THURSDAY, February 15 'Read Matthew VII:7-11) '*l' Htui Ye Shall Receive" " Grvl of Jesus is a God of law. <ovp| of law is universal, ••Mending over the rt alm of matter anti also over the realm of souls. The unchangeabl eness of law is supposed by some to put an end to prayer; but it only places it on’ a surer foundation. We know now there is no whim or cap rice. When God built the universe •He left it in a place for request and reply. In the mod ern home conversa tion still goes on as of old. Jesus speaks with all the posi tiveness and assur- ance of a scientist, “Ask and ye shall receive. No matter who you are you cannot ask without receiving. The principle of gravitation is operative everywhere and always and so is the law of prayer. “Seek and ye shall find.” There are no ifs and buts. There is no perhaps. The cosmos is built on the idea that every seeker is sure to find. "Knock and it shall be opened unto you." There are no doors which refuse to swing on their hinges when an earnest soul knocks. Prayer; O Thou ruler of the uni verse, we rejoice in the assurance that Thou art a God of law and that we can depend on Thee today and to morrow and forevermore. Deliver us Iruin our fears and doubts and help to give Ourselves up le Ti.te Cviii ’ i tciy, now ana always. Amen. A TFJ.EPIioN Hi YARDSTICK.

Judge Clayton Moore on the pe tition of/the town of .Henderson that thfe receivership* of Che Henderson properties of the Carolina Telephone aiycl’j?fljegrj*.pb Company be made per manent. H«nders#n, which was re cently left for a day without any tele phone , facilities as a result of the re fusal .<jf ttiQ company to agree to a rene*wa.Y of its franchise at terms favorable to the town and less to itself, is now seeking tdnderrination of the company’s pro. perties in order to operate its own telephone exchange. President Roosevelt has taught ths American people the virtue of the yardstick of public operation in judg ing the rates of private utilities. Such a yardstick in the telephone business is badly needed in North Carolina. The telephone business in the State, as well as in the nation, is a virtual monopoly, and there is wide feeling that this monopoly charges high and monopolistic rates. Not only Henderson, therefore, has much at stake in the Windsor hem- Ing. North Carolinians in general will wish Henderson success in the crea tion of a yardstick, another standard than the monopoly’s by which to judge the monopoly’s rates. ■IH JBl ft iiAIM *aswell]* New York. Feb. 15 Manhattan Potpourri. I hear a lot of talk these days, in dignant talk some of it, about the radio studios inviting audiences to attend broadcasts and thus robbing the legitimate theatre of cash custom ers. . . One network has even rented the Hudson theatre to stage its tu mults and tickets are mailed to like ly visitors gratis . . . Well, I went to one of these performances, and I don’t think the legitimate theatre is going to suffer from competition with that sort of exhibition . . . There are two excellent reasons why . . . One is the old, overwhelm ing psychological quirk which makes folks shun any kind of a show that's free . . . You can sell seats for $6.60, but just try giving the same seats away ... It can’t be done, and it has been tried often . . . The neigh borhood store counters groan with free passes to plays, but out as a promotional scheme, but no one will have them; Meanwhile the trades men of the neighborhood ask me if I have any tickets to shows . . . They want them if they are “press passers,” but not if they are given away to the layman public . . . The other reason is in the quality of the entertainment offered . . . Radio performers are not, with few exceptions, actors —and they flush crimson, stutter and carry on in a depressing manner when exposed to the view of an audience . . . After years of whispery tete-a-tetes which microphones, a studio gabbler can’t turn himself into a footlight mime just like that . . . No, the public may attend the broadcasts to gape at adored crooners, but not for theat rical entertainment . . . BOOK STUFF Most absorbing of the new books, for this reporter, is “The Huor of De cision,” by Oswald Spengler ... It is strong, invigorating stuff after the flood of books about the New Deal — and dealing dollars from the bottom of the deck . . . Although dismissed by many busy readers as impossibly highbrow, Spengler is in fact one of the most lucid of writers. You will, very probably, grow angry with him in the course of your reading, particu larly if your politics are pinkish in their sympathies, but you will never bog in long-winded, meaningless phrases . . . And to dive several million miles from Spengler to Tiffany Thayer, con cocter of pleasant shockers, the wond er bobs up whether writers are born with the stamp of certain letter-com binations upon them . . . The “th” sequence occurs so often in the works of this scribbler, you are sure it is his lucky sign, if lucky sign he has Us * CROSS WORD PUZZLE m1 trr r r Irn ■I o B ■ll ■— l 24 I"” -ixt I | | | ■. .I ACROSS • Indefinite article Hnad of NH,\ * Hegar* ling 11 Legislative assemblir-s 12—A pledge 15— Exnrcss it*—Memorandum I!♦ l* also hood 22—Tit Ip of rpsp?ct ?4- a word >!SPd as a name thing Jfi —O-oans •'loth nioasiira 29—Boverag..

In upholding the right of a wife to search her husband’s trousers a Milwaukee judge failed to state what right a man has when his wife wears the pants. The senate banking committee has discovered that some banks have been, “window dressed.” The chief thing in a bank to keep well dressed is the vault. We never knew what “Frozen Cre dit” meant until we tried to buy a ton of coal on time when the tem perature was below zero. Looks like Gen. Eoin O'Duffy has lost his “blue shirt.” If brevity is the soul of wit, Mayor (Ljl Guardia, of New York, is the fun niest man, in the country. To citizens writing about how he should run the city he replies: “Nuts.” To those prais ing him. he answers “Thanks.” To those who want jobs he dictates “Re grets.” At that, he might save two words and just write “Nerts” to everybody. Despite the depression, many men still seem able to shirk for a living. We need former Senate Geprgc H. Moses back in Washington to point out the “sons of the wild jackass.” The senators look so much alike now even the jackass himself wouldn’t know his own sons.
