03-Marchfelf'-' PAGE POUR Forty-Five U. S. Generals Outrank George Washington WASHINGTON—A recent check up in the Dcfenie Depertment re­ vealed that as this li written there are OWtaiB and d»ad> 45 generals in the XJidted Statei who outrank George Washington. General o( the Armlei John J. Pershing heads the list. General Pershing received this special rank after World War 1 and Is the only American ever to hold It. General of the Armies and General of the Army, both five-star ranks, did not exist in Washington’s day. In many Instances the Army acted years after an offlcer's de­ parture from active duly or after his death to give him promotion. Ulysses S. Grant. William T. Sher- roan and Philip Sheridan achieved four-star rank long alter the ClvU War. But the Army promotion boards never have done anything about stepping up the rank of the ilrat commander.Army historians say a Congres­ sional Act of 1799, while General Washington was holding the offtce of commander with the rank of lieutenant general, undoubtedly was intended to provide the rank of full general for him. But> the historians report, no record can be found to show the appointment was made then or since, for the man who became first President of the United States.'As the list standi new. the officer who immediately eut*ranks Gen­ eral Washington In the official list of high offlcers is Gen. Charles L. Boltti, promoted last July and slated to become the new Army Vice Chief of Staff. Camera to Prove Secrets on Mars LOS ANGELES - Dr. Edison PetUt of Mount Wilson Observa- tory reports a major 76-year-old scientific mystery—an apparent network of canals on Mars—may be solved next summer. It the elusive lines are found to be filled with water, new argu­ ments regarding the possible ex­ istence of life on the neighbor plant will be precipitated.A special motion picture cam­ era, Dr. Pettit says, has been prepared to be attached to the world’s second largest telescope, the 100-inch lens on Mount Wil­son, in hopes of getting the firF' clear picture of the canals. From July 8, 1954, for about weeks, the planet will be only 4' 000,000 miles from the earth, with 5,000,000 miles of the closest n= proach, and Mars will circle << rectly between the earth and su- 'Mars may be 200,000,000 mile away when it Is on the far side u the sun, and is then too remote to photograph advantageously.

India there is one d the most exclusive religions in the world, the religion ot the Parseet. There are more Baptists in Georgia alone than there arc Partees in the whole world.. If you aren't a Parsee bom you con never get in. Even if you marry ft Parsee it does you no good; you are an outsider the rest of your life. That is precisely the opposite of the Cliristian religion. Bniy Graham preachcs to thou­ sands of people night after night and -ht invites every one of those people in the great tabernacles and auditoriums to be­ come a Christian. Tht congregations ara not screened. No one has to pass ■n Intelligence test or an FBI screen­ ing or • financial credit rating, or any tort of pre- vloua sifting what- Dr. Foreman ever. Billy Sunday did not know, of course, his audicnces by name. AU he knew is that they were peo­ ple. And being a Bible ChrisUan be knew that wherever people are, there God*a Invitation holds good. All People A rU ost Two things are quite clear from the New Testament. One is that all people are lost The other is that God does not want any one to stay lost. Jesus spoke of hlm- sell as the Shepherd and of people as lost sheep. To be ‘lost” docs not mean to be hopelessly ac­ cursed. Any one who has ever seen a lost sheep knows what a forlwn sight it is, bedraggled, be- wlUered, not likely ever to get home unless some one shows it the way. Lost cats need nobody’s sympathy; they will find their way bade all righL But we arc not lost cats or homing pigeons, we a n lost sheep. That is a picturc- way of saying that unless God seta us on the right track and leads us home, we are all ot us more likely to go wrong than to go’ right. A lost sheep has no pride. Some men have said that pride Is the root ot all sins. Jesus did not seem to think so; weakness and stupidity account for just as many •Ins as pride. God Invites AllGod never meant heaven to be •xclxisive. He never meant us to be snobbish about our religion. There aro some mistakes here, com­ monly made, which need clearing up. One is that because God wants all men to be saved, he is going to save everybody regardless. Now it ^ we knew ol the New TesU- meni were this parable ot the sheep, we might suppose God would work it that way and bring all people to his eternal home re­gardless of how they felt about It, as a shepherd does with his sheep or a cowhand with his little dogles. But the rest of'the gospels show us that God deals with us as free men. Heaven is not a sack i into which God dumps everybody i sooner or later, with their leave or without it. Heaven has a door, i and the name of the door is Jesus > Christ. You can put that in differ­ ent ways too. Christ is the only door to the Christian life. He is the only door to the kingdom of God. If we wish to belong to God's Idngdom we cannot turn away from Christ, we must come to God through him. But another mistake is to suppose that God of Ceedi of Davie Couniy, North Cnrotina. default having been made in the payoMol of the indebtedness thereby secured, and said derd of trust being by the terms thereof subject lo foreclosure, the under­ signed Trustee ¥/\\l offer for sals st pnbllc auction to the hisbest bidder for cash, at the CourihouHe door in Mockavflle.

Lathrap MV FATHER-IN-LAW is a wil; guy. but I never thought he’i so lo the lengths he did to fix iliinss for me. Sometimes I think he .'•ctunlly hates me. the way he talks about Ana- bol having to work so hnrd and the kids needing shoes and ‘hmgs. Then again he’s pret­ ty d£ceni ‘o me. You never know. So I a'iways try to keep my big mouth shut and let him think he’s a big shot. That’s the way it was last Sunday. We were cruising along home from visiting Anabel’s brother and fomily in the suburbs of Chicago. C. A. and Grace were in the back scat wrestling with our kids as usual, with Anabel putting in her lick from the right front. “Sit down. Hap, and look out the window for a change.” •In my day—” C. A. began. "Now Charles, we all know in reaUy docs not want to come in to “the marriage supper” as Jesus put it once. His Invitation is to aU, really to all; but he never forces any one to accept. • • • The Church for All A common sight, and a sad sight too, is a “class church.” It doesn’t make any difference what class it may be; it may be en­ tirely of country people, or en­ tirely of city people; it can be made up of high-brows or the un­educated; it is a class church if the people in it just don’t want to have others in it whose cir­ cumstances arc different from theirs. If all men are lost and it ‘ God’s desire is that all shall be saved, no church should be more exclusive than G<xl Is. God does not draw color lines or class lines or money lines. Tlic ideal church, the one that rellects the facts of Christ’s love and the calling of God. 's one in which no human being who loves the Lord Jesus and gives his heart to him. can feel strange or out of place. Tljcrc is no use saying, ’ We only want our kind of people” , if Christ lived and died for ali people.. For.that means all kinds of people! itU<cd nn uutlinrv wr thtDivUInn oi ClirJ.lUii .^«-; K.(<«i ••nuncU «» ihc Cbtirchefc ^ t in th« U. «. A. nflt»«d by CommunHjr ' ;my skin.

Reporter Who Bitrid (Buffalo Bill) Cody D'es in Denver, Colo. DENVER—An era in Americans came to a dose recently with the death of Edgar C. McMechen in Denver rccontly. McMechen, relatively unknown at ihc time of his death at the age of 69. was the man responsible for the burial of William F. (Buffa­ lo Bill) COdy on Colorado's Look­ out Mountain.

Buffalo Bill was in his final resting place—in Colorado. Now. more than 2.000.000 persons visit the graw each year, much to the consternation of Wyoming and Nebraska residents.

