seen him only three tim es.” “Now is all the tim e they have, Dooley, rem em ber?"

And I can’t appear out of uniform , even at my own wedding.” “I’ll wear some overalls, Spang,” Jill volunteered, blithely. She was sparkling all over now, her hair w as as alive as something quick­ ened by a galvanizing current, her eyes danced, even the gilt freckles on her nose twinkled. “And a ban­ dana around m y head, and the bride will carry a bouquet of pig’s knuckles tied with spinach.” “You’ll do nothing of the sort,” declared Julia. “You’ll have a bou­ quet, and Dave will ransack the arm y store in the morning to find some things for Spang to wear, and we'll even have a wedding-cake. “There won’t be any arch of swords,” Spang rem inded Jill. “ You won’t even have a wedding m arch. But you’ll have m e.” “Briefly.” Jill’s mouth quivered for an instant, then tightened again to the sm ile she had been keeping fast. She said, “I’ll w ear my faille and m y little turban, and Grandfa­ th er will give m e away, and Dooley will weep, knowing all the tim e that •she’ll get m e back again in a couple of hours and have m e on her hands for the duration. You’d better get a little sleep, Spang. I’d hate to have my bridegroom pass out on .me between ‘Dearly beloved’ and ‘I do.’ ” “ You could use a few winks your­ self. You want to be on the alert, you know, when I bestow all my worldly goods upon you. You want to be sure you aren’t getting gypped.” Julia heard it all with a little in­ w ard pang. Richard should be here to give his daughter away! Richard had seen her now, he knew what he had thrown aside, what he had lost. Whatever he had done, however he had justified himself, Richard was having his reckoning now. Jill did not see the paper next day. There was too much excitement. Dave got on the telephone and wangled a forty-hour leave for Lieu­ tenant Gordon from his command­ ing officer, and Julia came down from the attic, her arms full of tis­ sue paper and wisps of stuff. “I’ve planned since you were five months old to have you come down these stairs to be m arried, Jill,” she said. “I’ve seen you, in my “ Oh Spang—you m ean—you do?” dream , reflected in the m irrors, with a veil drifting around your hair. I was m arried in a street dress, with a hobble skirt and a dreadful hat that dropped clear down over m y ears, but my m other had ele­ gance and orange blossoms. If this dress isn’t too yellow and brittle— if you can squeeze into it—we can press it carefully, and it isn’t too Victorian, not so terribly diiferent from some of the Godeyish things they’re wearing now.” John I. Catches A Bouquet “Satin,” breathed Jill, fingering the heavy folds of the sweeping train. “I never dream ed you’d let m e w ear this, Dooley. And real lace on the veil! Let me try it on! Oh, I’m so glad we don’t have to rush things so Spang can get away. I’ll be really m arried! Look at all the million little hooks! They certainly had patience in those days! Doo­ ley, with the sash let out a little, it will m eet here at the -belt! So Jill cam e down the M cFarlane stairs in her grandm other’s wed­ ding gown, and Lieutenant Spencer Gordon, Army Air Corps, stood at the foot of the stairs waiting for his bride in a new pair of khaki trousers a trifle too long and a khaki skirt with sleeves a little too short, but there was worship in his face, and at the bottom Jill smiled at him dizzily. .There were the few hastily as­ sembled guests and the old, old tune played by some volunteer on the piano. They ate ice-cream andMamie’s hastily baked wedding cake, the icing s till slightly drippy, they drank toasts in John I.’s cham­ pagne, and then it was over and J ill was flying down the stairs again in her faille suit, her hat in her hand, and stopping to toss her bouquet over the ra il. John I. caught it and looked a little bewildered and em barrassed as Jill went into hysterics of laugh­ ter at'him , so he poked it abruptly at the nearest woman and fled, Then Jill and Spang were rattling away in the old station-wagon, bound for the m ountain inn only a few miles away w here they would spend their brief and precious tim e together. The last guest departed, Dave be­ gan putting chairs in their places and blowing out candles, John I. pulled off his necktie and hunted for his old pipe, and Julia went out on the porch and dropped into a chair, sighing with w eariness and sliding her feet out of the tight, high pumps she had worn. Richard Pays an Overdue Debt John I. cam e out, dragged a m atch down the bricks of the wall, giving her a sidelong, guilty look when the m atch left a brown m ark. “Forgot the paper,” he m uttered when he had the pipe going. ' “Dang w ar m ight be over, and we wouldn’t know it.” He trudged down the driveway, picked up the paper where the boy had thrown it, unrolled it, and walked back across the lawn, stum ­ bling a little, reading the headlines. Julia saw him stop and study the paper for a m inute or two and then come plunging on, walking headlong into a spirea bush, and she told her­ self that poor old John I. was breaking fast, that all the excite­ m ent of this past week had been too much for him. She was lost in reverie when John I. struggled up to the porch, pant­ ing, and laid the paper in her lap. “There!” he gasped, pointing. “Look there!” It was not a big headline. But it leaped from the paper and smote Julia M cFarlane’s consciousness like a blow. ARMY OFFICER AND WOMAN LOSE LIVES ,WHEN CAR CRASHES INTO TENNESSEE RIVER Old John I. dropped into a chair and was twisting his trem bling hands together. “Dooley, when he cam e here last night I shook his hand. I'm so glad now that I shook his hand!” “I’m glad, too, John I.,” Julia said, in a toneless voice. She laid the paper down and walked out across the grass, under the high, ancient trees.

