ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, JAWUAIIY These Clouds Mean Defense Clouds arise as North Carolina farmers increase the fertiUty of their fields by treating them with lime. Clouds arise as American soldiers increase their skill through ar' tillery practice. Both fertile soil and skilled gunners are vital to the Nation’s defense. In 1940 farmers of North Carolina were furnished 230,000 tons of ground agricul­tural limestone through the AAA grant-of-aid program. They brought and applied many more thousands of tons of lime through private purchases. In 1939 North Caro­lina farmers applied 195, 040 tons of lime; in 1938 they used 144,396 tons according to reports of county farm agents of the State College Extension Service.

If we could only be certain that our greeting to our readers was for a really “Happy New Year!” Death and taxes can only be taken for granted as impending. A wish of happiness seems almost unattainable if world events are to be a symbol of what lies ahead. But we are not easily discouraged and proceed each year, at the beginning of January, to hope for joy for others and cour­ age for ourselves to meet the responsibilities that the new year will bring. The present world is in a sorry state to promise much in the way of happiness for the universe, and consequently there isn’t such a pretty picture pre­ dicted for the world of 1941. But with its uncertainties and doubts, we will be fair and give it a chance to prove itself. Besides us are predictions for such busihess increase there will be a boom year ahead. Another says we’ve never seen a depression until we suffer the one that lies ahead in ’41. After all, the reason we shall remember the old year is due to the unexpected that it held, as that is what stamps it on our minds. So will the new year have unpredictable events popping up for us as reasons to remember its twelve months as outstanding on our life’s calendar. W e hope that happiness is included there­ in! W h y should we not look forward to prosperity and progress and perhaps, peace? W e have been visited with these in centuries past, and to continue to pray for them in 1941 is not foolhardy. So, confidentally we say it to you our iriends, to your relatives ana tneir iriends, to alT of those 130,000,000 souls who make up this land, and to those who are in other lands, “H A P P Y N E W Y E A R .” "THUMBS UP"! the side of the people who fight for their threatened existence . . . God up to now has placed the stamp of approval on our battle. He will not forsake us In the future If we do our duty with courage and faith.” Relchmarshal Goerlng: — (To the air force): You have fulfill­ ed the word ot hundred-fold re­ taliation!” ■Marshal von Brauchltsch: — (To the army): "We shall de- 4ft. the church.

This can only be accomplished if we dJiscard the notion of business as ujual.’ This job cannot be done ^lerely by superimposing on the [Istlng productive facilities the Sdded requirements for defense.” ^Wartime Munitions Mr. Roosevelt coupled his call for virtunl waiUine muultluiib production with the pledge of multiplying assistance for Brit­ ain and a stern arraignment of what he defined as the Axis philosophy of government. “The Axis," he charged, “not merely admits but the Axis pro­ claims that there can be no ulti­ mate peace between their philo­ sophy of government and our philosophy of government.” The president’s talk touched on ten major points. In effect, they were:1—"Never before since James- • town and-Plymouth P.ock has our American civilization been in such danger as now.” 2—^Greatly accelerated muni­ tions production was imperative, even at the sacrifice of luxury goods and non-essentials.--^3—A-gioady-Jiow-of--i4icrr.ri.slng aid would continue to Britain, as a vital part of the U. S. de­ fense program, regardless of "threats” from “dictators.” 4—“Our national policy is not directed toward war. Its sole purpose Is to keep war away from our country and our people,” by helping make possible British v'i»fiiry. Tnlk nf plans for a nre.s- of caustic denunciation of Pres­ ident Roosevelt’s fireside talk on helping the British. The explosive editorials were timed to coincide with two New Year’s messages from the fueh­ rer-one to the soldiers and the other to all the Nazi party mem­ bers—and with others from Hit­ ler’s chief lieutenants.Prepare Stroke The fuehrer’s New _Yea^s promise’ and angry Nazi com­ ment denouncing President Roosevelt’.s Sunday speech coin­ cided with accumulating evid­ ence that German strokes may be in preparation in such wide­ ly separated regions as the Far East, the Mditerranean and the Balkans—plus the ever present threat of invasion of Britain it­ self and Increasing attacks on Britain’s vital sea lanes. Prospect appeared that these preparations would be Intensl- fled by Mr. Roosevelt’s frank pledge that the United States would ' supply Bril'aih' with mounting stores of the weapons of war—guns, ships and planes. Mr. Roosevelt’s address has not yet been printed in Ger­ many. But after 24 hours’ study of the text by the “highest au- “thoritiea" the oifiClai'13NB~news agency was permitted to say that it was of the highest importance. Excerpts Here are excerpts from the message of Hitler and his chief lieutenants: Hitler — (To the fighting forces): “1941 will bring com­ pletion of the greatest victory cnt-day American expeditionary force Is an "untruth. 5—There would be no appease­ ment and no American efforts, under present circumstances, to bring about a "negotiated peace.” Axis Won’t Win 6—“'British . . . strength Is growing . . . I believe that the Axis powers are not going to win this war.”7—“Military necessities” will dictate the volume of future aid to Britain—an assertain some thought presaged upward revi­sion of the present 50-50 for­ mula. 8—^‘‘The nation expects oiir de­ fense industries to continue operation without interruption by .'jtrlkes or lockouts, with man­ agement and worker adjusting any difference by voluntary or Icfial means.” 9—"Evil forces ... are already within our own gates” seeking to foment dissension sometimes with the unwitting help of Amer­ ican citizens. 10—The redoubled defense ef fort would see no governmental failure to "protect the economic well-being ot all citizens.” HITLER SAYS NAZIS TO WIN Adolf Hitler promised his righting men and the people of the Reich that 1941 will bring them total victory and, on a nod from his government, the erman press released a torrent 4k- ward with God for Germany.'” Grand Admiral Raeder:—(To the navy): “Carry on with all power and the highest courage to the final victory, in steadfast belief in the future of great Ger­ many!” Goebbels Talks Propaganda Minister Goeb • bels:—(To the nation): "Schus- chnigg boasted against the Reich two months before he was chas­ ed out of the Vienna chancel­ lery . . . Benes had his trunk packed even while he_ declared he had a* plan'up'his sleeve to save the (C!zech) situation . . . Polish statesmen still dreamed of victory before the gates of Berlin while the German guns fired Warsaw . . . Two months before the French collapse Rny- naud was ... explaining solemn­ ly how Germany would be di­ vided . . . Does Mister ChurchiU follow a different method today? ...

Highlights Of The Sunday School Lesson The Sunday school lesson for, portatlon to the crippled, to read Jmnoary 5 is “Jesus and Human Affliction.”—Luke 13:1-5; 10-17. Is the general public so lack­ ing In proportioned judgment, In primary imagination and In or­ dinary human sympathy ,that it can look upon this spectacle of a world’s wounds and woe in other than a mood of intense concern and compassion? Even the menace to our peace does not stir most or us. People generally have not fac­ ed up to the real nature of the suffering that has descended upon mankind. We were tem­ porarily aroused by the bomb­ ings of London, by the collapse of France and the little nations of Euiope,'the lupe of’Nan­ king, by the U-boat sinkings of passenger ships, by the heroic resistance of Finland, and by the sinister conferences of Eu­ rope’s great powers. But interest soon lagged, as these tragedies 1 became commonplace. They lost tl^ir value as new sensations. I So, “On with the dance!” In the synagogue which Jesus attended^ that Sabbath—for He went regularly to church, even when the preaching was ..poor and the congregation was un- I congenial—there was a poor, bent woman who had been a conflrm- ^ed Invalid for 18 years. She was lust one of the commonplace 'procession of physical sufferers to be found everywhere and al­ ways. Her neighbors took her illness heedlessly. - - B u t J e s n s '^ id h o t; lie W f looked upon suffering without an impulse to heal. That was His nature, and the nature of the Father whom He represented. The hallmark of all God’s loyal children is compassion. We are recreant to tlie Family tradition and character If we are not to the blind, to write to the be- reaved-these are all primary Christian duties. In the case of the poor woman In the synagogue (How the of- flicted naturally turn to reli­ gion for comfort!), Jesus did not wait for her to ask His help. When He saw her pitiable, de­ formed body, and her pain- etched face. He volunteered help. Her need was call enough. Ho laid His hand upon the suf­ ferer and bade Iier be whole and strong again. At once the bent back straight­ ened, and all the racking weak­ ness that chronically tore her body disappeared, and she stood upright and—to the scandal of tliF'congregatTM—began To cry aloud her thanks to God. All that the officials of the synago­ gue got out of the dramatic in­ cident was a quibble about Sab­ bath observance! Tomorrow’s Great llealingr In the rotunda of John Hop­ kins Hospital, Baltimore, stands a heroic marble replica of Thor- waldsen’s statue of the Christ, helpers of the suffering, theer—tlie—в1ект— P L A Y E R C Ò A C H with outstretched arms' saying Come unto Me.” It Is more impressive than the original which stands in a Copenhagen church. The statue has been a comfort to uncounted visitors to the house of healing. It sym­ bolizes the great truth that, be­ hind all the scientific skill of the physicians, and all the minis­ try of the nurses, stands the figure, the example and the spiitt of the“ Compassionate Christ. Afresii the old truth comes home to us that for the world’s great healing of tomorrow, with unimaginable affliction of bodies COLORED NEWS By aiAUGARET WOODRUFF Among the college students who were homo for the holidays were Harry Lee Byrant, N.

There are sore soul-slck- nesses to be healed. moving plctm-e of how the Christ spirit dominates China’s rulers today. A Canadian guest had been invited to dinner with Gen­ eralissimo and Madame Chlang Kai Shek. A fierce air raid oc­ curred just before dinner, but no mention was made of it at the meal. Later, the guest was asked to remain for family pray­ ers. He records: “I never expect to hear such a prayer again in all my life The General began wltli a sim­ ple expression of thanks for their personal safety. Then he added thanks for the courage of the nation under fire. Then he prayed for strength for the men in the field and along the firing lines; he prayed for strength for himself. But the most amazing thing in his pray­ er was a plea that God would help him and lielp China not to hate the Japanese people. He prayed for the Japanese Christ­ ians, and all the suffering mul­ titudes of Japan whose impov­ erishment was making the war on China possible. He prayed for th¥ people who were bombed, for forgiveness for those who dropped the bombs." AU of us, state.smen and ordi­ nary folk, must rise to this level if we are to see the wounded world made whole again. We can never realize the ideal of “All ye are brethren” unless we first know that “One Is your Master, even Christ.” He Is the Great Physician, alone adequate for the great healing that awaits.

SUMMARY OF WAR HEWS President Roosevelt submits a rccord peacetime bud­ get to Congress. It totals nearly 17 Mi billion dollars, of which 11 billion is for defense. An uddilioiiul 10 billion is estimated for help to other democracies. The President made it clear that the amount sought was only the beginnuig and nobody knows the final cost. At the same time the President predicted the largest na tional income on record. Increased taxes are a certainty. Last Monday in his message on the “state of the nation” to Congress the President called for more aid to the allies and Congress has already begun whipping into shape the President’s plan to loan or lease war materials to Great Britian, China and Greece. German newspapers assailed President’s Roosevelt’s Monday speech for “unscrupulousness and untruthful­ness,” repeating that Britian is doomed and American aid will come-too-late..---------------------- REV.

