Applied to some 18,000 acres at a cost of less than $10,000, 2,4-D was ■ ' ' * * * * - V i w v John Pfingsten, Henderson, Ky., fanner, is pictured with piles of corn harvested from treated and untreated plots. The corn in the left pile was gathered from the treated field and had an average ear weight 23 per cent greater than that of the untreated com shown at right. given credit for saving the last com crop in that section. Fields treated with 2,4-D and later cultivated yielded 86.8 bushels of corn per acre as against a yield of 68.68 bushels per acre for a com­ parable field which had only been cultivated. The fields checked had been sprayed with butyl ester of 2,4-D applied by a low-gallonage method requiring less than a pint of the weed-killer to five gallons of water per acre. The increased yield in fields sprayed was attributed to the greatly lowered weed population. Similar beneficial results .can be achieved by hand-hoeing for weed control but the high cost of hand- hoeing makes this method impracti­ cal in most cases. Pull-Push Cart Discarded wheels and an axle from a child’s coaster wagon were used for this pull-push cart. The frame is made from ^-inch pipe- and is- welded to the axle, it is handy for moving loads of small tools or equipment as the cart is strong, light in weight and easy to pull or push. Value of Moist Mash Foi Poultry Questioned It is not necessary to feed a moist mash in order to maintain high egg production, says Washington State college. Feeding moist mash in­ volves extra labor and presents the danger of the growth of harmful mold and bacteria, especially dur­ ing hot weather. Hog Self-Feeder This New Jersey self-feeder for market pigs also may be used for brood sows that are suckling lit­ ters. Several different feeds may be supplied in separate compart­ ments, and the pigs choose the proportions and amounts of each. 1 One of the chief advantages of the self-feeder is the saving in labor effected, providing the feeder is large enough to hold several day’s supply of feed. L IN E S Still W rong * 'T 'WO YOUNG men had been in- vited out to dinner by their em­ ployer. During the course of the meal the conversation drifted into channels which got the young friends into rather deep water for them. “Do you care for Omar Khay­ yam?” asked their host, at one point during the dinqer, thinking to dis­ cover the literary tastes of the young men. “Pretty well,” the one addressed replied, “but, personally, I prefer Chianti.” The subject was abandoned, but on the way home the other said to his chum: “Why don’t you simply say you don’t Imow when you’re asked some­ thing you don’t understand? Omar Khayyam isn’t a wine, you idiot. It’s a kind of cheese.” Valuable Animal! A man arranged to have his aged mother cared for in a nursing home, where he visited her twice a week. Each time he brought her a special lunch of delicacies from the farm, including a thermos bottle of fresh milk in which he slipped a little brandy — on advice of the family doctor. The old lady always was de­ lighted with the lunches, and one day, as she sipped the milk, she said gravely, “Oh, Larry, don’t ever sell that cow!” SNAPPY RETORT I Dear Old Lady—Little boy, does your mother know you smoke? Little Boy — Does your husband 1 know you speak to strange men on ' the street? I WORTH WINNING A generous tipper at a hotel found a new waiter serving him breakfast one morning and said —Where’s my regular waiter, that boy called Mose?. New Waiter — Boss, Mose ain’t serving you any more. I won you in a card game last night. No Harm Done ! A man with a gun on his shoulder 1 was walking down the street with ' his dog. An automobile approached. The dog ran directly in front of the car and was killed. The motorist stopped and expressed his grief to the owner of the dog. He took a $20 j bill from his pocket and said: i “Here, take that. Will that pay fpr j losing your dog?” I “Oh, yes,” replied the man. “Ev­ erything is all right. I was taking him out to shoot him anyway.” New Chemieal Weapons To Combat Weed Pests Farmers and householders wag­ ing war on crab grass and other troublesome weeds and grasses can look for help from two new weap­ ons. The weed-killing chemicals bear the jaw-breaking names of sodium isopropyl xanthate and allyl mixed chlorophenyl carbonate. They have been tested by federal and state agricultural experiment stations "with excellent results against many weeds and grasses not eco­ nomically or satisfactorily con­ trolled by other chemicals or prac­ tices,” the announcement said. They are being used in active experimen­ tal programs but are not yet avail­ able commercially. The second-named herbicide is the one that combats crab grass, as well as barnyard, orchard and blue grass, cattails and similar plants. It has a hormone-like action which attacks the root structure of the weed and arrests growth immedi­ ately by preventing seed develop­ ment, even though no effect is ap­ parent on the surface for the first week or longer. It also is used^effec- tively in combination with 2,4-D against some broad-leaved weeds not affected by 2,4-D used alone. The sodium isopropyl xanthate is described as a "complete killer" which should be applied directly to crop plants. It shows promise for pre-emergence treatment, in spray or dust form, and has been used with success in the chemical weed­ ing of growing crops. Pig Iron Warrants Used As Trading Commodity In the early 1900s pig iron was traded as a commodity, like grain, sugar, coffee or cocoa. Trading in warrants on the produce exchange and through brokers entitled the holder to specific quantities of pig iron in storage. The practice grew out of the finan­ cial straits of small merchant blast furnace operators who could not afford to shut down during periods of dull business activity and thus were able to continue operations and secure cash for their.output by ar­ ranging for issuance of warrants against iron produced. Under this system the land at the furnace on which the pig iron was stored was leased to a storage com­ pany. The latter hired a yar-dmaster to guard the stores of iron and attend to shipments. The storage company would issue the warrants, usually representing claims against 100 tons or multiples of that amount of the iron in storage. Sale of the warrants to the first purchaser would provide the furnace with needed cash. Her Contribution The six-year-old came home from school to tell the events of her school-day world. Among other things, she breathlessly related that she had a long converstaion with ! her teacher. “Just what did you say?” asked her mother. The little lady proudly announced: “I said ‘uh-huh’ twice.” Seaweeds Used as Food Filipinos use a number of sea­ weeds or algae in their homeland and in Hawaii for food. Some 21 species of edible seaweeds are found around the small islands north of Luzon and also along the coastal region of northern Luzon. The Ho- canos,from this region make the greatest use of seaweeds in Hawaii. They do not relish all of'those liked by the Hawaiians. They like neither Iimu nor koku, considered by most Hawaiians to be the finest and most delectable of all. The seaweeds are gathered direct from the rocks on which they grow and, at certain times of the year when the waves break them from their holdfasts and wash them near the shore, they are gathered in great quantities in the shallow water. The carbohydrates of algae are not utilized by man as food but give bulk to the intestinal contents and thus stimulate the nor­ mal movements of the digestive tract. THREATENING GESTURES I I It was Jimmy’s first time at a con­ cert and, watching the antics of the conductor, he turned to his mother and asked: ; “Why is the man shaking his stick I at the lady on the stage?” j “Sh-sh,” pleaded his mother. < “He’s not shaking it at her.” I “Well, what’s she hollering for '• then?” f Rice as Poultry Feed Proves Satisfactory Whole and ground rice, rice bran and rice polish are excellent feeds for egg production and growth in chickens when they are adequately supplemented with vitamin A and reasonably free from rancidity. Whole rough rice proves to be a satisfactory substitute for whole yel­ low corn when included to the ex­ tent of 75 per cent of the grain feed and ground rough rice replaces ground yellow corn. Productivity Depends Upon Organic Matter The soil’s ability to pnoduce high crop yields needed to reed hungry millions depends on its organic mat­ ter supply. Soils rich in organic matter are good “sponges” for soaking up and holding rainfall for crops. Organic matter helps restore soil structure, improves tilth and helps plant roots get more nutrients from the soil.

Our County And Social Security By_ Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, Manager. Today, I have a message for all the wives of all the husdands who work for wages in employment which is covered under the Social Security Act. The message is e- qually important to the widows of husbands who worked In employ­ ment under Social Security. In our day-to-day work, we have found that too many do not know abou t . Social Secnrity rights which were earned and paid for by the Social Secnrity taxes deducted from the family breadwinner’s weekly or monthly pay checks. This tax pays for an insnrance policy with the Bureau of Old-Age and Survivors Insurance, This policy is payable to yon In case of your husband’s death if he has worked enough to be insured. If this unfortunate event should occur in your family, you should get in touch with our office. You may be eligible to receive cash benefits pay. ments. These payments are of two kinds-monthly benefits and a lump sum benefit. To illustrate the two types of benefits, let me tell you of an act­ ual case which was recently hand­ led by our office. A lady.w hom I shall call Mrs. Black, came into our office. She stated that her husband bad been killed while working on his job and that she had been Iett with two children to support-age 8 and 1 0 Mrs. Black was very wor­ ried about the family’s future. She said that her husband bad carried only a small amount of insurance, and that the funeral expenses bad taken most of that. We examined Mr. Black’s record of earnings, and were happy to be able to inform Mis. Black that she and the children were entitled to montbly' payments of $5 5 .5 0. If there bad been no minor chitdren, Mrs Black would have been enti- t'ed to a lump-sum payment; and at the age of 6 5 , she would be en­ titled to monthly payments of $22. 5 0 for the rest of her life if she bad not remarried. You should contact our office lo­ cated 4 3 7 Nissen Building, Win- st< n-Saletn, N. C., in the event of vonr husband’s death. Payments :ifn be made only three months re­ troactively. ' For example, if your claim is not filed until 6 months after the death of your husband, you would lose 3 months’ pav- men's. Claims for Iutr p-sum death payments must be made' within 2 years after the death of the wage earner. _______________ Everybody wants a government that can operate without taxation and yrt give the people the bene­ fits pf modern times.

REVOLT: B ogota It was a peaceful early afternoon In Bogota, Colombia, and the inter- American conference was droning along in customary style in the capi­ tal building on the' Plaza Bolivar. Then, with the firing of four assas­ sin’s- bullets into the body of Jorge Elicier Gaitan, popular leader of Colombia’s Liberal party, one of the worst revolts Latin American has seen exploded into violence. During the first afternoon Bogota descended into a state of complete anarchy. Mobs prowled the streets, burning and looting. Scores were killed. The residence of President Ospina Perez was attacked and win­ dows were broken before army troops drove away the crowd. Above the confused clamor of the throng could be heard shouts of “Down with the government, down with the Conservatives.” Three days later, as the riots sim­ mered to a halt, 300 persons were dead, many others injured. Down­ town Bogota was a welter of de­ struction. Colombia had broken re­ lations with Soviet Russia, and the inter-American conference had al­ most cracked up, with delegates un­ certain as to whether they could con­ tinue. ' On the face of it, the revolt was a sudden eruption of violent senti­ ment of Liberal party followers against the Conservative govern­ ment in power. Immediate result was the formation of a new coali­ tion cabinet, equally composed of Liberals and Conservatives. Big question was how much Com­ munists had to do with the Bogota riots. U.S. Secretary of State George Marshall, who with other Americans in Bogota got through the riots un­ scathed, claimed the revolt was Communist: “The occurrence goes beyond Co­ lombia. . It is of the same definite patterns as the occurrences which provoked strikes in France and Italy." And the Colombian government, m severing relations with Russia, de­ clared that a “Communist insurrec­ tion” had touched off the mob fury. Finally, it was announced from Bogota that the inter-American con­ ference would resume “so that Com­ munism could not triumph over Co­ lombia and the rest of the nations of the hemisphere.” SETTLEMENT: Coal Strike John L. Lewis wasn’t exactly in the position of a man who had asked friends out to dinner and then found he couldn’t pay the check, but he was verging on some such situation. Half a million soft coal miners started to straggle back tc work after a 28-day strike when Lewis in­ formed them that the fight for $100- a-month pensions had been won, but Lewis himself had to appear before Federal Judge T. Alan Goldsborough to answer a contempt of court charge. Lewis was cited for contempt by Goldsborough, his 1947 nemesis, on the grounds that he ignored an April 3 court order to call off the strike. Apart from the contempt of court citation, settlement of the coal strike was distinguished mainly by a slightly marvelous amalgam of po­ litical action and expedient compro­ mise. Beginning of the end came when Speaker of the House Joseph Martin (Rep., Mass.) moved into the dis­ pute by persuading Lewis and Ezra Van Horn, a mine operator, to meet with him in his office. Martin then suggested that Sen. Styles Bridges (Rep., N.H.) be named the third member of the board which admin­ isters the miners’ welfare and re­ tirement fund. (Lewis and Van Horn are the other two members.) At a subsequent meeting of the three, Bridges proposed a plan that would give $100-a-month pensions to 62-year-old miners with 20 years of service who retired after May 28, 1946, the date on which the miners’ welfare fund was set up. Bridges’ plan was accepted and the strike called off. Actually, Lewis, in approving the New Hampshire senator’s proposal, had descended several notches from his original demands. Politically, the most fascinating aspect of the affair was how Joe Martin managed to take the play away from the administration in arranging for a settlement.'' Ou W isconsin In his South St. Paul home Stas- sen griwaed with the comfortable cheer of a cat who had just swiped all the cream in Wisconsin as he sat with his wife and received re­ ports stating that he had run off with 19 of the 27 delegates in that state’s primary election. PRIM ARIES: W isco n sin Wisconsin’s presidential primary election to choose delegates to the Republican national convention in Philadelphia on June 21 was regard­ ed, as usual, as a straw in the wind; but this year the political breeze was a shifting one. For Harold Stassen, ex-govemor of Minnesota, a hard, thorough cam­ paign waged by himself and his volunteer supporters up and down the state paid off nobly when Wis­ consin voters granted him a total of 19 of the state’s 27 delegates to the GOP convention. Gen. Douglas MacArthur took the remaining eight to run a poor sec­ ond, despite a flamboyant publicity drive carried out by his backers (notably the Hearst newspapers) which was built around the theory that he is “the only man equipped to deal with Russia.” Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York drew a complete blank in Wis­ consin, where he had been the Re­ publican favorite in 1940 and again in 1944. As a result of the Wisconsin elec­ tion, Stassen was catapulted into public consciousness as a leading contender for the Republican nomi­ nation. It was certain that his top- heavy victory there would be reflect­ ed in the other primaries to follow, and that he had gained considerable stature in the Midwest. It was difficult to tell which of the two losers—Dewey or MacArthur —had been hit harder by his defeat. Dewey, who received no delegates, might seem to be in a position simi­ lar to that of Wendell Willkie in 1944 when he withdrew from the GOP race after losing ignominiously in the Wisconsin primary. But the New York governor previously had beaten Stassen in the New Hampshire pri­ mary, and, also, he had the full slate of New York delegates pledged to him. It was on MacArthur, who had claimed Wisconsin as his home state, that the axe of public disfavor appeared to have fallen with great­ est force. ' M ore T o C om e From Wisconsin the election yeai wind swung to the plains of Nebfaska where seven leading contenders in the Republican presidential race fought it out in a free-for-all match, with Stassen again emerging as the big winner. After Nebraska the battlefield shifted to Pennsylvania and Massa­ chusetts on April 27. A total of 108 delegates to the GOP convention was at stake. On May 4 Harold Stassen was to carry the fight to Sen. Howard Taft’s ' home arena,. the state ' of Ohio. It was no secret that Taft was wor­ ried over which way his fellow Ohio­ ans might go, and a good showing by Stassen would hamper materially Taft’s'- White House ambitions. In his second pitched battle with Governor Dewey (New Hampshire was the first) Stassen was slated to invade Oregon for that state’s GOP primary on May 21. While results of the Oregon primary were not ex­ pected to be conclusive, they would serve to provide a first sampling of West coast opinion. Final state presidential primary on the Republican side occurs in California on June I. EDUCATION: Nearly half of the 5,245,000 World War n veterans who entered special education and training programs under the G.I. bill of rights have abandoned their courses, Veterans’ administration says. ; More than 400,000 completed their ; work, however—382,000 of them ! under the G.I. bill and the rest under the rehabilitation program for dis­ abled veterans. Many of those that quit plan to return later, it was indi­ cated. Gasoline from Coal Gasqjline made from coal, even when it comes into general use, prob­ ably will cost more than petroleum gasoline, but at least motorists won’t have to worry about shortages, a re­ search soeentist, Dr. R. W. Krebs of Baton Rouge, La., has predicted. He estimated that coal, gasoline will cost from 10 to 15 cents more a gallon than gasoline currently in use, but he added that the supply will be enough to last 1,000 years. The Good Samaritan A CRIPPLED BEGGAR was push- ing his wheel chair along a rainy Washington street. The pavement was wet. Crossing the street, the rubber tires of the wheel chair slip­ ped, finally stalled at the curb. The chair wouldn’t budge. A stranger, hurrying through the drizzle, stepped over to the wheel chair and gave it a push. The cripple wiped his face with a soiled service cap and thanked the stranger, who asked where he was going. “To Union station,” was the reply “to get out of the rain.” The well-dressed stranger offered to push the wheel chair to the sta­ tion. “We’ll go there together,” said the stranger, pushing the wheel chair ahead of him. “Work for the government-”’ asked the cripple as they proceed rd.“Yes.” “Veterans administration-” ’“No.” “Where do you work?” persisted the wheel-chair passenger, “Over in the court.” “Which court?” ‘The supreme court.” The beggar twisted his head around for a good look at the man who was pushing him through the rain. ‘Which one are you?” he asked, realizing at last that his escort was one of the nine most potent judges In the land. The man who had rescued him was Justice Harold Burton. Probably no one would have heard about this incident, had not the crip­ ple, privately skeptical, turned up next day at the supreme court and demanded to see Justice Burton. After a long session with the mar­ shal, the man in the wheel chair was ushered into Burton’s chambers and visited once more with the judge. * * * Memo To Senaior Taft: WHILE YOU AND I are in fre­ quent disagreement, I have consider­ able admiration for your courage and tenacity. May I therefore present for your consideration a problem of vital importance to all of us. As you know, the administration now is planning to embark on a gi­ gantic arms program, including thousands of jet planes, new rocket- launching guns, submarines that can carry rockets close to enemy shores,-• new airplane carriers which can launch bombers, fast merchant ships powerful enough to outrun subma­ rines and thousands of steel-consum­ ing guided missiles. While this program may not all be adopted, yet if only half of it— including the aviation program which you yourself favor—is adopt­ ed, it will result in the greatest inflation this nation ever has seen. Already we face a steel shortage. Already our railroads are hard up for freight cars. Automobiles are still short in supply. The manpower shortage still handicaps many in­ dustries. Electric power is so low in the West that California is on day­ light saving. In other words, with the nation's economy already running at top speed, the army and navy have ask­ ed for 14 billion and are reported ready to ask for 10 or 11 billion more. I for one suggest that, as a start toward mapping’out a sound domes­ tic economy, we call in Bernard Ba­ ruch, Donald Nelson, Leon Hender­ son and the others who kept prices down and allocated war materials, and ask them to chart a new course to head off the oncoming hurricane of inflation.» • » Cargo Planes and War WHILE THE PENTAGON BOYS emphasize importance of the draft, the national defense research and development board has written a con­ fidential report urging the need of an armada of cargo planes. In this age of blitz warfare, supply lines must be swift and flexible, which means America must build up a vast merchant marine of the air. The report emphasizes the grow­ ing threat of Russian submarines which could make sitting ducks of our ocean transports. Russia’s un­ derwater navy already is five times larger than the German U-boat fleet at its peak, the report states. What’s more, Russia possesses the deadly German XXI which is “60 times more difficult to locate and kill” than standard World War H subs. The present strategy of digging in and stockpiling material at forward bases also is rejected by the research board. “Targets should determine the location of bases, not vice versa,” the board argues. “The need for maintaining the base should cease when the target is destroyed. Ad­ vance bases should become as ex­ pendable as shell cartridges.” This means construction and sup- >ly should be cut to a minimum, and sir transport must become the back- :one of supply. , “Although World War II strategy •vas determined largely by the avail­ ability of shipping, in the next war the availability of air lift will be the controlling factor,” the report declares. peace never has been maintained except by ‘balance of power’; men are ‘fighting animals’ and so on ad nauseam—(pardon the Latin but Roman senator belonged to one of my ancestors.) Now I, with my race memories—can recall more of them which have worn thin and been dis­ carded than your species (which I doubt will have a very extended destiny) ever will have. “Just an example. With little ef­ fort, I can recall some of the silly shibboleths which made trouble for some of my ancestors. It was back in the stone age, just about the same time when we canines decided Man had reached the point where-he was ready for adoption and training in civilization. “At that period in pre-history we had advanced to the point where we hunted in packs instead of singly. Our policy was still kill and let be W a s h i n g t o n D l p e s t / M u ff (a D o g ) H a s H er I d e a s A b o u t th e N o b ility o f M a n By BAUKHAGE News A nalyst and Commentator WASHINGTON—There is nothing particularly , strange about a dog guarding a batch of milk cans like the one in the accompanying photograph. You wouldn’t be too surprised to be told th at the dog knew who should collect the cans and who shouldn’t; to hear about other dogs who go to the store w ith a shopping list, bring back gro­ ceries and even steaks in the basket they carry; and you know all about the wonderful “Seeing-Eye” dogs which not only guard their m asters from harm , but often appear to sense danger’s approach.

