Henry Mor
genthau Sr., just turned 85, has been
an exception. We haven't seen his
customary chat with the reporters
this year, but when and if it is re
corded we may be sure he sees what
he sees and isn't trying to slick
things up. Not that he's a pessimist
br defeatist. I remember meeting
him on Mt. Desert Island, Maine, a
few years ago and was tremendous
ly impressed with his faith, ardor
and fighting spirit.
He knows a lot about wars
and trouble. It was our Civil
war that brought him here from
his native Mannheim, Germany.
His father was a prosperous
cigar manufacturer. Civil war
tariffs put him out of business
and the family cams to this
country when Henry Morgen
thau was nine years oM. He
was a lawyer at 23, turned to
real estate and finance, and bad
his money-making over at 55,
with time, means and mental
equipment to turn to the human
ities, to philanthropy and good
works in general. Now he has
a sou in the cabinet, children,
grandchildren and great-grand
children and the unflagging en
ergies which are the reward of
an abstemious life.
If there's a dark side, he isn't
afraid to look at it. He was back
from Europe in 1933 with the simple
conclusion that the world was head
ing into another war. "There is,
in Europe," he said, "no honest,
moral desire for peace." In 1913,
his friend Woodrow Wilson made
him ambassador to Turkey, which
post he held until 1916. Thereafter, |
he helped pick up the pieces, in
the ruin and chaos of the middle
east. He has been both observing
and studious and unhappily for
easy-going optimists, singularly clear
sighted in his prophetic look ahead.

Ellsworth and Hi* Zouaves
THE name of Ephraim Elmer
Ellsworth is almost forgotten
now but 80 years ago it was on the
lips of millions of Americans. As
the youthful colonel of one of the
most picturesque bodies of soldiery
the United States has ever known,
he was something of a military idol
and a national hero. So when be
was shot down by a Confederate
sympathizer in Alexandria, Vs., on
May 24, 1881, he not only became
the first officer of his rank to lose
his life in defense of the Union, but
his death did much to inflame the
North against the South in the early
days of the Civil war.
Ellsworth was born on April 23,
1837, the son of a poor tailor in the
village of Malta, N. Y. Even in
his youth he showed a fondness for
military life and while he was still
a school boy in Mechanicsville, he
organized and commanded a com
pany which bore the high-sounding
name of "The Black Plumed Rifle
men of Stillwater." He tried to ob
tain an appointment to West Point
but failed through lack of political
influence. So he started west to seek
his fortune.
Eventually he landed in Chicago,
where he was chosen captain of a
national guard company. He outfit
ted them in zouave uniforms, re
named them the Chicago Zouave
Cadets and soon made them one of
the best drilled military units in the
country. After an exhibition tour of
the East in 1860, he returned to
Illinois.
In Springfield he became a stu
dent in the law office of Abraham
Lincoln who had recently been nom
inated for President by the Repub
lican party. Since political cam
paigning seemed more exciting than
studying, young Ellsworth plunged
into it with the greatest enthusiasm
and so won the esteem of Lincoln
that he was invited to accompany
the President-elect to Washington.
Lincoln, when he became Presi
dent, planned to make his young
law student and ex-zouave the head
of the nation's militia system. But
this was blocked by the "profes
sional" soldiers In the war depart
ment and Ellsworth had to content
himself with a commission as sec
bnd lieutenant.
Then Fort Sumter was fired upon
and Lincoln called for 75,000 volun
teers to defend the Union. Ells
worth immediately resigned his
commission and hurried to New
York city to organize the men of the
New York fire department as a vol
unteer regiment. In leas than two
weeks he was back in Washington as
colonel of the Eleventh New York
infantry, known as the "Fire Zou
aves," fully equipped, drilled and
ready to take the field.
On May S4 the "Fire Zouaves"
were a part of a force ordered to
cross the Potomac and occupy parts
of Virginia. Ellsworth's regiment
was sent to Alexandria where their
commander saw a Confederate flag
flying over a hotel, the Marshall
house. He dashed into the hotel,
rushed up to the roof and tore the
Bag down. As he was returning, he
was met in the hallway by J. W.