MCQUAGE Publish« SUBSCRIl’TION RATES: n.50 Per Year; Six Months 75 Cents—$2.00 Per Year Outside oi _______________Davie County. Strictly Payable In Advance.___________ Bntered at the Post Ofrice at Mocksville, N. C., as Second-Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879. MEMBER OF N. C. PRESS ASSOCIATION It’s Up To Us Davie’s 1940 population figuves, seen on the front page of this issue, clearly show that the county has not grown as rapidly during the last 10 years as the average in the state. In fact, the growth is only about one foui-th the average. The Mocksville growth is about half the state average. There are less people on Davie farms now than there was ten years ago. This fact is in keeping with the trend. While it is lamentable that young people do not stay on the farm as they once did, it is true that farming is now much more efficient than it was. There arc- more trac­ tors, more labor-savings devices and less need of manual labor.£>avie is rapidly promoting a dairying industry and the total farm income now is considerably larger than it was ten years ago. The county has been electrified and farm life is much more comfortable than it was during the past decade. Davie has the facilities to make farm­ ing a more profitable business and more attractive to the trained youth. Farm life with its present advantages of mechanized equipment is the sweetest existence on earth. Last year this newspaper ran a series of articles on prominent farm families which showed what opportunities now lie on the farm for those who desire to take advantage of the chance. It beats town life all hollow, both in cash income and that dearer possession— one’s own boss. It is increasingly evident every day that industry in this country is becoming more decentrálized— moving to the smaller places. The national defense program is fur­ ther emphasizing this fact. Mocksville and environs needs more payrolls, as every­ body knows. The fullest cooperation is needed by all citizens in a constant search for small businesses that would do well here. One of the reasons this newspaper supported the water and sewer extension projects was to afford a basic necessity for industry. Many of our people now must drive each day to other larger towns to find profitable public employment. The census figures plainly show our needs and op­ portunities. Communities, like individuals, do not stand still. They either go forward or backward. This news­ paper intends to help with all its might to go foraard. V More Screen Plantings Needed Around Farm Make all plants serve a pur­ pose, says John H. Harris, Ex­ tension landscape specialist, and Ije adds, “very few farm people have sufficient screen plaatlnga." He names, the chief uses of plants as follows: To decorate the house, Inframement, shade, border and to screen unsightly building and equipment. “Border' Slid screen plantings require very little pruning,” Har­ ris stated. “They should be al­ lowed to grow large and as na­ tural as possible. Avoid mixing plants up too' much; use several plants together for maximum ef­ fect In foliage or flowers.” The landscape specialist rec­ ommends native plants for bor­ ders and screening. “With so many native plants available, and with the ease ul rooting common shrubs, there is Uttle excuse for lack of screen plant­ ing,” Harris declared. He lists the following native plants which are suitable for screen plantings around the farm (in some cases local names are given the same shrub to help in identifying It): Red bud (Judas —tree), azalea, doffwood, choke- berry, beautyberry (French mul­ berry) , sweet shrub (sweet Bet­ sy), white fringe (grandfather’s beard and white ash). Hawthorn, wlnterberry, crab apple, plum, sumac, elderberry, bay. Ink- berry (gallberry), cedar, moun­ tain laurel (mountain ivy), wax myrtle (sweet myrtle), rhodo­ dendron, Hemlock (spruce), sum­ mer sweet, yaupon holly, and Jersey tea. Harris also recommends privet hedge because of its rapid grow­ th and dense foliage. The privet edge should be cut once or twice a year, permitting it to stay in­ formal in outline, rather than smooth and formal. REA TO BUILD POWER LINE The Davie Mutual REA of Mocksville, today began the con­ struction ot an eleven-mile pow­ er line in Buck Shoal Township in Yadkin County. The new lino enters the county from north Iredell by way of the Shiloah Church community. It will serve, at the present time 28 families. It has been named “The Crater Line” in honor of E. R. Crater who was largely re­ sponsible for bringing it Into the county. It is estimated that woric will be completed within the next 90 days. 1940 VERSION Land Revaluation Begins In Yadkin Revaluation of Yadkin Coun­ ty land, as recently ordered by the Board of County Commis­ sioners, began Monday morning. Methods being used are identical with those being practiced in adjoining counties, it is under­ stood. —The- work—began- -in—Liberty township, and although workers state they are “off to a good start,” no estimate has been made as to when it will be com­ pleted.' ............................ Assessors are Thomas L. Hard­ ing, W. T. Fletcher, and Will Holcomb, appointed In December fey the Board of Commissioners. Members of the board state It is their hope that little In­ crease will come from farms in the rural sections, but that it has been called to their atceii- tlon that there are several In­ stances In the county where tho present valuation is entirely out of line with actual values. In the towns and adjacent terri­ tories. they point out, buildings valued at approximately $2,000,- 000.00 have been erected ai have not been appraised by a board of assessors. Appraisors are using a form that will enable them In record­ ing complete data relating to property, including total land, cropland, timber and coit of buildings. The commissioners state they are anxious to have the coopera­ tion of every property owner in the county In their effort to make a quick and equitable re­ valuation of property. SEWING HINTS When working buttonholes In a woolen fabric, cut the but­ tonhole then sew around it, about 1/lG uI an incii from the edge, with a short stitch on your sewing machine. This keeps the ciotii from stretching and also the threads from ravelling. A subscriber suggests that in order to get away from the bump where you fasten the edges ot elastic together, place the edges together without lapping. Put a piece of muslin, on either side of the elastic and stitch back and forth across tho joining muslin in order to hold.

Answer: A small amount of pruning can be done on flow­ ering shrubs at any time. Ever­ greens should be pruned several times during the summer, rt- moving only a small amount of growth at any one time, if the shrub has been neglected for years and needs a severe “cut­ ting back” to be ,put back in shape, John H. Harris, Exten­ sion landscape specialist of N. C. State College, says this should be done in late winter or early spring before growth starts Where the plant must be severe­ ly pruned, it is better to re­ duce the plant to half the de­ sired size the first year and complete the pruning operation the following year.

Good Fense Should Last Farmer 7 To 12 Years Good wire, properly strung between strong, well-braced posts should make a farm fence last from 7 to 12 years, says H. M. Ellis, Extension agricultural en­ gineer of N. C. State College. There should be a good coating of galvanizing or zinc on the wire to protect It against the elements, he says. "Some copper in the wire will add still more years of service to the fence,” Ellis stated. "The copper content should not run less than 2/10 of 1 percent, which is usually spoken of as ‘20 point’ copper. The quality of tile wire is ithe main consi­ deration in building fences, and it isn’t good economy to buy cheap wire.” Ellis also says that for a good long-lasting fence the quality of the posts and the workmanship In eiectiiig the fence must be ot the best. The posts must be big enough, properly spaced, well planted, and well braced.

In back­ ground is one of the big anti-aircraft guns landed in Greece by the British, one of the powerful reasons for the successful counter-offensive by the valiant Greeks. Two Varieties of Air Defcaise durable wood Is not available, soft timber may be treated with creosote or otherwise to make the posts last as long as the wire. “It is wise,” the specialist de­ clared, “to build your fence on paper before you start cutting posts and buying wire. North Carolina farmers spent thou­ sands of dollars every year main­ taining fences that are not es­ sential; fences 'that are of the wrong type to keep animals in or out; ^nd fences that are not worth maintaining because of poor material or poor workman­ ship." In conclusion, ElILs said, “Penolng is an important item of farni management. It pro­ tects property and reduces losses of both crops and livestock. A good fence is also an asset in giving a neat appearance and indicating that the farm owner is progressive.” ' Miss Etchison America and North Carolina rely on airplanes for National defense and soil defense. Heavily armed planes such as the giant ioiir-motorert “flying fortress” at top are frequently seen flying over the State. They help pro­ vide National del'ense. Thousands of North Carolina farm­ ers, like tlie two pictured beside the truck, have been supplied aerial photographs of their farms, similar to the one shown here. The Agricultural Adjustment Admin­ istration has made aerial photos of about 40,397 of the 48,740 square miles of agricultural land in North Carolina. Aerial photography in comiection with the AAA farm pro­ gram was started in the State in 1936 and in 1940 per­ formance in the program was checked through aerial photos in 86 counties. As a part of thehr educational work, county farm agents of the State College Service show farmers how to use the aerial photographs to check their compliance with the program. There’s Specie Of Pine For Every Area In State Choosing the kind of trees to be used in making a forest plant­ ing is much like selecting a piece of farm machinery, says R. W. Graeber, Extension forester of N. C. State College. A lot depends upon the kind and condition of the soil, und the purpose for which it will be used. Trees vary m growth habits according to soil, climate, mois­ ture, and degree of fertility. For instance, the white pine does best in the mountains, the long- leaf pine in the sandhills, the shortleaf pine In the Piedmont, and the loblolly pine in the Coastal Plain. Graeber also pointed out that every farm needs fence posts. “If you don't have a suitable supply of durable wood,” he says, “perhaps an acre or. so of lneu.st will meet this problem and at the same time, with its strong spreading root system, be of much help_in-checkitig-eroslon,|stornis;'----Even the bees will be happy with your choice, as the locust flowers are a source of good quality honey." In a further discussion of the type of forest planting to make, the Extension specialist .said; “Much of the idle land in our State is mighty poor; yet one of our better pines will grow in every section. Pines will fur­ nish us with lumber for con­ structing the farm buildings and for repairing .those we now have, and with fuel wood for heating our homes, cooking our meals, and for curing tobacco in the flue-cured areas. “Fuel wood is an important crop, since we as farmers use each year a stack of wood four feet wide, four feet high, and 7,000 miles long. Then, too, pines will produce an Income from the sales of such products as pulp- wood, poles, piling,', and saw logs.” Desert Fighter A typical British soldier on duty in Egypt is shown wearing the special desert equipment which includes a viser for eye- protection against s.ind storms.

L Highlights Of The Sunday School Lesson The Sunday School lesson for Janiuirjr 12 Is “Christ’s Valua­ tion of Personality.” — Luke 14: 1-14. Class cleava.ge Is more to bo feared in our time tlian Hitler’s hosts. In this western world we have for more than a century and a half been conducting an experiment in democracy, to de­ monstrate the equal rights and opportunity of all persons. Theo­ retically and legally, there nre no privileged classes. Most of our leaders. In politics, Industry and business, have come up from humble beginnings. Actually, of course, there has always been amongst us an aristocracy of birth and wealth, which, so long as It kept within proper bounds, has been utilized or tolerated or ignored. Of late years, winds from off blown new and drastic concep­ tions of classism Into the life of the western world. A spirit of mutual antagonism has been developed between the top and ?littom of the social structure, he "haves” and the “have nots' are in outspoken opposition to each other. This condition is fraught with gravest danger. Democracy cannot survive Its In- ten.slfloatlon. , ’ The Greatest Democrat So -we turn for counsel to our one sure Leader, the greatest democrat of the ages. We find Jesus ignoring class distinctions, and stressing the sacredness of personality., regardless, of social status. He Himself was humbly born; reared in a workingman’s home; taught th? trade of car­ penter, at which He labored un­ til He was thirty years old; asso­ ciated chiefly with the common people, and chose a little band of plain men, most of them toll­ ers, to be His closest associates and helpers. Throughout His life Jesus -was poor, living “from hand to mouth,” and often not know­ ing where he would sleep the next night. Many times His couch was the kindly earth. He en­ joined this life of poverty upon the disciples who were to take up His work when He had laid It down. Still Jesus was no demagogue or rabble*rouser. He never in­ cited class against class, al­ though He extolled the virtues of humility and simplicity. And He felt free to associate with the rich, as well as with the poor. Often, as In the present Lesson, He was a guest at aristocratic homes. His retreat when In Jeru­ salem was the prosperous home of Lazarus, Martha and Mary, In. Bethany. John Marks home in Jerusalem, with Its large up­ per room, was evidently one of affluence. At least one of the •twelve—Apo5tlesr"Malthewsr' was a man of means. . A Rebuke to Snobs So the Master freely crossed the class lines of His time, with a keen consciousness of the so­ cial amenities. He dared rebuke the Pharisee host who.Jell, short In courtesy. And always Jesus was In character, whether tlie guest of the highly placed, or a way-farer on the dusty roads of Galilee. He never cea.sed to he Himself, the ministering repre­ sentative of His Father, in all circumstances. In our Lesson, Jesu.s rebuked the snobbishness of social life, wherein the socially privileged invited, orily. members of. their own “set” to dine with them. There is implied an awareness of the dreariness and monotony, which today’s diners-out well know, of meeting only the same persons at every function: and the ceaseless exchange of social obligations. He advised all such to enlarge their interest and ex­ perience by ^inviting those who e o Le R B D W - By ¡MARGARET WOODRUFF Mr. and Mrs. I. L.

The year that has just passed I lias been'^’ tf^endou^"Fne idf i American radio—with war re­ ports coming from all sections of the worttl and listeners glued to their radio sets In offices, farms and automobiles. In no other year did listeners twist their dials so much to get news, news and more news. All of which reminds us of what we wrote more than two years ago about the situation abroad. It still holds true to­ day. The European radio picture is fantastic with the airwaves turn­ ed from a field of entertainment to a force of propaganda. In one country, residents are not permitted to hear foreign broad­ casts, In another listeners no longer know whether the station they hear is actually their own or from enemy lands. Others quietly obtain distant broad­ casts—and by tuning in commit a crime. With shells bursting around them, citizens cling to their loudspeakers, learn what is hap­ pening in other sections and are given courage to continue. Through these same speakers come official orders to the popu- lance which may mean life or death. To combat the force of radio, stations are being “jam­ med” by the enemy.

It is as if He said, in modern colloquialism, “Wake up! Snap out of it! Open your eyes to real life, and to the nature of true hospitality. Get to know people outside of your own crowd. Give your brains and your privileges a chance to function. Earn a real reward for your big dinners, which your overfed and dyspep­ tic guests can’t really enjoy.

As we seek to look, with wide perspective, upon this moment­ ous issue of class distinctions, we recall that whereas the world draws horizontal lines, dividing mankind Into upper and middle! and lower classes, Jesus Himself drew only vertical lines, between the worthy and the unworthy, between the good and the bad, between the sheep and goats.

PRESIDENT ASKS CONGRESS TO PROVIDE ARMS Billions Needed To Aid Democracies President Roosevelt in his mes­ sage to Congress Monday asked for appropriations and authori­ zations to provide "billions of dollars worth of weapons” for nations fighting against the march of aggressors in all parts of the world. Such assistance from an Amer­ ica turned into a tremendous arsenal is essential, said the President, because the future of the United States and all the Americas is menaced seriously by the tyranny of aggressor na­ tions across the sea. Without naming any specific figure, Mr. Roosevelt said that billions are needed and are ask­ ed for to provide the weapons by which democracies can de­ fend themselves. Explaining that these weap­ ons would be loaned to the em­ battled democracies — such as Britlan, Greece and China — he did not, however, make spe­ cific recommendations at this time for the machinery to carry out these transactions. That will come later. The President delivered his message in person to a joint ses­ sion of Congress which had just counted the electoral votes and declared him elected for the first third term in American history. Radio carried his words throughout tlie country and beamed them abroad in six lan­ guages. Defines Policy Mr. Roosevelt defined "our na­ tional policy” as this: “First by an impressive ex­ pression of the public will and without regard to partisanship, we are committed to all-inclusive national defense. “Second, by an impressive ex­ pression of the public will and without regard to partisanship, we are committed to full sup­ port of all those resolute peoples, everywhere, who are resisting aggression and are thereby keep­ ing war away from our hemis­ phere. By this support, we ex­ press our determination that the democratic cause shall prevail; and we strengthen the defense and security of our own nation. “Third, by an impressive ex­ pression of the public will and without regard to partisanship we are committed to the proposi­ tion that principles of morality and considerations for our own security will never permit us to acquisce in a peace dictated by aggressors and sponsored by ap- peasers. We know that endur­ ing peace cannot be bought at the cost of other peoples' free­dom.” He gave Congress assurance that "for what we send abroad, we shall be repaid, within a reas­ onable time following the close of hostilities, in similar mater­ ials, or, at our option, in other goods of many kinds which they can produce and which we need.” V. S. Threatened The President said he was speaking at an unprecedented moment in this country’s history because at no previous time has American security been as seriously threatened from with­ out as it is today.” “The American people,” he said, “have unalterably set their faces against that tyranny” re­ presented by the dictatorships across thé seas. Mr. Roosevelt reiterated his scorn of threats from the dicta­ torships that they might regard United States aid to the embat­ tled democracies as warlike acts. “When the dictatorships are ready to make war upon us, they will not wait for an act of war on our part,” he said. “They did not wait for Norway or Belgium or The Netherlands to commit an act of war.Heart of Meange "The need of the moment Is that our actions and our policy should be devoted primarily—al­ most exclusively — to meeting this foreign peril. For all our domestic problems are now part of the great emergency.” “I also ask this Congress for authority and for funds suffici­ ent to manufacture additional munitions and war supplies of many kinds, to be turned over to those nations which are now In actual war with agressor na­ tions,” the President stated. Treasurer RICHARD J. REYNOLDS, above, of Winston-Salem, 35-year-old scion of the Reynolds tobacco family, has been picked by Pres­ ident Roosevelt as treasurer of the Democratic national coi mittce.