I was digesting my sssp dinner while Muff, my wire - h a ire d fox, was removing the last vestiges of her share of it from her beard. She was lolling in front of me on the flat topped porch- p o s t, her favorite resting place. She finished her toilet, flopped her chin on one paw facing me and winked — or so it seemed in the fading light. A robm was sounding the last sleepy cadences of his vesper song from the recesses or an ancient maple. I looked at Muff. She looked back and smiled beneath her whiskers — or so I guessed she might be doing. “If I had the patience,” I said half-aloud, “I could teach you to talk.” “Oh, no you couldn’t!” I could almost swear Muff had responded. She certainly had opened her mouth. I let my imagination run on. “Oh, yes I could,” I re­ plied, pretending she could under­ stand me. “You’ve got the brains. How do you know that when I take my briefcase, I’ll be back in the evening and when I take my suit­ case, I won’t be back for several days? You DO know, because you show it very plainly: briefcase, a couple of wags and a woof; suitcase, body-wiggles, plaintive arfs, up- jumping and hand-licks.” I went on cataloguing the obvious indications of Muff’s intelligence, which far surpasses that of many loquacious human acquaintances. As I talked on, Muff rolled over care­ fully (there was just room for it on her perch) and yawned. Not -because she was bored, as I was to learn later, but because praise of this type always embarrasses her. She will wag herself wagless at a “good dog!” for some stupid, fetch- and-carry trick that even a Boston terrier could learn, but when one praises her intellectual achieve­ ments, it always embarrasses her and she tries to hide it. “Well,” I insisted, “It’s true you are intelligent enough to talk.” Then I was puzzled. Distinctly, though in a breathy voice which sounded the way a dog does be­ fore he has quite decided-to bark, I heard an answer: “It isn’t that I am not intelligent enough. And it isn’t that dogs will never talk, but I’m afraid I shall never learn.” I’m dreaming, I said to myself, but no. There was Muff, there was the outline of the maple, dim now as the darkness gathered. There was I. I shut my eyes. I’ll handle this rationally, I said. Just let things happen. I relaxed and was less sur­ prised to hear the soft, breathy voice continue: “It isn’t that there’s any­ thing wrong with my speech center in the third, left convolution of my cortex—but, I want to repeat, that dogs never can learn to talk. . . ." “Gently I opened my eyes. Muff was sitting up now, her head cocked to one side, her mouth, or at least her jaw, moving a little, because even in the crepuscule I could see her beard wagging gently as she went on: “Because, as you may know, we canines, and I believe this applies to other animals as well, have far clearer race-memories than human beings. You sometimes mistakenly refer to these memories as intuition. That is nonsense. Given a set of circumstances, any half-witted pooch or over-bred show-pup, immediately knows what to do. “We canines picked man as a friend and were probably one of the great factors in his domestica­ tion, largely because we found him more malleable than any of the other fauna. And I think we have done a good job. We have not been harsh masters. We may be ovcr-sentimental at times, bnt you with YOUR maudlin sentiment, you frequently interpret sound, practical loyalty, motivated by a high moral sense, as a slavish devotion. “But I’m digressing (the voice went on)—what I would like to bring to your attention is this business of race memories. You men have •some, too, and you have something else—traditions. They don’t go back as far, but they are part and parcel of the same thing. Only many of your traditions lead you into trou­ ble. In the last few months, while you thought I was asleep, I’ve heard you and jour high-brow friends use phrases like, ‘always been wars’; “We canines picked man as a friend and were probably one of the great factors in his domestica­ tion.” killed although some of us had dis­ covered its fallacy. We also had a long list of so-called hereditary en­ emies, and next to the apes, Man led them all. “I don’t know how many cen­ turies it took to revise that list, and accept Man as a friend. A pretty stupid and cruel friend, to be sure, but one who could be trained. There was one saying, I believe, which was very popular, but which the more enlightened canines knew was nothing but an old females’ tale. It went: ‘Don’t trust a man any farther than you can smell him.’ You would realize the force of that if you knew how far you used to smell. “There was another saying: ‘The only good man is 'a dead one, and even then you’d better let the jackals taste him first.’ I could go on end­ lessly. It took an awful lot of work to explode those myths. Almost as long as it did to get some of the cruelty out of Man. We’ve gone a long way in that direction, as you know. In another 10 or 15 centuries I wouldn’t be surprised if we got you to treat each other, as well as most of you treat us. Your wars! Ugh! That shouldn’t — and wouldn’t —happen to a dog!” At this point I sat up. Muff al­ ways had been faithful, obedient, anfl Jl thought not only my true frienl, but also my respectful and humble servant. And this was going too far! . Why this was impertinent. My own dog, talking like that! I must have spoken out loud, for I heard something that sounded like a laugh. “Now don’t try to bust your leash,” I heard her remark. “After all, if you think I’m your dog, okay. Some­ how I feel that you're my man. So let's let it go at that and we’ll both be happy. “I didn’t mean to run on like this and I didn’t mean to get dog­ matic. I just wanted to say that I know my limitations. I can’t talk. But if it’s in the canine cards, my descendants will. It took several thousand years to kill the race memories whicb would have dictated that I take a nip out of your calf instead of licking your hand. And, there’s hope for you, too. Maybe progress is just around the corner—” There was a sudden whoosh, a flash of gray in the night, followed by a parabola of fur as Muff left the post in one leap after the neigh­ bor’s cat which by now was snick­ ering at her from the maple branch. Muff came back. She gave me a hang-dog look and remarked through her whiskers. “That is one race- memory that I can’t eliminate.” “And by the way,” she added, “Don’t mention this. conversation. Nobody will believe you if you do." Easily Built Children’s Giraffe’s Neck Slide Do you feel tired, jittery, in need of a vacation?

Editor Carl Goerch, of The State, Raleigh, says that he never heard the expression, “Making tongue and buckle meet,” until he read it in The Davie Record re­ cently. Carl wasn’t living in these parts when Joe Caldwell was edi­ ting the Charlotte Observer, Rufe Clark the Statesville Landmark, and J. F. Click the Hickory Mer­ cury. For 55 years we have had a hard fight trying to make ton gue and buckle meet. It means keeping the wolf from the door: trying to pay your debts and eat three times a day—in other words, to keep out of the “poor-house.” Be ashamed, Carl! A Correction In the statement of Bank of Davie, which appeared in our last issue, we had the loans and dis­ counts listed as $3,715.53, when they should have been listed at $607,023.17. The furniture and fixtures were $3,715.53. W e are glad to make this correction. School Attendance Shows Increase The schools of Davle County show an average daily attendance higher for the first seven months of the current year than the aver­ age daily attendance for a corres­ ponding period in 1946-47 school year. This year the average daily attendance by schools for the first seven months was: Mocksville, 657; W m. R. Davie, 137; Farming­ ton, 269; Smith Grove, 180; Shady Grove, 425; Cooleemee, 655; Col ored schools, 605. The total in­ crease over last year was 39 for the white schools. Indications are that the schools will have a heavy enrollment next year and new classrooms will be­ come and absolute necessity at that time. Arnold V. Smith Arnold V.

First, the .pumber of beds we wish to build a hospital to accomodate. Second, a bond issue for the hospital. Third, the name for the hospital. The Federal and State Govern­ m ent put up $78.40, and the Coun­ tv put up $21.60 for every hund red dollars that it takes to build this hospital. It is up to the peo pie of Davie County to say wheth er they want to accept this great opportunity. To build a twenty bed hospital gt a cost of $160,000, Davie Coun­ ty would have to pay $34,560.00, To build a thirty bed hospital would cost $360,000, and Davie County would have to put up $77,760, and we can go ahead and build a larger hospital under the same plans. AU the citizens who are interested in building a hos pital, and all those who are op posed to building a hospital, are asked to meet with us on die date as set out above. B. C.

In Alabama, the lowest age at which children may be employed was raised by the 1947 legislature from 14 to 16 years, except in domestic service or farm work. The work week for children who work after school was short­ ened from 48 to 40 hours. Massachu­ setts strengthened its 16-year mini­ mum work age by abolishing special permits which allowed some chil­ dren under 16 to work in industry. In Illinois, a law passed in 1945 set­ ting 16 as the minimum work age became effective last year. Three states meanwhile took action in the relatively untouched area of regu­ lating child farm labor. Connecticut set 14 as the minimum age for farm employment and decreed a maxi-, mum 8-hour day and a 48-hour week. New York continued wartime legislation requiring 14 and 15 year old children to get permits to work on farms after school or during va­ cations. Ohio also tightened regular tions covering issuance of farm work certificates. Uncle Sam Says Take your place in ihc Parade to Security!

AMERICA’S SECURITY IS YOtTR SECURITY!U. S. Treasury Department Microwaves Demonstrate Nature of Light and Radio Microwaves, made famous by ra dar, provide the teacher with the simplest means of demonstrating the nature of light and radio waves C. L. Andrews, New York State Col­ lege for Teachers, told the conven­ tion of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Light waves are a hundredth of a hairs breadth long. To observe wave effects in light, the student must squint through a microscope eyepiece into some ingenious de vice. Radio waves are a few thou sand feet long. To study their wave effects, a laboratory the size of the state of Texas with a roof IOO miles high is required. Wave effects of microwaves are man-sized, conveniently spread out on a laboratory table to be meas­ ured with an ordinary ruler. With the aid of a hand-sized transmitter and a hand-sized intensity meter, reflection, refraction, interference, diffraction and polarization of waves are to be demonstrated. Fading of radio signals due to in­ terference between the direct wave and that reflected from the Ken- nelly-Heaviside layer is simulated with the transmitter and receiver a few feet apart and a wire screen used to represent the ionosphere. Viking ‘Wineiand’ Landing Placed in Massachusetts A possible location of the Viking "Wineiand” was a t the mouth of the Merrimack river in northern Mas­ sachusetts, is the conclusion reached by Dr. John R. Swanton, Smith­ sonian institute, after an intensive study of the Icelandic sagas. Dr. Swanton brings to the identi­ fication of the Norse landings in North America about the year 1000 the experience of a lifetime in re­ constructing the trail of De Soto across the southern United States. Wineiand was the southernmost of the temporary Norse settlements. The sagas leave little doubt that it was a well-wooded country where wild grapes were found and where there was an abundance of grain. Furthermore, the landing was in the mouth of some tidal river which, a little way inland, broadened into what was described as a lake. The mouth of the Merrimack, he found, checked better with the confusion of often conflicting data than any other site along the New England coast. Other Norse landings most probably were on the southern coast of Labra­ dor, where there is a general agree­ ment of the topography with the confused descriptions.

Then, think about these facts: By joining the Payroll Sav­ ings Plan where you work and al­lotting just 53.50 a week for Uniied States Savings Bonds, you will ac­ cumulate $1,440.84 in 10 years. Mil­ lions of my nieces and nephews are learning from experience that they can own an even greater amount of Savings Bonds through this par­tial payment plan. In the event yon are self-employed, automatic bond buying is available to you through the Bond-A-Month Plan at your bank.O'. S.

Treasury Departmeui In Y o u r i n t e r e s t | DOROTHY DIX, noted newspaper .columnist and counselor to millions of Americans, says: "The best advice I have ever given in my long life is the advice I give Americans now; that is. keep buying and holding U. S. Savings Bonds because they will insure your future happiness. Any home with Savings Bonds is certainly a better home than one without Savings Bonds. I can truly write about the merits of Savings Bonds in the family relationship, be­cause bonds are really very per­ sonal in their nature. Savings Bonds eventually become the things we hoDe for. whether it is marriage, a new home, childrents education orplain leisure. * U. S.

The bene­ fits which result to the individual and to his family will go far to strengthen our democracy, for the strength of each individual is a measure of the strength of the Na­tion.

Be An “Engineer in Good Eating”—Do Home Canning! Simple Instruetiont Based on Seienee You may not have a degree as an engineer, Mrs. Housewife, but when you’re home canning you’re using scientific principles just as surely as a mining, chemical, electrical or other engineer. That is, if you fol­ low glass jar manufacturer’s instruc­ tions, for they are based upon scien­ tific discoveries made over a period of a century and a half. Back in Napoleon’s time, a Paris confectioner, Nicolas Appert, set out to find a method of food preserva­ tion -and win a 12,000-franc prize offered In 1795 by the French gov­ ernment. Napoleon, like Frederick the Great, believed an army travels on its stomach, and the folks at home got hungry and discontented too! Nicolhs won the prize, after 16 years’ work, but his methods and equipment have been greatly im­ proved upon. He labored under many handicaps, not knowing a tempera­ ture beyond boiling is required for processing some foods and having to design his own glass jars. Not until 1860 did Louis Pasteur e-tab- Iish the fact that microorganisms are responsible for food spoilage. Four­ teen years later, an American, A. K. Shriver of Baltimore, invented the “retort” or "pressure” cooker. In 1858 John Mason patented the Mason jar with neck designed for receiving a screw' type cap. The Mason jar with porcelain-lined zinc cap is an old reliable. Mason would probably be astounded by the 1947 cap for sealing the Mason jar. This new style cap is a two-piece metal affair with a Dome lid which has sealing compound on the under side and is tested for seal by pressing on the center of the lid with the finger. Sealing with the Dome lid is made doubly sure by the new type metal band which bears down on the lid at three pressure points. Also reliable in seal is the light­ ning type jar with rubber ring, glass lid and wire bail. Many scientific experiments and jar improvements have perfected pro­ cesses for today’s home canning and it is upon them that instructior.3 yon will find in reliable home canning lit­ erature such as the Ball Blue Book are based. Follow these instructions and you become an "Engineer in Good Eating”—much to the benefit of your family’s health and increased pleasure at the table provided by de­ licious home canned foods.

It is well that Brotherhood Week brings brotherhood to our minds. But brotherhood is more than a legal precept embodied In a bill of rights or an intellectual conviction crystallized in a creed. It is rath- er a feeling of the inestimable worth of human being, simply be­ cause he is a human being, which <s founded deep in a man’s heart and actuates all his daily dealings in his fellows. Those who lack it are not altogether alive. Those who have expressed it best, tbeir words have lasted a longtim e. Tertullian, for instance, observed that “ throughout the world man is one, though his voice be various ’’ And Terence said: “ I am a man and so I think that nothing human can be a m atter of indifference to me.’’ But it is not a blind adulation of humanity and is quite consistent with cynicism when one compares what man does with what he is. Mark Twain, who was once accus­ ed of prejudice, said: “ I have no class prejudice, no race prejudice, no prejudice of any sort. AU I want to know about a man is that he is a human being. H e couldn’t be worse." The essence of brotherhood lies in liking people because they are people. Signs of Spring A Yadkinville school teacher was talking the other dav about some of the problems she had to face in tbe daily process of pouring know- ledge into Her students. “ I have no less than six boys and girls in my toom who have * crushes’’ on this many other students in high school here,’’ she said in a weary tone of voice “ These six don’t even know wbat’s going on most of the time, I can give a lecture on some sub­ ject and when I've flnisbed they won’t be able to tell me a single word I’ve said. “ They are always looking out the windows or the door to see if they can glimpse their boy or girl friends, and the result is tbey are barely passing tbeir work. I don’t know whether I should go and talk with some of tbeir parents or not. They may not appreciate it," she said. “I sympathize with you,’’ I told her. “ I ’m glad somebody does,’’ she replied,—Yadkin Riffle. DoYouReadThe Record? Scientists Trace E r Old Fossils Probed for o: Man's Crii-;-.'i. BERKELEY, CALIF, - Fr1-- tists poking throu.«h 40 ml year-old layers of earth in A ir.- believe they are getting clone to t.h; origin of man. Their search may lead them baC 70 million years, an J even then mat not yield the final evidence. L-.n their chances for throwing nc" light on human ancestry appear o be better than that of any previ­ ous expedition. They have probably the greatest, aggregation of scientific know-how, manpower and equipment ever to tackle the fossil records of the dark continent. This is the University of Califor­ nia’s African expedition. It is made up of 30 or more scientists and tech­ nicians, scores of native workers, army, navy and marine personnel, the navy tankers Aucilla and Ala- gash and nearly 3500,000 worth of equipment. Digging in Desert. The expedition has the support of the Egyptian government; Marshal Jan C. Smuts, South African pre­ mier; Adm. Chester Nimitz, Rear Adm. Richard E. Byrd and Lt. Gen. James H. Doolittle. It has set up to sweep Africa for almost its full length, from Cairo to Johannesburg. The project got under way last fall. In the Faiyum desert, 50 miles southwest of Cairo, one arm of the expedition is digging for addition­ al traces of the oldest anthropoid ape which lived about 35 million years ago. At Taungs, near Johannesburg, another branch of the expedition is seeking fossils of a man-ape which lived somewhere between 500,000 and 1,500,000 years ago. The Faiyum party will move southward by truck and plane along the Nile river through the Sudan and Uganda to set up another headquar­ ters at Nairobi, Kenya Colony. Formations around Lake Victoria and Lake Tangyanyika will be worked and the party will move southward again through Rhodesia to South Africa, joining the other arm near Johannesburg. The expedition will return to Berkeley some time this fall. Thereafter it will take months, perhaps years, to prepare the findings. Leads Expedition. Wendell Phillips is expedition leader. The northern arm now is seeking evidence which may orient the 35 million-year-old Faiyum ape; technically called propliopithecus, or some closely related form, into the direct lineage of man. Propliopithecus (pronounced pro- plio-pith-e’-cus) was a small, primi­ tive ape with a jaw only about an inch and a half long, but he had at least one manlike quality — his teeth had the same general struc­ ture as those of humans. He must have inherited that fea­ ture from his ancestors. Hence the scientists must look still farther back for the beginning of human evo­ lution. Charles Darwin, who sponsored the theory that man and monkey had a common ancestor, believed this forebear of all primates lived in Africa in the Eoce ie period, about 70 million years ago. If Darwin was right, the Califor­ nians will have to dig deeper than the Oligocene period deposits of Faiyum to find the evidence. Bacteria Tamer to Remove Odor From Limburffer Cheese CHAMPAIGN, ILL. — They’re go­ ing to take the smell out of Iim- burger cheese. Stewart L. Tuckey, University of Illinois professor of dairy manufac­ turing, announced a new scientific process to make limburger cheese taste good without smelling that way. “The outcast of cheeses doesn’t need to be spurned any more,” Tuckey said. “It can be deodor­ ized.” He promised that the new non­ smelling limburger cheese would be­ come an accepted dish in society for the first time since it was made in Limburg, Belgium, several cen­ turies ago. It will become one of the most popular dairy products,' he pre­ dicted. Contrql of bacteria will do the job, Tuckey said. He explained that all cheeses are made with vari­ ous types of microscopic organisms. “Under the old system, we just put all kinds of bacteria in the cheese and some stunk up the place. Now we just put in the unsmelly kind,” he said. Pasteurized milk with 99.9 per cent of the bacteria removed, he said, will be used to make the new improved limburger. . - S f, .--- L , •* , V -.-,--V-y lAP is f c s He Knew B etter D ! WAY of research, a gentle- J man decided to ask representa­ tive nationalities all the same ques­ tion to compare their answers. The question propounded to each in turn was the following: “What would you take to stand all night in the pouring rain?” The Englishman answered: “I should not like to do it for less than a guinea.” The Scotchman answered: “What would you be willing to pay?” The Frenchman bowed politely and answered: “I should be happy to oblige you, but at the moment I have another engagement.” The Yankee replied: “I’ll take a dollar.” The Irisman came back with: “An’ sure, I think I’d take a cowld.” Getting Back The head of the bus company called in his new driver. “You drove a bus all day today,” he stormed, “and didn’t have one customer. What happened?” The driver shrugged indifferent­ ly. “I just didn’t have any passen­ gers, that’s all.” “You mean to say no one waved at you?” “Oh, sure,” said the driver. “Peo­ ple waved at every corner, but I wouldn’t stop for any of them. Why should I? They didn’t notice me when I was out of work.” AT THE CORNER TAVERN? “Henry!” “Yes, dear?” “There’s a corner torn off your pay check.” “Yes, dear?” “Well, what did you spend it for?” DUGAN, ALIAS DEMPSEY “What is yonr name, please?” asked the precinct worker. “Maggie Dugan.” “And your husband’s name?” “Dugan, like my own.” “But what is his full name?” “Well, when he’s full he thinks he is Jack Dempsey; but when I take him in hand he’s still Du­ gan.” Protection Wanted Wee Babette had been sleeping in a room with a night light, but her parents decided she must learn to sleep in the dark. “Do I have to sleep in the dark?” she asked when her mother turned off the light for the first time. . “Yes, Babs,” replied mother. “You are a big girl now.” “Well, then,” asked Babs, “may I get up and say my prayers over again—more carefully?” Should Have Crashed Boss—What are you doing here?