Its 1828 building, old-fashioned fixtures and heterogenous display of merchandise make the Vermont Country Store an exact replica of the general store in grandfather’s day. IN THESE UNITED STATES D o n ’t Y e ll tM r n l At Reckless Driver; Itfs Overrating Him C o u n t r y S t o r e M u s e u m I s R e p li c a o f 1 8 8 0 E m p o r i u m W NU Features. WESTON, V T .-Walk into the Vermont Country Store here and immediately you are transported back into grandfather’s day. For the Country Store, housed in an ancient building with hand-hewn rafters and with its shelves littered with an amaz­ ingly heterogeneous display of goods,‘is an exact replica, of tha 1880 Vermont emporium. In structure, fixtures and merchan­ dise, this unique country store mu-^ ------------------------------------- seum is typical of the general store which grandfather knew in his youth. Although the present Vermont Country Store dates back only to June, 1946, its predecessor of the sam e nam e originally w as founded a t North Calais, Vt., in 1897 by G ardner L. Orton. This store later w as moved to Weston, and it was in this sam e location that V rest Orton, son of the founder, reopened the old-fashioned cross-roads general store in the sum m er of 1946. Background of the store is au­ thentic, m ost of the fixtures coming from the store of the original founder. Other fixtures w ere presented by nearby Ver­ m ont storekeepers interested in the pro ject While the building itself, con­ structed in 1828, and the fixtures are as old-fashioned as it is possible to m ake them , the country store m useum is not a dead, lifeless af­ fair. On the old shelves and coun­ ters Orton has stocked as varied a display of goods as would have been found Jn his father’s em porium a half century ago. The place is redolent of mingled odors of spices, kerosene and cattle feed, while dim lights are a re­ m inder of long bygone days. Revived also around the old, high, wood-burning stove under the hand-hewn rafters is the old country store forum w here peo­ ple gather to express their frank opinions on subjects rang­ ing from local politics to the state of the nation. The Verm ont Country Store is m ore than a typical m useum. Or­ ton's experim ent, in a day when the stereotyped, chain-store, slot m a­ chine atm osphere prevails in gro­ cery stores, m ay have far-reaching im plications, for he is re-introduc- ing the old-fashioned storekeeper’s policy of knowing thoroughly the goods he was selling. This type of store, Orton explains, m akes it possible once again “for people to enjoy the experience of going into a store.” N early 30,000 people visited the novel store m useum last sum m er and fall, and even larger attendance has been recorded during the pres­ ent season. , Rural School Pupils Pass Up Desserts To Aid War Victims NEWTOWN, PA,—As a m em orial to alum ni who lost their lives in W orld W ar II, pupils of George rural school in Bucks county have launched a project to aid pupils of two G erm an schools. Recipients of the aid are the G ertraudenschule, a girls’ school in Berlin, and the Jacobi gym nasium , a school for boys a t Dusseldorf. Pupils are voluntarily sacrificing their m ealtim e luxuries to provide food, clothing and other necessities for the 800 Germ an school children. Pennies saved by skipping ice cream and dessert are contributed to a special relief fund. During the first six weeks of its operation, the relief chest am ounted to $1,319. Collections included regu­ lar contributions as well as money saved by giving up some item on the menu. MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. — Wher you m utter “Moron!” at the drivel who just m issed sideswiping youi car, you m ay be tem porarily over- rating him , it is indicated in traffic fatality statistics assem bled bj Northwestern National Life Insur­ ance company. The vast m ajority of our ghastly annual toll of auto­ mobile accidents occurs when driv­ ers are devoting only p art of theii intelligence to driving, the reporl emphasizes. The m oron rates at from 50 to 7( per cent of average hum an intelli­ gence, the im becile level is between 25 and 50 per cent of average and the idiot rates below 25 per cent. Thus, the report points out, when the driver of average in­ telligence puts from a quarter to one-half of his m ind on his driving, and devotes one-half to three-quarters of his brain to conversation, scolding the chil­ dren, listening to a quiz pro­ gram or adm iring scenery, the hazards are about the sam e as if a m oron or submoron were doing his very best a t the wheel. An average m ind fogged by alcohol m ay have its driv­ ing capabilities actually a t the im becile level. The splendid safety records of th< railroads and the airlines woulc take a terrific nose dive, the report suggests, if engineers and pilots craned necks a t soenery—feminine or otherwise—argued with wives, necked with the girl friend or were under the influence of alcohol, while on duty. Y et the m otorist constantly com­ m its these driving stns, while airily piloting his passengers without the guidance of steel rails and through traffic a hundred tim es as dense as that of the railroads and the air lanes. A probable 24,000 lives could be saved each year, the insurance company estim ates, if all m otorists could be convinced th at piloting an autorpobile safely is a job worthy of their best intelligence on a full-time basis.

NEW YORK. — Although it m ay not solve the teacher shortage, the City College of New York believes it has taken a step in the right direction by teaching students of education how to dress, fix their hair and m ake up their faces for the classroom. A series of lecture-dem onstrations w as devoted to teaching the stu­ dents how to look like, as well as be, up-to-date teachers. To conclude the series, students staged a style show, modeling classroom and other clothes for teachers. In classroom clothes, one girl m odeled an outfit suited to the classical old m aid school teacher, a black silk dress complete with high lace collar.

L e t 9S H a v e a F a ir A large number of people in this section are interested in hav­ ing a Davie County Fair next year. For several years a fair was held in Mocksville every fall at the Masonic picnic grounds, but a few years ago the fair was dis­ continued. The last fair held here some seven or eight years ago, drew a large crowd with an at­ tendance in one day of about 3,000 paid admissions. The ex­ hibits were larger and better than were found at much larger fairs. We understand that there is more than $800 on deposit in the Bank of Davie, to the credit of Davie Fair Association. The Re­ cord is heartily in favor of a fair for Davie in the fall of 1948. Talk to vour neighbors a n d friends about this matter and let’s do something to restore our fair of former years.