Lodging and meals will be available on the college campus at nominal cost. Registration Is open to white men and women over 16 years of age. Director Paul reported that the four previous tobacco short courses at the college have at­ tracted approximately 650 North Carolina growers. About 250 of these growers have received cer­ tificates for attending all ses­ sions of a course. Narrow Tobacco Plant Bed Is Recommended Four good reasons for con­ structing a narrow tobacco plant bed are listed In pre-season recommendations to tobacco growers by Dr. Luther Shaw, plant pathologist of N. C. State College. He also suggests the importance of the proper loca­ tion for the plant bed. “If the tobacco bed is built narrow,” Dr. Shaw said, "more plants are produced per square yard; the danger of trampling on plants while weeding or pull­ ing is avoided; the plants can be watered more easily and uni­ formly; and fourth, and most important, narrow beds can be equipped and treated for blue mold with satisfactory results than wide ones.” The plant pathologist recom­ mends that the plant bed be 5 feet 8 inches wide to allow the standard six-foot cover to fit snugly when the fumigation method is used to control blue mold. A pathway 18 inches to 2 feet wide should be left be­ tween adjacent beds. “The benzol or paradlchloro- benzene fumigation methods are the best for controlling blue mold,” Dr. Shaw declared. “Cop- per-oxide spray is also satltfac- French ^Strong Man”;bed.” The State College specialist also suggests that the plant bet}^^ be located convenient to a .sourcsw ^ of water, and preferably near t h ^ '’* iiouse, because constant atten“ tion Is required during the de­ velopment of the young plants.__ “It is also desirable,” he says . "to locate the beds so that they will be protected as n;uch as possible from strong winds.” Rapidly assuming new import­ ance in French politics is Marcel B. Peyrouten, minister of the interior, who heads thé newly created militant secret police, and believed to be the future stronir man.” The new. police are called “Protection Guards,” and are used as special guards for Marshal Petain. tory when applied in advance of the first appearance of the di­ sease on the farm.

Many families were taken sick this week and the epidemic ap­ pears to be waning. Cooleemee and Advance appear to have very few cases while the rest of the county was hit. Mr. Anderson says while was only two years old he can distinctly remember Wheeler’s cavalry coming to his father’s home being full of horses and men and the soldiers carrylnji off all the farm supplies of every kin—a fact which he resentd even to this day.

He said he owed a doctor bill for visits at $1 each, owed for rations and his wife was sick. He said he drove ;o Winston with a little red mule and a one horse wagon; that he knew ^the warehousemiin pretty well and he begged him to get best price he could for his tobacco. Mr. Anderson says Brown ask him how much he thought his tobacco ought to bring and that he told him at least $70. Brown then put his hand on Anderson's back, the latter states, and told him he had a surprise coming. That load of tobacco that was grown on less than an acre brought $713, Mr. Anderson stated. "I was the most surprised man in this world,” Mr, Anderson said, “I had the kind of tobacco they wanted and didn’t know it.

The campaign will also include the “March of Dimes.” Boxes will soon be placed in many local business firms and in the schools of Davie county within the reach of every one so that they may contribute to the prevention and treatment of infantile paralysis and to build up our reserve fund if such cases should develop in our county. Half of the funds raised will remain in Davie county for use locally in fight­ ing infantile paralysis.

All interested teachers and those who are not teaching, but who wish to secure credit are invited to attend the meeting Friday afternoon. Secretary of State Cordell Hull and Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthma Jr. warned Cougresst Wednes­ day that the United States will l>e imperilled unless it supplies all-ont aid to Great Britain in her fight against Germany and Italy. Both appeared before the House foreign affairs commit­ tee in support of the adminis­ tration’s far-reaching British- aid bill. Hull’s testimony was devbted largely to a portrayal of the gloomy international situation which he attributed to the ruthlessncss of totali­ tarian powers. Morgenthau submitted a bal­ ance sheet of British finances which was equally gloomy in respect to Britain’s ability to pay for continuous purchases of munitions in this country— the only land in which the treasury secretary said she can obtain them. He reported that war pur­ chases and other orders in this country to be met by Britain in 1941 total $3,019,000,000. Britain's total dollar assets were Bivcn at Sl,77i5,000,000 as of January 1,1911 and an addi­ tional $1,355,000,000 will be available in doll.-ir receipts to­ ward liqiiidatlun of this obliga­ tion. "This financial plcturc which I’ve given you. I’m satisfied will pay (his year for what already has been bought,” Morgenthau said. “When it comes to finding the dollars to pay for anything like what they may need, they just have­ n’t got it.” Thei’e are some men who have already started worrying about next spring’s housecleoning. Displaying more anger than he has shown in many a day. Pres­ ident Roosevelt Tuesday declar­ ed that critics of his aid-to- Brltaln plan were guilty of the “rottenest” and “most dastard­ ly” untruths when they charged that the plan would result In ' plowing under every fourth American child.” The President named no names at a press conference, but It was immediately recalled that Senator Wheeler, Democrat ol Montana, embattled opponent ot the Roosevelt plan, had said in a speech Sund.iy night that “tiie lend-lease-give program is the New Deal’s Triple A foreign policy—plow under every fourth American boy.” As soon as he heard of the President’s remarks today, Wheeler shot back with a state­ ment that “apparently the Pres­ ident lost his temper.” He ex­ pressed the hope that his “olow under” statement would prove to be untrue, but added that every speech of the President leads the country a step “closer to war.” The President’s remarks grew out of a discussion of the re­ cently introduced bill giving him broad powers to supply war ma­ terials, and otherwise assist, countries battling the Axis pow^ ers. BLANK CHECK A reporter noted that the bill had been called a blank check, and asked for the President’s comment on that. Mr. Rosevelt said he supposed the best way to put it was to suggest that some one write him another bill that could not be so labelled and that would ac­ complish the same objectives. “That Is not an answer,” he asserted, “to those, at all, who talk about plowing under every fourth American child, which 1 regard as the most untruthful, as the most dastardly, unpatriotic thing that has ever been said.

Through walls and roof 51,5 per cent, win­dows and door cracks, 15.8 per cent and through glass and doors 32.7 per cent.The proper insulation of a building will eliminate 75 per cent of the heat which is ordi­narily lost through sidewalls and roofs. Not only will the heat be retained in winter, but eliminated In summer. A well Insulated house will save many times the cost of the Insulation job in fuel consumption, not to mention the cool comfort de­rived during the hot summer months. You would not trust the con­struction of your home to a jack-of-all-trades, nor would you want the same type of workmen insulate it. Therefore, you would naturally want none but Insula­tion specialists do the job.

Wage scales in the Ford Rouge plants are divided into three classifications: VntkilUd . . . Minimum hiring wage . 75c per hour Semi-skilled . . . Minimum hiring wage . 80c per hour Shilled . . . Minimum hiring wage . 90c per hour Higher wages are in consideration of abili^ and years of service. Minimum wage scales for unskilled labor at the Rouge plant are the highest ii the industry. Top wages for skilled labor compare favorably with, or are higher than, wages in other automobile plants. Now some facts on Ford labor conditions: Not only are sanitation and other health conditions the best in the industry, but Ford also leads in safety devices for the protection of employes. Proof of this is found in the following com- — — Thc Ford Motor-Gompany hai no -age limit for labor, and in faa «klibcrutijr attempts to keep older workers working. The average age of Ford worken at the Rouge and nearby plants ia 38.7. A recent check-up ^ows that nearly one- half the workers at these Ford plana were 40 or over, falling into these age groups: 25,819 between 40 and 50 14,731 between 50 and 60 3,377 between 60 and 70 417 between 70 and 80 12 between 80 and 90 In addition to the so-called regular em­ ployes, the Ford Motor Company has hired, and now has on the payroll, at tbe same regular hourly wage, thousands of workers who are blind, crippled or other­ wise incapacitated for normal productive work. They are not selected for their ability to build cars or to maintain the plant. They are on the payroll bccausc of Henry Ford’s belief that the responsibility of a large company to labor goes be­ yond the point at which the unfortunate worker can no longer produce profitably. The above are facts. They arc open to anyone who really wants to deal in facts. Ajiyone who wants to get a job . .. buy a car . . . or place a national defense con­ tract on the basis of fair labor treat­ ment must place Ford at the top of his eligible list.

PRESS ASSOCIATION Ben Franl'iin February is celebrated as a month of famous birth­ days, but January 17 is an anniversary of a figure that is perhaps as noted as Washington and Lincoln. This man was Benjamin Franklin and like Lincoln was a self-made character. He achieved the heights in the scientific and inventive world, was a noted humorist and through his tactfulness, served his country as a diplomat in England and France. His name is linked in each American school­ child’s mind with the famed Constitution of the United States and the issuing of the Declaration of Independence. His hand in those was to calm and smooth the differences involved over the formation of both. ^ Franklin as a legis­ lator had his own ideas for a government. He sponsored a plan, in the beginnings, for a seven-year presidential term with no re-election and also, no salary for the office of president. He was for one legislative chamber. These facts of Franklin’s political life are perhaps not as well known as his “poor Richard." He did not stir his people with speeches as did Lin­ coln, but he issued great wisdom in proverb form that is quoted as befitting modern life as was true many years ago. “It is hard for an empty sack to stand upright” and “If you want to know the value of money, go and try to borrow some” represent the man Franklin, who knew people, for he was one of the masses. Add These One of the nicest'things in starting a new year is to think of added features for your list of resolutions, or do you find you were so successful in overcoming last year’s deficiencies that you are going to rest this year? Making Now-ycar’s resolutions isn*t-as popular today as it used to be, maybe it is because folks have stopped kid­ ding themselves. This office has a suggestion to offer for a newspaper resolution that will be easy for every reader to keep. Read today’s news with your mind open, read the story behind the headline, read your editorial page to get the other fellow’s outlook and read the advertise­ ments to buy wisely for your family. A Revered Leader With the names pronounced in this present war, hurl­ ed upon the heads of the many leaders, we begin to think that all conductors in battle are disliked by the opposing side. We remark of the respect accorded Robert E. Lee, a general of a lost cause, a military genius, a Christian, a gentleman who fought steadfastly for what he felt was spiritually right. His name lives in both the North and the South and it stands in both in esteem and honor. There will be always, though the bitterness of the war has subsided, the observance in the hearts of Americans, the birthday of Robert E. Lee, on January 19.

Mr^JRqose- velt said he would ask for funds to finance it—variously estimat­ ed at from $2,000,000,000 to $10,- 000,000,000—after it is enacted. It would prohibit benefiting foreign governmentt from trans­ ferring title to or possessioni of materials obtained under the program to another government without the consent of the Pres­ ident. Mr. Roosevelt recognized the sweeping authority which would be vested In him, and he told his press conference that he did not want it. But, he said, some one must have such power to make democracy function in an emergency such as the one which confronts all democracies today. He side-stepped an Inquiry whether transfer of additional destroyers to Britain is involv­ ed, saying that none had been requested. The bill was Introdued simul­ taneously by Senate Majority Leader Alben W. Barkley (D), Ky„ and House Majority Leader John W. McCormack (D). Mass. Barkley gave assurance that it does not authorize the use of American vessels to convoy ship­ ments of materials embraced by the proposed undertaking. Labor Protected Likewise, he said. It would not waive rights which labor enjoys undw the Walsh-Healey, Wag­ ner, i'nd wage-hour laws. Noninterventionists in both chambers followed the reading of the-iKeasi»T-closPly anrl vigor considered It in the interest of our national defense," Barkley and McCormack said. They explained that the meas­ ure also would enable the United States to buy war materials in all American republics, Canada, other cpimtrles If s^h^rn-iterlal Is not available in this country. The President would not be district mission conferences. One of these conferences will be held at the local church January 25 at 7:30. Hev. R. H. Stone will speak on home missions and Rev. W. A. Linton, a foreign missionary from Korea, will dis­ cuss foreign missions. The pub­ lic is invited to attend this meeting. The sermon Tuesday morning was preached by Rev. P. J. Gar­ rison of George Lee Memorial church of Winston-Salem. He used as his subject, "The doc­ trine of a persçnal faith in a personal God.” Other elections and appoint­ ments included: Rev. R. L. Berry to fill the place of Rev. Stone on the commission on the min­ ister and his work; Arch C. Taylor of Winston-Salem elect­ ed as trustee of the Presbytery in place of A. C. Port, deceased: Rev. J. W. Luke elected trustee of Glade Valley high school: commissioners elected to the general assembly of the Presbyterian church in Winston-Salem Include Rev. S. S. Wiley and Rev. C. H.