East Shown on Decline Southern and western sections of the United States are gaining over the East in the splitting of the ipelon called national income, fig­ ures compiled by the U. S. depart­ ment of commerce disclose. Al­ though the central states have shown a small decline in their pro­ portionate share of income pay­ ments, the nationwide shift that has been progressing for the last two decades has placed them in a stra­ tegic position. The far western states, which had 8.5 per cent of the aggregate income payments to in­ dividuals in 1929, obtained 12 per cent and the northwest and south­ west stajes also showed increases. States in the southeast climbed from 10.5 per cent to almost 14 per cent in the same period. arm Heavy Crops Drain Soil of Plant Food Mineral Supply Needed To Restore Fertility Heavy wartime croppings drained twice as much nitrogen from Illinois soils as was put back by fertilizer applications or legume crops, de­ clares O. L. Whalin, University of Illinois. What was true in Illinois was true of farm soils in numerous other Midwestern states. Approximately 3,300,000 tons of ni­ trogen were removed from the soil in harvested crops in the 1942-46 period, Whalin points out. But only about 1,500,000 tons of nitrogen were returned to the land. This replace­ ment included nitrogen in fertilizer applications, plus 60 per cent of the nitrogen in legumes harvested and in Svyeet clover turned under. The supply of other mineral ele­ ments was seriously depleted. Whalin estimates that only about half of the phosphorus taken from the soil was replaced. Less than one- thirtieth as much potash was added through commercial fertilizers as was removed by harvested crops. “This heavy drain on the soil’s mineral supply,” says Whalin, “has reached the point where crop yields on many soils definitely depend on the amount of minerals applied. Ma­ nure, inoculated legumes, phosphate and potash are required, will main­ tain and even increase yields on most soils.” Carrying out such a program, he adds, calls for use of lime on much Rich West Virginia mountain lime plant. Lime is sold to the farmers to increase production on crop and pasture land. of the land in order to grow leg­ umes. Lime should be applied on the basis of soil tests. It should be used from six months to a year be­ fore legumes are seeded, in order to sweeten the soil. D sep -R o o ted L eg u m es Deep-rooted legumes work in two major ways to improve tilth, re­ build soil structure and increase the supply of mineralized organic matter.

Neither wa­ ter nor air can penetrate such com­ pacted soil. Crop roots cannot do their job of carrying nutrients to the plant growth “factory” above ground. But when deep-rooted legumes/ are grown frequently in the rotation, tilth and soil structure are improved. The land becomes loose and easy to work. Channels for air and water and passageways for the roots of following crops are made. 2 Deep-rooted legumes are effi- • cient feeders on the soil’s avail­ able phosphorus and potash. They can forage for these plant foods when other crops will fail. The legumes gather Uiese nutrients into their taproots. When plowed under, these roots put all-important min­ eralized organic matter down where it should be, readily available for the roots of other crops following in the rotation.

Our County And Social Security By Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, Manager. A few months ago a friend of mine came to our office. H e said he bad read my articles urging people to visit our office when they reach 65, or when some relative who had a social security card has died, but that he didn’t belong in either category. He said be was only 61, and had no intention of retiring after he reached age 65 , but he would like to know about the benefits his wife and child might receive if he died. During our conversation, he made quite a few notes and said they would be help, ful to his wife. I told him that bis wife should call at our office to file a claim in the event of his death. Quite a few people come to see us every day about benefits which may be payable several years in the future. W e are continually giving benefit information to new workers who come to see about getting so­ cial security card. However, in the case of my friend, it was only a short time after his visit that I noticed a newspaper article telling of his death. Naturally I recalled his foresight In getting all the in­ formation his widow would need to collect her payments promptly. The widow didn’t come to see us, and we didn’t hear from her at all. I couldn’t help wondering why, and finally telephoned to re­ mind her that she had only a Iim ited time to file a claim without losing some of her payments, since we can make retroactive payments for only three months prior to the mouth ot filing a claim. She told me her husband had mentioned bis visit to our office, and had told her about the retirem ent payments he m ight get, but that he didn’t mention benefits she and the child might receive in the event of his death. She had assumed that ev­ erything would be handled by our office, and eventually she would receive any money she was eligible to receive. I’m not so sure that situations of this kiud are not happening much more'often than you realize. If you could sit in our office and hear w<dows tell us that tbey came to see ns because a pastor, an employer, a friend, or an undertaker suggest­ ed it, you would begin to wonder why more of them do not say they came because the husband always told her to check with as if he should die. Many husbands know about social security, but they haven’t told their families. They should do so at once.

The next tour of Radio City begins in approximate­ ly five minutes,” piped the charming hostess as she handed the tour tickets to Bob Johnson. Only two' days remained of the week for which Bob had saved all year. Vacation in New York—gosh! It had been wonderful . . . Coney island, Grant’s tomb, Statue of Lib erty, Central park . . . meals in Greenwich village at the “Captain’s Bell,” and the night in Chinatown. Only two things remained on Bob’s schedule—a night ride on the Staten island ferry and this tour of Radio City. Bob was 25, tall, blond and tagged as the rugged type by the home­ town bobby soxers. After his grad­ uation from Mascoutah high school, he had gone to work at Carl May- hew’s filling station and garage. Everyone in the Illinois town said that Bob was a bom mechanic. Al­ though Bob had been to nearby St. Louis many times, he always had longed to come to the big city. Now his dream visit had blossomed into reality, but it was drawing rapidly to an end. In 36 hours, he would be on the Pennsy speeding westward once again. “But it sure was worth it,” thought Bob, as he joined the group of 14 or 15 people which had gathered in the mezzanine foyer of the RCA building. He only casually noticed the girl who seemed so deeply en­ grossed in the showcase full of modeled hands of eminent NBC con­ ductors. He had been looking at the unusual display only a few moments when the petite tour guide called. ' “Please step forward to the ele­ vator, folks. I am Helen Barry. We’re happy to welcome yon to Radio City. In the course of this tour, we shall visit the studios, show you the inner workings of radio and conclude by attending an actual broadcast of the Fred Waring show. “Now I think it would be nice to know your names, and especially where some of you are from. We’ll let you begin, sir,” she said as she pointed to the portly man in the vanguard of the little group. “We’re Mr. and Mrs. Albert Fisher from Cedar Rapids, Iowa,” from the dignified gentleman. The others dutifully chimed in. “Elmer Petersen, St. Paul, Minn.” “Eloise Miller, Altoona, Penn.” “Bob Johnson, Mascoutah, 111.” “Mr. and Mrs. Mark Brown and sons, Gary and John, Chicago.” “Anne Strong, Vandalia, 111.” Partly because she came from nearby Vandalia, but more because of the soft, resonant quality of her, voice, Bob turned quickly to inspect the young lady thus identified. As he looked into her self-confident, smiling face, he remembered the young lady whom he had noticed while waiting for the tour to begin. Her round face with its even, pleas­ ing features made him think of Illi­ nois, somehow. It seemed that she was symbolic of the wide, sweeping prairies of his home state—almost a breath of refreshment in the crowded elevator. As the group emerged from the cage after a rapid ascent, Bob crowded ahead among the others until he reached Anne Strong. “Miss Strong," he stammered, “I overheard you say you were from Vandalia. I’m from Mascoutah, and I’ve been to Vandalia lots of times.” “Yes, Bob, I heard you say you were from Mascoutah,” answered Anne casually, as though she and Bob had been friends for years. “Are you enjoying your visit here in New York?” she continued. “Oh you bet!” replied Bob. “I’m going back tomorr—” “If you will step this way, please, we will enter the sound effects de­ partment,” interrupted the guide at this point, and Bob didn’t quite finish his sentence. “Please observe, and I shall dem­ onstrate how sounds are simulated with the most simple devices,” the girl continued as she entered a glass- enclosed booth. “For example, to create the soupd impression of a trotting horse, we simply take these half cocoahut shells and clap them together sharp- gether. Each seemed to be deeply engrossed in his own thoughts. “Now we shall televise some of you,” the guide announced, “and you can observe how you might ap­ pear on a television broadcast.” “Would you like to be first, Miss,” she asked, indicating Anne. “Oh . . . I guess so,” replied Anne, stepping forward. As he watched .her enter the en­ closure under the glare of the lights for the television view. Bob again was. aware of the undertones of feel­ ing created by Anne’s vibrant per­ sonality. He couldn’t help but note Anne Strong recognized that the remote flutter of excitement within her was due to tliis young man rather than the wonders of radio. ly. The plop, plop, plop comes through your radio at home just like the trotting hoof-beats. If we wish to make your mouth water with the sound of frying eggs, we need only crinkle bits of cellophane before the microphone. “When we wish to reproduce tele­ phone calls, we use the filter micro­ phone . . .” The voice droned on and on, but Bob had lost interest in radio. He was infinitely more aware of the slim young lady at his side. Her arm had brushed against him as the group crowded forward to watch the sound demonstration on the other side of the glass partition, and Bob was shaken by the tremour of ex­ citement aroused by this brief con­ tact. Anne Strong, too, recognized that the remote flutter of excitement within her was due to this young man rather than the wonders of radio. When Anne left Vandalia, she had decided never to return. It was such a provincial little town, she thought, and she felt sure she couldn’t stand spending the rest of her life there. Of course she knew that one didn’t go to the big city to achieve fame like a Horatio Alger hero; but at any rate, she would be free from the petty gos­ sip and restrictions of small town life. Anne ' was considered the best beautician in Vandalia, so she was quite confident that she would ex­ perience no difficulty in finding work in New York. But for a few weeks, she planned to “see the sights” be­ fore going to work. Only this very morning, she had decided to see Radio Gtiy. As they left the sound effects’ room and moved along the corridor toward the television demonstration, Bob and Anne walked silently to- B e e a u s e S e m e t m e j i a s J a l t h I n M e G race N oII Crowell.

Then Anne was back at his side. “How did I look, Bob? Was I ter­ rible?” she inquired. “You were wonderful!” said Bob, and Anne seemed to understand and interpret the feeling in his voice as genuine. “When are you going back to Vandalia, Anne?” asked Bob, as they followed the group along the corridor. “I wasn't planning to return to Vandalia . . . ever.” AU the elation seemed to drain out of Bob when she answered. For the swiftly moving machinery which carries us so rapidly into the future already was busily at work creating fantasies for Bob. Across the miles, his thoughts had planned how he would borrow Carl’s car to drive to Vandalia to see Anne. But Anne wasn’t going back; she was staying in New York. “That concludes our tour of Radio City. I hope you have enjoyed your view behind the' scenes in radio,” came from the girl guide to jerk Bob back to reality. Turning to Anne he asked: “Since I’ll probably never see you again, how about celebrating my last day in New York with me? It can be your farewell salute to Illinois.” Anne said, “O. K., Bob, what’s on the schedule?” Somewhat sheepishly, Bob told her his plans, and they set out together. They visited the art museum, lunched at the open air restaurant in Central park, shared a bag of popcorn at the Bronx zoo and en­ joyed dinner in a Slovakian restaur­ ant below Third avenue. They brought the happy day to a close with the ride on the ferry. As they walked slowly toward the hotel where Anne was staying, she asked quietly: “Where do you live in Mascoutah, Bob?” “Since Mother died,” replied Bob, “I’ve been living in two rooms over the garage where I work. I batch. It’s not a bad place. There are five rooms there, but I use only two of them.” “I just wondered,” said Anne, “thought I might like to send you a postcard some time. It’s been great fun today, Bob. You’re the first person in New York with, whom I’ve felt really friendly. And you had to come all the way from Illin­ ois.” She paused as they drew near the hotel entrance. “I hope you have a nice trip home,” she continued as she ex­ tended her hand to him in a fare­ well gesture, “Thanks for a very nice1 day!” “Gee, Anne, I had a swell time,” said Bob. “Glad I got to know you. Maybe we’ll see each other again some time, who knows.” They were both silent for a few moments. Then Bob shuffled his right foot around before he said, “Well, so long, Anne.” Anne noticed the ' droop of his shoulders as he shuffled off down the street. Two weeks later, Carl came into the garage and* shouted to Bob: “Hey, Bob, who do you know in Vandalia?” Bob looked up somewhat sur­ prised, asking, “Why?” “Letter here from Vandalia for you, and it looks like a female’s handwriting to me,” bantered CarL “Ummm! Smells good, too.” Before he looked at the trim hand­ writing, Bob knew that a certain beautician had decided that the big city wasn’t so good after all.

Cool Mine Owner Attributes Wealth to Penniless Days PITTSBURGH. — Jtanmy Lynch, wealthy coal mine owner, believes the reason he*s worth $75,000 to* day is because he was flat broke 10 years ago. If he hadn't been penniless, Lynch claims, he never would have bor­ rowed money and bought 65 acres of bottom land, from which he hoped to make a few dollars by selling the top soil to property owners. Underneath the top soil Lynch discovered one of ’ the best seams of coal for strip mining in western Pennsylvania. Lynch bought the top soil land tor. $3,000. Engineers found the hidden vein held 600,000 to one million tons of coal, and estimated the mine could be. worked for four years, with a $75,000 return to Lynch. Blind Section Hand Uses Wife's Eyes To 'See' His Work Young Woman Began Working On The Railroad During the War Period K A N S A S C IT Y , MO.—Mary Alonge, who stands over five feet tall in men’s work shoes, admits that her job as a section hand with her blind husband is the best work she’s ever had. A broad grin lights up Mary’s round, smudged face as she tells about her work of cleaning out box­ cars at the Rock Island dump yards here. , Shoveling dirt, unloading whatever debris has accumulated in the cars, wielding a pick in cold weather to loosen frozen ground, all are part of an eight hour daily shift for Mary, who’s been employed here for five years. Working constantly beside the young woman is her husband, Joe, tall, slender and dark, who needs her with him because of failing eye­ sight. Physicians who have exam­ ined Joe have given no hope that his sight will ever be improved. "If he could see better, he would be doing something else. Well, we both work,” commented Mary. Since a railroad yard isn’t exactly the place for frills, this stocky woman wears men’s overalls, a leather jacket and an old wool scarf tied around her head. Mary began her job during the war, when all the railroads, desper­ ate for help, first began hiring women as laborers. Her husband, who had been rejected by the army because of his almost sightless eyes, was employed at the yard doing piecework. One day Joe’s boss came around and asked him if his wife wanted to work. Mary went down the next day and “never quit." Tliere were about 40 women in the yards then,’ cleaning tracks and doing other labor for­ merly done by men. Most would quit or lay off when cold weather came along. Today, only one other feminine worker, a switch oiler, is still there. Mary and Joe each earn 94 cents an hour, which brings their week’s income to $90.24. And they are sav­ ing as much as they are able—what with doctor’s bills and increased prices—so they can buy a little house. They have long dreamed of it. Buy U. S. Savings Bonds!

First Family In This Town Is Actually Safety First CHECOTAH, OKLA.—When lo­ cal residents talk about the town’s “first” family, they aren’t, referring to the mayor, police chief or any other political big shot. Chances are that they’ll be talk­ ing about Dr. Safety First, Sr:, or his son, Dr. Safety First, Jr. The Christian names of the two doctors are not nicknames. They were christened that, way and have been the butt of numerous jokes ever since. To minimize the confusion, the slogan-like Firsts have adoped one method of shrouding their identity.

Four major advantages are cited: ■1 Cover crops protect the soil ■t ■ from August to May. One- fourth of the annual soil loss occurs during this period. n Well-fertilized legumes and “ • grasses add organic m atter to the soil that helps resist erosion during the May and June period. This is the time when one-half of the annual soil losses occur. 0 Cover crops add nitrogen to the soil, especailly when legumes are a part of all the mixture. / The yield of corn will be slightly *’ increased in the year following tire seeding of cover crops. Research workers have developed a plan that licks the problem of seed­ ing the cover crops. Just before Good field of corn secured from proper plant food. laying by the corn, they broadcast the seed with an endgate seeder. Weeders are attached to the culti­ vator to help cover the seed and better growth results. Clover and Alfalfa Need Limed, Fertilized Soil Sweet clover and alfalfa will do a good job of increasing the soil’s sup­ ply of nitrogen and vitally needed organic matter if they are well fed. Legumes are heavy eaters of phos­ phate and potash. They thrive best in a soil that has been limed to cor­ rect acidity and to furnish calcium ^BETTER JOB O.M W=LL-FSO LE6UMES PO VfTH UME. PHOSPHATE S- POTASH When legumes get a full quota of heeded nutrients they will pro­ duce top results. That was shown in Newton soil experiment field in II- lionis. The accompanying chart sum­ marizes results. Sweet clover grown on soil that had been limed and fer­ tilized with phosphate and potash produced 63 pounds more nitrogen and a ton more organic matter per acre than that grown on soil that had received only lime. Another advantage of well-fed legumes comes in improved soil tilth. The sturdy tap roots of well-fed sweet clover and alfalfa drive through plow sole compactions ar.d push mineralized organic matter deep into the soil. They open tight ,soil to air and moisture. The added organic matter and better tilth 18 to 25 inches deep enable crops follow­ ing in the rotation to make more effi­ cient use of the plant food available in the soil. Increased Production Of Butterfat Required Dairy farmers whose average an­ nual production per cow is only 6,000 pounds are operating on a bare subsistence figure, it is pointed out by Howard O. Selby, general manager of the United Farmers of New England. It is not unreason­ able to suggest that an annual pro­ duction per cow of 7,500 _ pounds would be possible and that it would yield an economic level more nearly in line with other groups in the na­ tion, he adds. Cleanliness Emphasized 1 In Treating of Wounds Horses under treatment do much better at pasture than in stables,^ ii the weather is suitable. If sick horses must be stabled, quarters should be clean and well-ventilated. Be gentle in dressing wounds, chp closely or shave the hair around the wound and make sure that no dis­ charge from around the edges is car­ ried into the wound. Proper drain­ age of the wound must be assured.