Competition means- extra money in your pocket. The support price announced by your Government gives the Winston Salem Market 1947 a guaran­ teed support price of approximately 40 cents a pound. This price on the various grades runs from a low of 8 cents to a high of 68 cents. This support price, set before any market opened, will remain the same until the last pouud is sold and promises Winston-Salem tbe most uniform market in history. Prevailing prices this season are just above the pegged price. No grade of tobacco can take a sub­ stantial drop in price. In’the past, we know that foreign buyers have purchased millions of pounds of Old Belt tobacco. - The foreign situation might greatly improve by the time of the opening of our market, again per­ mitting heavy purchases on the Winston-Salem market. Quality counts in 1947! It will pay you as never before to grade carefully tobacco. Be sure to keep green, dead or red tobacco out of your cigarrette grades. This will make it qualify for the highest possible loan. v Keep your tobacco dry and, by all means, remove all strings before grading it.

G uidance From Proverbs Lesson for Septem ber 21, 1917 CA UR study of Sunday’s lesson centers about the idea of good­ ness, which is a rather trite-sound­ ing them e, but very vital, I assure you, and quite in­ teresting. The Scripture passages are all found in Proverbs, save one, and that from the very practical preacher of the N ew Testament, Jam es, chapter 4, verse 17. Perhaps you will find the passages from Proverbs as helpful and inter­ esting as I did. It will require but two m inutes to read them—Proverbs 3:5-7; 4:23; 6:16- 19; 9:10; 14:34; 15:1; 16:18; 21:3; 22:1; 27:1, 2; 28:1; 29:18. And after you have devoted two m inutes to the reading of these passages, you will have something to think about for the rest of the day, the week, all D r. Newton your life, ♦ * * One Man’s Experience A VERY successful business m an in Atlanta, a shoe m anufactur­ er, was telling me his life story one day as we fished together at Ho- m osassa, Fla. Finally, he said: “Do you know the passage in the Bible that has m eant m ost to m e as a rule and guide for m y faith and practice?” I wondered what he would say. And then he quoted from Proverbs 3:5-7. “ T rust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him , and he shall direct thy paths. Be not. wise in thine own eyes; fear the Lord, and depart from evil.” * < * The Essence of Goodness "XXT-HAT is goodness? We talk ’ v about good m en and bad men, good tim es and bad times, good luck and bad luck. Just what is good­ ness? Jesus himself olice said to a young man: “There is none good but One, that is, God.” M ark 10:18. Goodness then, perm it m e to sug­ gest, is what happens when God lives in us. We can never know goodness apart from God, try as we m ay. The essence of goodness, therefore, is found in that heart, in that life, that sincerely prays, “Thy wiU be done.”• * * The Essence of Badness GUIDANCE from these great Proverbs identifies the things that we are to shun as well as the things we are to do—the essence of badness as well as the essence of goodness. Here are the seven things that God hates—the seven qualities of heart that constitute the essence of badness: “Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, bands that shed innocent blood, -a heart that deliberately plans wick­ edness, feet which are swift in run­ ning to mischief, a false witness who utters lies, and one who sows discord among brethren.” ‘ Analyze these seven qualities of heart, and you have the explanation of the woes of the world. Many clever modern books toy with these deadly sins, trying to m ake them seem good, but no amount of deco­ ration can atone for the heart that consistently entertains these can­ cers of hell. „* * * The Individual and Society I LIKE the im pact of these Prov­ erbs. They begin with the indi­ vidual. They fruit in society. In­ dividuals who “trust in the Lord with all thine heart,” will “exalt a nation.” It is not enough to put better food in peoples’ stomachs, Better clothes on their bodies, better roofs over their heads. These are essential as expressing the better life; but you have got to give peo­ ple something to live for as well as something to live on. Good business depends upon good business m en. Good inter­ national relations depend upon good nations. Good race relations depend upon good races. We have been greatly enheart- ened by the establishm ent of United Nations as a world idea and ideal. Will it succeed? The answ er is found not in dollars and bullets, but in hearts that always “trust in the Lord.” "Except the Lord build the house. They labor in vain that build HiExcept the Lord keep the city,Tbe watchman waketb but in vain.” —Psalm 127:1* * * I (Copyright by the International Council of Religious Education on behalf of AO -Ptot- ostant denominations.

Chicken Cookery According to the Commodity In­ dex, which records the rise and fall of wholesale prices, poultry today is selling at prices we were paying in 1926. Needless to say, this means that at a time when other foods have soared, poultry is at a low level. W ith a favor­ able supply and price, you can plan to use a lot of poultry now, and give your fam ily something of a treat with unusually prepared chicken dishes. Chicken should be cooked to “fork tenderness.” There is little ex­ cuse for underdone or overdone chicken if you follow the recipes given today, with particular care to tem peratures and tim e for the cookery. A m oderate tem perature is best to use for chieken so as not to shrink it too m uch, m ake it dry or tough. Most people who like chicken say there’s no better way to cook it than to fry it. The generally ac­ cepted method is as follows: 1. Rub seasoned flour into pieces. For each pound of chicken, blend % cup flour, I teaspoon paprika, Hi teaspoon salt, and scant Vs tea­ spoon pepper. Save left-over flour for gravy. 2. Heat enough fat in a heavy skillet to give a depth of about % inch, using any desired fat. A drop of water should sizzle when tem­ perature of fat is just hot enough. 3. S tart m eaty pieces first, slip­ ping less m eaty pieces in between as chicken browns. Avoid crowd­ ing; use two skillets if necessary. 4. As soon as chicken begins to brown, about 10 m inutes, reduce heat, and cook slowly until tender, 30 to 60 m inutes, depending on size of pieces. Cover tightly as soon as it is a light, uniform tan. 5. Turn 2 or 3 tim es with 2 spoons or fork and spoon to brown and cook evenly. Avoid piercing with fork. 6. Add I or 2 tablespoons w ater before covering, especially recom ­ m ended if pan cannot be covered tightly, or if bird is heavier than 3 pounds. 7. Uncover last 15 m inutes to re­ crisp skin if desired. The liver and precooked heart, gizzard, and neck m ay be floured and browned with chicken the last 15 m inutes. 8. Lift fried chicken to hot plat­ ter. Prepare gravy in pan drip­ pings.