McKeltchen of First church In Winston- Salem and J. J. Larew of Mocks- •vllle, alternates. The spring meeting of the Presbytery will be held In Yad- klnvUle April M. Interventionists promptly label ed it a declaration of war. The far-reaching measure In­ cluded an unexpected provision under which warships of friend­ ly nations could be repaired or refitted In U. S. naval, military or air bases. The President also would be given power to supply friendly powers with military In­ formation, such as details ol the navy’s secret bomb sight. The measure vests all author­ ity solely in the Chief Executive. Some quarters said that the pro­ visions go so far as to authorize him to make gifts of war weap­ ons. Roosevelt Hopeful Leaders of both liouses pre­ dicted tlie measure would be ap­ proved after “reasonable” de- .bnLtP-_.^Thj;_Pres^dei^ also was hopeful of early action. He warned at a press conference that every week the proposal is debated means a week’s delay- in delivering vital war materials to Britain and other dehiocracles re.'^istlng aggre.ssion. The measure, which foes said would circumvent provisions of the Johnson and neutrality acts banning financial aid to belliger­ ents and World War debt de­ faulters, wouid aiathorize: 1. The sale, leasing, lending or “other disposition” of war materials to any country whose defense the President deems vital to the defense of the United States. The material Includes new weapons and those on hand. 2. Testing, repairing, outfitting or otherwise placing in good working-order-any-defense-arti- cle of a friendly belligerent. This In effect .would open United States ports to all British war­ ships. They are banned at pres­ ent by neutrality proclamations which forbid entry except in the exigencies of “force majeure”— acts of God. 3. The manufacture of war ma­ terials for friendly foreign gov­ ernments in both government- owned and privately-owned ar­ senals, factories, or shipyards, 4. The release of any defense article for export. This would eliminate restrictions In the es­ pionage act of 1917 and In the embargo act of July 2, 1940, which limits these shipments to surplus materials. 5. Tho communication to friendly government of any in formation pertaining to defense weapons. Under this provision Mr. Roosevelt could turn over the bombslght or other secret mechanisms. 6. The President to determine whether the United States will accept repayment of materials loaned or leased in kind or prop erty or "any other direct or indirect benefit” which he deems satisfactory. Item six still left unanswered the question how the repayment feature would operate. Mr. Roose velt intimated, however, that In dividual contracts will be nego tlated, and that each might pro vide some specific means of re payment. The terms of the bill appear to make this authority dlscre required to publicize transactions involving the shipment of war materials to friendly nations. He told reporters that this record would be checked and double­ checked by, the accounting de­ partments. South Africa Is providing 2,- 500 homes for~chlldren”evacuat-' ed from Europe.

OUR COMPLIMENTS TO JACKSON CASH STORE Administration followers prais­ ed the measure as justified by the world emergency. Chairman Pat Harrison (D), Miss., of the Senate finance-commlttce, said I’m for it.” Senator James F. Byrnes (D), S. C., said he was ‘heartily in favor” of It and was Senator Tom Connally (D),'Tex., said he favored supplying all aid to nations resisting aggres­ sion- and described the attitude of the Rome-Berlln-Tokyo axis as one of “menace and con­ tempt." A joint statement Issued by Barkley and McCormack analyz­ ed the far-reaching scope of the legislation and ¡the vast powers which would be reposed In the President. It said that in stand­ ardizing production of United Stated war materials an those of the democracies, this country could eliminate double assembly lines and speed output. The President would decide the conditions and the manner in which foreign governments could obtain the war materials. He would have power to dispose of new materials as well as equip­ ment now in the hands of the army or navy. At his press conference, he es­ timated shipments would be 99 per cent new materials and one per cent, those already produced. He said the urgency of the situa­ tion requires this discretionary power. Translate into Law "The bill,” the statement said, simply translates into legisla­ tive form the policy of making this country the arsenal for the democracies, and seeks to carry out President 'Roosevelt’s pledge to send to these countries ‘In ever increasing numbers, ships planes, tanks and guns.’ ” Leaders \".dthheld direct com­ ment on the ¡scope of the pro­ vision which would make It pos­ sible for ships of the embattled democracies to be repaired or outfitted in U. S. naval, military or air bases. The terms of the bill are broad enough to Include aid to Greece and China, as well as Great Britain, but experts said this provision would benefit Brit­ ain chiefly.

UWHARRIE COUNCIL SENIOR CAMP OFFICIALLY NAMED HIGH ROCK BASE TO BE KNOWN AS CAMP SAPONA The Executive Board of the Uwharrle Council In a meeting last night at the Shesiiton Hotel in High Point, officially approv­ ed the name for the new senior camp located on High Rock Lake. The name which was suggested by Larry Hardin, son of E. L. Hardin of Salisbury and a sea Scout In the S. S. S. Tallassee, Salisbury, is Camp Sapona. Hardin, in his letter to the Exe­ cutive Board- suggesting the name, called attention to the fact that the river, now known as the Yadkin, was formerly called the Sapona. This was the name of a tribe of Indians whose abode was on the banks of the river, which now has been harnessed to form a source of hydro-elec­ tric power. Camp Sapona, located on the Rowan County side of the High Rock Lake some 5 miles above the dam is composed of 23 acres of land given to the Uwharrle Council by the American Alumi­ num Company, an administra­ tion building contributed by the Salisbury Rotary Club, eight cabins built by the Rotary Clubs of Lexington and ThomasvlUe, a deep well and pump house the gift of Dr. Tom and Fred Stanback, a 100 foot dock and flag pole made possible by the The theme for the month was Commodore R.

Highlights Of The Sunday School Lesson The Sunday School Lesson for Jandary 19 is “The Slighted In- vlUtion.”—Luke JUV:15-35. History’s greatest Story Teller wrapped profound and ever-en- Jarging meanings in the tales whieh IKylteew eytj had eathef ed from the life of His world. The parables of Jesus fitted the times of His hearers; and the wonder is that they apply to the contemporary scene of every gen­ eration. His familiar story of the feast to which favored guests declined Invitations, and to which the common folk were gathered In, has a present pertinency in a world that is all a-lium with talk of “social revolution” and “a new world order.' ■PrLvileged classes, the world around, have spurned the invi­ tations that were inherent in the opportunities offered to them. A more equitable order of society has all along been peaceably possible if only the i^aves” had sensed their re­ sponsibilities to the “have nots.” Because they failed to do so, we have the present war. and World-Wide mutterlngs of dis­ content. In all human reason and jus­ tice, the lot of the poor should have been alleviated, and the great gulf between classes should have been bridged. Simple ap­ plication of Christian teachings, and recognition of primal human rights, would have given us a workable social scheme that would have brought greater hap­ piness to all concerned. What Is now being achieved by violence and blood and sweat and tears could have been wrought by the Jesus way. SVivored folk too long have spurned the great in­ vitation which, accepted, would have altered their attitude to­ ward life.-Versus. Reason the parable. One man had bought a field, and must go out and see it; as if anybody but a fool would have bought property unsight, unseen. The same was true of tile man who said he must prove his new purchase of five ^uke uf The third streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor and maimed and blind and lame,” said the affronted host. His impolite friends would learn, with bitterness, of the sort of guests he thought a good sub­ stitute for them. Stiil further he enlarged his hospitality, to constrain even the outcasts of the highways and hedges to come in and share the feast. Concerning the first invited he commented, rather bitterly, "None of those men that were bidden .shall taste of my supper,” A new social scheme was put Into effect. And the Teacher meant the parable to indicate the wide sweep and comprehensiveness ot the Gospel invitation. As His inaugural speech at Nazareth had indi­ cated, the poor were to have the Good News. Throughout all the centuries since this Message was first preached, the lot of plain people of earth, the tollers and the poor, has steadily risen. Serfdom and slavery have almost wholly dis­ appeared from human society. The one bright aspect of today’s world darkness is the promise that out of it may come a new era of brotherhood and peace and general prosperity.

WARNER “CEMENT-FEED-FERTILIZERS” Most self-excusing is as un- genulne as that of the guests in said he had married a wife; which fact should have enhanc­ ed his sense of social respon­ sibility. All of the excuses were as thin as that of the Arab in Mark Twain's story, who would not lend his axe because he needed it to eat soup with. The unwilling or unready person can always find an excuse for whatever he does not do. Excusers, aiibiers, “buck- passers” are the termites who infest every enterpri.se. In real life we should make a distinction between excuses and reasons. Had the plea of the discourteous guests been based upon solid grounds they would have been valid and accepted Most of our excuses, however are not sound reasons. It is those who are most faithless In per­ formance who are most prolific in excuses. That is why the conscientious person should shun excuses as devices of the devil We sympathize with the angry host, whose hospitality had been spurned, and who easily saw through the transparent excuses offered. Of course, the picture represents the impatience of God over the unwillingnes of the Jews to accept His prof- ered Way ....It is well ‘ to rnuse occasionally upon the indigna­ tion of God: the current concep­ tion of the Almighty as a good- natured, easy-going, all-forgiv­ ing, amorphous Being has no warrant In Scripture.

OUR COM PLIM ENTS TO DR. MAÏÏHEW M. MILLER “OPTOM ETRIST" (By Edith Bollinger) Do you ever stop to realize that your eyes, like other parts of your body, need occasional attention? Yet, how easily recog­nizable is the fact that your eyes, so vastly more important than most of your body, are not perpetual in their functions. The science of the eyes has dis­closed the necessity of glasses 'to correct poor vision from many causes. To fail your eyes in this essential need may lead to grave consequences and even cause Ir­reparable damage. To picture the loss of sight, untold grief and sorrow is a most unpleasant thought. Yet, the dire realiza­tion of such a tragedy may bring happiness to hundreds of people in satisfactorily adjusting the matter by ithe use of proper glasses, prescribed by a reliablel optometrist.• DR. MA.TTHEW M.

His patients and friends heartily recommend his service to the public.In making this Special New Year Issue, the writer wishes to compliment this efficient opto­metrist upon his indefatigable efforts in the practice of the pro­fession and highly recommend his service to anyone having trouble with their eyes.

People eat more meat when they are working and earning regularly,” he pointed out, "and the fanner who combines live­ stock production with cotton or tobacco growing will benefit the most.” Prof. Hostetler says that the re-employment will help ' the llvesboc'i-cotton farmer In two ways, namely: 'Workers can utilize more cotton, and they can consume more of the live­ stock products that are products through the feeding of cotton­ seed by-products. In this connection, the State College leader cited a recent es­ timate that one hour’s wage rc' ceived by the average American will buy 2.1 pounds of beef, whereas the same amount of labor will earn an Englishman only 1.4 pounds of beef, a Ger­ man 0.9 of a pound, and a Rus­ sian 0.3 of a pound—when meat is available at any price. “The basic 1941 farm outlook Indicates that reductions In un­ employment, coupled with in­ creased earnings of those who have not been classed as un­ employed, should raise the de­ mand by consumers for such farm products as meat, dairy «nd poaltry prodBLtJ, vuutHutJUJi.

The program of distributing surplus cotton to low income families is sponsored by the Stale College Extension Service, the Agricultural Adjustment Ad­ ministration, and the Surplus Marketing Administration of the U. S. Department of Agricul­ ture. Although the mattress program did not start until mid-summer of 1940 In most of the counties, ■aiready-39;0e9- mattresses “Have been made In 83 counties, and alK>ut 46,000 more applications are on hand. Of these, some 24,000 have been approved and cotton and ticking Is on hand In the counties for making these mattresses. “We feel that the comforter program will be a great aid m our program of helping low in­ come rural families,” Miss Cur­ rent declared. “We expect to place 50-pound cotton mattresses in 100,000 North Carolina farm homes, and that means all of these families can receive a comfort, thereby 'sleeping not only on a corner of the cotton surplus but under a part of It.” The comforts will be made in the mattress-making centers, and competent supervisors will be_on_hand to-show-the-faml- lles how to make the comforts, just as they are now instructing In the making of the mattresses. The only charge for these ma­ terials is a small fee for the cost of such materials as thread, needles, and fuel to heat the and some fruits. Our North Carolina cotton and tobacco farmers might as well face these facts and diversify their oper­ ations,” Hostetler declared. In conclusion, the animal hus­ bandman suggested that farm­ ers get In touch with their coun­ ty farm agents and discuss with these representatives of the State College Extension Service the best types of livestock to raise for the particular com­ munity In which they live.

Young Apple Trees Need To Be Pruned There are two good reasons why young apple trees should be pruned, says H. R. Niswong­ er, horticulturist ot the N. C. State College Extension Service. They are: (1) To secure a strong frame-work capable of support­ ing large crops of fruit with the least breakage ot branches; and (2) to Influence the size at which young trees bear fruit. "One year trees set out this year,, without side branches, should have one-third to one- fourth of their height removed in order to force out strong mtfcfuT pfuiKBea a fratngj work,” Niswonger stated. "On a one-year or two-year tree with lateral branches. It Is wise to select several of the larger branches arising from the trunk to serve as the future frame­ work of the tree. These laterals should be well distributed around the body of the tree, 6 to 8 Inches apart. If there are two central branches or leaders arising from near one point, one of theses should be removed. All other side branches arising from the trunk should be removed. If the laterals and the leader or central branch are long and willowy, they should be cut back m^erately. The leader needs less pruning than the laterals.' The horticulturist reports that tests conducted at the Moun­ tain Experiment Station showed that light pruning developed trees with a larger trunk dia­ meter, and produced larger crops of apples at an early age. Hie yields" Irom light pruning as compared with heavy pruning ranged from one to 4.4 bushels per tree. Detailed Information on prun­ ing the ai>pie tree is contained in Extension Circular No. 205, which is available free upon re­ quest to the Agricultural Editor N. C. State Obllege, Raleigh.