At that point they would •.’coly circle the eorth like a- tiny moon while 10 space ships were sissemblcd and readied for the big trip. A. total of 950 flights over eight months* lime would be required to ferry sufficient supplies and fuel - lo the circling takeoff station. Hi* says the ride through space Vould take 260 days.

Grandmother Gives Birth to Quadruplets SYDNEY, Australla-M rs. Ethel Hudson. 38. a grandmother, re* ccntly gave birth to quadruplets. She alrcmly h.*id 9 children. Mrs. Hudson says she was not surprised when her doctor deliv* ercd a 4S-ounce tx>y and a 61-ounce girl since she expected twins. Bui she was somewhat flustered v.’hen the third child, a .^8-ounce girl, was born, and downright flab­ bergasted when she gave birth to the fourth child, a .53-ounce daughter.The multiple birth extended over aii hours.Like the old lady in the shoe, the Hudsons had so many children they did not know what to do-~at least as far as housing them wns concerned. So they scitled down In two big tents on the outskirts of town.“I 'suppose I’ll have to buy an­ other lent,*’ Hudson commented. CAN NEVER TELL The big oil man, in an expan­ sive tnood, d ^ded to spend some of his monev doing good at Chrlst- 'mas time. As he saunteied down the stMet, he soled three ragced Toiings^V shepherded them into a clothing store and ordered new suits for all of them. The clerk soon had the two oldest children fitted, but when he came to the third and smallest, that one began to cry. The child’s wailing upset the benefactor who was a bachelor. “What’s the matter with him?” he demanded of the other two. “What’s this' bov’s name?” “Please, sir,” came the quick re. sixmse, "his name’s Alice.” THEY RAISED’EM A five-year-old girl, visiting a rieighMr, was asked how many children were in her family. “Seven,” she answered. The neighbor observed that so many childre.i must cost a lot. “Oh, no,” the child replied, “we don’t buy them - we raise them.” SHE WAS THINKATIVE Mrs. Burt, a “well meaning” neighbor, kept pestering little Mar­ tha about being so quiet, unlike her own wild and garrulous off­ spring. “You don’t have much to say for a normal little girl,” she chir­ ped. “What’s the matter with you? Whv aren’t you more talk­ ative?.’ Replied the child, “I’m thinka- tive.” This I Remember Bv R. S. Meronevi Asheville, N. C. (Continued From Last Week) JUST a n y b o d y .

(Must have been a pretty good town.) A Mr. Green, from near Cana, was the court caller. He was a very large man, and had a voice like a fog horn. He would put his head out the upstairs window and holler, “Oh yes, oh ves. so and so come into court as you are bound,” and he could be heard all over town. Court week was also “horse trad­ ing” week, and the trading lot wasi always full, and something goingj on all the time. The traders and horses came in from Statesville, Salisburv, and other places. It was also the week of barbecue, when Reuben Gaither would put up his “open air” stand. The Sunny Side school (Miss Mattie Eaton and Miss Laura Cle* ment) Commencement, was also a big event in Mocksvllle for many years. This was held In May each year at the Baptist Arbor, in North Mocksvillc. The teachers and children would spend a week there preceeding the commencement, practicing the plays to be held and decorating for the occasion. The final exercises were held at night. Ir was a great week, and a great finale. Sunny Side also had a Music Department, and I remember a Miss Chamberland and Miss Julia Farrier as the two first teachers. Miss Farrier was a beautiful and lovable girl, and was wooed and won bv one of Mocks- ville's most prominent young men, Mr. Frank Sanford. Her untime­ ly death a few yean later cast a gloom over th . whole town. Mocksville*s first newspaper was the old Davie Times, founded by Will Mooring and John Blount. This paper had many editors, a- mong them being John Blount. Will X. Coley. Rev. I. M. Dow- num, Wm. K. Clement and T. R. Walsh. The Davie Times folded up under the ownership of Mr. .Walsh, and the press and outfit was sold to the Cooleemee Journ­ al, owned by ). C. ScU. My earliest recollection of the Davie Times was when Mr. Blount was the editor. He was also may* or of the town, and a great poli­ tician, I remember one morning Mr. Blount came down town with three green persimmons in his coat lapel. This was a token for F. M. Simmons (and I believe this was the first time Senator Sim­ mons ever ran for office, and he was defeated by a Negro.) How some of these Editors, that were not printers,’ever made a living I will never know, for they printed onlv two pages of the four'paue papers, and had practically no ad­ vertising. However, I can lemem* ber that some of them did not pay their help, and bought their liquor cheap. The first talking machine, (re­ cord player to you), I ever saw, was on display in Sanford's store. This was a box-like outfit, with a winding spring, and it had little rubber tubes with gadgets to in your ears, and was barely au . . ble at that. A little later Tom , Byerly, cashier of the Bank of Da­ vie, had a phonograph with a large funnel-shaped horn, which he would place oh a big rock out in front of the bank in the evenings, and the crowd would gather a- round to hear some of the jazz tunes of that day. “Goo*goo Eyes' was a favorite.

He thought OUs would keep the angel of death from finding him. But death knew his nama.—knew bis last name, which was all that mattered. Death knows every <me’s name, and will call it The one prediction that is certain to come true, and the only one. is this; Vo« w ill die. D eath rides every h l^ . way; he rides too on every country road and back* woods tra il, he rid es the seven seas. W herever Dr.Foreman- your road may take you. at the last you will come face to face with death. It is only an illusion to think you can ride away from deaith. You are always coming nearer. You will face It, no question of that. The <iuestion Is, How will you face it? With Frankness The ChrisUin looks lor Ms an­ swer to Jesus hlmsell. He too faced death, both of his friends and ot himself. We call him. and rightly "Lord of Life," “1 am the ResurrecUan and the Life." be said. But the blaze of light in which bis spirit moved did not blind him to the dark fact of deattl. He laced death, first of all with frankness. He. did not try to avoid mentioning it. He said to his friends quite simply, "Lazarus is dead.*' It would be tunny, it It were not so palhctic, to see how many ways* people' find ol avoid­ ing saying “He is dead." He is deceased, or demised, or passed away, or gone on,—anything but dead. At funerals the corpse is rigged up to look' as lifelike as passible. At the grave everything is done to keep it from looking like a grave. Death is a subject dodged in polite conversation. But why not face it? Jesus certainly believed in immortaUty, more armiy than we do indeed; but still he wss frank about death. '*^iesi5 ’"tea«'w ere shed on only one recorded occasion, when Laza­rus died. Could he have been weephig tor Lazarus? That is hardly possible. II he believed hall what we believe about immor- tallty. he could not have wept for a man who had gone beyond these shadows to th. light of God's presence. Or if he did not b e ll^ ; in immortality (let us s u p r~ -• Just for a moment that ll^ not), then why should he.'^ lor a man who was wiOito . hoiir to b . restored to full life, again? The one explanaUon accounts for Jesus' Uars on day Is to SM them as tears of sympathy. Tha hearts ol Mary and Martha w et. tom. and his own was tom in sympathy. Perhaps It was not altogether because they were for a time lonely and -berell. Jesus could see something b ^ neath their loneUness,-he could see that they did not understand death itself. To their minds Laza- nis had as good as ceased to exist He would be "raised up" at some future day; but on that day. four days after his death what had be­come of him? AU Uiey could sec was the black shadow into which their brottier had disappeared. It was for their hopelessness, their misunderstanding, as much as tor their sorrow, that Jesus wept. Witii Foith I>eople who have had Uttle ex­ perience in such things sometimes wonder what to ssy when they visit a house ol sorrow. II only we could brtag back the dead to lile, a s Jesus did! II only we could break Into movhig poetry such as might have come Irom a Tennyson or a Dantel If only we could say some , magic thing that would du- solve death In ashes and make Ule bloom againi Instead we are shy and blunderhig and we are alraid we say the wrong thing in spit, ot ourselves. Two things need to b . remembered at such Umes. One is that what we say Is (ar less hnportant than our attttude. 11 w . ours.lv.s have an attitude ol fear, ol doubt, ol hopelessness, anyttiing hopeltti we say is beUed by our evident despair. But 11 h> ourselves there Is a strong faith, this wiU make the stanplest words glow with hope.- - The othir thing l« reeaU that Jesus remhided Martha and Mmje- .of hImseU. "I am the ResurrecUon and the Lite." When we think ol Jesus we think ol U fe-so all his friends have felt. How can v«e help Itt So in tee presence ot sorrow tl» best word we can say is some word that points to Jesus.