Jackson, the proprietor, who fired
a bullet through the young colonel's
' heart.'
President Lincoln ordered that
Ellsworth's body be taken to the
White House where it lay in state
in the historic East Room. Later It
was escorted down Pennsylvania
avenue by a detachment of cavalry,
followed by carriages in which rode
the President and members of his
cabinet to the railroad station. There
it was placed In a special train
which bore the young commander
to his burial place in Mechanics
ville, N. Y.
Two days later President Lincoln
wrote a long letter of condolence to
Ellsworth's father and mother. It
is even more noteworthy than the
famous letter to Mrs. Bixby which,
l it has recently been revealed, was
not written by Lincoln at all, but
by his secretary, John Hay. In it,
instead of writing about a soldier
whom he had never seen, Lincoln
I was paying tribute to a man whom
be had known personally as a law
clerk in his office in Springfield and
his companion on the fateful Jour
ney to Washington, and whom he
had grown to love.
King's Fund Aid
To War Victims
Under Auspice* of Ruler,
Task of Providing
Help U Tackled.
LONDON.?A curious British in
stitution, the King's fund?-1940, is
I now advancing through its early
formative stages with cool disre
gard tor the obstacles that lie
ahead. It provides cash benefits
under certain conditions for mem
bers ot the fighting forces, auxiliary
services, merchant seamen and
civilian defense workers. It de
pends entirely on voluntary support,
yet is administered by the govern
ment
The fund is heir to one established
by King George V in the last war.
When the present conflict broke out,
the earlier fund had distributed
?1,500,000 in 75,000 grants. But
where the first plan aided disabled
soldiers, sailors and fliers and their
widows and orphans, the present un
dertaking embraces unknown mil
lions enrolled under scores of em
blems and many who fight the war
from their own doorsteps, says the
New York Times.
Right for the Job.
Sir Adair Hore nursed the orig
inal fund into existence and is tend
ing this one. He is permanent sec
retary of the ministry of pensions
and for more than 30 years has been
identified with public health and
social welfare endeavors. His fears
at this time are not over the sound
ness of the King's fund?1940, for
this unique agency is just the thing
for the job, he feels. He is genuine
ly concerned over the prospect that
money may be tight after the war.
Sources of income may well vanish
in the welter of taxes. ThenI#per
haps even more important, there is
the likelihood of a staggering case
load.
Faced with these questions, Sir
Adair sits in his Westminster office
and ponders. Only about 150 grants
have been made under the new fund,
the expenditure amounting to ?750,
yet cases are coming in at the rate
of 40 a week and the war, to him,
has not really begun. Contributions
to date are around ?15,000.
No appeal has been made, be
cause it is thought the public is.
overburdened with demands for
money, and the fund is allowed to
expand almost automatically.
Help la Various Ways.
Essentially the fund gives "occa
sional help in directions quite out
side the scope of the state scheme
of compensation." Disabled officers
and men may receive grants for
clothing, especially if it will help
them obtain employment; traveling
expenses and equipment?such as
tools?toward the same end; moving
costs for home and family should
the job demand it
Wives, widows and adult depend
ents may get grants for clothing,
moving expenses, special nourish
ment after illness and help in their
search for jobs.
Children and young people can be
recipients of educational grfcnts,
teacher-training courses, university,
professional or commercial courses.
Special provision has been made in
the past (or crippled youngsters and
orphans. The emphasis is always
placed on employment.
The King's fund is not regarded
as a charity, a worthwhile distinc
tion in many instances and one
made because it bears the king's
nam'e.
Inconsistent as it may sound, the
fund is independent and in no way
part of the official machinery of the
ministry or subject to any of its
rules, yet applications for relief un
der the fund must be made to the
ministry and its local officers are
the ones who investigate.
Fountain Pen Was Known
In 1858, Old Papers Show
SCHENECTADY, N. Y. ? Evi
dence has been uncovered that
practical fountain pens were used
as early as 1858, or 26 years before
reference works indicate.
The discovery was made in the
correspondence of Jonathan Pear
son, Union college treasurer in 1188.
Reference books state that the first
practical fountain pen was developed
by Lewis Waterman in 1884 and that
100 were manufactured during the
first year.