Malachi reveals the dark picture of unrequited love, polluted offer­ ings, impious priests, unfaithful husbands. You wonder if Sam Jones has come back tq life. He begins by crying, “The burden of the word of the Lord to Israel by Malachi.” We shall miss the entire mean­ ing of this lesson if we fail to read every Dr. Newton word of the Book of Malachi. We cannot claim any of the promises of a better day, as indi­ cated in the latter section of Malachi unless and until we deal with such- hypocrisy as may infest our lives today, even as the priests and peo­ ple were consumed with iniquity when Malachi prophesied unto them, . * * GIVING OUB BEST TO GOD 44 A SON honoureth his father, and a *- a servant his,master; if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear?” Malachi 1:6. How can God bring good out of evil, when his people hold back their best from him? Let us bring it closer home, and ask, How can our earthly parents do their best for us, when we give them half-hearted allegiance?* # * OUR BEST IN WORSHIP PASSAGES in the first, second and third chapters of Malachi reveal the lack of sincerity on the part of the priests in the worship which they offered and which they taught the people to offer. Here we see that unclean hands can never bring an acceptable offering unto the Lord. He looketh on the heart. He knows what is in man. Using the house of God to make a show before men was one of the shameful evils of the priests in the days of Malachi. It did not fool God then, nor will it fool him today. Unless our worship is an expression of something fine and sincere, he will not accept it. * * . THE DAY OF BECKONING <4 T l EHOLD, I will send my mes- D senger, and he shall prepare the way before me; and \he Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in . . . But who shall abide the day of his coming?” One would think that such words of warning would have brought the priests and the people to their senses in humble contrition before God; but they continued to disregard the words of God’s messenger. “For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble; and the day that cometh shall burn them up, .saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.” . Thus did God warn. And the day of reckoning did come—a day in which priests and people went down beneath the chariot wheels of the invaders. And once again the warn­ ings of God, though despised, were fulfilled to the last word in the terrible punishment upon those who forgot him.V * V THE PROMISE TO THE FAITHFUL BUT God does not forget those who truly love him, and thus the Book of Malachi closes with the words of promise to the faithful. “But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall,” Malachi 4:2. The remnants of those who re­ mained true to God in the midst of a wicked generation were used to perpetuate his witness in the earth. The dark days of persecu­ tion could not put out the light of his presence and peace. Let us pause as we study this Book of Malachi and search our own souls, lest we be guilty of the hypocrisy which destroyed the peo­ ple in the long ago. With every strand of strength which he grants us, let us do with our might what our hands find to do, and the peace that passeth all understanding will be our portion. “And all flesh shall see the sal­ vation of the Lord.” • * * » (Copyright by the Interaatzonai Couodi oI AeIigious Aducatioa on behalf of 40 Protes­tant denominations.

What is the best to use on it to keep it a light color? Also, what can I use to fill the nail-holes so they, won’t show. ANSWER: All plywood, except fir plywood, can be given a thin coat of white shellac thinned half- and-half with denatured alcohol. Then two thin, even coats of paste wax are applied and, when each coat is dry, it should be well rubbed. Another method is to finish with a penetrating wax or two coats of top-qjiality, quick drying varnish. If fir plywood is used, it should be given a prime coat of a special kind of preparation which “flattens” the grain of this particular kind of wood for a smooth finish. After the prime coat is dry, the wood can be finished with wax, varnish, shellac, paint or enamel. Nail holes can be filled with wood putty colored with an oil stain to match the wood.

Driven nearly frantic by itching and burning of simple piles, that keep' you fidgeting in discomfort?Countless sufferers are finding un­told relief from such distress by bathing tender parts with the pure, gently-cleansing lather of Resinol Soap—then applying soothing, skil­fully medicated Resinol Ointment. Why don’t you try this time-tested easy way to long-lasting comfort? RESINO l0S QUESTION:' I have bought an eld house that has wooden gutters with metal linings. The linings have rusted through from lack of paint. Could I paint over the metal with some of the new-type waterproof paint? ANSWER: If the metal has rus­ ted through, I believe it would serve no purpose to retain it. If you can remove it without too much trouble, you could paint the wood gutters on the inside with liquid asphalt paint, and the outside with a good house paint. If there are spaces at the joints, cover them with roofing cement and roofing felt, then paint over the felt with asphalt paint. FATHER, IF YOU READ THIS come back to us. Mom’s not cross at you any more.

C., MAY 12, .948 FInoride for Dental Caries Accumulated evidence to date suggests three methods of caries control by use of fluorides, accord­ ing to Francis A. Arnold Jr., Na­ tional Institute of Health. First, in­ creasing the fluoride concentration of public water supplies to an opti­ mum level, I ppm. F. Second, by topical application of more concen­ trated fluoride solutions. Third, by increasing fluoride ingestion through daily dietary supplements. The first method, fluorination of water sup­ plies, now is being subjected to ex­ perimental verification in numerous communities. Topical application of fluorides has sufficient clinical evi­ dence at the present time to recom­ mend its judicious use by tire dental profession. There is no direct scien­ tific evidence with which to evaluate the use of tablets containing fluoride as dietary supplements for caries control. Hens Laying- More Eggs The American hen today is re sponding to better care and man­ agement by laying 15 per cent more eggs annually than she did at the beginning of World War II. This re­ markable rise in annual egg produc­ tion per bird from an average of 134 in 1940 to 154 now is due largely to the increase of better breeding stock, employment of sound man­ agement techniques, advances in disease control and greater use of scientifically balanced feeds. Such is the conclusion reached by poultry nutritionists and other authorities, who point out that this new record was accomplished despite many war-imposed shortages that necessi­ tated constant changing of formulas to maintain feeds in proper nutri­ tional balance. Hottest Spice Family More than 50,000 tons of spices are consumed annually in rthe United States alone and the most popular spice is black pepper which was discovered as an unattractive wild vine in the jungles of the Malay peninsula. Both black and white pepper come from the same plant— the white comes from the less pep­ pery, inner parts of the berry. Hun­ dreds of other types of peppery, hot plants are much hotter to the taste and easier to grow but the popular­ ity of black pepper on the modern table remains unchallenged since I long before Columbus set out to find ’ a faster route to the spice-bearing East.

C Uncle Se 2ii Says Fish With Legs Members of the Australian coun­ cil for scientific and industrial re­ search engaged on an oceanograph­ ical cruise discovered a fish with legs, in the deep waters off the west­ ern Australian coast. It has two hind legs, walks along the bottom of the ocean, and was netted during trawling operations in Shark bay. The fish is about five inches long. It has two fins on either side of its body. The fins apparently are used to maintain balance while the fish is out strolling. Members of the party have described it as resem­ bling a miniature swordfish. Bland Synip Uses For more than five years a bland, very sweet, amber-colored syrup made from apple juice, developed at the U. S. eastern regional re­ search laboratory near Philadel­ phia, has been used as a humectant in cigarette tobacco, originally as a substitute for glycerine. It has a number of other potential commer­ cial uses as an ingredient in both food and non-food products. Indus­ trial tests have demonstrated the value of apple syrup in the manu­ facture of cork closures, pharma­ ceuticals, dentifrices and cosmetics. For ase in the last three types of products, it has been found neces­ sary to reduce the normal calcium content of the syrup to a minimum by use of ion exchangers, because calcium is incompatible with the oil •and fat ingredients in such products.

Every calf lost due to mismanage ment or disease, before it gets into full production or reaches market age and weight, is a terrific financial loss and a waste of feed. Steps to assure the best possible calf crop begtn with the proper care and feeding of the pregnant cow. Good quality hay, balanced with min­ erals, vitamins and proteins, is es­pecially important. Dehydrated hay contains plenty of Vitamin A, for in­ stance, but little Vitamin D. In pro­ viding minerals, it should be kept in mind that not only calcium and phos­ phorus, but also supplemental iron, copper and cobait, are necessary in some localities. The local veterinar­ ian can usually advise as to which mineral deficiencies exist in any area. Clean maternity stalls are im­portant, too, to give calves a healthy start, and reui.ee the danger of joint ill, scours and pneumonia. These same troubles can be caused also by failure to properly disinfect the navels of new calves and keep them away from contaminated premises. Calf pails should be cleaned thor­ oughly; milk is an excellent place for germs to grow and multiply. If pos­sible, the colostrum (first milk after birth) should be saved nd fed to the calves. Colostrum contains needed vitamins and helps build res .< tance to infection. Besides following sound manage­ ment and feeding practice-, the calf raiser should be alert for signs of disease, and - prompt steps if they appear.

This practice may serve to start fresh outbreaks. In ail cases, one precaution is vital. Carcasres of anthrax victims must be dispose- of, quickly and thor­ oughly. by complete burning. And the rcrco.is doing the job should use ! every precaution to avoid exposure, i Human beings can readily contract J anthrax by careless handling of sick ‘ or dead animals. j When a suspected or known case I of anthrax appears the first thing i to do is to call the veterinarian.

When my song begins to sing Heaven seems so very near. And this is the grandest thing To uplift with peace attd cheer, Keeping me from sinking down Underneath life’s heavy load, And from losing harp and crown Up in heaven’s blest abode. When my song begins to sing, Hallelujah! Satan flees, Till it seems that heav’nly spring Softly 8oats upon the breeze, And that Jesus whispers low: ‘‘I will lead you through the strife To the home where Christians go, In the Glory Land of Lite.” Horse Sense Greenville, “Common horse[sen. se” as exemplified by a Greenville horse isn’t so common. Thehorseis Dinah, a four year old mare. A Greenvill construction com­ pany man—Howard Miller—has owned the Tennessee Walker for 18 months. During that time be has taugbt tbe intelligent horse al­ most fifty tricks. Here are some of the tricks Dinah can perform: Scribble “notes” on a pad by holding a pencil in her month. Flip a light switch on and off. Tell her age by giving tbe right number of hoof beats. Untie Mr. Miller’s shoes, take off his hat and pat it on his head. Wipe her master’s face with a handkerchief. Dance the waitz and Mr. Mil­ ler says sbe is learning the mys­ teries of "cooch" dancing. Kneel as though praying. The Greenville borse has been performing publicly since her de­ but at a horse show in Atlanta last May. Mr. Miller is not a professional animal trainer. Howeve. he has had previous success wltb a dog, a ouck, and a vearling bull. Rich Harvest Some wonderful crops have been harvested in the United States in recent years, but there are reliable statistics for the richest of them all that gathered by confidence men. Police records and newspapers are full of successful swindling schemes, but only a small part of them are ever reported, most vic­ tims stoically pocketing their Ios- ses, being ashamed to admit that they were gullible enough to be gold.bricked. Most of them indeed deserve lit tie sympathy because they are real­ ly victims of tbeir own greed. They fall for the lure of rich quick profits. They expect to get some­ thing for almost nothing. Thereis one simple rule that will save many a heartache. Never trust strangers with your money.—Ex. Now is the time to|sub- scribe for The Record., — j Homemade Weighing Bin Speeds Work Device Aids Automatic Feed Handling Setup It is an old saying that all farm equipment was first thought of by a farmer. Whether that saying holds true may be questioned. But it is certain that much of it did come into being as the result of ideas which some farmer had concerning ways to improve and speed up the performance of his various chores. A pertinent example of this fact is shown in the accompanying illus­ tration. It shows a homemade weighing bin, which was conceived by a Midwestern farmer for use with his automatic feed handling setup. -It holds several tons of feed and is fixed to the ceiling by a series of heavy springs and turnbuckles, one spring being located at each corner of the bin in the center of two turnbuckles. Tension on the springs moves a pointer across a scale at the bottom of the bin to indicate weight up to 3,200 pounds. A slide gate at the bottom of the bin permits feed to spill out into a cart in desired quantities. The bin Home-made “weighing bin,” built by Midwestern farmer. is placed below a chute leading from a two-ton mixer in the barn mow. The entire setup operates as follows: Whole grain is blown into an overhead bin, from which it flows into a blower-equipped hammermill on the first floor. Ground grain is blown back into the mixer and then drops into the weighing bin. The mixer and grinder are operated by five-horsepower motors, whereas the whole grain is blown into the storage bin by tractor power. Automatic Egg Washer Prof. F. B. Wright demonstrat­ ing the new egg washing machine developed at Cornell university. The device makes it possible for two persons to wash, dry and pack five cases of eggs an hour, five times as fast as the same jobs could be done by hand. As most poultrymen and their wives spend from two to four evenings a week cleaning eggs by hand, this ma­ chine will result in a big saving in time. Formula Computes Feed Required for One Hen High egg production clearly takes more feed, but just as clearly the feed brings a greater return in terms of eggs Uian the same amount-fed to low-producing hens. Dr. L. E. Card of the Illinois experiment sta­ tion explains how to compute the total feed required for one hen for a year: Multiply the live weight of the bird, in pounds, by 8. Add 25. Divide the total number ,of eggs the hen lays by 7 (e. g. 105 divided by 7 equals 15) and add this figure to the total obtained by the first two steps. An example: Weight of hen—5 pounds. ' Five times 8 equals 40; plus 25 equals 65. Hen lays 105 eggs per year. Di­ vide this figure by 7. Result 15. Tptal feed required — 80 pounds. (65 plus 15).

Iour part in this bond drive is to sign up for automatic bond buying through the Payroll Savings Plan where yon work, or the Bond- A-Month Plan at your bank if you are self-employed. TJ. S. Savings bonds are truly security bonds, which require the allotment of only a Iittel spare cash each week, and yet return a whopping big nestegg in 10 years.

I reosttry Department Rockets Aid Telephones Use of rockets in laying light­ weight field telephone wire over in­ accessible terrain by means of an improved type wire dispenser has been proven practical by tests of the army signal corps at Fort Dix1 N. J. Tests showed that in emergencies the rockets may be fired without use of the rocket launcher. The rocket in its original cardboard packing case is fired from a wedge-shaped hole dug in the ground, laying out the wire satisfactorily to distances up to 50 yards. A distinct advantage of the rocket method of laying wire lies in the simplicity and portability of the equipment required. One man equipped with a wire dispenser, a small field telephone and a rocket can establish wire communication for relatively short distances over rivers, lakes, ravines, cliffs and other formidable obstacles. Good Tear for Many The year 1947 was the most pros­ perous peacetime year in history. This is especially interesting in view of numerous early predictions that a business recession was imminent, point out business research workers at University of Illinois. Reasons why the recession did not material­ ize included: short crops in both Europe and the United States, and resulting higher food prices; exports higher than expected; the backlog of demand proving larger than was an­ ticipated, with bottlenecks prevent­ ing production of many commodities from meeting demands; increase in consumer credit and bank loans to individuals, and increased wages to coal miners leading to price in­ creases in coal, steel and automo­ biles adding impetus to inflation. Our First Engineer The beaver is not only one of the most resourceful of small animals but also one of the most industrious, and in many respects most useful. The beaver is the world’s first engi­ neer, and as such, its industrial trait's Sre valuable to man and beast. For their value as engineers, beavers often are carried to locali­ ties where their kind once lived but disappeared. They are captured in large basket-like traps and trans­ ported to depleted lands where beaver dams are needed. No sooner than given a new job—and they like a new undertaking — these sharp- toothed workers start gnawing down trees for dam building material. When spring rains swell the streams their dams prevent the washing away of valuable topsoil, preserve timber supply and aid in beautifying the landscape. States Increase Benefits Legislatures in 22 states last year increased amounts which must be paid workers in compensation for on-the-job injuries, the Council of State Governments reports. Sixteen states now pay up to $25 a week compensation. In five states a maxi­ mum of $30 a week is paid for tem­ porary' disability. Six states passed laws last year providing improved medical care, while death benefits for dependents of those killed in occupational accidents were in­ creased in 20 states. In addition, six states enacted laws giving protec­ tion against loss of health from occupational diseases, bringing the total of states with such legislation . to 39. Laws creating funds to com­ pensate for second injuries were ~>assed in six states, bringing the this group to 38. Team ed Up A N American cyclist was push- ing his machine up a steep hill in France when he overtook a peas­ ant with a donkey cart who was making but little progress, although the donkey was doing his best. The benevolent cyclist, putting his left hand against the back of the cart and guiding his machine with the other, pushed so hard that the donkey, taking fresh courage, pulled his load up to the top successfully. The summit reached, the peas­ ant burst into thanks to his bene­ factor. “It was very good of you, indeed, monsieur,” he protested. “I should never have got up the hill with only one donkey.” Down It Went! He loved fishing so much that he thought everyone else ought to love it. In his zeal he took a novice with him on a fishing trip, furnishing all the tackle. The expert settled the novice in a likely spot and then be­ gan fishing not far away. In a little while the novice called: “How much do those red and green things cost?” “You mean the float?” the expert replied. "Oh, about a dime, I guess.” "Well,” said the novice, “I owe you a dime; mine has sunk.” TECHNICALLY HONEST The fisherman had hard luck and on his way home he entered a fish store and said to the dealer: “Just stand where you are and throw me five of the biggest fish you have in the place.” “But why throw ’em?” asked the dealer in amazement. “So I can tell my family I caught them,” replied the fisherman. "I may be a poor fisherman but I’m no liar.” THEY ABE TOO! Him—What are those holes In the wood? She—They’re knot holes. Him — Well, what are they, then? Stuck With Her Story A famous European king greatly admired a beautiful court lady. One day he asked her age. She replied: “Your majesty, I am 25.” Five years late; he again put the same question to her. Sbe again re­ plied: “Your majesty, I am 25.” “See here,” said the king, “you told me that five years ago.” “Certainly,” she said. “I am not one of those ladies who say one thing one day and another the next.” New Effect As the two men left the movie, one was visibly more impressed with what they had just seen than the other. “It’s really wonderful,” said the first, “what great progress the films have made within a few years, don’t you think?” “It certainly is,” said the second, “first they moved, then they talked and now this one smells.” DID IT IN A HURRY “How many fish you got. r s*»r?” “None, yet; but I’ve only been fishing an hour.” “Say, you’re doing all right. There was a feller fished here for two weeks and he didn’t catch any more than you got in an hour.” Seen Along Main Street By The Street Rambler. 000000 High School Seniors trying to get into bank on legal holiday— Miss denna Collette taking time off for lunch—School girls inter­ viewing newspaper man in front of drug store—Young man suffer­ ing with toothache trying to get in touch with a dentist—Bobbie Dwiggins in earnest conversation with a friend near soda fountain —Jack LeGrand trying to keep the postoffice lobbyin sanitary condit­ ion—Small boy picking up roll of greenbacks on sidewalk near bank building that some unlucky fellow lost—Courting couples parked in front of court house on sultry af­ ternoon—John Durham busy tak­ ing in cash on Saturday afternoon —Mrs. Paul Hendrix doing week­ end shopping—Mrs. Frank Fow­ ler buying frozen foods—Sheek Bowden, Jr., talking abo.ut trip to the mountains—Bobby Honeycutt walking up the highway from the direction of Catawba College— Bettie Sue Whittaker pausing for refreshments on hot afternoon. Our County And Social Security By Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, Manager According to the experts, 105,000 veterans of World War 11 will die within three years after discharge Naturally, no one knows just who will die; but wh'oever they are, they will leave widows, child­ ren, and parents who need finan­ cial protection. Your editor, being particularly interested in veterans, asked me recently what protection veterans have under the Old-Age and Sur­ vivors Insurance provision of tbe Social Security Act. In our dis­ cussion, I told him about a veteran who had visited me. I believe you will be interested, as was your editor, in what I told the veteran whether or not you are one. This veteran told me that he never paid any social security taxes until about a year ago but that he understood that there is a special provision for veterans. He was right. Tbe Congress did provide a special protection through an a- mendmem to tbe Social Security Act. The veteran had joined the Navy a few days after Pearl Harbor. He was in college when he enlist­ ed. He reported for duty about June 15, 1942. He was honorably discharged in December, 1945. He came out in good shape and, there­ fore, did not have a service-con­ nected disability. As be did not have a service couneeted disability, the Veterans Administration would not pay compensation to bis sur­ vivors in case of bis death. But he would be fully insured under tbe Social Security Act, it be should die within three years after discharge, and bis survivors would be entitled to payments under Old- Age and Survivois Insurance pro* gram. The dependents of this veteran are a wife and a 3-month old baby boy. I told him that in the event of his death, within tbtee years after discharge, they would receive about $40 a month, beginning at his death and ending when tbe boy is 18. He then wanted to know what would happen if he lived be­ yond tbe 3-year limitation. I told him that if be contiaued to work on a job covered by social security, be would be insured on the basis of his wages long before the end of the 3-year period and that- his wif; and son would still be protected. This veteran left my office feeling much better over the future of his wife and son. • THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C.