Here they are: Animal RuabaD dry 1. Utilize such crops as small grains, rye grass and crimson clover, fescue and Ladino clover, or other winter forages for beaf cattlc, sheep, and hogs. 2. Where grazing is not sufficient, see that Ihe beef-brccding herd has enough cheap roughages and grain and cottonseed meal to prevent Joss of weight. 3. Buy steers to graze win* ler forage crops. 4. Do not sell Acccss to an atnpie. clean supply of water Is important to the M'cll'belne of cattle during Ihe winter months. cheap pig.<!. Feed them out for next spring maricel. 5. Give sheep one-half pound of grain daily and all iho legume hay they will oat. 6. See that all classes of livestock have shelter and bedding and pro* vide extra bedding during cold snaps. 7. Repair fences during spare time. 8. Kill hogs for home use when weather conditions are suitable. Dairying 1. Feed good quality roughages, such as grating, silage, and le­ gume hay. to the limit of milking cow's appetite. 2. Peed grain in proportion to milk produced by each cow. 3. Do a good job of milking—fast, complete, and at regular intervals. 4. Give dairy cattle acce.ss lo pure. fre.sh drink­ ing water. 5. Observe calves for lice and internal parasilcs. 6. Pro­ duce quality dairy product.<;. 7. Keep rest barns well bedded for a big supply of manure. Poultry 1. Make the poultry house free from drafts. 2. Examine the lay­ ing flock for lice and miles, as an infestation of either will lower egg production. 3. Use lights for more fall and winter eggs. i. Feed grain liberally, along with laying mash, to keep layers in good flesh. 5. Pro­ vide a green grazing crop. 6. Get brooding equipment in order. Turkeys 1. Book order for poults. 2. Make repairs to brooder houses, brood­ er stoves, and water system. 3. Plow or disk old turkey ranges to check leaching out of droppings. 4. Buy any needed equipment for next year's operation. 5. There is still Ume to sow rye grass for grazing tor early pouJis. Business DeclineMany agricultural economists believe that general business in the year ahead is expected lo de­cline moderately from recent high levels. They are not predicting a depression or a great slump, mere* ly a slight dccline. LANTERN HANOER Norway Revives Old Tradition of r Ship Figurelieads WASHINGTON - A Norwegian shl)>i>hig Utios has revived one of the sea‘« oldest trnditions—placing tigurvheadi! on Its nuHli'rn motor- ships. In the gv>ldeu days of sail, a vessel rarely Wfnt Into service be­ fore the shU’ earvevs had Intlled her pauued wcoden ftKurehoad to the ternj. Vlkiiij; ships bore (ifiiire- heads of hawks. dv«):onH and other animals. There have been a uuixibor of famous figureheads in American history. The best known probably Is “Tecuraseh.” the Naval Acad­ emy's ‘ God ol 3.5.” to which u»id- shipmen jocularly pray for passing grades. Actually. Tecw»seh is a ‘ bronze replica of Tanianend. a Delaware I n d ia n figurehead carried by the U. S. S. Delaware. The Delaware burned at Norfolk during the Civil War. A bust of General Armstrong, from the American warship of that nantc. rested for many years at Fayal in the Azore.<!. whor<> the Armstrong was sunk during Ihe War of 1812. Still bearing the marks of shot, the bust today Is at the U. S. Naval Academy. An English museum has the like­ ness of Abraham Lincoln from some long-dead Yankee ship. And In a New Zealand garden is the statue of an Indian cbiof, belicv'ed to be the figurehead from the American square - rigger King Philip, wrecked “dovk-n under.’* In modern times the plumb bows of steamships held no place for figureheads. In the Norwegian revival, they are cast in m etal- less incongruous than wood on a steel hull. Gunsmith o Success Despite Handicap ROCHESTER. Pa. — In 1927 a slim» 17-year-old boy by the name of Lowry Smith was crushed against his father’s barn by a team of horses. His back was broken.Despite his handicap, today At 43 he is a nationally-known gun­ smith and in 1952 sold rifles and pistols for $200,000. Smith Is a quick-smiling, cheer­ ful fellow who has kept his nimble, skilled Angers busy for sixteen hours a day for the past 16 years. After his accident. Smith spent eight months in a cast. Re ,de« elded he would build a business out of his hobby ol fixing guns. He repaired, remade and traded them at home. In 1934 he opened a small shop. Business began to trickle in. tIn 1952 he sold 10,000 guns ot all kinds to customers in almost every state and in Canada. He says the "true hunter's desire lor personal guns" has made his suc> cess possible.He keeps a stock of 3,000 guns. Although his gunsmlthlng keeps him busy, he likes to raise sheep and farm for recreation. M eat SuppliesThe Department of Agriculture predicts that next year will be another year of large supplies of meat, with proportion of beet again high and the proportion of pork low. The cattle marketed will be of lighter weights. Landbound Shrimp Puzzles Fishermen WASHINGTON — The d e s e r t shrimp is one of the great aquatic oddities in this world. It breathes through Its feet, swims upside down, and lives a mere 40 days alter a two-year hatching period. The Apus lives and breeds in stagnant pools which evaporate in summer months and refill in the rainy seasons. Often shrimp eggs will remain dormant lor years, awaiting suitable conditions lor hatching. Eggs deposited in evap. orated ponds arc sometimes car­ ried by the wind or on the legs of birds to other waterholes hun* dreds ol mites distant. Apus was discovered in an Eng- lish lake in 1850. It did not appear again in the British Isles until 1907, when it turned up in a Scot­ tish millpond. Recently It appeared in a ralnwnter pond near Pan­ handle, Texas. « Saved by Fireman, Woman Asks Damages DANBUKY, Conn.-Mrs. Abiuail Lee, 80, was rucvnlly saved from a Are in Danbury. Later she asked the city to reimburse her lor treat­ ment of rib fraclures she alleged where sulTered when firemen car­ ried her to safety. She asked payment of a $2,343 hospital bill and a doctor’s bill, the amount of which was not speci­ fied. Said one councilman, a volun­teer fireman: "Mrs. Lee should thank God we have good firemen who could lift her out of the burn­ ing! building.