However, on June 14, 1858, Pear
son wrote to S. R. Gray of Albany,
according to Kenneth Hayes, pres
| ent librarian at Union college.
The Pearson letter stated:
"After using the fountain pen one
week I have concluded to keep it
and have enclosed three and a half
dollars, the price of same. It comes
much nigher to perfection than I
had supposed such a contrivance
could come; the pen is excellent,
and if the fountain pen does not get
[ out of order it will suit me well."

Immigrant Is No. 1
Army Shoe Repairer
Greek Has Largest Contract
For Mending Brogans.
FORT WORTH. ? This success
story concerns Tom Peters, a Greek
immigrant, who today holds the na
tion's largest contract, nearly $250,
000, for shoe repairing.
Peters, who still has more than
his share of trouble with the Eng
lish language, came to the United
States in 1911. He had little money
and little knowledge of the lan
guage. He came across country and
settled in Waco, Texas. His first
shop spread 9 by 7 feet with two
shine chairs.
Two years later he had saved
enough money to get in "the big
time." He came to Fort Worth and
opened a "seven-chair shine par-,
lor."
Since 1913 he has shined and re
paired shoes here. His business
grew with each season. Then came
America's defense program. Today
Peters' shop repairs more than 1,500
pairs of soldiers' brogans daily.
Ebullient Tom can't account for
his sudden success.
"I am doing a nice little business
here," he said, "and I hear about
army shoe business. I bid here. I
bid there, then I bid another place.
"Now see what I got," he con
tinued pointing to c stack of run
down army shoes covered with the
red dust of three great army camps
and 27 CCC units in the Southwest.
He has "stepped up production"
so that now he gives overnight serv
ice to Camp Barkeley, the 45th divi
sion's new training camp near Abi
lene, Texas. Each morning vans
dump 1,000 pairs of shoes in front
of his repair shop. Each night trucks
pick up the repaired shoes and head
back to Abilene.
Timber's Gone, Village
Fades Into Oblivion
NATALBANY, LA. -r This tiny
town in the heart of the strawberry
country, once rich because of its
unlimited timber lands, soon will be
a thing of the past.
Where once the Methodist church
stood, only the rubble of a founda
tion can be found. The church has
been moved on to Tickfaw, where
it has a chance of survival.
All up and down the streets of
the town, which once echoed to the
tramp of men going to work in the
sawmills, homes are being disman
tled and carted away. Some resi
dents are boarding up their houses
?not even bothering to move them
in their search for employment.
At one time more than 1,000 men
were employed in the sawmills, but
gradually, as the land was cut over,
they moved on. Soon only a skele
ton force operated the ripsaws.
Now even they are gone. The
Natchez, Natalbany and Northeast
ern railroad once hauled the logs
to the mills. But the railroad plans
to remove the tracks.
Many of the residents have moved
to Hammond, center of the straw
berry belt, and others are seeking
a living cultivating the berry that
has' made this section of Louisiana
famous.
Humidity Gage Protects
Bust 4,600 Years Old
BOSTON.?The 4.000-year-old bust
of an eccentric Egyptian prime
minister is pampered with stream
line air conditioning at Boston's Mu
seum of Fine Arts.
Uncovered at Giza in 1929, the
bust of Prince Ankh-Haef is so
fragile it is encased in a special
glass bell from which a humidity
reading is taken by a special hy
grometer attached to the side.
Should humidity reach more than
30 per cent the bust of painted lime
stone saturated with water would
crumble to dust Air set in motion
by moisture charges keeps humid
ity even.
Museum authorities say the piece
is remarkable because tombs usual
ly reveal only full-size figures, with
possibly a few spare heads to re
place the original Faces usually
are conventionalized, but that of
Ankh-Haef is the most realistic por
trait study to come to their atten
tion.