He stood behind her in the line, his eyes noting every detail from her soft, short black curls to her doll-size suede shoes. He even approved of her hat, a warm plum color the exact shade of coat and shoes. He was so busy with his survey that he failed to notice the nickel she left in the worn wooden cup in the shelf. “Hey, Lady,” the money-changer yelled after her, " “You left your change!” She must not have heard the man, for she was already through the turn­ stile and was disappearing down the stairs to the platform. Jeff tried to make his voice sound casual as he told the man, “I’ll give it to her.” The man grinned. “Sure don’t blame you.” Jeff fumbled in his haste to get through the turnstile. He followed her downstairs and spotted her in the middle of the crowd on the plat­ form, watching the F train roll in. “Your change,” he panted, “You left your change at the booth.” She stared up at him, and the im­ pact of the incredibly dark velvety eyes tossed his heart into some rosy world far, far away. Desper­ ately he searched for the smooth, brilliant, exactly right thing he never could think to say until it was too late. But, “You left your change,” he repeated inanely, and held out the nickel. “Why, thank you very much,” she said, and her voice was just what it should have been—low and soft and sweet. “How nice of you to chase after me!” “Oh, that’s all right,” he said. “I . . . I . . .” and there he stuck. She smiled rather vaguely at him, waited a minute, and started to turn away when he failed to think of any­ thing else to say. “Wait, please!” he shouted at her. He didn’t need to shout — he was right beside her—so close that the crowd rushing out of the train threw her against him. For a breathless moment, he saw her tiny hand clutch at his coat, smelled the wonderful sweetness of her perfume as she laughed up at him. He supported her elbows and helped her catch her balance. ‘This seems to be your day for rescuing me,” she said, “Thanks again.” Before he could say another word, she was inside the car and the door was closing. Then he realized he hadn’t found out her name or any­ thing about her except that her left hand was innocent of rings—wedding Dr otherwise. He darted down the. platform and found a last late-closing door. It didn’t help much to know that he was on the same train with her— one that he had no business on. It was jammed and he struggled hope­ lessly to get back to her car. He died a thousand deaths at 34th street, 23rd and 14th, afraid she would get off and he would miss her in the mob. It happened at West 4th street, but he saw her in time and bounded after her, down the stairs to the Sixth ave­ nue platform, barely keeping her in sight. He thought she looked right at him, just before she wheeled and ran back up the stairs. “Hope she isn’t afraid of me—might peg me for a wolf,” he told himself. “No — that’s silly! Probably didn’t even see me.” He chased back up the stairs—to find that she was not on the downtown platform. He looked behind the news stand, at both ends of the long plat­ form—she was not in sight. It dawned on him to look across the tracks at the uptown platform— where he saw her, just before the train pulled in. He skidded all the way down the stairs, landing in an ungraceful and thoroughly disgruntled heap at the bottom. By the time he untangled his long arms and legs and got across the mezzanine floor and back up the uptown stairs, the train was pulling out and she was gone. He was sunk, stymied, and he didn’t have the remotest chance of catching her—of finding out what any half-wit should have asked her before he returned the precious ■ — m The guard looked at her with un­ derstanding, looked grimly at Jeff and had a firm grip on Jeff’s collar an instant later. “Bothering' the lady, eh? Why you—I ought to have you thrown in the jug!” In about 40 seconds, Jeff was standing dazed and furious outside the subway station, back where he had first maneuvered to walk dose to the lovely little black-haired stranger. Wfiy had she raised such a rum­ pus? She must have seen him be­ fore, when she doubled back at West 4th—she must have run away from Jeff spotted her in the middle of the crowd on the platform, watching the F train roll in. “Your change,” he panted, “you left your change at the booth.” nickel. Who was she? Where did she live? Did she travel the same route every day? Did she work — did she—he didn’t have the slightest clue as to how to find her again — ever. Cursing himself for a blithering idiot, he stepped on the next train that came along. Might as well go back to 42nd street and ride his usual train back to his lonely room and his lonelier thoughts. Of course he decided to be at that change booth every day for the rest of his life, if necessary, until he found her again. He pondered an ad to run in the Times: “Will the beau­ tiful lady with the dark eyes who for­ got a nickel at the change booth at 42nd street on the night of . . .” Back .at 42nd street, he stood gloomily staring at her for several minutes before he realized it. She was standing on the downtown platform again, right where he had first muffed his chances with this girl he had dreamed all of his life of some day meeting. She was talking to a man, so absorbed that she didn’t even glance in his di­ rection. Once more Jeff dashed upstairs, downstairs and along the platform until at last he could reach out and grasp her arm. She looked up then, surprise widen­ ing her dark eyes, and let out a blood-curdling scream. “Help! Po­ lice—Help!” Shebackedawayfrom him, still screaming and started toward a blue-uniformed subway guard. vA W W \. p t o u d i Grace Noll Crowell i ' THlNKthatGodlsproudof those who bear A sorrow bravely proud indeed of them Who walk straight through the dark to find Him there And kneel in fidth to touch His gmnenf* hem.

He puzzled and groused over that problem while he drank two cups of coffee in a little place across the street. He didn’t get the answer until he reached into his pocket for his wallet to pay his check. The wal­ let was' gone. Jeff remembered the appealing way her dark eyes had held his when she was thrown on his chest on the platform—remembered those pretty little white hands as they clung to his lapel—tugging at his heart strings and his wallet. LET’S TALK ABOUT fIlo J J L BY CHARLES B. ROTH — Tact— A Daily Need One of the chief qualities of those whom you like and admire is a quality known as tact. Chances are that in your lifetime you’ve known very few men and women who were completely tactful. But haven’t you known scores and scores who were not? You know the kind I mean—men and women Who always are saying untactful things that make you un­ happy, that fill you with doubts about yourself, that give you moments when you wonder whether there is such a thing as a kindly person in the world. Tact is without doubt the essence of charm, graeiousness and of gentleness. But do you know what it is? It’s merely the perception of what to do or say under delicate or diffi­ cult circumstances. That’s a defini­ tion of tact. But tact is much more than a definition really. Tact is really a way of life. You can’t be tactful unless you are thinking about other people, about what they like, about their rights and feelings more than you think about your own. The real value of tact in your life is that it relieves tension and glosses over situations that might endanger friendships or cause you to lose self- respect in the eyes of other persons. If you have tact, you balance both sides and never willfully offend an­ other person. ' At the risk of appearing untactful, let me tell you that no one ever is born with tact, but everyone who ever had it acquired it. And you can acquire it just as easily and just as surely as anyone else can. Do you want to know how? I’ve already hinted at that earliel yourself. And that’s the advice I am going to give you now. Think of that other person, try to see his viewpoint, try to see what his likes and dislikes are. Ask yourself what you would do it your respective roles were re­versed. And then when you ex­ press yourself either by word or' action, express yourself In unsel­fishness in the way yon think he would like you to. - LOVELY NIGHTIE FOR TROUSSEAU] MAKE A FROCKIN CRISP CHECKS Adorable Nightdress Give your summer lingerie ward­ robe a touch of glamour with this adorable nightdress that launders like a dream.

Meeting Changed Center Grange has changed its meeting night from the 2nd and 4th Wednesday nights to the 2nd and 4th Monday nights. The next regular meeting night is May 24th, at 8 o’clock. AU members are urged to be present at this meet­ ing as there will be a special pro gram. Remember the date. An OldDoglrack Marshall Booe, of Yadkinville, Route 3, was in town Thursday and brought us a brick which was used in erecting the chimney of the old Richmond Reavis house on the Yadkin^Davie county line. This brick was made 95 years ago by George Reavis. While the brick was hardening, a dog came along and left his foot-print in the brick, which is plain and dis­ tinct. The Reavis house was re­ modeled this spring by Mr. Booe, the owner. The brick is on dis play in The Record office window. Union Revival A Union Revival meeting will begin at First Methodist Church in this city, on Sunday, May 30th, and will continue through June 11th. Rev.

The best farms division of the State depart ment of Agriculture will conduct its annual small-grain field meet­ ing here May 19-20. Dr. G. K. Middleton, who heads ■ the small-grain breeding program, will have charge of the meetings. He will be assisted by W. H. Ran­ kin and Dr. E. R. Collins of the North CarolinaExperiment station and the North CarolinaExtension service. Three separate sessions have been planned to accomodate all visitors, I. W. Hendricks, an official of the department’s Pied­ mont station, announced. A severe wind, rain, hail and electric storm visited this city last Thursday afternoon. Soil roads and sidewalks were badly washed. Bob Walker, who has sojourned on this good earth for 77 years, solemnly affirms that this was the hardest rain that he ever saw fall. Nearly one inch of rain fell in a- bout 20 minutes. E. H. Frost, who has been a pa­ tient at Rowan Memorial Hospit­ al for two weeks, was able to re turn home last week. Raymond Foster, one of the most progressive Imen in this sec tion, has offered to donate four acres of land in West Mocksville, adjoining the property of Mrs. H. C. Meroney, for a hospital sire, and the Davie County committee voted to accept the same. At the same meeting they voted to name the hospital Davie Memorial Hos­ pital, and ask the County Com missioners to call an election for the purpose of issuing $77,7fiO of bonds, which is the county’s share of $360,000, the cost of building and equipment. AU of the hospitals in this sec tion are full, and there are many people who need hospitalization that are unable to find room in a hospital. Most of the adjoining counties have one or more hos pitals, while we have none. W e cannot expect accomodations in other counties when they have more demands than they can ac comodate. B. C. BROCK, Ch’m Hospital Committee. D. G. Gruhhs D. G. Grubbs, 65, died at his home, 744 Cherry street, at 10:00 o’clock Friday morning following an extended illness. ■ Funeral services were held at 4 p. m. Saturday at Eaton’s Baptist Church with Revs. J. P. Davis and E. W. Turner officiating, and the body laid to rest in the church1 cemetery. j Surviving are the wife, three sons, W. M.

Richie, of Salisbury, and Mrs. E. R. Benton, Newport News, Va. partment Last week two cases of infantile paralysis were reported from Da­ vie County. They were both in the area of Smith Grove school, and for this reason the school has been temporarily closed. There seems to be two ways in which people can get “polio.” 1st. by being close to the polio patient, breathing the same air, possibly by coming in contact with the clothes or body. 2nd, the bowel discharges of a patient with polio contain large numbers of polio germs. If the patient does not use a sanitary toilet or privy, flies may carry the germs to our food and water. There is no vaccination that protects against polio. However, there are precautions we can take. Children should be kept out of crowds when there are cases of polio about. 'It is useless to keep them from school if they gather at picnics and movies. Many doc tors believe tonsil operations are inadvisable during polio season. W e should be careful that we use only sanitary food and water. That means each home should have a sanitary toilet or privy that is fly- tight. The well should be far e- nough away from the privy and protected from surface water. The house should be screened to keep out flies. Eugene E. Taylor, M. D. Health Officer. Mr and Mrs. C. L. Bunch, of Statesville, and Mrs. E. H.

CLIMAX: P a le stin e With a clashing of arms and a babble of alarmed voices, events in Palestine appeared to be piling up for another minor but bloody climax in human history. This particular crisis had its im­ mediate beginning in a savage at­ tack on the Arab city of Jaffa by members of Irgun Zvai Leumi, Jew­ ish underground force. Fact that the Irgunists' foray against Jaffa was made in defiance of orders by Haganah, the regular Jewish militia, carried no weight in the rush of in­ cidents that followed. From Palestine’s coastal plain, site of the neighboring cities of Jaffa (Arab) and Tel Aviv (Jewish), the focal point of the disturbances moved swiftly inland to the holy city of Jerusalem. Arabs and Jews hastily deployed their on-the-scene forces in prepara­ tion for what stacked up to be a major battle for possession of Jeru­ salem. Facing each other across a scant 200 yards of no-man’s land, each side had its eyes fixed on the strategic Alamein camp which the British were evacuating. But that wasn’t all. It soon be­ came apparent that the Arab league nations surrounding Palestine did not intend to stay out of this fight. Reports were current that six Arab nations had decided to invade the Holy Land with ground, sea and air forces before the British ended their mandate on May 15. The whole thing was shaping up in the form of a more or less total Arab effort to crush completely the Jevrfsh intention of creating a Zionist state in Palestine. Worried United Nations delegates, meanwhile, cast about for a means to prevent the inevitable carnage, or at least to preserve the city of Jerusalem. France pushed its sponsorship of a heavily-armed volunteer U. N. po­ lice corps to safeguard Jerusalem. Hint of the make-up of such a force was given in the suggestion that it might include 100 New York police volunteers, but no Russians. This' protective army would number from 500 to SOO members. WTiile the Palestine situation leaped into a frantic state of flux, the United States kept discreetly out of it all in conformation to its re­ cently - adopted policy of apparent disinterest to what happens in the Holy Land. D E F IA N C E : T w o Issu es In a surprise speech at a dinner given by Michigan chambers of commerce for the state’s congres­ sional delegation, Sen. Arthur Vah- denberg served notice on Russia that: •I The United States may join west- ern Europe in a military alli­ ance against Communist aggression, and o “We shall not surrender to Com- munist conspiracies in the Unit­ ed States.” Thus, the chief Republican propon­ ent of bi-partisan foreign policy split the rind on two issues which, like grapefruit, will come more and more to be in the public eye as this year wears on. Simply stated, those two issues are: Whether the U. S. should line up militarily alongside the recently formed union of western European nations, and whether the Communist party should be outlawed in this country. They could become decisive issues in the presidential campaign. In­ deed, Harold Stassen already has introduced one of them by coming out bluntly in favor of outlawing Communists in the U. S. Vandenberg said, “We are sui­ cidal fools if we do not root out and destroy any treason at home which may dream of bringing world revolu­ tion to the-United States.” The Michigan senator only hinted at a U. S. military alliance with western Europe, but his remarks hardly could be misconstrued. What Vandenberg didn't say is that while the U. S. has no formal or offi­ cial role in the union of western Eu­ ropean nations, American aid and support, military-wise, of that union almost inevitably is implied. Whether or not) this nation will grant that assurance will come to be a towering question in the public mind soon. SKY-HIGH: B o m b in g A team of air force and army ordnance men is seeking better methods of hitting pin-point bomb targets from extremely high alti­ tudes, out of reach of most anti-air­ craft guns or fighter planes. This joint organization is conduct­ ing most of its secret tests in the California desert at Muroc air base. It’s assignment is to carry out re­ search in bombing techniques, par­ticularly at high altitudes. > OUTLOOK T h e D i m P e a c e Gen. Omar N. Bradley, army chief of staff, was taking a dim view of the possibilities of peace. In fact, he admitted to the senate armed services committee, the pros­ pect of a war is appreciably greater now than it was three months ago. Adding forcefully to the pattern of evidence which U. S. armed forces representatives have been construct­ ing to support their requests for a military draft and universal train­ ing, Bradley said: “I think we would be neglecting our duty if we did not try to tgll you that we are a little bit more afraid something will happen than" we were three months ago when we were talk­ ing in terms of reserves.” And he added “we are not so sure” ' that war might not be looming in the immediate future. To his testimony Bradley appended this clincher: “We know that we are all speaking aboht Russia.” There it was — a responsible ap­ praisal by the chief of staff of where the present talking war between Russia and the U. S. might lead. What caused General Bradley to think the situation is more critical now than it was three months ago? He didn’t say, but there is only one apparent explanation. The tide of power' politics has turned against Russia and is moving in favor of the western democracies. With ERP beginning to channel money and supplies into Europe, the fields most favorable to Communist growth — poverty, hunger and dis­ satisfaction—are starting to be re­ claimed. As far as getting control of west­ ern Europe was concerned, Commu­ nists saw their main chance go glimmering when they lost the Ital­ ian election. They have, in short, gone beyond the stage where they can carry out territorial acquisitions through political coups. ■_ In order to expand further now, Russia probably would have to apply force, which, in this case, would be the Red army. And that may be why General Bradley thinks war is more of a likelihood now than it was three months ago. SMASHER: F o r A to m s To expand further the constantly widening fields of atomic research, a gigantic new cyclotron will be built at the University of California at a total cost of nine million dol­ lars. In announcing the project the atomic energy commission said the new cyclotron—commonly known as an atom-smasher—would be 20 times more powerful than the 4,900-ton ma­ chine currently in operation at the Berkeley institution. David E. Lilienthal, AEC chair- mah, provided a hint as to the kind of long range planning for peace the commission is visualizing when he said that the Yiew cyclotron “serves notice to the world, that it is the in­ tent of the people of the United States to be pre-eminent in the de­ velopment of fundamental science of all kinds.” Engineering already is under way on the huge atom-splitter, but it will take five years before it is com­ pleted. Conceived as 20 times more powerful than the most powerful cy­ clotron now operating, it will pro­ duce atomic bullets ranging in force from six billion to 10 billion volts. A t L a r g e Secretary of Commerce W. Aver- ell Harriman has been named by President Trnman as ambassador- at-large for the European recovery program. Harriman resigned his cabinet post immediately.