PRESS ASSOCIATION The Newspaper Award On the front page of this week’s paper is a picture of the trophy that THE ENTERPRISE was awarded last week by the North Carolina Press Association. This trophy was the first prize for the “best community service” during 1940 for all non-daily newspapers in the state that are members of the association. Of course we are proud of this coveted honor. Com­ munity service is the backbone of a newspaper, particular­ ly a non-daily newspaper, and this award is the one that is most highly prized by an individual newspaper. The entry that won tlie prize was a series of six articles, with pictures of prominent Davie farm families — Luther Walker, H. Fries Bowden, J. H. Sparks, A. D. Richie, Lon­ nie L. Miller and Granville Leagans. It may be of interest of home folks to know that when the stories appeared in the paper there was no thought of submitting them in any newspaper contest. The editor of the paper, in close cooperation with D. C. Rankin, county agent, who deserves a lot of credit for the work which he did in making the series possible, saw a chance to portray the much-deserved success of some of our leading farmers and at the same time to promote better farm life. There are many farmers in this county who are doing worth-while things that are of interest to their neighbors and other farmers. From time to time we expect to feature these accomplishments. Farm life today is not the drudgery it once was. It is a way of life that is sweet, deeply satisfying, profitable and American. While we are taking a grateful bow for the award. m wouRnTKe'td extend oU rrohgVaCiniitldlU 10 ItU^ HRl'Vtiy Laffoon and his staff of the Elkin Tribune for winning the first prize for general excellence. Winning this honor is quite a habit with Mr. Laffoon and it bespeaks the out­ standing job done eacli week in presenting a masterpiece in a well-groomed, excellently-printed newspaper. Such an accomplishment is an art that requires skill, patience and infinite attention to detail. Sounds Encouraging The usual predictions for the fresh year are heard to right and to left. Dire in many cases, the uplift comes with the facts of increased advertising, a happy outlook for farmers, a higher rate of activity for industry and this sounds good to any ear full of drastic economic news voiced by many. The customer buying, the producer advertis­ ing, is slated as a fine thing for the country weekly for 1941. Whatever the economic changes that are wrought we hope that the prediction of the ’‘Biggest advertising year In the history of the newspaper business,” made by a name prominent In the advertising field, is true. But in this business, as In every other way of drawing dividends, you can’t sit back and expect this Increased business to simply fall Into the lap! We editors must W r k together with the advertisers In every community and figure out the good for both of us as well as value to the consumer. KIND. OF STRIKING NEEDED RIGHT NOW!

John Barrymore, the Great Lover, was teamed with Rudy Vallec, the Vagabond Lover, and the Uncle: “Why, Willie, I’m glad to see you. Have a soda. Walter! Two large sodas, please.” Willie: “I’ll have the same.” Professor: “What is your Idea of civilization?” Student: “It’s a good idea. Somebody oiight to start it.” "I’m so sorry,” said the hat- less woman mixed up in an acci­ dent. “It was all my fault.” “Not at all, madam,” replied the driver of the truck with a gallant gesture. "I was to blame myself.” “But I insist the fault was mine. I was on your side of the street.” “That may be true,” he said, but my dear madam, I am re­ sponsible for the collision. I saw you coming blocks away and had ample opportunity to start down a side street.” Doctor—"What did you eat for breakfast?" Rastus—"I et seven pancakes.’ New Circular Issued And Another Revised Publication of a new clrcula.7 on "Azaleas” and the revision of another circular on "Fruits and Nuts for Home Use” Is an­ nounced by F. H. Jeter, agri­ cultural editor of N. C. State College. Both are available for free distribution to interested citizens of North Carolina. The former is Extension Cir­ cular No. 246, titled ‘Azaleas,” and the revised publication Is Extension Circular No. 210, "Fruit and Nuts for Home Use.” Requests should be addressed to the Agricultural Editor, N. C. State College, Raleigh, specify­ ing the name and number of the circular. The Azalea circular was auth­ ored by James G. Weaver, flori­ culturist of the State College horticultural department. In It Prof. Weaver lists the varieties of azaleas best adapted to the various climate and soil condi­ tions of the State. He also rec­ ommends methods of propaga­ tion, preparation of the soil, planting, mulching, fertilization, watering, pruning and winter protection. The latest information on varieties and fertilization of fruits and nuts is Incorporated in the revised Extension Circu­ lar No. 210 by H. R. Nlswonger. Extension horticulturist, and E. B. Morrow, research horticultur­ ist of Slate College. The publication on fruits and nuts is expected to be In great demand this year as North Caro­ lina farm people turn their at­ tention towards an improve­ ment in nutritional standards, and towards farm enterprises to supplement cash Income. "The PICKED UP AROUND TOWN "A bright note at this time,” believes ~Blll,“ "ls~the news "that America has more men than women.” John says things have come to a pretty pass when a country is so in need of food that they think spinach is a luxury. “After settling my Xmas bills," sighs Jimmy, "it may be more blessed to give, and It’s a lot more expensive.” “The more the swallow,” avers Tim, “the less the resolution.” “One thing about all this world war talk,” says Ed, "It puts a crimp In the afternoon chatter about operations.” According to Will, it may be cold’ over there but General Sherman’s definition for war still holds good! “It wasn’t so long ago,” re­ calls Tommy, “that all Germany wanted was Paris.” Joe reminds us that If you always follow the crowd, all you see is their backs. ‘Making dress-shlrt vests of this glass preparation,” says Jim, "makes me wonder If It Is easy to wipe off the gravy.” Bill says he longs for the beau­ ty that is a normal Ufe. ANALYSIS Of LEND-LEASE BILL What will Congress do with the lend-lease bill? Here Is an effort to give a candid opinion on some of the questions involved. No cor^ respondent is omniscient, of course, and the following mere­ ly attempts to summarize the general feeling in the capital at present. Will the lend-lease bill Pass? —Yes, In all probability. WiU it be amended?—Yes, In all probability. — Will the amendments emasctt one side may grow stubborn. Is the White House being con­ ciliatory?—In this sense “con­ ciliatory” is a technical term; it means at this juncture, Is the White House prepared to go through with the usual give- and-take ritual that satisfies Congress? Best advice Is the White House is "conciliatory.” Is Congress spilt on party lines? —No. If the Democrats show reasonable finess and statesman­ ship the issue can be kept above politics. This answer could be late the bill?—Most people don’t think so. Will the fight be bitter?—It may be; particularly if it Is pro­ tracted. Will it be protracted? — The best guess is that there will be speedy action; but that in Con­ gress, is a relative term.

But he earns his money playing a novachord and If you are one of those faithful listeners to day time serials, you hear him many times a day. Steele was making $50 week­ ly in California but threw it up when he heard of a chance to get with NBC in the east.. The Job turned out to be that of a page boy but he took It anyway and during lunch hours, he mas­ tered the Hammond electric or­ gan. 'His big break came when an NBC client needed some no­ vachord music and Steele got the Job. Today he is hoard on dozens of programs during the week end made musical history by turning out an album of Duke Ellington tunes with the novachord as the chief Instrument. But one thing about Ted, he remembers his days at $15 per week and is a good example that you can rise •from the ranks. CHATTER: Tlie past twelve months was the year radio went in for war reporting In a big way and someone thought it a good Idea to let Americans hear bombs actually falling In Lon­ don. It was the year the Repub­ lican and Democratic parties spent over one and one-half mll- uii|jiuaiui.umu BarfyiiiJit! mmn.- ed as a radio comedian . . . A comparatively new quiz show, Ralph Edwards’ “Truth or Con­ sequences,” topped “Information Please” In the Crosley survey . . . Fred Allen switched sponsors and Eddie Cantor returned to the air . . It was the year that saw great strides In television and frequency modulation broad­ casting . . . One of the most dramatic programs was broad­ cast from Mohtevldeo — the scuttling of the Graf Spee . Fred Allen had a time of It with a badly-btjhaved eagle . . . and Ben Wain broke all precedent by remaining on the Hit Parade program the entire year. STORY OF THE WEEK: Dur­ ing the Aunt Jenny program re­ hearsal last week a workman entered the studio and started to use a small electric drilKon the piano. "Pardon me,” said one of the actors to him, “Where you sent by ASOAP?” WAGES The general level of farm wages on January 1, at 124 per­ cent of the 1910-14 average, was five points higher than a year earlier, sa.vs the U.

Satan—Why the laugh? First Devil—I Just put a woman In a room with a thousand hats and no mirror. Observing a young lady stand­ ing alone, Archibald stepped up to her and said: "Pardon me, but you look like Helen Black.” Sally: “Yes, I know I do, but I look far worse in white.” The tramp called at a home and asked for food: Housewife: “And how would you like a nice chop?” Tramp: "That all depends, lady—Is It lamb, pork or wood?” Super—“Define courtship.” Foreman—"A man running after a woman until she catches him.". "Here come a friend of mine. He’s a human dynamo.” “Really?” "Yes, everything he has on is charged.” Оий DEMOCRACY expanded a gooa aeai. Repub­ licans have a duty to oppose; the Republicans in Congress have been less "co-operatlonist” than Mr. Willkle; also Republicans distrust President Roosevelt. But the answer “no,” still stands for the above question at present. What Is the effect of the Willkle^Landon difference?-Not cracy requires reasonable de- much, save In a negative sense. .....................................It emphasizes the non-partisan split dividing the same party. Neither Mr. Wlllkie nor Mr. Lan- don actually controls many votes In Congress; their influence is rather on the electoral masses. If they spoke with united voice, their moral power would be great. As it is on this Issue, they tend to concel each other out. Are the Democrats united?— Yes, to an unusual degree. How does this come about?— For some reason, never com­ pletely explained, the South leads other sections in sympathy and support for Britain. This is shown repeatedly in public opinion polls. The conservative Southern Wing of the Democrats is now behind the President. Carter Glass Is typical. What effect does this have? —With Southern support Mr. Roosevelt’s "paper” majority be­ comes a real majority. Demo­ crats have 66 out of 96 Sen­ ators; 268 out of a total of 435 Representatives. Southern sup­ port far more than outweighs Democratic losses from isola­ tionists, even if Mr. Roosevelt gets no Republican votes at all. bate, and this includes at least a minimum of public hearings. Even in an emergency. Congress rarely moves very fast. But how long do you think it will take?—Three weeks would be amazingly fast: five to six weeks more normal. These are only guesses. Do opponents think they can stop the bill?—No. They do not at this time, whatever they may say publicly. Their plan is to defeat the bill by amendments. What amendments will be passed? — The most difficult question so far. Best guess is some time limitation of the Pres­ ident’s proposed authority. Will this lUimage the bill?— Chances are—no. What is hap­ pening is largely a trading pro­ position. Drafters of bill have ■asked for more than Uiey expect to get; at the appropriate time they will make concessions. The normal expectancy is that salu­ tary amendments will be ap­ proved. These will also satisfy Icfglsla'tors that they are not rubberstamps, The qualification here Is, of course, that anything may happen In a bargain and She may wear a riding habit when she doesn’t ride; wear a bathing suit when she doesn’t swim; a golf outfit when she can’t play golf; but when she puts on a wedding gown—she means business.

Light In Yadkin The Influenza epidemic, which has closed many schools, theatres and caused the cancellation of many public gatherings In other counties of the state, apparently has not greatly affected Yadkin county. According to Fred C. Hobson, Superintendent of schools, who has been keeping close check on all county schools for the past week, comparatively few cases are present In the schools. A check with several physi­ cians throughout the county in­ dicates that the disease Is more prevalent among adults than among children of school age. None of the physicians stated that in , his opinion the disease had reached the epidemic stage. However, they did report “a good many” oases throughout the county. All schools of the county re­ port an “average” attendance, with.East-Bend and West Yad­ kin boasting a_bfttiir'tiiBi'V aver­ age attendance for the time of year. 'Only at Yadklnvllle where 61 absences couW be attributed di­ rectly to Influenza, Is the situa­ tion in any way alarming.” the superintendent said today. “Un­ less there is a definite increase in the number of eases, the but a woman will give one dollar for a two dollar Item she doesn’t want.

Three years later our average was 6,933 pounds of milk, 356,5 pounds of butterfat with an average test of 5,32%. This is an Increase in produc­ tion of 2599 pounds of milk, 139,9 pounds of butterfat, “Our Increase In production came from feeding better rough­ age, thorough milking, giving each cow a six to eight weeks dry period, conditioning the cows while dry, use of better herd sires, culling out the boarder cow, milking three times per day, and studying the D, H, I.