HUNTINGfor More BUSINESS T rjr O u r Ad Millions of my young nieces and nephews are returning Io school to learn from tiieir teacher, school­ m ates and books a way of fife. Be­ sides gram m ar, history, arithm etic, home economics and a variety of other courses, they will come face to face with sportsm anship, honerty, self-reliance and the habit of thrift. Facts cram m ed in!o the heads of Willie and Jane will come in handy, but thrift is som ething which will be vital to their well-being every day of their lives. Of course the habit of thrift m ay be acquired in m any ways, bat a sure way is the partici­ pation of m y young nieces and neph­ ews in the United States Treas­ ury D epartm ent’s School Savings Program . U. S. Treasury Department Millions of m y nieces antf nephews are increasing their take-home pay by the sim ple, autom atic Payroll Savings Plan. Let’s take one exam ­ ple. Suppose you tell your em ployer that you w ant to take $6.25 of your weekly pay in Bonds. In three weeks the accum ulation of $18.75 will buy one $25 Savings Bond. M erely by holding these bonds to m aturity in 10 years you are raising your take- home income $2.08 every week. It is obvious that the so-called deduc­ tion for Savings Bonds is not a de­ duction but a way for you to store up and increase your earnings for your future use. f. U. S. Treasury Department * Start Your Own Ralionins Sysiem • You’re on your own this year so far as home canning sugar is con­ cerned! How much you have for canning depends upon how much you save. As this is being written, the revised rationing system increases the amount of sujr:ir allowed each in­ dividual but makes no provision for additional allotments for home can­ ning. So it’s entirely up to you to estab­ lish your own system of rationing, setting aside a certain amount from each individual’s allotment for put­ ting up home-canned foods. If you can't possibly, even by self- imposed rationing, have enough sugar to put up all the food you want with as much sugar as you’d like, then you can fall back on the sugar stretching methods used with such good results during the war. Housewives learned then that fruits for pies, puddings and gel­ atin desserts keep just as well with­ out sugar, although it’s advisable to use a little sugar, if possible, with light colored fruits in order to pre­ serve color. They learned, too, that a combination of corn sirup and granulated sugar gives excellent re­ sults. Those who enjoy the taste of honey learned to use it as a suirar extender. Use of saccharin is barred of course because it has a tendency to produce an unpleasant taste. Home canners have also learned that they can use brown sugar, maple sugar and sirup in butters, jam s and spreads, although these are not satisfactory for other canning. Puttins up some amount of fruit without sugar is a good idea because you then have it on hand to make into jan.s and jellies as needed. Home-Canned Picklcd Beets Are Good Appetizers Small pickled beets add a colorful and appetizing note to mcrls the year ’round. Your home canning schedule should include them. Here is an excellent recipe taken from the famous Ball Blue Book on home canning: 1 gallon small beets 2 cups sugar, or I cup sugar and I cup corn sirup I long stick cinnamon I tablespoon allspice isH cups vinegar IMt cups water Cook and skin beets. Add sugar and spices to vinegar and water. Simmer 15 minutes. Add beets. Boil live minutes. Pack beets into hot jars. Cover with boil.ng sirup. If not enough sirup to cover, add more vinegar. Process five minutes in hot ViJiter bath. Those Sun-Cooked Preserves Make Delicious Treats Firm-ripe cherries, currents, red raspberries or strawberries may be used for sun-cooked preserves. Cher­ ries should be washed and seeded; currants washed and stemmed; strawberries washed and capped. Drain and weight the fruit. Work with small batches, using equal amounts of sugar and fruit. Place fruit and sugar in alternate layers in a broad pan. Let stand overnight. Heat slowly to boiling and boil six minutes. Spread in shallow trays and cover with window glass. Allow air space on all sides. Let the mix­ ture stand in the sun for three days, or until the sirup begins to jell and the fruit is plump. Stir gently two or three times daily. Do not keep the mixture out of doors overnight. Pack into hot Ball jars and process 15 minutes at simmering. Many ol the berry family will go into jars without sugar at all and keep perfectly for later use. If you want to be famous for delicious blueberry or huckleberry muffins* canning without sugar is preferred* To can blueberries or huckleberries for use in muffins, place two or three quarts of cleaned berries m a square of cheesecloth. Gfciher up the corn­ ers of the cloth and allow the ber* ries to dip into boiling water until spots appear on the Cloth. Then dip quickly in and out of cold water. Pack into hot Br.U jars. Add neither sugar nor liquid. Process 20 min* res Co. utes in hot water bath. Other berries, except strawberries and red raspberries should be heated slowly until the juice runs free be­ fore being placcd in jars for pro­ cessing. If sugar is short in your household, can any berries by pro­ cessing 10 minutes in hot water bath after cleaning, crushing, and stew­ ing them in their own juice. If you have sugar, jams will, of course, us^ less of your supp.’y than preserves* When you are using corn sirup a* part of the sugar required, remem­ ber to cook the jr.m a little Iongert in small batches, and stir often.