APROPOS THE CURRENT ROW “ between the air forces and the army-navy, it is interesting to recall that in 1940 the army asked congress for only six Flying Fortresses. This was one year after war broke in Europe, yet the army still didn’t see the need of planes. And had it not been for Congress­ man Ross Collins of Mississippi who demanded more planes, the army would have been worse prepared than it was. Today, President Truman—an ex- artilleryman—is sidipg with Secre­ tary Forrestal’s navy and ground forces, while congress—as in 1940— is siding with the air force. Backstage battling between For- restal and Air Secretary Symington has been even more vitriolic than most people realize. Here is part of the repartee during a locked-door session of the senate armed services committee between the air secretary and the man who is supposed to be his boss: SYMINGTON — “The air force for three years has said it needed the 70-group program in peacetime and it has never deviated beeause of the strategic aspect of the 70 groups. We asked this year what we asked for in 1947 and 1948.” FOBRESTAL—“You have to ex­ ercise some judgment between ex­ trem es. There is a middle ground for judgment which, as I say, I have to rely on the joint chiefs of staff to furnish m e with, and they are going to have a very hard wrestling m atch to do it.” In addition to the 70 regular groups, the air force is asking for 27 groups for air national guard, 34 groups for air reserve, 22 squad-' rons for such activities as recon­ naissance, air weather and air com­ munications. The increase from 55 to 70 groups will mean a correspond­ ing increase from 364,000 to 453,000 men by the end of 1949. If the 70-group program is ap­ proved, the air force plans on adding 1,512 airplanes in fiscal year 1949. The big increase would be in bomber strength. Under the 55-group pro­ gram, the air force would be limited to 480 bombers; under the 70-group program, this would be increased to 720 bombers. “That is roughly a 50 per cent in­ crease in o u t striking force,” Gen. 'Touhy” Spaatz told the senators. “The plane we would like to con­ tinue to build,” added Symington, is a modification of the B-29.” He pointed out that the first B-29 had a bomb load of 2,000 pounds, whereas the present bomb load is 10.000 pounds. The original range was 3,938 miles, the present range is 4,100 miles and the expected range is 6,945 miles. However, the B-29 already has been flown more than 5.000 statute miles with 10,000 pound? of bombs, Symington disclosed. * » * Air Force Maneuvers IN MANEUVERS OVER GREAT BRITAIN, the air force has demon­ strated its ability to slip a bombing mission of B-29 Superfortresses through the equivalent of Russia’s defenses. Lt. Gen. Curtis Le May, air force chief in Europe, arranged with tile Royal Air Force to send a mock mission against Britain's tight in- - tercepter and radar net. Because of long experience during the war, the British net is supposed to be the most efficient in the world. However, the B-29s not only broke ’through to their target, but most of them never were detected. Secret of the American success was altitude. The big Forts flew in at ceiling of 35,000.feet. As a result of the maneuvers, air force strategists are convinced that the “iron curtain” around the Soviet could never stop a high-flying mis­ sion of B-29s, especially since Rus­ sia’s defenses are stretched out over thousands of miles, compared to the relatively small area defended by Britain. Note—The joint British-American maneuvers were pulled off by Gen­ eral Le May without orders from Washington.* * • MaeArihur1S Triunphal Tour . GENERAL MacARTHUR’S BOOSTERS are trying to find a way to revive their hero’s battered popu­ larity. Despite the drubbing Mac- Arthur received in California, Wis­ consin and Nebraska, Congressman A. L. Miller, of Nebraska says: “MacArthur did not quit at B&taan, and he is still a very live candidate now. I am amazed that anyone should count the general out.” Next move being urged by Mac-' Arthur’s friends is Ids immediate return to the United States for a hero’s ovation. If MacArthur flies to California and makes a tri­ umphal, cross-country, rear-plat­ form train trip to Washington, with a speech to a joint session of con­ gress, they claim his poUtical ap peal would be revived. Other public observers believe MacArthur might wind up with as many boos as cheers on such a tour, hi addition, it would just about ruin his work as -commander of occu­ pied Japan. W a s h in g t o n D i & e s t j C a se o f the N a z i R ecep tion , O r M islea d in g P ro p a g a n d d ByBAUKHAGE JVetes Analyst and Commentator WASHINGTON—L ast m onth there was a memorandum on m y desk from the departm ent of the arm y addressed to “all form er w ar correspondents, subject: Arm y Day, 1948,” It suggested th at perhaps I had a w ar story th at stood out in m y mind th at I would like to relate as an A im y Day feature. The memorandum didn’t state which w ar was preferred, if any, but I supposed th at it didn’t m atter so long as it wasn’t the next one. I reported the landing on the Normandy beaches, the Battle of the Bulge and many of the other important events of the last war—from a microphgne in Washington; my connection with World War I was less vicarious; my experiences during earlier conflicts such as San Juan, Gettysburg, Chapultepec, Yorktown and Hastings are a little hazy.9 Therefore I decided that the de­ partment of the army might permit me to relate an ad­ venture which pro­ vided a little com­ edy relief in 1939, in the nervous in­ terlude, known as- the9 “phony war,” before the real storm broke. 1 1 went something like this: It happened at Wesermuende, th e German air and naval base, shortly after Britain and France had de­ clared war on Germany. America correspondents still had consider­ able freedom, and I had managed to wrangle permission to interview the first British fliers shot down by the Germans. I did, but that isn’t this story. For all the careful German prepa­ rations for war, there was still a certain amount of confusion in thq office of propaganda under the high­ ly efficient father of lies, Dr. Goeb- bels, but I managed to get the use of a German army transport plane to Hy me (with a German radio man) from Berlin to Wesermuende. The war was roaring westward into Poland and the great Tem- pelhof airfield in Berlin was all bnt deserted when we arrived be­ fore dawn and were escorted with alacrity, and not a little wonder­ment, to our transport which al­ready was warming np. We had been np all night and my colleague immediately fell asleep on a idle of parachute equipment. As soon as dawn broke, I busied myself watching the anti-aircraft batteries in the fields surrounding Berlin, gun pits in fields surrounded by complacent, cud - chewing cows who were, like the rest of the be­mused population, unaware of what the Fuehrer was about to bring down on them. For some reason we flew low,' al­ most scratching our wings on the church steeples. At last my com­ panion awoke. We were approach­ ing the airfield. It was a lively spot. As we drew nearer, we could see a detachment of marines which came to attention as we approached. A half dozen staff cars were drawn up in a semi-circle, balanced by blue­ jackets and ground personnel of the air force. "We’re lucky,” my companion re­ marked, “some big brass must be coming, we’ll see a parade.” No other plane was visible though, as we circled a couple of times over the docks, thick with ships including the long-lost Europa, back on her dash from Murmansk. Finally we landed a couple of yards from the military formation which by now was drawn up at attention. We were a little embarrassed, for we were in plain sight of the imposing array, and were afraid we might suddenly bump into the visiting dignitary— and we were hatless and unshaven.I let my companion go ahead. There was no place to go, however, but in the direction of the naval de­ tachment and their commanding of­ ficer. It later developed he was the commander of the base, a tall, slim, correct naval officer, perhaps a little nervous, though we were too nervous ourselves to realize it at the mo­ ment. We advanced, like pups ap­proaching a porcupine. A com­mand rang out. The troops snapped to present arms, the officer sa­luted and drew a manuscript from his tunic, something new to me in military procedure—all I could think of was a painting of General Washington reading a message to his troops (and I always had thought that was a flight of the artist’s fancy). The officer began reading—it was a message of welcome all right. Finally, my companion (he was half- English, which may explain his fortitude) interrupted: “There must be some mistake. We are two radio correspondents.” The commander bowed, looked abashed, glanced over our heads toward Uie plane. “But where are the other gentle­ men?” he wanted to know. “There are just two of us,” we replied. "But the minister of propaganda? Who is representing him? We were notified by ti e department — a spe­cial plane >. ILe truck for the bag­gage—” • We explained briefly, and waited for the skies to fall. They didn’t. The officer continued his speech without even dropping his monocle —just to be sure—editing it slightly to make it apply as he went. There was no question that he thought we were going to be, certainly OUGHT to be Goebbels. The formation melted away, the truck which had been requested to transport sound equipment started to load, all but one of the staff cars slunk away. There was only one red face, the airforce commander’s, and he felt not embarrassment, but rage. This was a purely military field and I had held up the German war effort for half a morning, thus contributing my bit to Allied victory even before America was in the war,' For the rest, the only significant memory, except .for my interview with those British boys, was the questioning by the German officers. Obviously they didn’t share the com­ placent assurances of victory of the Nazi higher-ups—they remembered World War I. Today the greatest danger to the peace is the possibility that the will, the purpose, the power of the United States will not be understood in time by the Russiah command—that they will fail to recognize the risk of self-annihilation they are taking in their “cold war,” as the Kaiser and Hitler failed to realize it. • * * Roses, Rut Never A Spray of Yeto There are many good garden books, and I for one had about come to the conclusion that the final word on gardening had been written, when along came the Woman’s Home Com­ panion Garden Book (P. F. Collier and Son corporation,- publisher. New York City) with many new angles. Edited by John C. Wister, director of the Arthur Hoyt Scott horticultural foundation, Swarthmore college, this book speaks with au­ thority. “It is correct,” it states on page 472, “to speak of narcissus, and also correct to use the English term daf­ fodil for all species and varieties of narcissus. There is confusion about this, a popular impression being that daffodils are the yellow kind, and narcissus the white kinds. There also has been confusion about the name jonquil. All the daffodils of the jon­ quil group are distinguished by their narrow, garlic-like foliage and by their characteristic bright yellow color, which is the same shade throughout the flower.” All of this interested me mightily as I had just been studying a photograph of a clomp of narcissus in a popular magazine’s “name this picture” contest. The leaves on the plant shown were broad, though the answer given by the editor was “jonquil.” Obviously, even contest editors may err. The narcissus discussion is a sam­ ple of Editor Wister’s directness in this new garden book and there is more like it on every page. Not the least interesting writing in this book is the foreward by the well-loved Liberty Hyde Bailey, dean of all gardeners, whose accomplish­ ments need no eulogy here. Another intriguing feature is the discussion and diagramming of va­ rious geographic areas according to their geological and climatic condi­ tions. Most of us have been frost­ bitten too often for comfort by blind­ ly following the usual maps. Additional data and measuring qualities have been added to long- established material in making a broader and yet more personal pre­ sentation of Ius problems to the gardener in any given section of the United States and Canada. The net result is the clarification of many heretofore-vague statements. It would be unfair to other ex­cellent books to say that this is the best garden book yet published. In some ways it excels all others, but still there are other volumes which may contain more informa­ tion on specific subjects. Perhaps the way to size up this 1,000-page volume is to say that re­ gardless of whatever other garden­ ing books you own, you need this one too jf you seek fresh angles on your favorite hobby. With its fine cover and paper stock, its 24 photographic pages in full color, its 56 pages of black and white illustrations and more than' 100 how-to-do-it pictures, the Wom­ an’s Home Companion Garden' Book is completely, satisfying.

The Temple in the Nation's Life Lesson for May 23, 1918 D r. XeTvton OUR golden text is “O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our mak- ,er,” Psalms 95:6. The Jewish temple was a national sanc­ tuary, whether we think in term s of the altars of Abel, Noah or A braham , the tabernacle at Sinai, or the great temples at Mount Moriah, of Solomon, of Zerubba- bel, or any of the other appointed places of m eeting with God. The welfare of mankind, in every age, requires the faithful and frequent worship of God. From the days when they sang the hymns of David, the Jews were prosperous to the degree that they were true to God in their worship and in their reverence for all things holy. This lesson traces the story, leaving no doubt in any pupil’s mind about the solemn truth of the golden text.# * * A HOCSE OF WORSHIP TN Ezra 3:10-13, we see the pic- ture of priests leading the peo­ ple to sing unto the Lord. “Be­ cause he is good, for his mercy en- dureth forever toward Israel.” Wherever you live, whether in the city or in some quiet rural com­ munity, remember this, the sanctu­ ary measures the attitude of the people of such community toward God to a degree that no other gage of public opinion can offer. We have our various polls of public opinion, but none of them are so prophetic of a eople’s ultimate hope as their attitude toward God’s house. Boys and girls who regularly at­ tend Sunday school and public wor­ ship will be watched by the men who are looking for trustworthy leaders tomorrow. * * * HONORING GOD’S HOUSE H OERVE the Lord with gladness, *■5 come before his presence with Binging,” Psalms 100:2. We read how the people in the long ago brought their best gifts to make God’s house beautiful. What are we doing with our best gifts? I think of boys and girls today who are helping with their small gifts to erect and equip beautiful houses of worship. Tomorrow they will point with gratitude and thanksgiv­ ing to the part they had in making God’s house the best house in the community. Thus do we honor God as we honor his house. * * # WHY WE GO TO CHURCH MR. WANNAMAKER, the mer­ chant prince, was once asked why he went so regularly to church. He replied: “I go to church for two main reasons. First, because God com­ mands it; second, because it en­ riches life.” The Jews teach us, in the long record of their faithfulness or un­ faithfulness, that the people who go regularly to church are the most dependable people in any com­ munity. And we can bring it right down to our day and generation, and get the same answer. A business man told me recently that he had a check made of the several hundred young people in his employ, and he found that more than ninety per cent of the regular church-goers were advancing in their work with his company. He further discovered that almost with­ out exception, the people'who were giving trouble were the people who never entered a church. * * * OUR NEED OF PUBLIC WORSHIP OUR bodies require regular nour­ ishment. And our souls are Just as dependent upon- regular nourishment. I would not say-that it is absolutely necessary for one to attend public worship to grow spiritually, but the odds are en­ tirely against those who claim that they can grow spiritually without attending public worship. There is a place of worship within the reach of well-nigh every person in the United States. We are re­ sponsible before God if we neglect to claim the advantages and bless­ ing of public worship. The place of the temple in the life of Israel is a symbol which teaches us today that we dare not forsake the assembling of ourselves on the Lord’s Day in his house. The fellowship of worship is the sweet­ est fellowship on earth. It is our surest road to peace here and here­after.

Navy Strives To Develop Atomic Engine For Sub WASHINGTON.—An atomic en­ gine which would propel a sub­ marine underwater at 30 knots for a year without refueling Is the goal of the navy* s nuclear power en­ gineers. Navy officials said the develop­ ment of an efficient atomic energy engine for a ship may require a minimum of S years and probably 10 or 15 years of intensive work. The engine is still on the drawing boards, and it may be several years before an experimental model, will be attempted, they said. “In theory, atomic power can drive a submarine at 30 knots sub­ merged for a year, without refuel* ing,” said Adm. William H. P. Blandyf Atlantic fleet commander. “With atomic drive, oxygen would be needed only for the crew, and a supply ample for weeks of cruising down below could be carried.” Sale of "AtYocity Gold" Nets $728,000 for Needy LONDON.—Fine gold obtained by the Germans from teeth and jewels of concentration camp victims was sold for $728,000.

Girl's Plea To Marry Slayer Saves Him From Death Chair NASHVILLE, TENN.-A 20-year- old girl who pleaded for permission to marry a killer before he went to the electric chair saved her sweet­ heart’s life. Gov. Jim McCord commuted the death sentence of Daniel Budzynski, 19, to 99 years of imprisonment. But he sternly disapproved a marriage between the convict and Jeanne Lucas, a Pittsburgh Sunday School teacher. Miss Lucas was undismayed. “There will still be a wedding,** she said. Budzynski was to have died in the' electric chair with Richard Reilly, trigger-man in a holdup in which a Beale street merchant was killed in Memphis in 1946. Reilly still faces the chair but*McCord is con­ sidering his case. Miss Lucas showed up in Nash-; ville accompanied by Henrietta 1 Budzynski, Daniel's sister. They! borrowed $200 from a Pittsburgh' grocer to come here and make a desperate plea for Budzynski*s life or, failing that, obtain permission for Miss Lucas to marry him before he went to the chair.

Arkenses False Earnings Would a 3,500 per cent increase in wages or salary interest you? If your income sky-rocketed like that, you wouldn’t be much worried about the high cost of living, would you? Wait a minute. Are you sure you’d be on easy street? Perhaps you will be surprised to learn that workers in France have had that amount of in­ crease in their money earnings since 1914, and they still lack the necessi­ ties of life. A brick layer in Paris worked 48 hours a week in 1914. He took home 451Afrancs a week, slightly less than one franc per hour. But today he gets 35 francs per hour. In 1914 he could buy four quarts of milk for his franc or a dozen-and-a-half eggs. But today for an hour’s wages he can buy less than three quarts of milk and barely 7 eggs—if he can find them. Both items, plentiful in 1914, are now hard to obtain. Hold Tour Own? This means that there are things more important than increases in wages. The consequences of inflation are such that costs of living man­ age to keep a step ahead of wage boosts. The lesson is this: the aver­ age breadwinner cannot hold his iwn once the inflation spiral gets go­ ing. No matter how often wages are increased, he gets farther and far­ther behind. Costs always outrun increased earnings — unless someone stops the spiral. To stop a runaway team, you have to do more than holler “Whoa!” You have to pull back on the reins, set your heels in the dirt, and maybe make a little sacrifice in terms of direction and effort. Infla­ tion is like that. Some of us fail to see the brink of the precipice ahead. We take our increases and discount the dire results. $10,000 Trifle When I left China in 1936, a com­ fortable home could have been pur­ chased there for 10,000 Chinese dol­ lars. Today you’d be lucky to buy a loaf of bread for $10,000. Matter of fact, a Chinese friend of mine re­ cently enclosed a $10,000 note to me in a letter. The note was not a gift, nor a repayment on a loan, nor a sum for investment. It was merely a souvenir, virtually worthless. Puu xogetlier I Oh, this can’t happen to America! Anyone who utters that statement is confused, chances are. Actually it has already been happening to America. The spiral of inflation has cut down buying power, cheapened our money. Tolay, $2 are worth what $1 was worth only a few years ago. This means that if you have insurance or a bank account, the ef- ■ feet of inflation has reduced these 1 by one-half. Loss to savings in this way is very real. In most lines of industry and in agriculture, our vast production is doing a fine job of meeting unprece­ dented demand. We must continue to produce, cut costs, and save more. We must do the right things about these problems. If each of us will act individually and collectively as we know best, the inflation bogey is dead. Remember that the answer is not always to be found in wage boosts. Rather, we shall be good citi­ zens if we pull together to bring the cost of living down. Farm Wages Rising Farm labor wages showed an up­ ward trend as 1947 ended, Iowa emergency farm labor summary fig­ ures indicate. Daily wages, without board, averaged $7 at the end of the year, a rise of $1 over October. Orders for dependable year-round workers, either married or single, are getting harder to fill, despite the- better wages. Good paying city jobs and the desire of young men to farm for themselves are blamed for the growing scarcity in farm labor. New Seed Disinfectant Suggested for Cotton Ceresan M seed disinfectant is being recommended for use against numerous seed-borne and soil-borne crop diseases, including seed-borne anthracnose, angular ieafspot, seed decay and seedling damping-off of cotton.

Soil Fumigant Stops Work of Nematodes In its war on soil pests, scientific research has forged a fatal new weapon against nematodes, the eel­ like worms whose burrowing activi­ ties cause nearly two million acres of farmland in the South to lay idle every year.

Can Com in Variety „ for Next Winter’s Meal* Cream Style, Whole Kernel, or Corn-on-the-Cob—you can have your own home canned corn in variety for winter use. More corn will be canned this year, due to the fact that more pressure cookers are available. Most home canners prefer to use pressure cookers for canning corn because it keeps so much better and time is saved too. Be sure the gauge of your cooker is accurate. Always can corn fresh from the garden or truck patch. It must not have been gathered the previous day and stood overnight. The kernels should be plump, shiny and full of milk-like juice. To can corn Cream Style, cut tip ends from the kernels and scrape out the pulp. Add one teaspoon salt and two cups boiling water to each quart of corn. Boil three minutes. Pour into hot Ball Jars. Process 100 min utes at 10 pounds pressure. For Whole Kernel canning, cut the corn from the cob and do not scrape. Add one teaspoon salt and two cups boiling water to each quart —Photo courtesy Ball Bros. Co. com. Boil three minutes. Pour into hot Ball Jars. Process 70 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. Whole Kernel corn usually has better color, flavor, and keeping qualities than cream style, according to the Ball Blue Book, from which these directions are taken. To can Corn-on-the-Cob, boil the corn five minutes and pack into hot Ball Jars, adding one teaspoon salt to each quart. Cover with boiling water. Process 75 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. Many like to put up Corn-on-the-Cob because it is a novelty. However, it tends to ab­ sorb the flavor of the cob. Pint jars are preferable and be sure to add one and one-quarter cups of boiling water to each, four cups of Whole Kerne) and two cups of boiling water to each four cups Of Cream Style corn. This facilitates heat penetration and helps prevent the corn turning brown. You can add one-half teaspoon salt and a little sugar, if you wish. Can either field or sweet corn, as you prefer, and can it when it is FRESHl aasffino km }1®, F PREPARED BYAMERICAN FOUNDATION FOR ANIMAL HEALTH TAKE NO CHANCES IN TREATING STOCKLivestock health is a serious dollars- and-cents proposition. The fanner who fails to pay proper attention to Je sure he has proper credentials. Jisease hazards and nutrition problems is making a mistake which may prove fcagic and costly. Nevertheless, needless losses are being reported every day. Animal husbandry authorities are more and more concerned over the problems of careless, indiscriminate "tinkering” with the health of valuable livestock and poultry. Here is a summary of the most reliable advice on the . ight and wrong ways to tackle disease problems: (1) Beware of Imposters. In some localities, unscrupulous individuals are reported preying on livestock owners and claiming to be veterinar-. Ians. Before an owner permits anyone to treat his stock, he should be sure that person .,as the proper credentials and Is licensed to practice veterinary medicine in his state. (2) Go easy on "home remedies.'' Many diseases of livestock are sr similar in appearance and symptoms as to require careful clinical exami­ nation, and frequently laboratory tests as well, to tell them apart. New "wonder drugs” like penelllin, the sulfas, or hormone compounds-'-are useful In cei'tai conditions but Ir, others they are wasted, or may df actual harm. When animals become ill, it is frequently better to do noth tog than to do the wrong thing. (3) a loadeu vaccination syrtagt may be a leadhr weapon unless used by a perron with proper scientific training. Indiscriminate vacctoatior or improper selection of products to be used may do more harm than good- sometimes actually spreading serious plagues of Uveotock while at­tempting to control others. H om e-C anned G reen Beans for N utritious M eals Green beans are a low-acid veget­ able and should be canned with the use of a pressure cooker because the high temperature is better insurance against spoilage and is also the faster method. Select beans with crisp and meaty pods. They should be young and tender and brought fresh from the garden or truck patch. Wash, string. and break or cut the pods into two- inch pieces. Boil five minutes and pack into hot Ball Jars. Add one teaspoon salt to each quart. Cover with water in which cooked. Process snjall young pods 35 min­ utes and large ones 55 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. With a plentiful supply of home-canned green beans you are always prepared to serve a popular, nutritious green vegetable. Jelly and Preserve Canning to Increase HausewHe Kew Kss Sugar to Satisfy Graving icr Sweets The high cost of jellies and pre­ serves is a problem which the house­ wife can now solve by putting up her own this summer for sugar is more plentiful and the price is not too high.