Until today "blondes" of the fac

Bouse Construction
A CORRESPONDENT is planning
to build a small bouse in a sub
urban district. Although he has had
no experience in the work, he wants :
to do it all himself. He asks for a ]
book giving "all details in mixing
cement for the brick facing of the
house, making up the plaster and
applying the same, installation of
plumbing, heating and hot water
systems, drainage system, electric ,
wiring and fixture installation. In <
other words, a book dealing with all
details of house construction." He
also asks whether permits will be |
necessary and where to get them; i
whether licensed men must install
any or all of the work, and whether i
the house must be built by a 11- i
censed contractor.
Answer: No one book covers all '
of this information; many books will i
be needed. In building a house, one
error may be enough to weaken the i
entire structure and to make it all
useless. For this reason I strongly i
recommend that he give up his idea, i
All developed communities require -
the licensing of many of the trades,
and. plans and specifications must <
be approved by a building depart
ment. I greatly appreciate his de
sire for a house, but strongly ad- ,
vise him to put his construction in '
the hands of experienced people.
Bathroom in the Cellar I
Question: I wish to construct a
bathroom in the cellar. The room
will be situated in the center of the i
cellar and is to receive light from ,
one window. I intend using imita- ,
tion tile which comes in sheets.
These would come about 30 inches
from the ceiling. Would it be possi
ble to have the top 30 inches closed !
in by using frosted glass? If the
glass were used, would noises be :
heard through it? Would it be better j
to have a tile or wood floor?
Answer: Two sheets of glass sep
arated by at least one inch of air
space would be better for cutting
down sound transmission. For the
floor use either asphalt tile or ce- 1
ramie tile. Either one of these ma- >
terials can be used on basement
floors. Before going ahead with this
idea make sure that the soil pipe
line to the sewer will be below the
level of the bathroom fixture outlets.
Counter Tops
Question: I have just made cabi- I I
nets for my kitchen, and am puz
zled at what to use for the top of
the drain boards around the sink
and for the counter tops. What do < I
you advise?
Answer: The material that is in '
most general use for work tables
and drain boards is battleship lino- 1
leum. This is cut to size, secured
to the under surface with waterproof
cement, and the edges bound with '
specially formed metal strips that
make the edges waterproof, and also :
protect them against chafing. Ex- i
perienced linoleum layers are famil- ?
iar with the work. If you want to do . I
it yourself, you should be able to ;
get the strips at a well equipped
hardware store, where you can also .
learn of the method of application.
Cement for securing the linoleum j
can be roofing cement, liquefied by !
heating.
Old Brat* Warming-Pan I
Question: Is there some way to I
shine up an old brass warming-pan, i
and then put something on it to |
prevent tarnishing?
Answer: If the brass ia badly I
tarnished, wash with ordinary vine- ]
gar in which salt has been dissolved i
?at much salt as will be taken up. i
Follow by rinsing with clear water I
and then wipe dry. If necessary, i
follow by a good metal polish. After i
polishing, wipe the surface with ben- i
tine, being extremely careful of fire, 1
and then apply a coat of clear lac- i
que?. A plating shop could proba- i
bly do a much better job for you, 1
and at no great cost Inquire at ]
our nearby garage.
Shingles Over Old Roof
Question: What is the cheapest !
and best shingle to use on a roof?
Can it be put right over old shin- 1
gles? Do they come in green?
Answer: Asphalt or wood shingles
are probably the least expensive. I
Either type of shingle can be laid i
over the old shingles; in fact, most
re-roofing jobs are done over old
shingles. Green is a popular color
in all types of roofing materials,
and you should have no difficulty in
getting the shade that you want.
Moths la a Mattress
Question: I have a hair mattress
with moths in it. It was once de
mothed, but the moths came back
after a year. How can we get rid
of them?
Answer: Put the mattress out
doors, preferably on an overcast day
to reduce the fire hazard, and soak
it with naphtha or cleay gasoline.
This will destroy every stage of in
sect life. :
Silverflsh
Question: In the downstairs room
of a very old house the wallpaper
above the baseboard is being eaten
off in some places as far up as the
window til. The damage seems to
be the work of insects, although we
have never seen any. Can you ex
plain?
Answer: That is undoubtedly the
work of silverfiah, which eat starch
and find it in wallpaper paste. I
have written a leaflet on the con
trol of silverfish, a copy of which is 1
being mailed to you. This will sn
eer your question, I am sure.