What if Captain Kelly had upbraided him for being too kind—for not giving out enough tichcts? ’That was over now and the sun was shining again at the inter.<:ection over which OfUcer Quinlan pi'esided. He knew in his heart that he was doing a good job. Captain Kelly must have thought so too->otherwlse he’d have been transferred long ago. Omcfr-r Quinlan’s attention fo­ cused on a skinny littV chap whose face was all but touching the win­ dow of John’s Nov­elty Shop. He judged the boy to be nimut ten. He was neatly dressed, although his long bSack hair shot out in every direction. “He’d do better If he stood out in front ot a barber sHt^p” thought Ofncer Quinlan. Quinlan turned his gaze away for a moment, studying the half* busy street with genuine interest. Hi.<> eyes came to rest on an old car sitting peaeeftiUy be* side the curb, nudging a parking meter that had turned a b ri^ t red. He walked over. Somettmei folks put an extra coin in the meter without turning tbe handle. He turned, nothing happened. Look* ing cautiously up and down the street, he slipped a coin from hli pocket. The Doy remained glued to his spot in front of the store window^ ”No thanks/ nan. proudly. money.” all manner of |ful toys lay before him. Officer Quinlan watched the Uttle cbsp with sympathetic eyes; finally with a sigh he reached deep down into his coat pocket at' * • rought up a handful of chan metimes it was mighty incon - -nt having a big heart—it kepi a man poor, that's what it did. Rut before Officer Quinlan could mnke a move In the direction of John’s Novelty Shop old Dick Noonan shuiTlecI around the. corner. Offic'jr Quinlan had always re­ spected Dick Noonan in spile of what some of the town busyhf'dies were suyiTig about the old chap. What if he did take a «)a;;s o' beer orce in awhile—or even at shorter intervals? He minded his own business and had « perfect right to spend his pension check as he saw fit. He liked Noonan even more when he saw the old man hand a dollar bill to the wi'^e- eyed boy in front ol the novelty shop. Without waiting for thanks Noonan shufTled off in the direction of Jerry's Place. “Aye, and look at the blp-hearied paupei'” said Quinlan as Dick came within hearing distant*? “Pact Is, you just beat me to U. I was about to give the lad a few coppers myself when you showed up. How about a glass of beer on me?” **No thanks,” said Dick Noonan proudly. “I’ve still got money.” Then- the old man. turning his back on Officer Quinlan, started up the steps to Jerry's P?M;e. Oiuinlan, stuffing the spurned dolla.r back intc his wallet, saw old Dick falter at the top step. He could lell by Norvian’s gestures that the old man’s pockets were empty. Ofncer ^ n la n made a quick movement with his right hand. Then he said: ••Ye’d better be savin? your money for glasses. Dick. II ye’d been any closer to that dollar it would have nipped yer foot.” And Dlek Noonan stared In (>en- ulne surprise at the dollar bill that lay at his feet. Then lor a fteel- Ing moment he looked 8uspici<iu<i'' •t Officet Quinlan’s stony lace. Re­ assured. he picked up the bill and opened the door of Jerry’s place. “Do >ou always throw your money around like that?” Officer Quinlan turned to look into d e ­ tain Kelly’s steely eyes. He was. sure no one had seen him toss the doUar on the stalrs-but Kelly had: it would be Kelly! Then Captain KeUy held out bis big hand as a smile crossed his usual­ ly stern lace: “You're a good cop . ^ in la n —a good cop. Wish we had more like you.” And as Captain KeUy walked away i big smile broke out on Officet Quinlan's lace. He siror^e proudly to Ihe middle of the street to direct the thickening traffic. The sun was shining again; ail was well with the'world. « NOTICE! Under and by virtue of tbe power ot sale contained in a eertaln deed of trosi sxeonsd bv Uodssr L. Pattereoik sod wirs* H u t L.

Snuff manufacturers, who don’t care whether customers chew it. Southern style, or sniff It in the fashion of royalty way back to the 18th century, say business pros­ pects are brighter than they have boon for some time. Dandy sniffers brought the snuff liabit to the early European courts where courtiers, powdered and be- wiQged. sniffed a pinch daintily be*; tween thumb and finger and trapped their sneezes in lace hand- Icerchicfs. Snuff has now moved 10 the ••country" where rural p«^ pie chew (suck or dip. as you choose) millions ot pounds per year, to the delight of country stores and stockholders of major snuff companies. Snuff sniffers in the United States are found mostly in the South and among the Mcnnonites and Quak­ers of New' Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York. Texans, who do everything in a big way. use about !t.0.H),000 ))Ounds a year and most cl ti)is is in East Texas. It's chew* ing tobacco in the West where cow­ boys prefer moistor chewing be­ cause of dust storms.The aniount of snufX consumed in Texns alone is three times as much as is manufactured In Canada, where about a million pounds per year is turned out. Canadians, how­ever. use two types. One is dry, for sniffing, the other damp, for either sniffing or chewing. Authorities agree that the snuff trade picked up customers during World War II, when smoking was prohibited in factories and build­ ings. In Canada, principal users are wheat field w'orkers. who are not allowed to smoke in the dry fields. \This I Remember IBv R. s. Meroney, Asheville, N. C.

Thousand Years Dispute Settled TIIE HAGUE—If you lived on the Islands in the English Channel called Les Gerehouse or Les Min- quires, you might now have cause for joy or sadness, depending upcm your political sympathies.The reason — "nie International Court ot Justice has settled a J.OOO- year-old dispute, over the owner* ship of the tiny little Islands which are little more than a speck on the map of the world and cover a total area of about 90 square miles.

Pa.-The twin boroughs of Mauch Chunk and East Mauch Chunk are out to attract new industries and they plan to do it with the lowly nickel. They are attempting to raise money for factory sites, but In­ stead of concentrating on big con- tributions of cash the people are satisfied with giving a nickel a week for five years.With the population of 6.nOD, the nickels would multiply to $300 a week, $15,600 a year and $78,000 hi live years.Joseph Boyle, editor of The Mauch Chunk Times-New.s. an«! fa* ther of the Idea, says, * With $78, ; 000 we’U be in shai^ to provide a factory site to attract new Indus- • try.”Buying faetory sites to attract Industry has been widely used in south for several years. <' Timbuktu Civilization is catching up with fabled Timbuktu, for generations the epitome of faraway places. .A week^ commercial flight across French West Africa from Bamako to Gao now stops at Goundam, Just 70 miles from Timbuktu.