You’ll be surprised how the number of containers filled with spreads will mount and be gratified when they are an easy means of sat­ isfying your family’s large sweet tooth this winter.' The Ball Blue Book, famous home canning guide, contains dozens of good recipes and complete instructions for making jellies, preserves, marmalades, but­ ters, jams and conserves. Here is one of the Blue Book’s excellent recipes for Berry Jams' in­ cluding Blackberry, Dewberry, Lo­ ganberry, Raspberry, Boyscnberry, and Youngberry .Tarns. Warh and crush berries.

Isenhour. High Point. N. C. R4 So many seek an easy way On which their foet can stroll. And hope some bright and 'happy day To-reach a blessed goal. And wear a lsurel on Aelr brow. Bespeaking great renowo, As men and women to them bow In countryside and town. But easy roads on which to trod, We sadly must confess, Lead opposite to where our God Has placed for each success; Therefore we have to take the road Where luxury never sleeps, And make great aims a mighty goad To help us climb the steeps. The easy way but leads you down Where failure makes her grave. And never up to throne and crown To mingle with the brave; Then face the better way of Ufe And struggle for success. Though opposition oft is rtfe To bring you much distress. A Good Idea Paul Leonard thinks taxpayers would fare much better if public business was operated like private business, and public officials would place tbe same value on the public dollar that is placed on the private dollar. Addressing the Klwanis Club Leonard said: ‘!Now tbat government has be- come our biggest business, requiring 25 per cent of tbe national income to meet its cost—an amount even larger than our national food bill I feel that it is high time we begin drafting successful business execu lives for public office I would Hke to see taxpayers put on the same basis of stockholders. I am convinced that if the same sound business principles and practices which have contributed to - success ot our great Industrial corporations and financial instutions were adopt, ed In the management of our gov­ ernment, our federal government could reduce taxes by four or five billion dollars tbls year, apply an eqnal amount to liquidation of bond, ed indebtedness, and still have e- novgh money left out of this year’s estimated tax-take of more than $40 billion to meet necessarv re. quirementsof tbe European Re. covery Program. No greater ser­ vice could be rendered by the civic clubs and kindred organizations than that which would result from agnation-wide movement to create a sence of obligation and responsi­ bility to taxpayers on the part of public officials similar to that dis. played bv officers of onr large cor­ porations toward their stockhold­ ers. It would also be a fine thing if taxpayers would take the same Interest in their dollar Invested in our corporations.” — Statesville Daily. E nd of the Line HpHE gentleman left his country -*■ club slightly worse for wear. Turning into the main highway in his car he decided in his alcoholic daze that the safest procedure was to keep his eyes glued on the car ahead and follow it closely. This he did for some time and he was just congratulating himself on his sagacity when the car ahead sud­ denly stopped and he crashed into it with a loud bang. The irate driver of the first car stuck his head out of his window and glared back angrily. “What’s the big idea?” he bellowed. "What’s the big idea?" the drunk retorted, “why didn’t you stick out your hand?” The other driver’s eyes opened wide with astonishment. “I didn’t think I had to do that in my own garage,” he yelped.

V eteran Leader H eads M arines New Commandant Enlisted in WorldWarIandHas Served Since. WASHINGTON. — The new com­ mandant of the TJ- S. marines, Clif­ ton B. Cates, had never heard of that outfit when he joined up. But when he was sworn in as com­ mandant, he had seven rows of rib­ bons adorning his green blouse. Back in 1917, on the campus of the University of Tennessee, a friend suggested to Cates that they enlist in the marines as a quick way to get into World War I. Game for anything, Cates agreed. He got hit in that war seven times—once by a near-miss shell- burst that left him standing nude as a plucked chicken — but he came out on his feet. No More War Winners. Now, as a major general, Cates says that if there is another war “both sides will lose — there will be no winner,” but feels neverthe­ less that it’s his duty to do his part in keeping the United States mili­ tary establishment ready for any emergency. He believes that atomic and other destructive weapons could easily destroy the economic power of all who take part in another war. Cates, 54, was sworn in as the 19th marine corps commandant with the rank of general. He succeeded Gen. Alexander A. Vandegrift, who re­ tired to the inactive list, and moved to his farm near Lynchburg, Va. The wounds Cates suffered as a second lieutenant and other fortunes of war won him two Purple Hearts, a navy cross and a distinguished service cross with oak leaf cluster in World War I. Came Up Hard Way. “He earned his way from a pla­ toon commander through the com­ pany and field grades,” General Vandegrift said of his successor in a brief review of Cates’ 30 years as a leatherneck. During World War H, Cates was among the first to step ashore at Guadalcanal. He commanded the first marine regiment of the first di­ vision, the men who wear the “Guad­ alcanal” shoulder patch. After Guadalcanal Cates came back to the United States and went to Quantico to head the marine corps schools. A year and a half and two pro­ motions later he was sent again to the Pacific, this time to take over the fourth marine division during its attacks on Tinian and Saipan. The following February he led his division in the battle for Iwo Jima, where 5,58 marines lost their lives and 15,878 others were wounded. In January, 1946, he returned to Quantico as president of the ma­ rine corps equipment board. Last June I, he became commanding general of marine barracks, Quan- tico, and commandant of marine corps schools. Bodies Preserved 2,000 Years Found by Soviet Areheoiogists MOSCOW. — Soviet archeologists announced that they had discovered the almost perfectly preserved bod­ ies of a young girl and her slain companion, who were buried 2,000 years ago. The bodies were located in a loot­ ed tomb in the Altai district of southwestern Siberia, where the in­ tense cold kept the bodies from de­ caying. S. I. Rudenko, archeologist, said the tomb was sealed when the bodies were buried, but that thieves apparently broke into it soon after­ ward. This opened the burial place to Siberia’s icy winds, and created an “ice box” that would preserve the bodies indefinitely. Along with the bodies, scientists found cheese and other food intend­ ed to nourish the boy and girl in the after-world. The food was in such good condition that it still could be eaten, Rudenko said. Marketing Lighter Hogs Stretches Feed Supply By marketing their hogs at just one pound lighter weight, hog men over the country could conserve about seven million bushels of grain, says Wisconsin College of Agricul­ ture. Marketing hogs at lighter weights is one of the best ways to stretch the feed supply. Hogs mar­ keted before they weigh 230-240 pounds usually require less feed to put on a pound of gain than hogs fed to heavier weight.

As drastic and as devastating as war is, I am confident that the eco­ nomic troubles of many European countries are not traceable entirely to the aggravations of war. Fam­ ines, wars, oppressions: these are symptoms, not causes. Certain na­ tions, like Switzerland, fare surpris­ ingly well amidst the decay and chaos so common in Europe. Little Switzerland is not hollering for help. She is a froe enterprise country. Of course. Switzerland was not a be1! srem t. and hence was spared some sw.ilo-e of war.

Re­ fits have it that the standard of ■ :-a ti -' p 'r well up toward pre- ar levels. Newspaper reports have called attention to Belgium’s airline, jabcna, which reported its net profit for the year at $2,800,OOO.This has happened despite the fact it started out with practically nothing after the war. The airline had lost most of its equipment, and had to get help from the government to go ahead. This is high contrast to what is happening to British airlines. Owned entirely by the socialist government and operated by them, the British airlines find difficulty in keeping their losses down to that figure. The difference is that Britain blundered In choosing, and Belgium chose wisely. Surely the European neigh­ bors of Belgium will notice her good example. Planned economy some­ times looks good on paper, but it is free economy that permits people to use their initiative and work out their own salvation. Matter of Teamwork I am not at all surprised to hear these things about Belgium. I was there in the summer of 1946. One very remarkable thing impressed me. And in this there is a lesson for our own people: labor was at that time cooperating in Belgium with the management of industry and with government, in keeping prices down. America has not achieved that much teamwork, and we need it. Dangers still threaten In the battle against inflation. In Belgium, labor leaders were saying that it was necessary to in­ crease production and thereby bring down prices rather than put up wages and keep prices high. They reasoned that in the long run this would be the best for labor. It is not surprising that their standard of liv­ ing is reported good by those who have recently toured the country. Freedom Wins As a result of that policy, and be­ cause she kept her private owner­ ship and private management of in­ dustry, Belgium has come back more rapidly than other European countries that were hit by war. This experience is only another link in the strong chain dt evidence that free men working in a free economy are happier and better off than they could ever be under some kind of totalitarian government—any kind. Choosing freedom of enterprise, Bel­ gium has shown wisdom.

Today a true story of the part social security played in the life of the Merriam family Mr. and Mrs. Michael, age 14, and Susan, age 10 • The names used are not the actual names but the facts are authentic. Tbe first scene of the story is in Merriam home; the second, in tbe field office of tbe Social Security Administration. Scene I-Home of the Merriam Pamily. Tbe Merriams are a proud and happy family the day my story be­ gins. They have just arrived home from the graduation of Mi- chael at Grammar School. They discuss the fine speech he made snd tbe commencement exercises in general. They express high hopes for Michael and Mr. Met- riam seems very thankful that be is in a good position to help him through High School and later College. This graduation picture i- no different from thousands of similar situations all over tue U-Inited States for schools are closing. B t in tbe curious mingling of e- vents which we call “Fate’’, trouble lies in store for the Merriams. The morning aftet this happy event, Mr. Merriam leaves for his work looking forward to his return home for bis wife tells him she is having roast beef and apple pie for (lit ner. But he never returned a- ive. He is killed on his way home. Tragedy enters another home at a tin e when everything seems bright­ est. The plan for the family is con.pletely changed. A week later, Mrs. Merriam and he children take council to deter­ mine what is next in store for them. Michael says someone from the soc ial security office talked to their graduation class about social secur­ ity. He remembers this person said something about payments for their mother in case their fathers died. Mrs. Merriam, as a result of this information, says she will visit the social security office' tbe n> xt day. ScenelI—Social Security Office. Mrs. Merriam calls at the field office and the claims assistant talks to her about the employment of her husband; their children under 18; their birth certificates; her marriage certificate • all needed in develop, ing her claim to benefits. Mr. Merriam had averaged $225 a month since JanuaTy 1,1937. Mrs. Merriam is told that she will gtt $74 a month until Michael is 18. After that, $33 a month until Susan is r8—a total of $6,906 for the 8 year period. Mrs. Merriam’s ex­ pression shows relief.' She can see her way clear to keep Michael and Susan with her and in school for, with tbe insurance her husband left plus social security benefits, sbe actually has “security”. THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKS VILLE, N. C. U Low-Sost Housing Bill PO U R MEN DESERVE chief credit for senate passage of the Taft- ElIender-Wagner bill, which will pro­ vide low-cost public housing for an estimated 500,000 families in the next five years. They are: G.O.P. Sen­ ators Charles Tobey of New Hamp­ shire, Co-Author Bob Taft of Ohio, Ralph Flanders of Vermont and Democrat John Sparkman of Ala­ bama. Only insiders know how tirelessly Tobey worked to get the housing measure out of the banking and cur­ rency committee, which he heads'. Almost equal credit belongs to Flan­ ders, who chairmanned the sub-com­ mittee, and who teamed with Taft in blocking last-minute efforts by the real estate lobby to gut the legisla­ tion. Sparkman was a pillar of strength on the Democratic side. So was South Carolina’s Burnet Maybahk, who did yeoman service lining up Democratic support both in commit­ tee and on the floor. Democrats Alben Barkley of Kentucky, senate minority leader, and Scott Lucas of Illinois also struck some potent blows for war vets and others af­ fected by the housing shortage dur­ ing the floor fight. On the “debit” side, the colors of the real estate lobby were car­ ried by G.O.P. Senators Joe Mc­ Carthy of Wisconsin and Harry Cain of Washington. Both battled to the last against the long-range public housing program. G.O.P. Sen. James Kem of Missouri and Spessard Holland of Florida, Dem­ ocrat, gave them vigorous support. Major house opponents of the housing bill are Banking and Cur­ rency Chairman Jesse Wolcott of Michigan, who h a s persistently blocked house action, together with Charles Fletcher of San Diego, Calif., who runs a real estate lobby of his own.* * « Baskstsge in Italy NOW THAT THE ITALIAN elec­ tions are over, some of the backstage developments can be told. One factor which influenced Ital­ ian votes was the state department’s offer to return Trieste to Italy—an offer which the Russians eventually turned down. What wasn’t known was that Tito had been planning to make exactly the same offer himself—on behalf of Russia. But U. S. intelligence services picked up this fact, and we beat Tito to it. This was some of the fastest footwork the state de­ partment has put across in some time. Another factor was Ambassador Dunn’s insistence that the American fleet get out of Italian waters. Some of the military men around the White House didn’t like his advice, thought the fleet should remain. But Dunn argued that its presence gave political ammunition to the Commu­ nists. He was right. The fleet was withdrawn, and the Commies had to pipe down. One thing which nearly upset the applecart was the amendment by Congressman O’Konski of Wisconsin making Marshall plan money avail­ able to Spain. Until this was re­ versed in the senate, it had a bad back-fire in Italy.* * * Alien Smuggling THE CLOAK - AND - DAGGER sleuthing of a Pennsylvania con­ gressman soon may blow the lid off a notorious racket—smuggling aliens into the U. S. Congressman John McDowell of Wilkinsburg, Pa., has been itiaking personal trips to Panama and Mex­ ico tracking down the border-hop­ ping of Communist spies, war crim­ inals and other undesirables. He has uncovered organized rings that smuggle political * riff-raff into the United States for a fee, often with political string-pulling. For some time, McDowell has won­ dered how the dregs of Europe could get—into the United States, while deserving refugees were barred. Worst hole in the dike, be found, was Windsor on the Canadian bor­ der. A parade of notorious Euro­ peans passed right under official noses, armed with hand-out visi­ tors’ permits, good for only six months. Once on the inside, how­ ever, it was a simple matter to get the visas extended. Otlrer undesirables took a less legal route, secretly flew across the bor­ der without any papers. In one case, a Frenchman brought a load of Com­ munists and ex-Nazis across the At­ lantic in the same boat. McDowell predicts that his inves­ tigation will shqck the country when it becomes public. The state and justice departments already have asked to see the secret testimony of one border official, U. S. Consul John Bankhead at Windsor. After word leaked out that Bank­ head, had talked to McDowell, he received a bottle of poisoned whisky. Later a mysterious assailant fired two shots at him and fled. McDowell has called upon the justice depart­ ment to protect Bankhead’s life. As a result of McDowell’s inves­ tigation, the United States has closed both borders, except for persons with overwhelming proof of their business in this country. W f K t y AW W S A N A L Y S IS Hoiise Group Approves M easure Te Draft Men into Armed Forces; Hope for Palestine Agreem ent Ebbs ____________By Bill Sctioentgen, W NU Staff ,Writer________ if.) OLEO TAX: Fizkt Ahead One of the most pressing problems members of congress have had to decide this year is whether their po­ litical bread is spread with butter or oleomargarine. It is further complicated by the fact that they might, in choosing one or the other, be letting the gravy get away from them. For good or ill, however, the house of representatives made its decision. It passed by a vote of 260 to 106 a bill to repeal all federal oleomarga­ rine taxes which have been on the books for 62 years. Those taxes are itemized as fol­ lows: 10 cents a pound on colored oleo, 1/4 cent a pound on uncolored,. $600 a year on manufacturers, $480 on wholesalers of colored oleo, $200 on wholesalers of the uncolored product, $48 on retailers of colored oleo and $6 on retailers of uncolored. Even if the federal taxes were re­ pealed, it still would be against the law to sell colored oleo In 20 states. Nevertheless, the house had rid it­ self of the matter and now it was up to the senate, where a battle royal was in prospect. Reason the oleo tax issue has a stiff fight ahead in the senate is that senators are elected by voters of entire states, rather than by vot­ ers of districts within the states as are most representatives. The result, in this case, is a split in the sentiment of constituents of many senators. For example, big northern states such as Illinois, Wisconsin, Michi­ gan and Ohio, are composed of con­ sumer cities and producer farms. The country districts include dairy farmers and soy bean growers. Con­ sumers in cities want repeal of the taxes, and so do the soy bean men whose product is used in manufac­ ture of oleo. The dairy farmers, naturally, want the tax to remain. The dairy interests are strong. Their supporters in congress have been able to retain the oleo tax by the simple process of shelving any repeal bills in committee. It hap­ pened to the current bill in the house agricultural committee, but a peti­ tion circulated among house mem­ bers forced the bill on to the floor where it was approved. Clouds in the East TURKbtI im» EGYPT ARAB IfACUi (EDITOB’S NOTEt When opinions arc expressed In these columns, they are those etWestern Newspaper Onion's news analysts and not necessarily of this non DRAFT BELL: On the Way Yielding to the pressure of the times, congress was putting its hand gingerly to the business of passing a selective service act which would give the nation’s armed forces a total manpower of slightly more than two million in two years. The house armed services commit­ tee had approved the measure, after hearing Defense Secretary James Forrestal term it an “excellent” one, and passed it on to the floor of the house for debate. Thus, for the first time since be­ fore the war, congress was facing squarely the momentous issue of a national draft. That this was hap­ pening during the hair-trigger days of an election year only served to underline the apparent urgency of the matter. As approved by the armed services committee, the bill would: i Raise total authorized manpower of the armed forces to 2,005,882 —army 837,000, air force 502,000, navy and marine corps 666,882. o Require registration of men from 18 through 30, with those from 19 through 25 liable for two years’ service. O Exempt most veterans from further service, but those under 31 would have to register. a Allow seizure of industrial plants by the government if Biey re­ fused to give top priorities to arma­ ment orders. As it stood, the draft plan was conceded to have a good chance of passage at this session of congress. But complications were being threat­ ened by the senate armed services committee which seemed inclined to combine a universal military train­ ing measure with the draft bill. The committee was waiting for Army Secretary Kenneth Royall to recommend details of a bill to call 161,000 18-year-olds for a year’s train­ ing. They would be taken in addi­ tion to men procured through the draft. As a combination, that didn't look so good to many Republicans. Rep. Walter G. Andrews (Rep., N. Y.), chairman of the house armed service committee, called the idea “utterly foolish, inconceivable and not called for.” Amateur and professional mili­ tary experts now are weighing the pros and cons of “war” in the Holy Land. Palestine is completely en­ circled by Arab states except for its Mediterranean coastline. Nu­ merals indicate estimated fighting strength of the various Arab states. Jewish forces in Palestine are said to number about 75,000. JERUSALEM: Confused Time was running out in Palestine, and with it the hope for averting a Jewish-Arab civil war for possession of Jerusalem. In the waning days before Great Britain removed her troops from the Holy Land upon expiration of the British mandate on May 15, Pales­ tine had become a savagely con­ fused, moribund state. Bitterly, the United Nations trus-^ teeship council virtually abandoned its efforts to devise an effective plan to safeguard Jerusalem from ravish­ ment by the warring factions. Dele­ gates could not hit upon a scheme that could be enforced. Nor was any Arab-Jewish agree­ ment in sight which might result in a truce necessary to give any U. N. plan a chance. Like a little boy watching his father trying to get his kite out of a tree, the council looked hopefully to Jerusalem where the Red Cross was doing its best to bring a halt to the fighting. As far as the threatened invasion of Palestine by neighboring Arab states was concerned, no one seemed able to sum up the situation accur­ ately. Jews were insisting, in the face of denials, that Syrian and Lebanese armies had invaded northern Pales­ tine, and the British were reported to have rushed troops back into the country to deal with what they called a “seriously deteriorated” situation. Still an unknown factor in the rapidly climaxing events was wily old King Abdullah of Trans-Jordan. Commander of the finest army in Arabia, the spike-helmeted Arab Le­ gion, he had been talking big about invading Palestine from the East. He had been talking, too, about mak­ ing himself king of Palestine. His ambition is a Middle East amalgam of states that would be in the nature of a greater Syria. Experts were not discounting the role Abdullah and his power-politick­ ing could play in the drama. In the end he could .turn out to be the cat­ alytic agent that might bring the uh- regenerate events in Palestine to s reasonable, if not a happy, conclu­ sion. COVENANTS: Jrr si Paper In a decision which may produce more extensive reaction than any designed civil rights legislative pro­ gram, the U. S. supreme court hand­ ed down a decision that, in effect, outlaws so-called restrictive cove­ nants which bar racial or religious minorities from buying or occupying property in many areas throughout the country. Declaring the decision, Chief Jus­ tice Fred Vinson held that enforce­ ment of restrictive covenants by state or federal courts was a viola­ tion of the 14th amendment. That amendment, adopted in 1868, reads in part: “No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States . . . nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” The supreme court’s decision did not declare that restrictive cove­ nants, as such, are violations of the constitution; but by ruling that it is unconstitutional for the courts to en­ force the covenants it reduced them, legally, to mere scraps of paper. For the most part, covenants are agreements entered upon by real estate promoters and buyers of land or homes. Purchasers agree not to sell their land or homes to persons barred by the covenant, terms of the agreement running from an average of 25 or 50 years to “perpetuity.” QOLD BRICKS HIQHER InfEafon Hits Swindler, Victims Inflation has hit the swindler and his victims, just like everybody else in the postwar world. . Cost o£ being rooked by various popular I -auds and rackets has gone up in proportion to the rise In the swindlers’ living costs, a report by the family economics bureau of Northwestern National Life Insur­ ance company reveals. Professional charity solicitors, who take 50 to 90 per cent of the pub­ lic’s donations before turning over the balance to the organization in whose name they operate, now bold­ ly ask donations of $10 and $25 in­ stead of the $2 to $5 at prewar scale. Their “benefit dance” tickets now cost $2 each, often more, against 50 cents to a dollar in prewar days. Beetle Is Voracious Enemy of Potatoes Dusting or Spraying Wiii Control Menace Ranking as the most serious threat to the grower of potatoes ahd other vegetables is the Colorado potato beetle, which is prevalent throughout many areas of the country. The beetle is yellowish in color, stout bodied, about two-fifths of an inch in length and with wing covers bearing 10 longitudinal stripes. The larva or “slug” is soft - bodied, red­ dish in color and reaches a maxi­ ms um size of about three - fifths of an inch in length. Late in June when the po­ tato plants begin to appear above ground, the beetles attack the foliage and lay their orange-colored eggs on the under side of the leaves. The eggs hatch in a few days into voracious larvae which, after feed­ ing for about 10 days, leave the plants and enter the soil to complete their development. They emerge as adult beetles by the latter part of July. A second brood is produced in August and adults of this genera­ tion winter in the soil. Both the larvae and adults are severe defoli­ ators of the plants. To rid the potatoes, tomatoes, egg plants, peppers, ground cherries and cabbage plants of the Colorado po­ tato beetle, dust or spray with paris green, calcium arsenate or cryolite. Hand picking of the beetles and crushing of the egg masses is effec­ tive if done often. Bam Cleaners Barn cleaners shonld have all mechanical parts, of simple de­ sign, yet sturdy and easy to con­ trol. It is possible to thoroughly clean the average dairy barn by use of mechanical barn cleaners. A clean barn is the first requisite for clean and healthy cows. In­ stallation of a mechanical cleaner, such as illustrated above, will do away with much of the drudgery of this farm operation. Insects Launch Early Rttack on Vegetables With the first reasonably warm days, insects will make their ad­ vent. These will be the green worm and lice on cabbage and the Colorado beetles and black fleabeetles on po­ tatoes. The cabbage green worm comes shortly in the wake of the familiar white-and-yellow “butterflies” that go bobbing about, dropping eggs as they touch the leaves of the cabbage. This chewing insect is killed by poi­ son; not one of the arsenates, how­ ever. but the safe insecticide, ro- tenone. The best way is dusting, with a strength of three-fourths of I per cent of rotonone. as most pre­ pared dusts have. The first appli­ cation should be made when the “butterflies” first come, then re­ peated once or twice ten days apart. Sugar Beets Considered Good Crop for Dairymen The suger beet is an important cash crop, according to University of Wisconsin. Years of extensive production prove that the crop blends in well with dairy farming, makes good use of farm manure and leaves the soil loose and friable. Beets seldom are damaged bv either late spring or early fall frosts. There are few crops that leave the soil in as good condition. The tops are very valuable feed for cattle and sheep. They may be pastured, partially cured and put into trench silos, or used as silage. Evergreen Windbreak Protects Farmstead When planning the layout for im­ proving the farmstead include a good evergreen windbreak to pro­ vide protection from prevailing winds. Plant the windbreak back about 150 feet from the buildings that are to be protected. As for depth of the windbreak, one row is good, two rows better and three rows will give still more protection. Space the trees about 18 feet apart. Inlarnalional UnUorm Sunday School Lomom By m an d newtoh d d SCRIPTURE: Daniel I.DEVOTIONAL READING: I Timotby 8:11- Daniel Stands By His Convictions Lesson for May 30, 1948 D r. N ew ton 'A picket frozen on d itty— A m other starved fo r her brood— Socrates d rin kin g the hem lock— A n d Jesus on the rood ” SUCH a picture we have before us in Sunday’s lesson. All you need to do to get this dramatic pic­ ture is read the first chapter of Daniel. You will then feel anew the meaning of that cherished state­ ment, “ 'Tis conviction that con- vinceth.”« . • BRAVE TO DO RIGHT WE GET the first draught of this tonic in verses 8-9, 14-15 and 17. “But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile him­ self with the por­ tion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank . . .” He was brave enough to take a stand for what he knew was right. Which reminds me of the story told of Henry Ward Beecher, when yet a small boy. A teacher in the school he attended asked, a boy a question which he promptly an­ swered. The teacher appeared dis­ pleased, and told the boy to sit down. He asked several other boys the same question, and got the same answer. Finally ■ he asked Beecher, and Beecher gave the same an­ swer, but refused to sit down when the teacher frowned at him. Seeing that Beecher was going to defend the answer, the teacher said, “Boys, you were all correct, but only Beecher was sure enough to stand his ground. I was simply trying to teach you the lesson that you must stand by what you know is right.” . . . DARE TO STAND ALONE DANIEL knew that he was taking an unpopular position, but he was willing to be alone so long as he knew he was right. He knew that the consequences would take care of themselves.- That is the quality of character which America needs today in her youth. Iti is easy enough to be popular, if you run with the gang; but re­ member this—the gang is always heading downhill. Daniel stood by his convictions when it was costly. In the final windup, he was the head ENDURING INVESTMENTS DANIEL, winning his point, made every hour count toward vic­ tory. He not only abstained from strong drink, but used his superior strength to serve the king in such way that his talents were sought out and brought into larger fields of opportunity. Standing by his convictions, he had won over those who at first were disposed to poke fun at him. By superb performance, due to clear thinking and high purpose, Daniel made enduring investments that paid off in big dividends. He did not do right for reward, but because he did right, the reward was inevit­ able. And so it will be. with every young man and woman who pur­ poses in his or her heart to do right. . . . GOD’S FAVOR IWANT you to look carefully at verse 17. “God gave them knowl­ edge and skill in all learning and wisdom; and Daniel had under­ standing in all visions and dreams.” It is impossible to account for Daniel’s fortitude apart from his implicit trust in God. Remember the incident of Daniel opening his window toward Jersualem in prayer? God never fails those who stake their all on Hiip. He will not—can­ not let them fail. It was because of God’s favor that Daniel and his companions proved themselves ten times better, than the young men who defiled themselves. “Who sides with God must always win.” {Copviiqht by the InternationiiJ Council o!