BRITISH IMPROVE "PREDICTOR” TO STOP GERMAN NIGHT BOMBERS By R. MailUrd Stead Military Correspondent of The Christian Science Monitor IXftlDON. — As Britain’s new day and night air offensive agmlnst Axis Powers gathers mo­ mentum, evidence accumulates to ahow that the Royal Air Force 1« apparently “getting the edge” on tne German Luiiwaiie ai Ia«k. Today it is possible to say with assurance that progress Is teing made by the British to­ ward minimizing the menace of the Oerman night bomtwr. — Thlsisn’t^surmise: It“ is~a statement of fact based on the RMHt responsible information. It is not a question of an elusive sohitlon “Just around the corner” —which unfortunately was the innpresslon the public was al­ lowed to obtain several months ago with resulting disappoint­ ment when the Germans later smashed up Coventry, Southamp­ ton, London, and other cities. R is a question of technical research, expedited to the ut­ most, having reached a point where the widening application of its outcome starts to be trans­ latable into terms of increased Nazi bomber losses. Germans Admit Losses Friday night, for example, the Germans declared that six planes which raided Portsmouth and other targets in Southern Eng- land iailed lo gel holhe. TKe British officials communique claimed only two brought down, but this was not taken as an indication of the Nazis overesti­ mating their losses since it is believed that the guns of Brit­ ain’s night fighters probably took a heavier toll than six. The invariable British policy is to claim as victims only those whose destruction Is corrobor­ ated by Irrefutable visual evid­ ence and at night this Is much harder to obtain than in the day­ time. Left out of account, there­ fore, are marauders so badly winged that they fall in the sea or are blown to small pieces by a direct hit on their high explo­ sive cargoes. I am not permitted to indicate the lines of investigation upon which progress has been made that provides British defense organizers with what they con­ sider a solid basis for anticipa­ tion that the night bomber will be subdued fairly soon. I am, however, permitted to say that It relates to Improved "predictor' Instruments which can put an­ tiaircraft guns and fighters on­ to their targets with a greatly reduced margin of error. Already one type of light quick flrer aided by the latest pre- dictor contrivances has shown that it can guarantee a hit with­ in the first 20 shots. As guns improve so bombers have to be improved to elude them. Which Is another way of saying that both In Britain and ample, a cloudy night caA ac­ tually help rather than hinder bombers by lighting up the target with reflection from the clouds. Differ on Flyine Altitures A great difference In mili­ tary offectiveness Is said to exist between British and German bombing because the Royal Air Force flies low over targets 3,000 feet or under, and the Luftwaffe doesn’t. This prompted me to ask, "Are the Nazi ground de­ fense poor?” The reply was: "We would very much like to have the Germans lly low over here.” This state­ ment was followed by the obser­ vation that the form of defense which the Germans exploit best is the "barrage,” using that much-abused word in an accur­ ate sense. Britain doesn’t favor this mode of fire any more. A barrage properly speaking is a wall of fire put up so tliat the plane flies into It, and though noise may comfort civilians, It Is extravagant of ammunition and must be timed exactly to be of any use. It is regarded here as the counsel of despair. An Important Discovery What has been developed now is "predictor concentration,” a method calculated to bring the fire of several guns to bear on a point In the sky where the plane will arrive at the same time as the shells. The accuracy of British pre­ dictor fire is one of the discov­ eries of the war. Nazi planes have their undersides painted with a "matt black” in order to reflect as little light as possible from searchlights which means that they are invisible from the gfouna at a n yneiKnt.- Fights Inflation O U R COMPLIMENTS TO THE W.

Powells Have Sunday Guests OALAHALN. — Mr. and Mrs. Chapman Powell of High Point visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Powell Sunday. Alice Anderson, little daugh­ ter of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Ander­ son, who has been real sick Is improving. Mr. and Mrs. 'Wayne Merrell are spending this week with the latter’s parents. Mr. and Mrs Germany there Is a tremendous contest going on between air­ craft constructors trying to make bombers fly higher and gunmak- ers striving to enable artillery to shoot further. As the strug­ gle rises up to the stratosphere advantages accrue to the anti­ aircraft gun—first because this Increase in altitude serves to keep the raider higher up, mak­ ing it more dltflcult to hit ' a target: second, because the more rarefied the atmosphere, the less maneuverable the plane be­ comes; and, third, because in the rarefied atmosphere, the anti­ aircraft shell fragments retain, over a longer period, the velo­ city Imparted to them when the projectile explodes. Clustered Beams for Beacons While details of Britain’s new technique of antiaircraft defense are strictly secret certain aspects are obvious to anybody who has witnessed recent raids—such as the fact that searchlights ap­ pear no longer to be employed Rs^adjuncts to the!!gùniJbut_are used instead when the artillery Is silent and the night fighters up. Unlike tbe Oermane who con­ tinue to place a great deal ot faith on what might be termed static sheaves of light, tbe Brit­ ish seem more disposed to use clustered beams as beacons, monlns-the -fighters—to-4he enemy’s locality—a notion that seems reasonable enough when one realizes that a searchlight can Illuminate the sky more than 20,000 feet up unless clouds In­ tervene. The public naturally prefers to see and hear signs of intense defensive activity during a raid and has a tendency to criticize the sparing use of lights and guns. It isn’t generally under­ stood that a searchlight can be a two-edged weapon. For ex- But the ruse doesn’t deceive British gunners In the slightest for they are relying on sound not sight. How much more discerningly they are relying now than formerly Is evidenced by the"fact~thaf"the~{!xpendlture of ammunition per plane brought down is only one-third of what it used to be. Accurate predictor fire means that a bomber has continually to alter its course, and the policy with the guns therefore is to harass the marauder as far a- way from the target as possible, keep him dodging around, and persuade him if possible to drop bombs at the wrong place. The success of the antiaircraft guns is measured by the extent to which this Is accomplished. The Importance of doing this is heightened by the Nazi’s tech­ nique in sending over experi­ enced pilots with loads of In­ cendiaries to start fires so that the less-seasoned navigators fol- For AH Kinds or Job Printinf— Call The Enterprise ! ! !

Highlights Of The Sunday School Lesson . The Sanday school lesson for fm uaxy 28 Is “Christ’s Concern for the Lost/’—Luke XV. War has warped the public mind. It has hardened our hearts and dulled our sensitive­ ness. In the case of many of us, the spirit of compassion has been over layered by the spirit of vindictiveness. We read the re­ ports of the sinking of Gonnan or Italian ships, and of the des- t.ninMnn .nf.pnriTiy llvfs In (ipr many, Italy, Albania and Egypt, and we exult as bver good rews. We rarely give thought to the miseries of the millions in con­ centration camps. All of these innocent victims of the war- lust of leaders are -suffereds whose lot should quickcn our purposes for peace and justice. We cannot abate the prosecution of his present war between pag­ an barbarism and idealism; but we should fight within ourselves to retain the Christian attitude of pity and helpfulness. Con­ cern for all victims of misfortune Is a characteristic of those who would walk the Jesus way. To come out of the present strug­ gle with hard and selfish and Jrindlctive hearts would be really to lose the war The Master’s Master Motive. Outstanding in the qualities Ood In the wonders of creation. The splendor of the Creator who set the spheres to rolling, and rules the immeasurable universe engrossed Him less than the truth that God marks the spar­ row's fall, and nourishes the lily of the field, and is pitiful of the poor, and yearns for the re­ covery of all the lost children ot His family. The God that Jesus portrayed had for His other name Love. Three Immortal StBrie.s--- Ing one to the other, "This man recelveth sinners, and eateth with them.” They put the eccle­ siastical ban upon Jesus. This feeling of iiostllity never abated until finally they saw Him on the Cross. Even there, as a dy­ ing act, Jesus forgave a notori­ ous sinner, a criminal, and pro- mi.sed him tlie Paradise which t»: these aristocrats thought was || their peculiar heritage. Mum- H bling complaints in their be.irds, and criticizing openly one to another, and even In public, the ecclesiastical leaders of His day outlawed the Teacher from Na­ zareth. Nearne.ss of “Far Country” For the "far country" of sin is startlingiy near to every one of us. One misstep and we are In it. We do not need to go to New York’s Bowery, where today’s bread lines conceal men who a short time ago were affluent and respected, for examples of the proximity of the life that Is alien from goodness and God. The rwssibility of moral collapse Is dangerously near everybody. Most of us are potential prodigals; and none know this so well as the salntliest. The holier a per­ son is the more clearly he sees the awfulness of sin. There is none of us outside the need of God’s forgiving, seeking love; Our Lesson’s three stories all end on a note of happiness. Jesus magnified the gladness that there is over the finding of the lost. He pictured heaven as a place iwhere joy Is Increased whenever a lost life is found, a sinner redeemed. The realm of perfect bliss, according to this repeated statement of the Sa­ viour, is made more blissful by the repentance of a blundering, earthbound .sinner. So It Is pos­ sible for mortal man to add to hpnven’.s tnv.«;--------- This aspect of God is most beautifully pictured in the three immortal stories that make up the fifteenth chapter of Luke— the stories of the lost sheep, the lost coin and the lost son. Not to be familiar with th5m Is to confess one’s self uneducated. In terse, simple, vivid, gripping language they set forth, as para­ bles, the solicitude of the Hea­ venly Father for the lost. Their contrast with most modern books is complete. Persons who are bothered by the day’s clouded speculations upon religions may find a good portrait of the character of God in the.se simple tales. The Other Kind of Men We all like to learn the con­ ditions and motives that inspired the writing of our favorite liter­ ature. Wo are left in no doubtof the world’s greatest Teacher as to what caused the telling of was His compassion. He felt ceaseless concern for the down and out. Any sort of suffering touched His heart, and inspired Him to action. For the proud and self-sufficient He had out­ spoken scorn; but for the suf­ fering and the lost Jesus was the Good Shepherd. Lofty and deep is the truth that Jesus mirrored a God who is pitiful to the poor, to the handicapped, the burdened, - to the sorrowing. He consistently represented the Infinite as a Father who cares. Unlike the He­ brew Psalmists, He did not dwell upon the greatness and glory of these tales by Jesus. The crowds that attended His appearance and utterances were lowly folk; many of them the outcasts of so­ ciety. Notorious publicans — the hated tax collectors—and shame­ less sinners hung upon the words of this Rabbi who spoke as never man spake. Jesus encouraged them, and even dined with them This roused the ire of the "pious” professional, the Phari­ sees and the scribes. These men were the socially correct and exclusive leaders of the time Religion was to them primarily a matter of good form. So they murmured and complained, say- C A N T Q U IT By îack Sords Navy’s New Chief Clyde Parks Visits Parents HUNTING CREEK. — Buddie Beck continues very ill.

Angell, Jeweler Farm Questions Are Answered Question: What are the mam points in getting the highest price for eggs? Answer: T. T. Brown, Exten­ sion poultry specialist of State College, has outlined a slx-ttoiat lespedeza on better soils, advises E. C. Blair, agronomist of the State College Extension Service. Korean is not adapted to the Coastal Plain, he says. Blair stated that the scarcity and high price of Kobe variety seed will undoubtedly cause Coastal Plain farmers to sow Korean Instead. "These farmers are likely to be disappointed, he declared. “Korean lespedeza makes a very weak growth on most Coastal Plain soils, espe­ cially on the very sandy and very acid soils. The Extension specialist says that Koke lespedeza Is well worth the difference in price of seed, because of Its far greater yield In hay. The seed can be made to go further by drilling them on small grain Instead of broad­ casting them. If drilled one- half Inch deep In late Febru­ ary, with superphosphate, basic slag, fertilizer or lime, 15 pounds of seed will plant an acre. Thirty or more pounds of seed should be used when broadcast. Blair suggests that Coastal Plain farmers use soybeans or cowpeas for a hay crop If Kobe lespedeza seed cannot be obtain­ ed.

CommandsCaribbean "SECRET WEAPON" IN GERMANY HAS’ BEEN HARD WORK; U. S. FACES SAME By C. E. GRIFFIN The one overshadowing prob­ lem today is preparation for de­ fense. Whether this defense is to take the form of aid to Brit­ ain or of an independent pre­ paration is a political question which Is irrelevant In the sense that either program calls for Increased production. So the for­ mulation of the fundamental problem can be narrowed down to the statement that our prob­ lem is to get production and more production. Indeed this has been our big problem for a long time, but there is this dif­ ference—and a hopeful one— that we recognize it today while as a nation we have long been confused on the importance of production. The reason for this difference is that as long as we were deal­ ing with things that were to be bought and solid in the market place, farmers, workers, and en­ terprisers were immediately in­ terested in the value of their outputs, and it is true that value of output can be increased by scarcity as well as by abundance. That line of reasoning was false as far as national interests were concerned, but It was an easy fallacy to slip into, and slip into it we did. But no one is going to slip into the error of thinking that by some newfangled econo­ mics we can have more tanks by' producing fewer of them. So| at least the air has been clear­ ed and we know what the prob­ lem is. Thai On» Saliitl»w that the profit both in present production and planning for the future should be retained as far as possible. Germany’s most Important "se­ cret weapon” is neither secret nor mysterious: it Is merely hard work toward a single goal. We are starting with a serious psy­ chological handicap In the vague philosophy of prosperity through scarcity. But because that phil­ osophy have never squared with American common sense it is not Impossible to shake It off. And shake it off we must If we are to be strong, and apparently In this world of 1941 one must be strong to be free.

Rld- ^nbQ.uc._attended the furniture Now how do you solve a prob­ lem of more production? Again the answer Is not new. It is by work, liurd work, and more of it by more people. But here we do run into a problem created by questionable thinking and fwllcy of recent years. We had, through the efforts of our scien­ tists, engineers, and business managers, greatly increased our potential productivity. An in­ creased potential productivity can broadly, speaking, be used in either of two ways. We can work as hard and as long as be­ fore and get increased output or we can work less and be satis­ fied with the same output. We chose the second, possibly for the reason that as a nation we did not have enough Imagina­ tion to conceive of the first. Now we are in a situation in which we very much need to fol­ low the first. Can we change our habits of thought and prac­ tice in this way? More specifical­ ly, can we drop'the six-liour day and five-day week programs that gained acceptance when we fan­ cied that our problem was a sur­ plus of goods and a shortage of jobs? To meet this problem what incentive can be provided? One show in High Point Monday. FLU SrrUATION The flu in Cooleemee has been light, compared with other parts of the county and state.

