Senator Copeland writes: “To make your chin less noticeable, try massaging it with an upward motion.” Nothing like having men in congress who know what to do—Columbus Ledger. Dillinger’s Exit John Dillinger, arch enemy of the law and the order that it symbolizes, died as all his succesors in crime rule—“with his boots on.” There are very few deaths in which the public glories but the demise of John Dillinger at the hands of agents of the departhient of justice meets with public approval generally. We have never been able to understand the type of human bing who sympathizes with gangsters and master criminals who make the headlines in the press of the country. Such a man a', Dillinger may play havoc with officers, s .oot dowm men in cold blood, kill innocent people and bring sor row to dozens of homes; finally he meets his doom in such manner as Dillinger fell and all over the country comes such ex pressions as “he wasn’t given a chance,” and “he was a good guy.” Nothing is said about his innocent victims, nothing is re membered at)Out how much chance he *Ave. People who make heroes out of Dil- lingers are responsible for the existence of the worst criminal element. There are many who would have said, “It w'as good enough for him,” if Dill’nger had killed another officer instead of getting shot down himself. The capture of Machine Gun Kelly, the conviction of A1 Capone, the slaying of Dillinger and other such victories of fed eral agents over master criminals is caus ing public opinion to favor the enlarge ment of the bureau of the department of justice in taking a hand toward running down such criminals. Today the United States government has a miniature army of men to fight crime and we say, why not? In a conflict with another nation the government wll spend billions to gain victory and retain freedom while within our borders there is a wave of crime that is threatening the freedom, to a certain extent, of every citi- zn, and even defenseless women and chil dren. If these sinister forces of satan are not curbed, if law and order does not get and maintain the upper hand, our freedom is as much at stake as it was during the world conflict of 1914-18. It is abominable that the United States, the greatest, richest and most civilized no tion on the globe, should be infested with such a criminal element has has been rampant within its borders for the past decade. The department of justice, with its men selected on the basis of character, ability ; and training (not politics) can do more toward curbing the evils than the gi-eat horde'of enforcement officers of the sub- fffdinate governments. Everything moves in cycles. The trend at the present time is for a housecleaning in practically everything and it certainly isn’t going to hurt. One instance of the iIHwent trend is the great battle for a clean, independent government that is emg waged by Mayor LaGuardia in New ork City. It shows what can be done, thstanding the cynic’s “you can’t do one who comes in daily contact with 3s of people and hears their expres- »ons on government and crime, it would I5)pear that the general public is either ^gusted or has an overdose of pessimism, progr^ of civilization shows clearly rifht always wins out, although the Tti i^Iein of WeSly The yeaiMiXK* of sipricttltursl co!>P^' tiou shows a progresifivalind larjAlghhsd^ spirit wh« it says: “Our age is witne^ ing the extraordinary specta^ of a w^d fleeing from plenty. It is fbr'the co-op^- tive organizations to show that they can face plenty and that their ideal of social justice is a 'light by which they can deal out plenty with an even hand.'so that it neither piles up for want of clafanants nor ceases for lack of reewnpense to those from whose labor it has sprung.’/ / It has often been said that the troubles of the present lie in the fact that the ma chinery of distribution has been inferior to the machinery of production. There is no lack of people who want wheat, cotton, fruit, dairy products and all the other things our farmers raise—and these peo ple constitute a vast market which the progressive co-operatives are trsdng to reach. The co-operatives are not seeking to obtain extortionate prices—they are seeking fair prices that will bring the producer a reasonable profit and allow him to sell the maximum amount to the con sumer. The mere routine of buying and selling is among the least of co-operative activi ties. Co-operatives are great educational institutions, so far as both their members and the public are concerned. They are going forward on firm ground, meeting and grappling with great social and econo mic problems. And they are making headway. Offsetting Summer Decline If present hopes materialize, much of the seasonal decline in general business that always comes with summer, will be offset by stimulated residential construc tion. It is an unquestioned fact that a sizeable part of the public is in dire need of more and better housing, and that every month makes the need greater. Today we can build a home in the nu'i- dle-price bracket for about sixty per c^nt of what a similar home would have cost four or five years ago—and today’s honie will be superior in such matters as utiliza tion of space, labor-saving equipment, and resistance to heat and cold. It is probable that, once the construction industry gets back to somewhere near normal, prices will rise, and the opportunity now offered us may never be offered again in the fu ture.

A MASTER GATHERS PUPILS To all the temptations Jesus answered, “Get thee behind me, Satan,” and He emerged from the wilderness with a clear-cut picture of His mission and His program. He saw very quickly that He could not adopt John’s methods. John was an ascetic, a reformer, a denouncer. Jesus was fond of people, loved social life and liked to be in a crowd. John said, “Flee from the wrath to come.” Jesus said. “God is your Father, and has made the world as a happy place for His children.” The two messages were complemen tary, but, while the friendship of the cousins was firm and their respect for each other deep and true, they were utterly unlike in personality. Each must'speak the truth as he saw it and in his own chosen way. It was an age when philosophers in cities like Athens and religious teachers in Palestine moved about out-of-doors and gathered as they went. It is interesting to remember that the name by which Jesus most liked to be called was “Master,” not a master of servants but a master of pupils, a schoolmaster. And the name He gave to His associates “disciples,” means, simply “pupils-” The story of the way in which He gathered these men is full of interest He seemed to have no .studied method. “As Jesus passed by” He called one and another, saying, “Follow me,” and the man who was called left his fishing, or whatever his work might be, and followed in stantly. The significant thing to remember is His amaz ing faith in plain ordinary folk. He did not look over the Blue Book or the Directory of Direc tories, saying to Himself, “This is the most im portant mission that any one ever undertook; I must have the very best and ablest assistants.” On the contrary, it was almost as though He said, “If I can pick up about a dozen honest chaps who are physically strong enough to stand hard ships and simple enough to let their faith carry them beyond intellectual doubts, I can trust this message of mine to their keeping and feel sure that it will never die out.” That supreme confidence in common humanity sets Jesus apart from most other leaders who have attempted large things, and the magnificent way in which His faith was justified is one of the finest proofs of His divinity. It will be worth while to look briefly at tiiese pupils of His. How many of us know anything at all about them, or could even write a list of their names? The first two of the permanent disciples were John, the son of Zebedee (with whom was afterward associated his brother, James), and Andrew- Andrew was apparently the sort of man who likes to discover good things and tlmn tell them to a brother or to some one else with more initiative than himself.

C., after 10 years of groping in world of shadows, was able to see clearly again today. For the first time in a decade she read a newspaper and was able to make out definitely the faces and clothes of people about her. Told by specialists that there was no hope for improving her rapidly failing eyesight, she had studied Braille, to be pre pared for the total blindness that seemed inevitable. A pair of spectacles, with thick lenses and heavy dark frames, was designed by an oc- culist, and for the present, re stored Miss Bristol’s vision. ‘I want to get back home and take a look at my old friciils,"' she said. "I bet I won’t know them. They must have changed lot since I saw them last.” iThe cott ’.n crop of Chatham county Is reported damaged >r 20 percent due to unfavorable growing vfeather.