SUBSCRIPTION RATES: O'JE YEAR IN N, CAROLINA SIX MONTHS IN N CAROLINA ONF YEAR. OUTStnE STATI - SiX MONTHS. OUTSIDE STATE There are five good men in the race for Countv Commissioner on the Republican ticket in the May 29th primarv. Only three of these men can be nominated. It is up to all Republicans in the county to go to the primary next Saturday and cast their votes for the three men of their choice. The office of county commissioner is one of the most important offices to be filled. Honest, level headed men should be chosen for these im­ portant positions. It is your duty as good citizens to go to the polls and vote for the men you 'think should fill these offices. Your Health De­ partment Whooping cough is the most fatal infectious disease that attacks small babies. It causes more deaths during the first six months of life than at anv other period, and it is dangerous during the whple pre­ school period. When whooping cough is sus pec ted, your family doctor should always be consulted. The doccor can help prevent dangerous com­ plications such as pneumonia, ear infections, chronic lung infections. In some cases, he may want to give the whooping cough serum. This serum will often temporarily protect exposed infants or make the disease less severe. Whooping cough should be re­ ported to the Health Department. There are good reasons for this also. We will make an investiga tioh and trv to learn the names of children exposed. If your ehild was exposed you can then be war­ ned and can consult with your doctor as to whether serum or vaccine is needed. Sick children and exposed children that have not been vaccinated will be quar­ antined, for a period. This is not only for the protection of other people, but for your child’s pro tection as well. If allowed to leave home he may acquire secon­ dary infections that lead to com­ plications. I The Health Department also has J vaccine available which causes a child to build up his own protec ; tion against whooping cough. This protection develops too slowly to be useful in a child that has been exposed or is already sick. It is given to well children two months of age or older. It should be giv-j en at as early an age as possible so as to protect during the period of: greatest danger. EUGENE E. TAYLOR, M. D. ( Health Officer. Pvt. Robert White The body of Pvt. Robert L.?

P attern N o-.Size_ FIRST AIDto the AILING HOUSE by RogerC.WIiitinaii QUESTION: When the former tenants moved from here they scored the floors with their furni­ ture. Is there any way I can re­ move the score marks? ANSWER: Scraping with an elec­ tric floor sanding machine should tako out most of the marks. If any slight hollow place remains after sanding, you may be able to make them less noticeable by building them up with several thin coats of a quick-drying varnish. QUESTION: I have a dark soft wood floor that I don’t know what to do with. It is single flooring. If I were to lay linoleum squares, would the floor have to be smooth before cementing them down? ANSWER: Linoleum must be laid on a smooth surface. If your floor is rough and uneven, it should be sanded smooth. The alternative would be to cover the flooring with plywood, which gives a good surface for covering with linoleum. QUESTION: Please tell me how and what to use to paint the bath­ room wallpaper, and how to go about it. The paper sticks well to the wall. ANSWER: If you do not mind taking a chance on having the paper loosen, apply two coats of enamel undercoater and a final coat of good quality enamel. Do not use flat paint or any kind of calcimine. What about paint- with the spraying QUESTION: Jng a house method? ANSWER: If well done by a pro­ fessional the job should be entirely satisfactory provided, of course, he uses top quality paint, the surfaces are warm and dry, and the weather is warm and 'dry.

Aikanstt -t T r u e o r F a l s e ? “American business doesn’t make enough profit.” Do you think that statement is true or false? Many people haven’t the vaguest idea. Some folks have been fed propa­ ganda which seems to show at ev­ ery turn that the main purpose of in­ dustry is to exploit the poor man. These persons are side-tracked into the wrong answer. Why should we ever forget that American business under our system of freedom of op­ portunity has itself done more than anything else to make the poor man rich? That is industry’s goal!" There is one group, however, that is well acquainted with the fact that business in general does not make the profit it ought to make to keep our system going ahead safely. This group is made up of commu­ nist and socialist agitators, as well as fellow-travelers. They know our system depends upon honest profit incentives. The communist program in this country is planned around the fact that the average American in­ dustry does not make enougli profit. They are counting on that. On Taking Over Theirs is no short range program. It is long range. The commies do not believe that our industrial enter­ prises, on their present profit mar­ gins, can survive a temporary de­ pression. These would-be dictators are strict believers in depressions. They always count on taking over after the next “boom and bust.” What we must not fail to see is that our American system, if not held back, has the ability to triumph over economic setbacks. We always come back stronger than before. It is unfortunate that the general public sees industry as making ex­ orbitant profits. Actually, most peo­ ple do not know that industry’s profit level is as low as it is. Take a spe­ cific industry for example. Accord­ ing to surveys, many think the steel industry takes for profit as much as 5 cents out of every dollar of sales. This is wrong as can be. During the five recent “boom” years, just 3.5 cents out of each dollar taken in by the steel industry was profit. And much of this 3.5 cents was “plowed back under.” Profit Means Jobs We took upon steel as being the leader of our manufacturing indus­ tries. Steel is basic. It supplies the raw materials and semi-processed materials which are the chief need of manufacturing plants today. Our daily lives are conditioned by the f place of steel in modern civilization. I This is one reason why we should be concerned about the decline of profits shown by the steel industry, on a long term basis. Why would the agitators like prof­ its to be less? They would like to see the government “take over” any of our major industries. That would bring them a step nearer their own goal: “taking over.” How has the profit of steel and other industries, despite big increases in sales, been kept so low? The main reasons: enormous operating costs and heavy taxation. Only a very large and effi­ ciently managed industry could operate successfully under these conditions. Steel, like other industries, re­ quires constant reinvestment of new funds. Moreover, a large portion of profits have to be returned to the business. In 1946, when net income was about 5.5 cents per dollar of sales about 2.5 cents was put back in the steel business. This left only 3 cents to be given to the owners and investors. It is easy to see that if industry is not allowed to make prof­ its, our business cannot continue to make goods we need and offer jobs for all. Adequate plofit is a bless­ ing, not a crime. Couple Gefs Wrong N.mber; Just a Moving Day Tragedy INDIANAPOLIS, IND. - It was moving day for Mr. and Mrs. Wil­ liam F. Fulks. They moved, lock, stock and bar­ rel, put in light bulbs and had a telephone installed in a newly built South Side home. The house numbers weren’t all up along the row of new houses. That was the rub. ■ They found they had moved into the wrong house. They belonged in the one next door. DAVIE BRICK COMPANY DEALERS IN GOOD COAL Day Phone 194 - Night Phone 119 Mocksville. N. C.

Plowing is one of the most important steps in insect control because it interferes with the natural and normal activi­ ties of the insects for living through the winter. Insects wintering above the ground can stand severe cold but net burying in moist cold MO, and '.hose below cannot live. HUNTING for More BUSINESS T ry O er A ds Contortionist Needed A mother was playing with her two-year-old child, who had recently learned the alphabet. Raising her arm straight above her head, she asked: “What letter is this?” “An I,” Karl gleefully responded. Then the mother stopped but Karl, eager to continue the game, begged: “Mummie, now make a W!” Obvious Source Father—Don’t you think our son gets his intelligence from me? Mother — He must—I’ve still got mine. Oh, No? W ife-I think I hear burglars. Are you awake? Husband—No! P o s t h o l e D i g g e r This posthole digger was built by Clyde Hall, Bradford, III. He says it will put a nine-inch hole down three feet in Illinois soil in three minutes. It was built of heavy materials in his farm shop and required some large welds, A car differential provides a way to use tractor power to dig postholes.

Dear Dad: This trailer truck is powered with a midget electric motor and employs direct front wheel drive. It is acti­vated by one or more No. 950 Ever- eady flashlight cells (drawings show two cells hooked up in series) and is easy to build. It is composed of two complete units: the cab or engine unit and the truck section which is piv­ oted loosely to the cab platform di­rectly above the cab rear wheels. The truck unit may have twin wheels as shown or single wheels can be used at a saving of about ten cents in costs. Wheels used are the cheapest model airplane wheels obtainable and are advertised by most model firms.Start operations by making up ful.- size plans of the wooden parts. This is done following the scaled draw­ ings, Figures I and 2, which are squared to simplify dimensions. Exact adherence to the given dimensions is not important and in fact the over­ all size of the truck unit can be re­duced if preferred. Top and base or bottom of the truck should be the same size and shape but the base must be cut out to clear the wheels and also to allow small radius turns. These pieces are later joined with a single length of light cardboard which is cemented in place. The backpiece should be simply pinned in place to permit quick removal for servicing the batteries. Before as­sembling the pieces, put in the switch as shown and then cut out, bend to shape and mount the battery clips. The truck unit can then be com­ pleted and laid aside. The cab unit requires no explana­ tion as far as the chassis goes: The body itself can be carved from solid balsa or built up to suit—the lighter the better. The motor is screwed di­ rectly onto the chassis as shown. Three 3/4” screws are required here. It will be seen that the front axle, which is a continuation of the mot >r shaft, requires some sort of extension axle. This can be formed of two short lengths of steel wire or pieces of nail and two short lengths of tubing. These can be soldered together or, in a pinch, joined with cement. Wheel track on the model described is 2 3/4” but may be reduced to 2 1/2” to suit. If you find after hooking up the wir­ ing that your truck runs backwards, don’t worry: All you need to do is reverse the batteries in their clip. Sincerely yours, HomeCanued Dill Pickles Should Be on Your Shelves Put Up Sum* Kusher Style for Variety In Taste That craving for Dill Pickles can be satisfied early and often if gen­ erous jars of home - canned Dill Pickles are put on the shelf during the height of the pickle season. It’s a good idea to put up some jars of Kosher style for variety in taste appeal. Here are the ingredients for Dill Pickles: 35 to 40 fresh cucumbers 2 tablespoons mixed spices 54 pound dill 2 cups salt 2 gallons water 2 cups vinegar Wash and dry cucumbers. Put a layer of dill and one half of the spices in a stone jar. Add the cu­ cumbers. Put the remaining spices and dill on top of the cucumbers. Boil salt, water, and vinegar two minutes. Cool to room temperature and pour over cucumbers. Cover with a plate weighted down to hold cu­ cumbers under the brine. Keep at an even temperature (68-72 degrees F.). Remove scum each day. The pickles are ready for canning when they are crisp, uniform in color, and well-flavored with dill. This usually requires from two to four weeks. Test by taste! Pack the cured pickles into hot Ball Jars, cover with hot brine and seal. Note: Strain the brine in which the pickles are cured and boil five minutes, or make fresh brine. If the pickles are to be stored a long time, they should be processed in water bath 15 minutes at simmering. To make Kosher Pickles, add one small clove garlic, one bay leaf, one- half teaspoon mustard seed, two tablespoons sugar, one piece red pepper, and one-half cup vinegar to one or one and one-half cups of strained brine. Boil two minutes n::d pour while hot over plain dill pickles after they are packed into the jurs. H om e-C anned G reen Beans (or N utritious M eals Green beans are a low-acid veget­ able and should be canned with the use of a pressure cooker because the high temperature is better insurance against spoilage and is also the faster method. Select beans with crisp and meaty pods. They should be young and tender and brought fresh from the garden or truck patch. Wash, string. and break or cut the pods into two- inch pieces. Boil five minutes and pack into hot Ball Jars. Add one teaspoon salt to each quart. Cover with water in which rooked. Process small young pods 35 min­ utes and large ones 55 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. With a plentiful supply of home-canned green beans you are always prepared to serve a popular, nutritious green vegetable.