Living Wiih Your- Self Rev. Walter E. Isenhour. Hiddenite. N. C. Had you ever stopped to think that the person you live with the most Is yoursetf? The fact is yon live with yonrself every tnomont, minute, hour, day, week, month and year that you spend on earth, and shall live with yonrself some­ where else In your home, in your community, at vour work, or wherever you are; but yon are not with somebody else every minute and boor of life. There are times when you are alone; yet you are with yonrself. How do you like yonrself? Wbat kind of company are you keeping yourself? Are yon delighted witn yonr conduct, habits, deeds. Ian. guage, principals, tempraments, traits and characteristics? Oanyou compliment yourself on the way you treat your body, your health, vonr mind and yonr precious soul Are you pleesed with your way ot living? Is it for your good, for the good of others and the glory of God? Areyontreatingyourselfso as to live ont your days upon earth? Or is it a fact that vou are shorten­ ing yonr days by yonr bad and rninons habits, your sinfulness and wickedness, and by violating the laws of God and nature? Yon are living with yourself. Don’t forget this fact. You are either your own slave, or you are yonr own master, by the help and graee ot God. Of course if yon leave God ont of yonr iife, then you are a slave to yonr passions, desires, whims, ambitions, aopeti tes, propen'ities, inclinations, prin cipals, traits and characteristics. Naturally every man in sin certain­ ly is not in good, noble, unlifting, elevating, commeudable, sublime, worth-while, first-class company with himself. You will have to admit that if you will admit the truth. I doubt if there is a man on earth who is living in sin and wickedness, regardless of who he is, where he is, what he has ac­ complished, how wealthy or poor he is, how ignorant or how learn­ ed. ar what may be his standing with himself and with his fellow- men, that is pleased and satisfied with his life. I’m of the opinion that every sinner, ungodly, wicked person; that every person who leaves Cbiist out of bis life, and turns down the golden opportunl ties of the Christian religion, is dis pleased with himself. No doubt all along life’s journey be is. from time to time, displeased and disgus­ ted with himself, wonders at him self, and in his own heart crlls himself a fool, or feels and realizes that he is acting very foolishly and unwisely, **. ' s ibis cer tainlv characterizes atheists, agnos. tics and infidels; characterizes drun­ kards, swearers, profaners; edulter. ers and adulteresses; characterizes the piond, hangbtv. worldly, dis. honest, untruthful, criminal; char­ acterizes pleasure-seekers, highmin- ded, self-willed, self-se. king people. Are you keeping yourself the company of a dishonest person? Is it that of a puzzling, beer, wine and liquor drinker? Is it that of a tobacco slave? Is it that Oj a pro fane, vile-mouthed, wicked-hearted swearer or liar, rogne or rascal? Are you keeping youiself the com­ pany of a decritfnl, undermining, slv sinner? Are von keeping your, self the company of a hypocrite? How do yon like vourself?■: How do vou like to live with yourself? How do you tike vonr attitude to­ ward the Bible God. the Cbris- tien religion, the church ot Jesus Christ, your fellowmen, heaven and heil? If you are selfish, stingy, griping, knowing that you are a typical “tightwad,’’ how do you like this? 1« it a pleasure to yon? Do you commend vourself on it? Do you feel happy about it? Of course you want happiness; then do yon get it out of your deep- seated selfishness and stinginess? Are von a money grabber? Is mon­ ey your god? Then how do you like this? Haw do you like your self in regard to this trait of heart, mind, soul and spirit? Is it in vour haart to get all yon can, keep all vou can, and give as little as you can? Is it in your very heart and nature to crave the world ot money and material things, and get all you possibly can, and give ont as little as yon can get by with? Well, who will get it when you leave here? Uaybe your ungodly children will fnss and quarrel over it, law over it, hate one another over it, then die and go to hell over it. Yon are living with vourself Re member this. Yon will be living with vonrself as long as you live on earth, and then you will live with yourself, vonr soul, in eternity. Therefore yon are in for a long, long, long time of living with your, self and keeping vonrself company, even though yon may be living in tbe r.iidst of thousands and millions of others. Is it In vour heart—or toe feel­ ing in yonr heart—that everybody is for self, therefore you are prac. ticing it out in your life? Do you feel that everybedy is out to “do” you, or out-do vou, therefore yon are out to “do’, everyhodv else? Do you have a feeling in your heart that everybody are unreliable, and that everybody is for self? Well, if that is the wav you feel, I want lo sav it Is pathetic. You cer­ tainly feel bad. You are indeed keeping yourself mightv poor, un- dersirable, unpleasant company. Don’t fail to take into considera­ tion that God has some good peo­ ple on earth vet, even if you be­ long to the devil vourself. Thank God, not everyone is for self. Thyre are many vet who are for God and for the welfare of mankind for time and eternity. Praise God forever. However, you are living with yourself all along life’s trail. What kind of companv are you keeping yourself tbe company of the Chris tian? Are you keeping yourself tbe company of tbe saint? Are vou keeping yourself the companv of a deep praver life, a blessed peaceful life? Are you keeping vourself the companv of a deep prayer life, a blessed peaceful life? Are you keeping yourseit tbe com­ pany of the I. yaltv, kind, gentle, patient, liberal, honest, truthful, sober, righteous aad holy? Paul said to Timothy, “ Keep thyself pure.” (I Tim. 5:22), That cer- taiulv is wonderful and a marvel­ ous way to live. It is worth all it requires to live it. When one keeps himself pure be certainly keeps himself tbe verv best of com pany. Then he makes himself the very best of company for others to live with. Glory to God. It is worth a millions worlds. It is worth ten thousand times all that one gets out of living an evil, world. Iy, ungodlv, sinful, wicked life. It is far belter oftentimes to be alone with yourself, when vou are with God In heart, soul, mind and spirit, then be in company with those whose know not our God, but live in wickedness. You are living with yourself. It is up to you as to how vou lire. God is present everywhere to enable you to live godly nobly and sub­ limely, while the devil is every­ where present on earth to drag yon down on a level with him and bis followers, and to finally drag you dowin to hell How are you living? For whom are you living? Language can’t express how blessed and wonderful it is to live ior God nd the good of ali man­ kind, as well as tor one’s own wel­ fare for time and eternity. Snch living is as it should he, and as God wants it to be, by His wonder ful and glorintie grace. Hallelu- IabJ Living with one's self in tbe beautv of Christianity and holiness makes life wonderful, successful, happy and worth living a million times. It lifts one to the highest plane on earth, and shall bring one to God’s highest haven and richest reward in eternity, Then can he sit down with Abraham, Issaac and Jacob, and a'l the blood-washed sa’nts of heaven. | and with tbe beautiful angels, sing and shot and praise God as the ages of eternity roll, and shfne in the beauty of the redeemed. On the other hand, so many peo­ ple live such wretched lives, and keep themselves snch bad company, and make such bad company for others, until they are miserable in this world and shall be miserable iu the world beyond We see people are so irritable, peevish cross, sour ill tempered, ill. natured, fussy, qu rrelsnme, critical, full of fault, finding and mote-hunting, until they make themselves miserable, and make those with whom they live, mix and mingle miserable, too, until they want to get away from tbem. This ought not to be It certainly is not God’s plan and will for one’s life. God would heve us loving, tender, sweet, merciful, peaceful, kind, generous, meek, patient, bumble, gentle and Cbris like in our hearts, minds souls and spirits. This makes like to one’s self blessed, and likewise blessed to those with who we live, mix, min­ gle and asso date along life's path way. Amen, Well, you are living with your, self, Bear this in mind. You will be living with vourself forever. You can be a satnt'in your heart, mind, soul and spirit, or yon can he a demon. You cen have some of heaven in your inner and outer life, or vou can have some of hell. It is up to vou. bv God’s rich grace or by the power the devil has in vou and over vou. O beloved, yield yourself to unreservedly unto God until you will have heaven’s sweet­ ness in your very soul here on earth, and shall live in heaven’s sweetneS when you leave this world. This is the sanctified life.