An automobile has lots of faults but it will not shy and tun away at a piece of paper blowing in the road. _____________ Politics make strange bedfel­ lows. We once knew a man who posed as an Independent when he was in Davie, but changed to a red-hot Democrat when he cross­ ed the line into Yadkin County. The Democratic paper isn’t go­ ing to help elect the Kepublican- ticket in Davie County this fall, If you are laboring under this delusion you are due a rude awakenine when the ides of Nov ember roll around. The price of grain, hogs, cattle and sheep has been declining for some time but us poor morals who live out of paper bags and tin cans haven't found it out W hen we buy provisions we are still paving 70c. per dozen for eggs $1.05 a pound for coffee, around 89c a pound for steak, and 87c. pound for breakfast bacon and a- bout iOc per pound for Hour. W ho is getting all this money? If you are thinking of getting in the race for State Senate, Repre­ sentative or any county office, you will have to hie your name with Aubrey Merrell, chairman of the Davie County Board of Elec* lions on or before April 18th. Up to a few days ago neither a Demo­ crat or a Republican had filed for anv county office. It is rumored that several men will file for office in the near future. Offices to be filled in the May 29th primary will be the Senator. Representative, Sheriff, Clerk Superior Court, and Coroner. Solicitor I. Allie Hayes has already filed for this office, which he has held for the past four years, and it is not thought he will have any Republican op' position._____________ Cotton Allotments May Be Released Davie County Cotton growers who have allotments that they do not plan to use in 1954 should be encouraced to release the acreage to the Davie County ASC Com­ mittee in order that the acreage may be put where it will be used for 1954. The acreage,so released, for i9S4 only, shall be available for reap, portionment for the year 1954 to other farms in accordance with the applic^le law, regulations, and official instiuciions. In establishing the 1955 farm cotton acreage allotment, (he acre­ age so released will be regarded as having been planted to cotton on the farm in 1953 it anv cotton was planted on the farm in one of the years 1952, 1953, or 1954. Farmers may release their cot­ ton acreage anytime between now and April 15, 1954 which has been set as the closing date according to O .'E Driver. Chairman of the Davie County ASC Committee.

There are a number of thing* to ■ nakcaraof In filing the*e re­ port*. There it the item of being certain that vout Social Security Account Nnurober i* down on SchcduleC of your income tax re­ turn. fb* with the number the Acr eaantLig Department of the So. dal Security otganltation will not be able to Rive credit to your ac­ count. Al*u, it I* highly necessary that you show. In deM . the nature of yout buslne**. Fer instance, sup­ pose, you have net earning* from both a *tore and a farm. The earnings from the£inn are exclu f- ed by law from coverage for Social Security purposes. Therefore, they should not be leported with the earning* from the store of Schedule C of vour income-tax n - turn. But one of the most important thinn to remember is that vou show on Schedule C a breakdown of vour business expenses. The term “Net Earnings From Self- Employment, means just that. In other words, it means your gross income from yout trade or busi­ ness, le** the co*t of doing-burf- nes*. Thus, vou can *ee the import­ ance of showing tliose expenses, so broken down that they may be dUyfccognlzed. If vour "Sche­ dule C” shows little or no busi. ness expense, it would naturally raise » question as to whether all the earnings shown ate in reality “net earnings.” Therefore. let me impress on vou the importance of showing on your return your business ex­ penses. And break them down so dierewill be uo question about them.

Important conditions have to be met.* • • "It It Dies"Many Ifa of the Bible can well be expressed in the words “Only when . . Three times Jesus used that fateful word in the hours when he was face to face with his des­ tiny. when be was facing the Cross. These Ifs had to do with himself, they also had to do with his friends. Not .only his friends there and then, but now and here,—in short, with every Christian. One of these Ifs is in his saying about the grain of wheat. Save the grain, cover it with protective varnish, keep it in « tin box, put It In a bank vault,—you may save the grain but you will destroy iU life, there will be no other grains. Put the grain of wheat in the ground where it can rot. and in a few weeks that grain will be gone, it will have died; but where it died there will be a green blade grow* ing, a blade that one day will be a wheat sU9e bearing many grains. If — only when — there It death can there be life. Jesus meant that for himself; if he had refused the cross he would not have been the "Prince of Ufto” and Saviour. He meant It for us; those persons who mean most in the lives of others, those vital person* alities who by a kltu) of bright con* tagion bring vitality wherever they go,~those are the very per­ sons who are least careful for their own selves. Wherever people are scrambling every man for him­ self, there you have strife and de- stnictloa.• • • "If Any On< Strvti Me—"Another It is in the saying. “If any one serves me, he must follow me.” Jesus did not mean follow at a long and respecthil distance. He meant to cUmb where he climbed, dare what he dared. Jesus had put thla in even strong­ er words some time before. His follower, he said, must take his own cross every day and follow Him. Christians are rather too fond of looking at the cross, and letting their Christianity go at that. But the Christian life is not like looking at a show, not even at a tragedy. We see the cross in every Christian church somewhere, per­haps even the building is in the shape ot a cross. But what Jesus asked for In his followers was not a cross before their eyes but a cross In (heir lives. To put it quite simply: Christian life, when it is real, is a life of sacrifice for others. It is a life in which self comes last, not first. A doctor said to his patient; “I think most peo­ ple are Christians, don't you?” That depends on what you mean by Christian! If you mean by that, some one who admires Jesus, yes, most people are Christians. But if you mean what Jesus meant, one who actually foUowa Jesus, how many Christians are Christian? "in B* Lifted Up"Itie third If is in the saying “If I be lifted up I will draw all men unto me.*‘ We may suppose a hard- boiled practical man of today, or of Jesus* day,—possibly Judas was auch a person—asking Jesus, Just why do you go on with this idea of the cross? Why let youraelf in for . trouble? What do you get out of it? it we let Jesus speak for himself, we know that he no more went to the cross to “get something out of It** for himself than he did any- tlilnf else for selfish reasons. He did not live, be did not die, for bis own benefit. His life and his (death were all of one piece; his teath waa but the final outpouring of a life that had been pouring Itaetf out into others and fbr others, from the beginning. He did not fo through Gethsemane and Cal­ vary in order to be praised, or to acquire merit. oi‘ to win a place among the worM’ • heroes.

Now Is Good Time to Study Irrigation Today's farmer, who invests in seed, labor, machinery, fertilizer and other essential farm supplies, finds that these supplies are ot little value without an adequate water supply. By this token, the apparent high cost ot irrigation can become relatively small, and may be an investment well worth con- slderatiw).While all crops are likely to suffer from too little water next summer, pastures, as usual, will be particularly affected about mid­ summer. which actually should be the time of maximum ?roduetlon and the Ume cattie should have an adequate supply of green forage.A pasture irrigation program itii* tiated at the University of Tennes­ see in IM1-S2 proved the coat ot The priie-winning corn came from a SS-acrc field that had been In alfalfa two years.

But when traveling In Atnerica be went one evening loio a beer hall lu Buffalo, N y.. where he saw sev. eral horror sights which he descri’ bed. one of which was where he saw two yonog bovs get two young girls drunk and then took them reeling down a dark alley. Here is the way Mr. Klpllog described this last scene; The other sight of the evening was a horror. The little tragedy played itself out at an neighboring table where two very young wo. men were sitting. It did not strike me 'til far Into the evening that the pimply young reprobates were making the young girls drunk. They gave them red wine and then white, aud the voices rose fligbtly with the maiden's cheek flushes. I watched, and the youth drank uo< til their speech thickened and their eveballs grew wa tery. It was sick ening to see, because I knew what was going to heppen. *Tbey got Induflbabty drunk— rhere in that lovely ufusic ball, sur. rounded bv the best of Buffalo so­ ciety. One could do nothing ex. espt-itvrok« tbe4ttdgmeni.j0f_.beay.. on the two boys, themselves half sick with liquor. At the close of the performance the quieter maiden laughed vacantly and pro­ tested she couldn't keep her feet. The four Httked arms and stagger. Ing, flickered out into the street drunk They disappeared down a side avenue, but I eould hear the^lr lauffhter long after they were out ofsiteht. And they were all four children of 16 and 17. •Then, recanting previous opln- ions. I became a prohlWtlonlst. Better It Is that a man ahould go without his beer In pnbllc traces and content himself with crltlclzln? the narrow-mindedness of the tna- jorlty. I understand now why preach- era rage against drink. I have said. “There Is no hirm In It, tak. en I oderatelv-” and yet my own demand for beer helped directly to send those two girls reeling down the dark street — to God alone knows what end.