BROADENING CHRISTIAN
HORIZONS: FETER'S VISION
LESSON TEXT? AcU U:S-1S.
GOLDEN TEXT?Then Peter opened his
mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that
God la no respecter of periona.?Acts 10:34.
"The best argument lor Christian
ity is a Christian" (Henry Drum
mond). Peter presented just such
an argument when, early in the his
tory ol Christianity, there arose a
difference of opinion regarding his
ministry to a Gentile and his family.
The -.tumbling stone of offense be
came a stepping stone to higher
things, leading to the place of broad
er horizons. Peter, instead of ap
pealing to his apostolic authority or
asserting his position, simply relat
ed what God had done. He present
ed the best proof that God had actu
ally been at work; namely, a re
deemed soul.
We may learn irom this lesson
that the way to broadened horizons
and greater usefulness for the
church is by
I. A Vision of God's Plan (w.
WO).
All men are equally precious in
God's sight. God taught Peter very
effectively that, whether Gentile or
lew, the Lord is "not willing that
any should perish, but that all should
come to repentance" (U Pet. 3:9).
When God speaks we do well to
give heed to His message, even
though it cuts across our ideas and
prejudices, as it often does. It is
not our plan that is important; it is
God's plan and purpose. As we
walk in that way we shall have
II. An Experience of God's Power
(w. 11-15).
The Holy Spirit had fallen on the
Gentiles and they actually had been
saved. Is it not singular that in the
early church they could hardly be
lieve that a Gentile could be saved?
Now we are astonished if a Jew is
saved! Why will we in our unbelief
limit the Holy One of Israel?
The all-powerful gospel of the
grace of God is still saving men and
women, Jews and Gentiles, from
their sins. Have you seen it hap
pen? It is a great inspiration to
faith and service. God is ready so
to encourage us?He is the same to
day as He was when He sent Peter
to Cornelius. Are we willing to run
His errands, proclaim His message?
ro do so we need
a
ID. An Appreciation of God's
Word (v. IS).
The best way to leam the mean
ing of Gbd's Word is to use it, live it,
a bey it. "If any man will do his
will, he shall know of the doctrine,
whether it be of God" (John 7:17).
Peter had learned anew that God's
Word meant just what it said. We
who are God's servants should be
lieve His Word and act on it in faith.
Observe that Cornelius had gath
ered a group in his household to hear
the Word of God (Acts 10:27, 33).
Could we not do the sameT "Can
not each calculate with exactness
wme time and place where the gos
pel is to be preached, and is it not
possible to bring thither one's rela
tives and friends? Secondly, when
present in a place of worship, can
not each be prepared to say, 'We are
til here present'?all, family and
friends, mind as well as body; 'in
the sight of God'?not to be seen by
others, not conscious so much of
others as of the presence of God; 'to
near all things'?not to be amused
or to sleep; 'that have been com
manded thee of the Lord'?not to
listen to human conjecture or the ex
ploiting of doubts, but to receive ?
positive message which is delivered
in a reverent spirit and with the
prophetic formula: Thus saith the
Lord.' What would happen were all
Christian churches filled with such
audiences?" (Charles R. Erdman).
This brings us to what is most im
portant of all in broadening our
spiritual horizons.
IV. An Understanding of God's
Leve (w. 17, 18).
God's love is for all people. Since
He has not raised any barriers of
race, creed, color, class, or social
position, it is not for His followers,
and assuredly not for His servants,
to set up hindering restrictions
which He does not countenance. If
God intended to save Gentiles, Peter
wanted to be an instrument in His
hand, not a hindrance in His way.
One of the needs of our day is that
those doing God's work should not
withstand Him and His love. He
who is the same yesterday, today,
and forever, is ready to work as
powerfully today as He did in the
days of Peter and Paul, or of Finney
and Moody. Let us give Him liberty
to work in and through us, not as we
may wish, but as He desires. Who
are we that we should withstand
God?
Goal of Life
Oh, yet we trust that, somehow.
Good will be the final goal of ill,
That nothing walks with aimless
feet,
That not one life shall be destroyed.
Or cast as rubbish to the void.
When God has made the pile com