Housing — I wo Years After Tbe story of the the three little brothers, the eldest only four years old, who were abandoned bv their parents who contd find no borne for them came out of Chicago re­ cently to disturb the whole Nation. Two years after V-J Dav the tbe greatest industrial nation on earth s struggling with a vast bousing problem which remains nn. solved. True, many families formerly houseless have found homes, al. belt at high purchase, building or rental costs—but there a re thousands of families as vet who have been unable to find adequate and proper housing The cost of home building have been characterized by some A merlcans as a national disgrace. Probablv that is a bid too severe, but it seems altogether too clear that exploitative elements have played their part in creating what The Washington. Star depicts as “tbe disgraceful bousing conditions w.hicb represent one of the strange anomolies of this age ” The anomolat lies In our ability, as a nation the production of so many nnique devices, machines, within price ranges that make them available to nearly everyone, while falling down nn the task of bringing the price of homes within the reach or means of the average citizen. A Congressional ^ommltte is trying to find tbe answer.

So have the shorter work ing week, material scarcities, gov. eminent restrictions, rent controls, the black market in materials, ex­ haustion of construction materials in the war effort, and plain profi­ teering. Whatever the true answers are, the truth remains that the housing situation is still a serious one No one needs a more graphic remind er of this than the one furnished by the desperate couple in Chicago, known to welfare authorities as well mannered and apparently in dustiious, decent persons, who left their children in a church with a note to the finders to please “take care of our kids and give them a decent chance.” Is America doing everything it can to give a “decent chance” to its mvriads of houseless families?

Flood-Proof Fence Used in Australia Lays Flat While Drift Wood and Water Pass A fence which bows before the onrush of flood w aters and lies flat while w ater and drift-wood pass over is being used in Australia. The posts are 33 feet apart and two wooden droppers are placed be­ tween the posts and another along­ side each post. The posts are bored with holes 4 inches from the ground end I Vi inches from the edge of the post, and another 3 inches from the edge. These posts are 6 feet long, B feet 6 inches above ground. • The droppers are bQred 4 inches from the bottom and then 6 inches, 7 inches, 8 inches and 11 inches, allowing the top barbed wire to rest on the side of the dropper, to which it is tied through the hole with tie wire. The droppers are 3 feet 10 Inches long. The bottom wire is reeved through the droppers and then through the posts. Each drop­ per near a post has a piece of wire passed around the top of the post, then around the dropper so th at-it will give way in flood tim e and allow the fence of droppers to col­ lapse. The bottom wire, 4 inches from the ground, holds the fence to the posts. After the flood has subsided, all that is necessary is to stand the fence of droppers upright again an<? attach it to the posts as before. How to Prevent Date With Big Farm Fire Thirty-five hundred farm ers who lived happily on their farm s a year ago are dead, largely victim s of their own carelessness. They de­ cided to "live” with fire hazards and lost. W ith them went alm ost 100 million dollars in farm prop­ erty. -------- i> In one year 18,000 fires started in newspapers, m agazines and other rubbish. Flam m able liquids, im ­ properly stored or handled, caused 26,000 fires. Electric cords and other defective electrical equip­ m ent caused 31,000 fires. Dirty This situation poses a num ber of<$- problem s for the nation, and also em phasizes the personal problem: The problem of growing old. Like m any of our troubles,, real or imagined, the best cure is to bring this one out into the light, give it a good shaking. The result in m any cases will be that it disap­ pears or that it shrinks to unimpor­ tance (if that w eren’t so, psychia­ try wouldn’t be such a highly re­ warded profession). Wise m en have known this for a long tim e and lived to a happy old age. Others (who J f rrk >. rJ didn’t know it) f ‘ have w o r r ie d their friends and them selves to early deaths, by sitting down and we e p i n g over their lost youth instead of getting up, le a rn in g to take old age in their stride and liking it. Recently I read a very up-to-date little pam phlet c a lle d “W hen You Grow Older,” w ritten in straightforw ard English, based on m odern, scientific ideas. The pam ­ phlet outlines m ethods which m ake that fam ous poem by Browning, so often regarded as wishful thinking by the skeptical, ring true. "Grow old along with m e,” said Brown­ ing’s Babbi Ben E zra, “ The best is yet to be.” When I grasped (he them e of this pam phlet, it stirred classic This farm fire could have been prevented if proper care had been taken. stoves, lam ps and lanterns caused 18,000 fires. Some 39,000 fires start- - ed on flamm able wood shingle roofs. Dirty chim neys were respon­ sible for 40,000 fires, and 50,000 fires originated in dirty and defective heating plants. ' The cures suggest them selves. If the farm ers will clean up the out­ buildings, farm m achinery and the fields, and be careful with m atches and smoking, there is little reason for worry about fire.