Lowly Porcupine is Controversial Figure Many Ways WASHINGTON—The lowly por­ cupine is not aware of the d l^ r- cnce of opinion about liim in tlte neighboring states of New Hamp­shire and Vermont If he knows, there is no indication that he cares. Recently, Kew HampsbiiK in­creased a bounty on porcupines trum 25 to SO cents. Adjoining Ver­ mont removed a SO-cent bounty en­ tirely. Foes of the porcupine in New Hampshire contend that the aiiimai‘8 taste lor the life-giving inner bark of trees makes him quite a pest. In gnawing, the por­cupine works around the tree. If he does not kiii the tree, he leaves woiinds by which destructive tree blii-'his enter. Out West, where por­ cupines have a taste for yellow THE LAST STRAW An old fellow from the hills was up for trial,. The charge was murder. “Why did vou do it?" asked the judge. ■ "Well, mv rheumatism was pes- tering the life out of me.” he plained, “and then my bam burn- I ">v t»vo mules-rcdfsnt may kill or damage 100 My prize sow died with the chol­ era and m y daughter eloped with a good-f6r«nothing scalawag.

In the woods, he leads a solitary life, wanting only to be left alone. While lie holds malice for none, he backs up an unsociable attitude with 30.- need}e-sha>*p quills.

Campers have been known to chase the animals away from camp sites repeatedly, only to have them return again and again. This has earned the animal the reputation of stupidity, although observers believe that poor eye­sight is a factor. HE WAS LAZY The salesman, after gaining en trance to the prospectus home, put oh his personality act. **My, whuc Call, who had gone to Texas and South Woits While North Investigates . HUDSON. N. Y.—The South iPust wait while the North makes up its mind, and a Civil War relic lies in the balance. The trustees ot .the New York State Volunteer Firemen’s Home Association have voted to investi­gate the history of a hand-drawn, double-deck fire engine which has long reposed in the'' associations Hudson museum. It is said that the engine was hauled across the Potomac as Civil War booty and A2c'<andria. Va., and Mount Ver­non, Va.. have requested surrender of the apparatus. ' 0Trustees ot tiie Firemen's Home want a complete investigation be­ fore deciding whether or not to honor one of the requests or any otiiei*s that may be made. At a closed meeting, tliey adopted a resolution authorizing the appoint­ ment of a committee to make “a tlioruugh investitiatiou of the iden­ tity. ownership and circumstances under which the custody of the apparatus was ob.tained.*' Tlte re»oU:tiun said the investi- gaiiun w.*i& deemed neccssary be* cause "from a cursory examina* tion of the many |)icccs of fire ap­ paratus in the museum of the fire- nien's home, ho marks of identifi­cation have been found which in­ dicate that any of the apparatus ever came from Virginia. This / Remember Bv R. S. Meroney, Asheville, N. C. (Continued From Last Wee k) Mocksville and Davie County were alwavs rather hot politically, especially during a State or Nat* ional election. Maybe this was because Mocksville was generally Democratic and the balance of the county Republican. The hottest campaign I can remember was the year that I believe Aycock ran for Governor. Anyway, the campaign was based on the “White Suprem­ acy” issue. We had little red buttons with the words "White Supremacy” on them, and if you didn’t wear one of these buttons vou were a Black Republican. Manv Republicans were won over on the White Supremacy issue. The candidates promised that if elected they would pass some laws that would stop the Negroes from voting. *riiis was one campaign pledge that was carried out, and how! Speakings and big barbecues Wire held all over the county, and I recall the one held at the Center arbor most vividly., For this occasion a Texas lawyer was a feature sneaker. This Texas law­ yer was a native son of Mocksville, being a Mr. Call, brother to Mit and Jim Call, and son of Henry a lovelv home you have,” he gush­ ed. *'And pray tell me what is in that beautiful vase on the mantle?” **My husband*8 ashes”* said the young wife. **Oh, Vm so sorry; How long has he been dead?” t*He's not,- Just too lazy to find ah-ash-tray.” DO IT AGAIN The golfer stepped up to the tee and drove off. The ball sail­ ed straight down the fairway, leaped onto the green, and rolled into the hole.. The golfer threw his club into the air with exci ce­ ment. ;**What have vou suddenly gone crazy about?” asked his wife, who was: trying to leam something boutlhegam e. **Why, I just did a hole in one!” yelled the golfer, a wild gleam of deligHt in his eyes. "Did'you?” asked his wife plac­ idly; **Do it again, dear, 1 didn’t sw you.” A WHOPPER you should have seen the fish made a gre'<it record as a criminal lawyer. Lawyer Call sure laid it on the Republicans and the Ne­ groes that day, with no holds barred, and his speech created much ^vorable comment. The “White Supremacy” ticket won, and they proceeded to pass the promised laws. A new regis tration was ordered, and laws pas­ sed laving down certain education­ al tests as a qualification for regis­ tration. This law said that to qualify one had to b^ able to read, write and exp'ain the Constitu« tion of the United States correct Iv, and that the precinct registrar should Rive the test, and be the sole judge. That alone would have most certainly barred a big percent of the white voters as well as about all the Negroes; so to protect the whites, a **Grandfather Clause” was included. This Grand­ father Clause provided that if ones saandfather was a registered voter he would not have to take the test. Naturally, all the white men bad voting ^:randfarhers, but the crandfathers of the Negroes being slaves, did not vote.