The volunteers completely fill­ ed tlie county’s quota of 13, ac­ cording to Troy W. Martin, clerk of the Yadkin County Selective Service Board. Families and friends, many in tears, were present to see the county's largest contingent of volunteeis leave for mllitp,ry service. They boarded a bus leaving Yadkinville at 8 o’clock. Those leaving Included: Ray- mony Howard Fletcher, Fred Wesley Hutchens, Avery Lee Felts, Ernest M^ers, Claude Ed­ ward Ireland, Fred William Pen- dry, Johnson Arvls Wall, Beau­ fort Ellis Ring, James Davis Ar­ nold, Tang Qarrls, Everett Worth Hobson, Herman Luther Bltkley and Wlllls Francis Vanhoy. is the patriotic appeal. There are several obstacles impairing the effectiveness of that appeal: One Is the fact that we are ac­ tually at peace and it Is difficult to attain such a high enthusiasm for potential defense as for ac­ tual war. Another is that the reports of our political leaders on progress and needs are natural­ ly colored with wishful thinking and a desire to show a good record. The candor of a Church­ ill is needed. Another incentive Is economic. Labor, and parti­ cularly union labor, has laid stress on the hourly wage as against total Income. Intelligent leadership of labor can help to reverse that thinking. Unpleasant Troth But with all this increased ef­ fort to produce, it is probably not possible to put forth a supreme war effort and live as well as though we were produc­ ing consumption goods. Living standards and social gains alike may have to be adjusted to war­ time economy. That will be too bad, but wo may have to face It. War Is not one of the finer things of life, and we cannot, when the immediate stimulus is past, get more of butter by pro­ ducing more bullets, or more automobiles by producing more tanks. This is another unplea­ sant truth, but I believe that Americans are ready to facc it. Further, we will sooner or later face the problem of readjust­ ment to a more normal economy. Then it will be important that our equipment can be re-em- ployed In peaceful pursuits. That might be thought to require that government planners should work out the details of plant ex­ pansion to facilitate that future change-over. But for this plan­ ning it will be better to rely upon the foresight of business men, and this solution implies Biiuiii'i faiiiuu Ljuurne.

Britain, these Informants be­ lieve, will beat off the German invasion attempt, but only after sacrificing half ot her air force, three-quarters of her battle fleet, and at least 250,000 troops. Along the beaches and behind them tonight Britain tightened the lines of preparation for the expected assault, particularly the threat of gas. TRY TO PREPARE PEOPLE Authorities considered requir­ ing a gas mask as an admission ticket" to bomb shelters and the Ministry of Home Security weigh­ ed plans for civilian gas alarm prácticos to shake Britons back into consciousness of this men­ ace. In fact, not since the Munich crisis and the actual outbreak of the wav has Britain evinced such concern over gas attacks. In the tense days of Munich, 45.000.000 gas masks were Issued to Britons and when that crisis passed they were put back Into their cardboard boxes. After the outbreak ot the war, with the late Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain himself set­ ting the fashion. Britons wore the gas masks camera fashion on straps over their shoulders. As the first air raids passed ^ffithout the appearanvü of gas, they dropped the custom and now only one-fifth the jjopula- tlon carries masks. 4.000.000 IN ARMS Meanv/hile, the three fighting services have Intensified pre­ parations, not for one landing of German troops, but for sev­ eral. wo purely bmisn army m his- tory ever reached the number, 4.000.000 of today’s combined reg­ ular and home guard forces. And no British army of history ever has undergone the comprehen­ sive training that has been given the present one since Dunker­ que. The buck privates have been reequipped with a multiplicity of modern weapons, and many tac­ tics dear to the Old Guard have been dropped by the younger and less "1941-mlnded” officers of the high command.

BAILEY FAVORS AID TO BRITAIN The policy of the United Stales Government with respect to the war in Europe, and in view of complications. In-.the. Orient,- is interpreted by United States Sehatof Josiah W.''Baliey in a press release made to North Carolina newspapers today. Mr. Bailey states that the po­ licy appears to be as follows: 1. It is our purpose to render full aid to Great Britain and other countries allied with her in resisting the aggressions of the totalitarian powers. 2. The limitations upon this aid are:— (a) The preservation of our own security. (b) A hope that we may es­ cape involvement as an actual belligerent. (c) We do not intend to send our soldiers to fight In any Old World country. 3. In order that we may ren­ der aid promptly and intelligent­ ly to Great Britain, we are about to give the President extraordi­ nary powers, since matters of this sort cannot be handled as promptly as Is necessary by the Congress. It is not Intended that those powers shall be per­ manent, but shall expire when­ ever the necessity for them passes. The President lias de­ clared that he does not intend to have our ships used for pur­ poses of convoy of ships to Great Britain or ports of other belli­ gerents and that he does not Intend to transfer to Great Brit­ ain, or any other country, nny Important part of our Navy. He has repeatedly said that this Would Arm Ships O U R C O M P L IM E N T S T O STERGHI BROS.

Limitations in line with the fore­ going are likely to be enacted. It is Important to this country that the British Empire and Commonwealth of Nations shall not be overwhelmed, and it is Important that the British Navy shall not pass into the hands of any other nation. In the final analysis, come what may, we may reasonably hope to prevent by this course the control of the seas passing to the powers that would isolate this country in event they should get such con­ trol, and which countries cannot be trusted not to attack us if they should conceive it to be to their Interest so to do. In other words, if control of the seas’ can be preserved as^iTTHe present hands which control it, tliat is the British and the United States fleets, we will be rela­ tively safe in any event. SUSTAINS POLICY Since there are many inquiries as to my position, I am issuing this statement in order that all may know that I am sustaining the policy of our Government as above outlined. I deplore the cost, the risk and the sacrifices iniailed,. -hiit_Jivey_seem_to- mej to be necessary to the security and welfare of the people of the United States. Having stated my opinion, let me add that I shall be utterly tolerant of those who differ with me and give appropriate consi­ deration to their representations.

Brown, Extension poul­ try specialist of N. C. State Col­ lege, says the greatest need in the North Carolina poultry hi- dustry Is to Improve the quality of poultry products offered on the market. "Local distributors of poultry products are always glad to handle our local products if we will furnish them quality eggs and meat In sufficient quan­ tity and steadily,” he says. As a slx-polnt prograin for ^rodwing qualUy pniiltry, ni'uwn lists: (1) Keep only purebred poultry and secure the chicks or stock from a dependable breeder; (2) avoid overcrowding — allow baby chicks at least one square foot of floor space for each two-chlcksrexcluslve—of—space occupied by the brooder; (3) provide plenty of ventilation without floor drafts; (4) use a high quality feed and feed liber­ ally; (5) provide ample feed and watering equipment; and (8) clean and disinfect the house and equipment thoroughly be­ fore the chicks are started, and keep the house and yards clean. Three marketing hints are also given by the State College sps- clallst: (1) Destroy thin, light, and diseased birds, never offer thehi on the market and market has been reached not suddenly, but after prolonged considera­ tion.

OVB COMPLIMENTS TO DR. J. S. FORBES, OPTOMETRIST (By Mickey Brown) Cfiir'eyearlikiB other-paftroT our bodies, needs occasional at­tention. Yet, it is easy to lec* ognize the fact that our eyes, so vastly more important than most parts of our bodies, are not per­petual in their functions. Science of the eyes has dis­closed the necessity of glasses to correct poor vision. To fail your eyes In this most essential need, may lead to grave consequences and cause Irreparable damage. To picture the untold grief and sorrow, caused by the loss of sight. Is a most unpleasant thought. Yet, the dire realiza­tion of such a tragedy may bring happiness to thousands of people by correcting poor vision with proper glasses prescribed by a reliable optometrist.Doctor J. S. FORBES, whose offices are located in the Han- ford Building. In Salisbury. North__________nttJ__________________Carolina, phone 860, has effi­ciently and satisfactorially serv­ed the people ot this section with the finest of lens.

OVR COMPLIMENTS TO STANBACK COMPANY (By Mickey Brown)Pew people stop to consider how Important the growth and expansion of their home com­munity is to their every-day life. Unless a community is alive and ready to take advantage of every opportunity to expand, It will soon wither and die. With It will go the opportunity of a life time for many of Its residents who were dependhig upon Its growth and expansion for their family’s success in life.The growth and expansion of this scction is placed upon the slioulders of concerns, such as the STANBACK COMPANY, lo­cated at 1500 South Main Street, In Salisbury, North Carolina, phone 1983. They readily accept this responsibility and have done more than their share in making this a better and more prosper­ous place In which to live.Their product “STANBACK” is widely known for its effective­ ness In relieving simple head­aches caused from stomach dis­orders, muscular aches and pains It Is economical to use as each ten cent package contains two Stanback Powders and the large economical twenty - five cent package contains six Stanback Powders. The results obtainable from Stariback Is second to none and their quality is without peer for excellence. This concern is a tribute to its home community and a commercial monument for future generations to admire.In making this Special Busi­ness Stimulating Issue, the writ­er wishes to compliment them upon accepting such a great responsibility as well as upon their achievements to its end. and suggests that you try Stan­back when you are suffering from simple headaches or have minor muscular aches or pains and you will also snap back with Stanback.

There is no case for peace negotia­ tions, however, with Hitler or his Fascist clique. That’s because Hitler believes in opportunism and not in morality. That’s because the Hitler philosophy is to argue that the end justifies the means and that a word or pledge given yesterday can be erased tomorrow through expediency and self-interest. The case for peace now rests on the broad civilized foundation of common sense and sound reason. It as­ sumes that sooner or later there must be an end to the war and a just peace established. It assumes, moreover, that a mere military decision does not mean a lasting peace. History has already recorded the -sad truth that the only enduring peace must be a “peace without victory.” This writer would like to make a different kind of suggestion, namely, that the particulars about boundaries and territories be side-tracked for the present and that we establish what might be called the principles of a peace movemnt. These are: First, the British Gtovernment should announce form­ ally and the United States should formally concur in the statement that there can be no peace or peace negotiations in the world as long as the present rulers of Germany re­ main in power. Second, that the United States Government will ac­ cept the position of trustee and preside over the delibera­ tions of each of a series of councils that must be set up to determine the ultimate ownership or sovereignty of the territories and colonies wrested from Germany at Ver­ sailles and the territories since wrested from Norway, Den­ mark, Holland, Belgium, Poland, Czechoslovakia and Piaiicci b,y tliü NuiLs. Third, the United States should announce that it will offer constructive aid of a financial and economic char­ acter to rebuild Europe and world trade. Fourth, that the United States act in a similar capa­ city as trustee in the Far East where the Japanese-Chinese conflict must be resolved. Fifth, peoples everywhere must be released from bond­ age and given freedom of worship, freedom of speech, and freedom of information, and a government derived from the consent of the governed. These principles can be supplemented by evidences of good faith and reassurance to the people of Germany. When the people of Central Europe have something better to turn to than Hitler and Hitlerism they will overthrow their dictators, and this will be equally true in Italy. What we need is to reach into each other’s hearts and minds . . . We have here in America millions of Ger­ man human beings. We know their worth and their sense oi justice. Over in Europe are men and women just like them if we would only seek to reach them with kindliness instead of hate, with proposals that will win their trust instead of their distrust, with programs that seem to give them a chance for life in a distracted economic world Let us start all over again in the simple ways that peace comes to us in our homes, in our neighborhoods, in our own national sphere— by proving our readiness to be fair and by being willing— even at great sacrifice— to answer in the affirmative the age-old crv, “Am I my bro­ ther’s keeper?”— DAVID LAW RENCE in the United States News. VIEWS HEARD BY PROMINENT CITIZEN ON LEND-LEASE BILL Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh emphatically denounced the Britisii aid bill as a “major step” toward involvement in a war which America couid not hope to win and asserted that if the United States minds its own business, and arms itself reason­ ably, it is not in any danger. Repeatedly, in answer to ques­ tions put by members ot the house foreign affairs committee he said that the combined forces of botii Great Britain and the United States could not suc­ cessfully invade the continent of Europe, unless there sliould be an internal German collapse. Success, he said, would be de­ pendent upon "a coincidence of miracles.” The famous flyer, appearing at the request of opponents of the bill, urged an immediate nego­ tiated peace. Even though it would not bo a just one, accord­ ing to American standards, he said, it was war which would brlnsi disaster to Europe. He wanted neither side to win, he said, for a victory for either would be “disastrous” to all. Questioned by Representative Eaton, Republican of New Jersey as to his reasons for opposing the bill, he said: “First because I believe it step away from democracy and •second, because it’s one more step closer to war and I don know how many more we can take, short of war." Blames tl. S. For War Once he asserted that if it had not been for the attitude of the United States, the war would «ever have been declared, and France would not be wfiere she is today. For America’s defense against any invasion from overaeas, he advocated a force of 1*,0M up- THE NOT SO WONDERFUL "LAND OF OZ" United States by powers Is assured. Letter From Daladler As his testimony ended, Bul­ litt picked up the leather brief case from which he had drawn Innumerable papers — including a letter from former Premier of Prance Daladler to President Roosevelt — arose, faced the committee and declared solemn­ ly: “I feel this is a terrible, ter­ rible urgency. I feel that the sklnnnr has set the r.niir.sp nf niir totalitarian I MORE ABOUT British mand alone has studied 120 dis­ tinct “problems” of invasion in "defending” an area against every tactic and type of force, from parachute troops to amphi­ bious tanks. AIR FORCES ON ALERT The R. A. F., whose task is to preserve the sky frontiers, has been equipped with hundreds of new planes and expects a heavy Influx of mnrp bomber.s and In- to-the-nilnute fighting planes, saying that number should be sufficient. The United States has 5,000 to 6,000 planes now, he continued in response to ques­ tions, but most of them are ob­ solete. He placed the number of modern fighting planes avail­ able at “a few hundred.” Except for these, he said, America’s recent production iiad been sent abroad, instead of being retained here. Hugh S. Johnson, the news­ paper columnist, followed him to the witness stand, and said that the bill amounted to “a defensive and offensive aUiance with Great Britain.” in which any war alms the United States might have would be entirely In tlie control of the British gov­ ernment. Amcrica Is Safe America was safe behind its oceans, he said, and he didn’t see how “anyone could turn up his nose at 3,000 miles,” when “Mr. Hitler is having .ад much trouble with 25 or 30 miles.” “If we’re not careful, we’re going to be in this war in 30 to 90 days—possibly on the north coast of Africa or the west coast,' said Johnson, retired brigadier general and former NRA admin­ istrator. BULLITT Declaring that the United States is faced with a “terrible, terrible urgency,” William C. Bullitt told the house foreign affairs committee that if this country stepped up its produc­ tion of military equipment to war-time levels Great Britain could defeat Germany. But if Britain falls, the tan­ ned, baldish former ambassador to Prance said, invasion of the weatern hemisphere is “almoit certain” and encirclement of the ship. All of you gentlemen are officers and those of us who are out of office are the crew—and the cargo Is America.” MRS. HARRIMAN Mrs. Daisy Harriman, minister to Norway, told the committee that modern Invention was eli­ minating space “and an ocean is no longer a barrier, especially if controlled by a hostile power.' Urging speedy enactment oi the bill, she said “freedom of action and mobility are crucial” In the determination of where the na­ tion’s defense materials can best be Uised. GREEN President William Green said the American Federation of Lab­ or favored the “basic principles” of the legislation, but would like to see a two-year limit on the grant of powers to the President, and also assurances of protection of labor’s rights In any grant of power to commander produc­ tion. GIBSON Ex-Senator Ernest W. Gibson of Vermont, asserted hi a state­ ment put into the record that “qualified observers” believed Hitler "could take Brazil by telephone” if the British fleet were destroyed. Speaking as chairman of the Committee" to Defend America by Aiding the Allies, Gibson said Germany “could and would” Invade the western hemisphere it Britain were defeated. Bullitt, covering almost every aspect of the European conflict in his lengthy testimony, told the committee in response to questions that: The British, who had an “un­ believably small number of guns” left after the evacuation of France, could break the morale of the German people by bomb­ ings if the United States gave them enough planes. Similar to France The state of the public mind in the United States now of­ fered an “extraordinary like­ ness” to that ot Prance before the German invasion — and France started preparing too late. He had “absolute knowledge” that the French believed they had so placed their fleet in ports and had so instructed their men to sink them if it became nec­ essary, that none of the ships would fall into German or Italian hands. President Roosevelt would "rather give away his two eyes than give away the navy.” Invasion of the western hemis­ phere is “almost certain” to come through an. attack in South America, with Japan seizing control of the Pacific, if Britain is beaten and her fleet is lost. A report that he encouraged France to enter the war by indi­ cating that It could count on American armed support was, “invented, as we all know, by the German propaganda machine.” terceptor fighters from the United States in the spring. British pilots are as good as can be found and their ground crews and facilities are held ade­ quate for the present emergen­ cies. Leaders of the R. A. F. have exhibited courage, ambition, and boldness of Imagination. The army’s plan Is to “shoot ’em on the beaches” when the Germans attempt their landings. But some military authorities concede that out of several tries, the Nazis are likely to establish one good bridgehead, into which they would pour every resource In men and materials. It then would be up to the navy to cut off such seaborne supplies, even if this means the sacrifice of several battleships. FLEET REDOUBLES WATCH Fortified by the new 35,000- ton battleship. King George V and several other new and pow­ erful units, the home fleet has redoubled its watch on the North sea and the channel and from cabin boy to admirals the boast is: “They may land but they won’t get supplies.” To cut off any possible bases established, the navy will risk not^hly"smairahd large destroy­ ers and cruisers against torpe­ does of submarines and “E" boats and bombs of the luttwaffe, but the battlefleet that represents Britain’s rule of the seas. Most neutral military sources agree that Germany, even with the necessity of retaining strong garrisons in the occupied ter­ ritories, can launch an assault with a manpower advantage of about 3 to 2. This army, which it is believed will not be deterred by losses however severe, will be supported aloft by an air force estimated at “not less than 17,500 aircraft.” To the advantage in men and planes, nearly all military ob­ servers add another important factor—initiative and planning. It is deemed certain that inva­ sion plans will be worked out to the smallest details as in Poland, Norway, Denmark, the Lowlands, and France. For such tactics as parachute troops, landing of fifth column­ ists in civilian clothes to destroy communication.c ancl spread false information, and all the other devices made familiar on the continent last spring, Britain’s civilian services are being pre­ pared. Police wardens are being re­ instructed in safeguards against parachutists, spies and gas war­ fare and the ordinary citizen seems ready to fight with bare hands if necessary.