In 1945 when the population approached 140 millions, 9,920,000 persons were over 65. By 1970 there will be 16 million over that age, out of an estim ated population of m ore than 151 millions! Baakhage A v o c a tio n s H e lp T o R e ta in Y o u th Anybody can develop an avoca­ tion of some kind. In m any cases these avocations have turned into paying vocations after retirem ent. In any case they are literally life- savers when it comes to m aking life livable. Various skills perm it varying pe­ riods of activity. M any farm ers are self-sup­ porting at 70 or 75. Perhaps this is partly because of their environm ent-m ental and phys­ ical. Cicero says farm ers “ are not hindered to any extent by old age, and seem to m e to ap­ proach the ideal wise m an’s life.” Most jobs are of such a character that ability to perform them de­ clines with the years. “When You Grow Older” cites as an example “ speed work”—like the assembly line. Youth excels in this type of work. But age does alm ost as well as youth in the type classified as “power” work, the kind of job where skill is im portant. There is not space here to develop the them e of “When You Grow Old­ er” as its authors do so compactly in their 30 pages. They discuss the questions, personal and political, of old age security. They offer a host of other specific exam ples to illus­ trate the statem ents, some of which I have quoted here. I have attem pt­ ed to review rather than a sum ­ m ary, moved to com m ent partly be­ cause of the valuable suggestions offered, and also, partly because J u s t H a n g in g A ro u n d m em ories. I rem em bered that a gentlem an who considerably predated Browning had said the sam e thing in his essay “ On Old Age,” w ritten in the year 44 B. C. I refer to M arcns Tullins Cicero. He sa id , (am ong ether pertinent things) “ qui antem omnia a se ipsi petunt, eis ni­ hil potest videri, quod naturae necessitas adfera^.” Which, if yon’ll pardon m y Ireedom with the text, m eans that those who seek their happiness from with­ in can'never regard nature’s in­ evitabilities as bad. Cicero wrote th at essay when he was 63 years old and I have no doubt he would have lived w hat he preached for another decade or two if his vigorous old age had not produced the resounding "Phillip- pics” Against Anthony which re­ sulted in his being “purged” (Roman style) while still hale and hearty at 64. Like Cicero, M essrs. George Law­ ton and Maxwell Stew art, authors of the pam phlet I mentioned, stress the psychological problem s of old age. (The pam phlet is issued by the Public AEfairs Committee, Inc., non-profit, educational organiza­ tion, 22 E ast 38th St., New York City—20 cents.) Old age comes with a shock because we haven’t prepared for it. M aybe we are ready for the “ last day at the office” or at the work bench or when we sell the farm and move to the vil­ lage or city, or in other ways break a lifetim e’s routine. But we m ay have failed to recog­ nize “the need to feel im por­ tant,” a need which we m ust satisfy one way or another. Not “ im portant” in the sense that we have somebody kow-tow to us, but necessary to somebody, or som e thing, some business, som e undertaking, m aybe not a big cog, but something that helps the wheels of life go round. these pertinent paragraphs of “When You Grow Older” offer a per­ fect exam ple of how m odern sci­ ence and experience confirm the verities expressed by poets and philosophers of the past. It is still the habit of m any critics to praise the style of Cicero’s “De Senectute” but to toss its m essage aside as wish­ ful thinking. Even Montaigne, who said frankly that reading the essay “m ade one long to grow old,” pessim istically lim­ ited what he considered a useful lifespan to a m ere 50 years and thought it wrong to contem­ plate further existence. Cicero’s physical world .w as bounded by the frontiers conquered by Rome’s plodding legions but his view was long in tim e. Today the m en of our scientific age echo the request in the last paragraph of the great statesm an’s im m ortal essay when he prayed: “ . ■. . that you put m y words to practical test.” JUST A TUNE-UP CLIMB . . . M embers of the H arvard university St. E lias expedition are shown atop 12,000-foot Haydon peak in Alaska which they scaled just as a prelim inary m aneuver before tackling 18,008-foot St. Elias, greatest ice-covered m ountain in North Am erica.