Iiarcb it \m A MAN who eould k tp aU th« T«n Comm»ndm«nto without ever broAklns • alnglt on* would be a good man. bttter than moat. But from the Christian standpoint that kind ot goodness is not enough. A man can keep all the rules of the game and be a poor player. He can observe aU the laws of his state and not be a desir* able citizen. Some* thing more, some* thing more posi« tlve. is needed, valuable though the Ten Command* ments are. At the Last Supper Jesus gave his friends there, and through ^______ftem he g.ve aU B ' F otem .. his friends since, an eleventh com. mandment which Christians un* derstand to be more important than all the others. In ^ ct. w« have New Testament authority for believing not only that if a man kept all the others and broke the Eleventh, he would be a moral zero; but also that If he really keeps the Eleventh. It wiJJ lead to his keeping all the rest. It Is what Christ called the “New Commandment”—of Love. Whot’s New About Love? Was Jesus exaggerating when he spoke of love as a "new” com* mandment? Had love never been heard of before? Is it not found in those two ancient Laws Christ himself had quoted from Deut. «:5 and Leviticus 19:18—Love God. and Love your neighbor? Well, love itself was not then new In the world. But love to the de­ gree that Jesus meant, was In* deed new. The careful reader will notice that Jesus does not stop with "Love one another.” He goes on to add. “—as I have loved you.” Granted that even sacrificial love had been seen in the world before, the fact is that for these disciples in the Upper Room, and for most of us if the truth be known, the kind of self'giving love which Christ had and was is in truth something new. Wc are all willing to love those that love us. We will love those who understand .-^nd ap* predate us. We are willlnR enough to love if we feel we are Retting some return, so to spenk. on our investment. But which of us in Jesus’ place would have loved others as he did? Those disciples were not at first what you would call lovable people. Sinners are not lovable as a rule, and Jesus came to help sinners. The thing that always bothered the Phari­sees was that Jesus evidently loved people who did not deserve to be loved. No Pharisee ever un* derstood this. It was something new In their world. Lovt Is Notoeiutprint Christians sometimes become too enthusiastic about this New Commandment. They speak of it as it it did away with the Ten Commandments, or as if it got rid of any need for thinking. It your intentions are good, that’s good enough, they say. So they go through life with what they vague­ ly suppose are good Intentions but actually doing a lot o f' harm. Jesus never meant this New Com* mandment as a sort of magic charm that wouid solve all our problems, get rid of all our dlffi* cultles. conquer all our tempta* tions. Love is not a blueprint, either. You cannot take ’'love and love alone" and govern a city or found a college or run A business or a farm, just on pure love. It is something like the law of gravita­ tion. You can't build so much as a pigsty without paying good atten­ tion to the law of gravitation. But that law does not tell you how to build the sty, nor a house, nor a skyscraper, though all of them are held to«ether with gravita­ tion's mighty power. So with all human institutions, the church, the state, the school, and so on: with­ out the spirit of self*sacriflce (the New Commandment) they will not stand; yet self-saerlflce is no blue­ print by itself. There is no substi­ tute for bard thinking and planning. Lovt Is Ceiic«ra If teU'saeriflee sounds too lofty, let us come down the scale a Jtttle. New-Oommandment love, to say the least of it, means concern lor others. We all knew what it is to be concerned about ourselves. We take good care of ourselves, we look for our interests, we worry for /ear we may be left by the wayside somehow. W t like to see that we ourselves get the most out of anything. All persons except complete fools are concerned natu­ rally about themselves. Now. the New Commandment simply says to turn Ibis concern in the other direction. Be as interested in the other person’s welfare as you are in your own. American Farmers > Might Someday / Supply Our Cork WASHINGTON—American farm* ers may one day break the Medi­ terranean monopoly on coiki Some are now growing cork trees and in years to come could furnish the cork for bottle stoppers, motor gas* kets and life Jackets, among other uses. Portugal, Spain and North Africa now practically supply the world. No synthetic substitute for n»t* ural cork has yet been found. Tiny air cells, as many as 750,000,000 In an ordinary bottle cork, may be the reason. Cork Is resilient, compress­ible, light, almost impervious to gases and liquids and so frictional that clutch discs are made of it. Half the world supply is used In making linoleum. Some time ago. a Baltimore manufacturer of cork products set out to be a modern*day Johnny Applaseed. Finding that the coilc oak would grow in some 23 south* em states from the eastern sea« board to the Pacific, this concern distributed thousands of free seed* lings and acorns. It outlined a scientific pro* gram of progressive plantings that was enthusiastically endorsed by the Department of Agriculture and many state governments. Freon 19S9 until the preaott. mlUlona of cork oaks have been planted In this country, largely on poor land that would grow little else of vtf ua. Soma cork is actual^ being pro* duced, but this comes from old trees planted In CaUtorala and elsewhere long ago. . Even if the manufacttfi-er^s plan Is followed to fruition. It win be many years before tha United States becomes self-aufHelent In cork. The more slowly a «oA oak grows, the better tha bark, and In any event. It takes 20 yeara from planting to first stripping. 40 years beforo the bark is of good quality. Only once every • to 10 years can a tree be strip i^ . WasMi ! circles 1 Colored Markers Guide D. C.

Animals Are Taking Courthouse Building CARTHAGE, Mo.—Some oI Car- thage*a residents beUeve animals in the neii^borhood have confused the Cburthouse with a soo. Recently, a racoon, a weasel and an Opossum were spotted on the Courthouse Square. A study of the situation led to belief that the coon and the weasel had esUbUshed res^ idence somewhere within the Courthouse building, although Mr. Opossum, perhaps because of his ability to hang around in out M the way places, still has everyone guessing. A horde of starlings also seem to like the Courthouse aelgbbor> hood. They have been nesting In trees on the square. They're strict* ly for (he birds and not ao popular as the coon, weasel and opossum— they’re accused of breaking the Courthouse clock by roosting on the clock’s hands. Korea Veterans Sticking With Chosen Courses WASHINGTON — Koreui W«r veterans taking G. I. training courses are making good at the business of getting an educatl<». The Veterans Administration saya that fewer than 2 per cent of the 230.000 enrolled under the program have changed any of their courses. The V.A. said this indicates that the Korean War veteran “has a clear picture of where he ia go* ing and how he plans to get there. 'Aie law permits a veteran taking classroom, on-the-job or on-farm tratoing. under the G.l. Bill of Rights to switch programs only once. The V.

Dr. Jonas E. SaJk, of Pittsburg, recently described the disease to the American Public Health Asso* , elation. He reported a how vaccine, which would protect against 'the' flu virus, but said there’s no pro- ’ tection as yet- against this “X’U disease which usually hits during Clu epidemics. The exact cause of the new dis> case is not known and It is possible that it might be the so<callcd ••Virus V”, blamed for grippc4ike' ailments. . Dr. Salk. who developed both the new polio vaccine and flu vaccine, discovered the mystery ailment during studies of influenza and his vaccine at Fort Dix. N. J.. during the last few years. The “X” dis­ ease accounted for about two- thirds of all soldiers hospitalized, during the wintertime Au periods. Blood tests prove when a person has the real influenza. ■The “X” disease 'causcs fever and all the other symptoms of flu. but the attack is usually mild,- lasts from one to five days. To, date, no der.ths have been attHb* uted to it. Dr. Salk believes that the existence ot the "X” disease may explain why the now flu vac* cine sometimes seem to fall to work. His tests proved that the vaccine g iv e s real protection against flu for at least two years.. But the “X" hit equally afnong' troops vaccinated against influenza and those not vaccinated. < The problem now, according to , ,Dr. Salk, is to find the cause of'.. "X”. The influenza vaccine' ca'n ' then be expanded to p ro te c t* *against the "X" as well as against,, the> Qu, he said. eflcli and every one of hU apostle* that the resnrrecHoo was Hteral , In everv reflDect. He' wanted them to see Hl9 Immortal bodv and handle It for themselveft, becanae apostle* m«ans ftp^al wltneaa^a:^ and for them to he special witnesses It was neeefiaarv for them to have ahaolttte lennwledffe of the ref^tfrreetlon from the dead, thev could po forth to all the world and hear testloiony In no tincertaln terms that Jestia was the Christ, and that he waa re. surrectod, clori6ed and ascended Htf» heaven with the same bodv he *tfld (fnritte his mlnistnr. So He contlnned to do ev#>rvt'*lne he- fore His onostles to convince them that immortal beln«« have bodies r^semhlliifir the mortal bodies they had all dnHnor earthlv exlf>tence. We have the Lord preT^rlnS a m^al of hrnded fish nnd honevcomb He ate It and also to Hl« atMRtles *f> pat.