Question: ’AThat grazing crops rp QiiUnhlfl fnr Bend schools will continue to operate as usual, the superin­ tendent said, as very few cases of the disease have been report­ ed In those districts.

Farm Questions Are Answered Question; What materials are best for treating cotton seed? Answer: The best material for treating cotton seed to control damping off and for the im­ provement of stands are 2 per­ cent-and-5_percent_ethyJ__mer^ cury chloride dust. This material can be purchased at seed, hard­ ware, or drug stores under the name of Ceresan. The price of the dust ranges from 50 to 70 cents per pound. It is used at the rate of 3 ounces ot 2 per­ cent Ceresan per bushel of seed, or 1^ ounces of 5 percent dust per bushel of seed. Hence, the cost wUl range from 9 to 14 cents per bushel for 2 percent Ceresan, ^ d from 5 to 8 cents-per bushel for 5 percent Ceresan. vwwwwwwwwwwwvwwwwwwwwwswvwwwwwvw Whatever Your...

Answer: If the disease Is In the vicinity, it is best to start fumigation with paradichloro- benzene immediately. However, If careful daUy inspections of seedlings are made to insure finding the first signs of the disease, fumigation need not be­ gin until the disease Is actuaUy present. Care should be exer­ cised in avoiding even one night’s delay since plants cannot be re­ vived by the treatment. If the spray treatment Is used, it must be started before a general out­ break of the disease Is to occur. The spray is only effective as a To Puerto Rico The senate committee on ter­ ritories and insular affairs un­ animously approved the nomina­ tion . of former Representative Guy J. Swope, of Pennsylvania, as governor of Puerto Rico. He succeeds Admiral Leahy, present V. S. ambassador to the Vichy government in France. Answer; The best summer grazing crops for hogs are les­ pedeza, soybeans, and red clover As soon as the danger of frost is over, plant soybeans thick in the drill, in TOWS 20 Inches apart, and cultivate them twice to keep down grass and weeds. Toklo or Biloxi soybeans are best for this purpose. Rape is also a good temporary grazing crop for swine, but requires fertile land and should be planted In rows. StUl, soybeans probably furnish the best grazing for the Investment. PLANTING IRISH POTATOES To control scab and various other diseases I always treat my Irish potato seed before plant­ ing. I use New Improved Seme- san Bel at the rate of 1 ounce for 5 bushels of seed. This ma- ïerlal can irë”ôl>tâlnëa“ff6m seed stores and directions for using arc on package. In cutting Irish potatoes for planting, I want a good blocky piece, say H i to 2 bühces. This is far better than trying to eco­ nomize and cutting into smaU pieces. Tests show that these larger pieces wUl produce from IVx to 3 times as much as where quHe small pieces are planted. A good Plan la to cut Irish potato seed 10 days to 2 weeks before planting. This Is especiaUy im­ portant when planting early. After cutting, put in baskets, crates, or barrels, and place in a close room, where the tempera­ ture is around S6 to 65 degrees. This enables the potatoes to form a cork-like substance over the cut spaces which means that they are far less likely to rot if It turns off wet and cold after they are planted. BARGAINS!

The most Important thing that is happening In the world today is taking place within the heads of the people. All of the bomb­ ings and battles, all of the sink­ ings of ships and slaying of lives, have ferment. We are all tary- ing, more the new Ideas that are being born In the minds of all -the world. Here the real revolu­ tion Is under way, a genuine ^new world order" Is being born. 9 For the tragic and terrible ' events of recent times have forc­ ed men and women to confront anew the motives and Jorms and ^objectives of Ufé. Standards are changing. A deep seriousness is coming over the mood of my­ riads. It is not easy to remain trlvlal-mlnded and thlng-mlnd- ed, in a day "When all old values are -being challenged: and an entire civilization Is being turn­ ed to the usages of war. When­ ever thoughtful persons gather, the talk turns to the possible “shape of things to come.” What kind of a new world are we build- I— ing,-or—pr-0-par-lr.s—to-bullu? No economic or social theories are too fantastic to come under seri­ ous discussion today. Man’s mind is in an increas­ ing ferment.

It Is not too much to say that the world is be­ coming spiritually minded. Peo­ ple are thinking and talking about Ood; and about His rela­ tionship to the horror-filled events of these days. Honest souls see nations being punished for their sins; and for their ig­ noring of the clear will of the Almighty. Frivolity—and Tragedy “Light mlnedness," is a label that may fairly be affixed to our generation. We have heed­ lessly drifted Into a state of self- indulgence; Our grave respon­ sibilities toward our own best selves, toward our fellow men, and towards God, have been subordinated to the momentary desire for self-gratification. We have pursued pleasure at the sacrifice of conscience. Our stan­ dards of taste and conduct have slumped — until frivolity has found Itself In the black pit of war.

FARSIING AS A BUSINESS __^Is_y.aur_faunlug_huslnessJarge enough to keep you and mem­ bers of your family employed at productive work throughout the year? It is not necessarily how many acres you operate that counts but rather how much you produce for sale. Obviously, 10 acres of cotton or tobacco repre­ sents a larger output of labor and materials than 10 acres of wheat. Similarly, 25 dairy cows mean a larger livestock business than 25 steers, sheep, or hogs. Farm records show that few farmers obtain a satisfactory In­ come who do not— — IT-Operate at least 40 acres of crop land, including hay and rotation pasture; 2. Spend 300 or more days of manlabor on crops or livestock to be sold; 3. Sell $l,000-worth- of- farm products each year (or an a- mount equal to at least 20 per cent of the Investment in farm real estate, livestock, and equip­ ment). -0uth «Britain Can’t Pay” Secretary of the Treasury Henry MorKcntliau. Jr., tells the House Foreign Affairs Commit­ tee in Washington that the Brit­ ish “just haven’t got” dollars enough to buy the war equip ment they must get from the U. S. He said they could pay for goods alrea:ly ordered but would not be able to pay for “any­ thing like what they need.” News Briefs WASHINGTON — The Senate has passed unanimously and sent to the White House legislation authorizing a $300,000,000 expen­ diture for modernizing the fleet’s air defense. The chamber acted within an hour after tiie Senate naval committee had approved the legislation.

Out Of It All Out ot all this serious think­ ing, after It has gone further, and paid a heavier price, will emerge the common purpose that will dominate the life ot the long tomorrow. A sobered race is niaklng up its mind to get rid Ibrever of the horror of war. It sees far enough Into reality to resolve to do way with the mo­ tives that create war: the greed of many men; the prideful, con­ scienceless imperialism of politi­ cians and ruling classes; the dan­ gerous cult ot militarism; the narrow nationalism of selfish peoples; the injustices of unbro- therly classism; and the emo­ tional and Intellectual instability of the masses. Meanwhile, common sense tells us that we must break the pagan power of tiic totalitarian nations, and free their own people, as well as the millions they have enslaved; so that there may be a fresh and fair start toward an era of co-operation and good will. He is a poor friend of peace who would arrest the pend­ ing conflict, leaving the present powerful and vengeful forces un­ punished, to resume it whenever it becomes to their advantage to do so.^ But the war issue is only one ot many at stake In this con­ temporary world revolution of htunan thtnkinK. Our whole man- spread secularization ot the Lord’s Day; the growth ot the gambling spirit; the present use ot intoxicants; the popularity of filthy literature— these all are getting Increased public atten­ tion. It Is clear to even a person with half a mind that the brave new world we covet can only come to pass as we have brave new men and women, them­ selves characterized by the qual­ ities which we seek in a remade society. Public morale Is de­ pendent upon private morals. In this time of sincere heart-search­ ing we are called to consider anew the effect ot strong drink upon the character of the na­ tion. John Barleycorn’s Anxious Friends Today’s Pennsylvania news­ papers carry a significant story. A committee of friends ot John Barleycorn, originally organized to promote repeal of prohibition, is out with a statement advocat­ ing the closing of more than six thousand of the state’s liquor shops. They see what promiscu­ ous drinking Is doing to the younger generation, and to so­ ciety as a whole. They fear an arousal of public sentiment that may bring back prohibition.

Proctor, state chairman of the planning board. “The first group comprises high school pupils and the sec- ..oDd. group-young-peoplo-who-are out of school. The program is planned not only for the purpose of giving young people an op­ portunity to earn something, but aUo for the purpose of giving them some defhilte vocational training. Young people In school are assigned, whenever possible, to work that appeals to their sttM. ‘‘In Davie county high schools there are 34 youths at work at confined to his bed with rheu- various types of jobs. They as­ sist wltii cafeteria work, they render service in the principals’ offices, they act as assistant librarians, they help with ar­ ranging and taking care of In­ structional and laboratory sup­ plies, and they do minor re­ pairs in connection with fuml- tsre and Instructional equip­ ment. “The groups outside of school follow three projects; The first is a Home Training Center Pro­ ject located at Mocksville. This is for girls. The second Is a building and repair project com­ prised of twenty or thirty boys who are doing a great many things In the way of repairs to school buildings, to building very small structures such as agricul­ ture shops at Mocksville and Ad- vmnce, and the Improvement of sehool grounds. These boys get practical experience and training ■ ia carpciHiT;— yaluuiig;— giSine brick work and plastering, roof wotk, and the making of school furniture.

In so far as the School Work Program Is concerned there Is “For the past two years prac­ tically all repairs to school build­ ings have been done by a group of NYA boys. The saving to the county represents quite a bit of money, and the training the boys have received may make It possible for them to secure work In private employment. Some of the boys have already secured such work, and others will be ready by the end of the school state Planning Board made up of school people entirely. This Board meets from time to time for the purpose of checking re­ ports of progress being made in the schools, and for making sug­ gestions for new and worthwhile projects: ^Supefintendent doc­ tor was appointed last summer State Chairman of the Planning Board.