N E W S R E V IE W Farmers’ Income Zooms; New Crisis Hits Europe FARM INCOME: Great Gain Latest round in a heavy barrage of statistics apparently destined to m ake the American farm er feel that he is an unbelievably fortunate m an was an agriculture departm ent report that the nation’s farm own­ ers are taking in m ore money than ever before. It was estim ated that total farm cash receipts during the first eight months of 1947 were 17.4 billion dol­ lars, a 21 per cent gain over the sam e period of 1946, itself a record year. The report said that the average farm operator realized a net income of $2,541 from agriculture and gov­ ernm ent paym ents in 1946, and this year farm income skyrocketed still higher as a result of continuing un­ precedented dem ands for produce. “An increase of. 24 per cent in prices,” w as singled out by the re­ port as the chief reason for the booming income. But the picture has another side —that of farm expenses. Operating costs continue to increase and, al­ though no estim ate was m ade for 1947, the farm er’s expenses w ent up 9 per cent in 1946. Nevertheless, if the agriculture departm ent’s esti­ m ates are accurate, the increase in farm income greatly outweighs the simultaneous rise in expenses. CRISIS AGAIN: Transfusion? Life these days. Secretary of State George M arshall has discov­ ered, is bounded on all sides by one crisis after another. No sooner had he returned to the U. S. from Brazil with the m utual Am erican defense treaty tucked safely under his belt than he was beset with calls for succor from debilitated Europe, which, appar­ ently, was sliding swiftly down the ways toward utter ruin. Insiders said the European situation really was desperate. U ndersecretary of State Robert Lovett had sounded the first alarm shortly before M arshall’s return when he said that Eu­ rope’s economic structare was cracking up faster than anyone had expected. The fear blowing in on the winds from Europe intensified. Precari­ ously balanced Britain rem ained at the heart of the trouble, but more grief was added by the news that bad weather had struck hard at crops in m any European countries this year. Most natipns had been forced to use their m eager produce for dom estic consumption rather than for export. There was no profit in that, they said. In the V. S., it began to appear more likely that a special session of congress would be called this fall to study the situation and perhaps set up the appa­ ratus for another economic transfusion to give strength to the weakening old world. BONDED Vets Cash In D raft tim e had rolled around again for millions of ex-G.I.s, but this tim e it was m ore in the nature of a bank draft as veterans all over the nation fell happily into line to cash their term inal leave pay bonds. Virtually every city reported that hordes of veterans had descended on banks in an unprecedented rush to convert their hard-won bonds into coin of the realm . Millions of form er Joes stuffed millions of dol­ lars into their pockets. W hat would they do with the newly acquired money? A few put it back into savings accounts; oth­ ers bought clothes, furniture and sim ilar necessities; much of it was squandered im m ediately. But one surprising fact developed: A great m any ex-G.I.s—family m en now— were using the store of cash to get out from under worrisome debts. For them it was a case of “ dire need.” ISOTOPES: V. S. Offer ■ Radioactive isotopes—products of American atom ic research—have been offered in lim ited am ounts to all foreign nations for use in m an­ kind’s world-wide and unending fight against disease. The gesture, m arking the first sharing of the fruits of U. S. atom ic ovens, loomed m ore significantly on the uncertain frontier of global peace than any loan or economic aid so far conceived. Described as the m ost im portant m edical research tool since the microscope, the isotopes—radioac­ tive form s of basic elem ents—are utilized in the sam e m anner as m a­ chine gun tracer bullets. Introduced into the body or blood stream , they can be used to trace life processes and plot the course of various dis­ eases. They are of param ount im por­ tance in current cancer research and one day m ay provide the clue leading to control and cure of that disease. $3,000 FOR TRACTO RS F a r m e r s C a u g h t b y B l a c k M a r t Gradually deteriorating prew ar m achines and im plem ents, plus a shortage of rural labor, are the two principal factors responsible for de­ velopment of a flourishing black m arket in farm equipm ent, accord­ ing to m anufacturers and dealers groups who have pronounced the sit­ uation fairly widespread. Secondary circum stances which support the existence of this partic­ ular black m arket are the unparal­ leled height of farm income and the apparent determ ination of the nation’s farm population to advance to new levels of mechanization. Thus, the dem and for farm equip­ m ent continues to be alm ost in­ satiable. Even the heavy, uninter­ rupted output of the entire farm equipm ent industry has failed to still the clam or of the hungry m arket. It has been common practice this sum m er for farm ers to pay huge prem ium s on such pieces of equip­ m ent as tractors, hay balers and corn pickers, all of which have cus­ tom ers on dealers’ waiting lists. Tractors priced at $1,000 have sold for as high as $3,000 or $3,500. Hay balers, which are used on hay three tim es a season and have other farm uses, have been finding buyers at double or triple the list price. Pointing up these m alpractices on the p art of individuals, one m anu­ facturer referred to the particularly bad black m arket in combines. “ When one w heat farm er, for exam ple, has his crop harvest­ ed, someone will drive up and ask him how m uch he paid foi his combine. The form er m ight say $2,040. When the stranger asks how m uch he would sell it for, the farm er, picking a num ­ ber out of the hat, m ight say - $3,000.

Choose fresh, hard, sound cabbage now and make kraut. Remove the outciue leaves, quarter, and discard cores. Shred and mix thoroughly with salt, one cup to 20 pounds of cabbage. Pack firmly in a stone jar or tight keg and cover with wooden lid or dinner plate which will fit down on the inside of the container. A jar full of water on the plate will.hold ,the kraut under the brine which forms as the salt draws the juice from the cabbage. Keep at a temper­ ature of 65 to 75 degrees Fahren­ heit and remove scum ea<-h day. Sauer kraut is cured and read; to can in from 20 to 40 days, depend­ ing upon the temperature at which it is kept. Pack into hot Bail jars which seal“with glass lid- or Donie Vacu-Seal caps. Should there not be enough juice to cover the kraut, add brine made by dissolving two table­ spoons salt in one quart of water. —--Photo courtesy Ball Bros. Co* Process 30 minutes in hot water bath. Sauer kraut may also be made bj mixing one scant tablespoon salt with one quart shredded cabbage and packing directly into Ball jars. Do not seal the jars yet. Remove the scum as it forms. When cured, then process 30 minutes in hot water bath. Seal the jars according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Bulk-cured krsut is superior in .flavor, texture and keeping qualities to that cured in jars. Canned Berries Need Little or No Sugar § > Many of the berry family will go into jars without sugar at all and keep perfectly for later use. If you want to be famous for delicious blueberry or huckleberry muffins, canning without sugar is preferred. To can blueberries or huckleberries for use in muffins, place two or three quarts of cleaned berries in a square of cheesecloth. Gather up the corn­ ers of the cloth and allow the ber­ ries to dip into boiling water until spots appear on the cloth. Then dip quickly in and out of cold water. Pack into hot Ball jars. Add neither sugar nor liquid. Process 20 min- ... y i>au Co. utes in hot water bath. Other berries, except strawberries and red raspberries should be heated slowly until the juice runs free be­ fore being placed in jars for pro­ cessing. If sugar is short in your household, can any berries by pro­ cessing 10 minutes in hot water bath after cleaning, crushing, and stew­ ing them in their own juice. If you have sugar, jams will, of course, us* less of your supply than preserves. When you are using corn sirup at part of the sugar required, remem­ ber to cook the jam a little longer* in small batches, and stir often* Illll IiW The P Davie Record Has Been PubBshed Since 1899 48 Years O th e r * h a v e c o m e a n d g o n e - y o u r c o u n ty n e w s p a p e r k e e p s g o in g .