C. 30 Million Babies Bom Since War II MIWNEAPOLIS-Since the end ot World War II. 90 million babies have i)eon born in the United States. Due mainly to this postwar, baby boom, the number of young people—under 20>-in the U.S. is now 11 million greater than it was in 1940. This is a growth equal to the combined populations of Chi- cago, Philadelphia. Los Angeles. Detroit and Cleveland.Since 1940 the number of people aged 65 and over has risen by over four million. Thus the population in the essentially dependent age groups. , yoiing and old, has gone up is mlUloD. against an increase of only 13 million in the number of persons aged 20-04, the age group to whom the dependent population must look for shelter and the pro* ducUon of goods for their-living necessities and comforts. fo 1940. people in the age group from 20>64 made up nearly 59 por'.- cent of the total population: Today • they 'comprise 56Me per cent, and by 1965, if population factors con** tinue at about their current rates,*.' only 52 per cent of the American people will be in the 20*64 group. This will be approximately 'the same ratio as pi-evailed l>ack .in 1900. , . - ;-ut Slock Feed Beei; «^jciallsts report that cane and beet molasses can cut feed costs.

Hughes of tlie Division of Oral Hygiene of the State Board of Health hat iutt completed a six-weeks dental prO' gram in the Davie County schools. Dr. Hughes hat instructed all children from the first to the tixth grade o.i the proper car* of the teeth to prevent decay. He talked with them about proper diet to to build ttrong teeth and thowed how to bruth the teeth to re.i.ove food particle! that would cause de­ cay. Dr. Hughe! examined the teeth of 1654 children and from thi! group picked 297 for treatment. This treatment consisted of clean ing the teeth, filling permanent teeth that could be saved, treat ment of primary teeth to retard decav. and exttactions where neces. sary. Unfonunatelv, Dr. Hughes had time to do only a small part of the dental work done. Olher children were referred to their lo­ cal dentist, and urged to have cor­ rections made as soon as po!!ible, Dr. Hughes reported that he had to extract 39 permanent teeth be­ cause of far-advanced cavitation. This dennl program is sponsor ed by the local Health Depart ment in co-operation with the State Board of HealiK. The pro­ pram has been both educational and correctional and with an ade quate follinv up program will greatly incrcage the dcnul health of the county. Thos. W.

Mr. Hainton It aeon of the late Peter W .H aiic ton and Mta. Hairtton of Coolee- mee Plantation. Mr. Hainton’t unde, the late Frank Hainton, of this county, served a term in the State Legislature more than a half centurv ago. It is not known to pray with success. Ont point is clear from all .'^esus* prayers, but especially from the great prayer in John 17: it is that the blessing of God rests on sincere prayer for others. They Should Know It Let us hope it is not impertinent to pass on a few thoughts suggest­ ed by this prayer of Christ, espe* cialty with regard to praying for other people. Intercessory prayer Jn the true sense is always un- sel^sh, though one may literally pray for other persons with a self* ish motive. For Instance, If a wom­ an whose husband is a candidate lOr office prays for his election, that Is praying for some one else, right enough; but maybe she is saying one word fbr him and two for herself. So an ambitious mother might pray that her child would make good to Hollywood, (—and bring home the bacon.) This is not intercessory prayer In the Christian sense. Christ’s prayer for others shows that he deeply and completely desired their highest good. But he does not offer this prayer in silonce and solitude. He prays in their hearing, they knew they were on his heart. We cannot always pray in the presence of those for whom we pray; but it does them great good to know we are carrying them on our hearts before God. No service of friend or loved one is more cherished than the simple yet sublime serv« ice of intercessory prayer.• • * ttSkoufdte for Ike Best Prayer lor others should be for the best—and this in two senses. It should be in line with God’s best purposes, and it should be for the best things. When Christ prayed in Gethsemane that the cup might pass from him, the prayer was not granted, because whai God willed would not be possible, or would not have been possible, if Christ had not been willing to drink that bitter cup to the dregs. God will not grant requests that upset his plans, no matter how earnest and appar­ ently right the requests may be. But prayer for others ought to be for the best things. Not that we should not pray for lesser things, ft surely is not wrong to pray th.-it mother may find her wedding ring that got lost in the laundry, or that Uncle Harry may get over his cold. But surely as we grow more mature in the Christian life we can begin to appreciate the kind of prayer that Christ offered for his friends. He did not pray there at the Last Supper for their health, long life or “prosperity." He prayed for their Inner spirits, he prayed for their unity of heart, for their vision of God. How often we pray for something to happen to our loved ones, how seldom do we pray for them! ¥^en a child lay dying of rabies, hundreds of pray­ ers went up for hit recovery. These were not granted. But other pray­ ers ware offered for his parents' faith; and thes« were granted. • • ■ Nothing You Ask— ? ^‘Nothing you ask will be de­ nied.'* a popular hymn says. But the Bible does not promise that. Jesus never promised it. What is promised, and what is true, is that the more our prayers harmonize with (be will of the God of Love, the more surely they will find an­ swer. Now we often pray for our friends, as we do for ours<Uv<>8. that Cod will help them do whnt they want to do, or get what they want to have, or get rid of what de­ presses or pains them. Give thf»m what they want! is our cry. (Mnny of us are too selfi.sh<.even to get that far in praying for others.* But there Is no guarantee that Oo'l will give all men. or any man. ex­ actly what he wants. Thi» poor world would be In a much "‘nrFf^ mess than It is, if Gcd 'r*. ed at everybody’s dJrtn-i^n best we can ask for 'ho^e we is that they may loarp to desire . what God himse?/ desires.

OPEN FORUM A minister asked me some time agoMf I had any tinderstandloe of what the unpardonable slu was, and bow anyone would commit this sin7 Jt ts tangbt sJbIdIv Id the Bible what the unpardonable sin Is. We read In Hebrew*, sixth chanter, v e i^ 4, 5. that ft Is, imt>osslble to renew any one who has had the heavens opened tinto them and partook of the world to come, and tasted of the heavenly things. Tt states such persons cru* clfy Christ afresh and put him to open shame. For Instance, John, oti the Is. land of Fatmos. had the heavens opened unto him and saw from the dawn to the end of time. If he I had dented this revelation and said |it was not true, jtist like a person llookinp at tb^ sun sbloe. and s«y It Is- total darkness; then snch a per- ^on .«fns neainst that greater kttow- ledee and commits the unpardon­ able slh. Or if stich a person was to behold all these visfons of eter. nity, then sav that Jesus Christ should have been crucified, that he should have suffered and been kl1> ed by the Jews because he was not th«> Christ, the Saviour of the world, then he crucifies Christ a- fresh. and puts him to open shame. Snt'h a man once havlnfif received snch eloti.^ns manlfestatldtis and Idenv it and turn aealnst the Savior, the redeemer of the world, he Is lust as etiUty as those who~*killed the tow. Now Paul who said he was tak. en up to the third heaven and heard ttn«paakahle tbfnrs which man could not utter. If he had •timed from this vision and acted a« I stated above, he then could have l>e<*ome a son of perdition. The many fjlands of Mrs. G. G.
