C., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1939 Americanism is an unfailing love of country, loyalty to its institutions and ideals, eagerness to defend it against all enemies, undivided allegiance to the flag, and a desire to se cure the blessings of librty to ourselves and posterity. BIBLE THOUGHT And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry—But God said unto him, thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided. Luke, 12:19-20. WHAT DO YOU KNOW? To hear, my friend, what you may think. I do not care a single wink I’ve heard opinions till I’m sore;; Please do not give me any more. Your syllogisms all are weak; You slip the track whene'er you speak. Too many people “think,” of late, And not enough of them think straight. W’hat do you know? I wait to hear A tale of knowledge ringing clear. If you have anything to say That puts a new light in the day, That makes me feel, because of it, The world’s improved a little bit, Then speak. I hark with eyes aglow, If you will tell me what you know. —Clarence E. Flynn in “Psychology.” ri ~ rinr -i~i IF YOUU SUBSCRIPTION!

Dial 7111 PATRONIZE THOSE WHO ADVERTISE IN THE JOURNAL Judge Refuses To | Enjoin Beer and Soft Drink Drivers HUSTON, Tex**.—The application of the Hires Bottling Company for an injunction to restrain picketing of the company’s plant by Beer and Soft Drink Driver* Local No. 976 was refused by District Judge Allan Hannay. The suit for temporary injunction was filed in the name of employes of the company and L. J. Stringer, said to be president of the Houston branch of the so-called American Associa tion of Independent Labor Unions (company unions). The injunction plea was based on the contention that a bona fide labor dispute does not exist at the Hires Bottling Company, that no workers are on strike, that the union has al ready recognized the independent un ion, and that picketing by local No. 976 is hurting the firm’s business by about 60 per cent. The union brought out in defense testimony, however, evidence to show that the dispute was bona fide. Tes timony was given to show that in the last few months at least seven work ers were discharged by the company for union activity. Following Judge Hannay’s ruling, Business Agent O. R. Denman, of the Beer and Soft Drink Drivers Union said picketing would continue indefi nitely. He expressed hope, however, that a settlement of the dispute can be made in a short time.

Such a salad Is popular with everyone and easy to make If certain simple rules are followed. Choose fruits tor flavor and color contrast. The golden color of the orange, for example, con trasts well with the reds, purples and greens of berries, cherries, grapes and melons. Oroup fruits at tractively on crisp salad greens (and be sure greens are crisp). Vary greens — lettuce, romalne, chicory, watercress, purple cabbage. Use lemon Juice in dressings. Lemon Juice does things for fruit salads. For a further variation serve salad one day as an appetizer, again as an accompaniment or fol low-up for the meat course, or let this dish do double duty as salad and dessert For a luncheon or supper a satisfying main dish is provided by a cheese or nut salad. Serve all of these salads in gen erous portions. The body needs the vitamin and mineral food ele ments they provide. Especially excellent as a salad fruit Is the orange. It offers a Juicy and refreshing base for many decorative and delicious salad combinations with other summer fresh fruits and is used as the base for the salad suggestions that fol low. The California Valencia oranges in market this summer In such abundance are especially good for slicing, since they are firm meated and practically seedless.

He offered a $50 bill in payment for $3.10 worth of gasoline and oil and ordered bis chauffeur to drive off when the attendant said he didn’t have change. “Wait a minute, I can fix this,” the attendant sfid.

Big Truck Turns Over, Field Mouse Is Blamed GREEN BAY, WIS.—Field mice have been known to send elephants into hysterics, but a field mouse was blamed for causing a big motor truck turnover. Clem Schuh, 33, while driving along-the highway near here noticed a mouse scampering about in his car. “Shoo,” said Schuh. But as he looked down to locate the rodent his car ran over the center line and col lided with the truck of Lloyd Pres lawski, 22, causing it to leave the road and turn over. Preslawski escaped injury. So did' the mouse. Short Circuit Caused by Static in Body of Woman FAIRFIELD, CCNN.—For a mo ment, Mrs. Charlotte Rasmussen thought she had been struck by lightning as she operated her switchboard at the local telephone exchange. But a repairman explained it this way: Mrs. Rasmussen had been working at a typewriter during an electrical display preceding a thun derstorm, and stored up so mtich static in her body that when she' returned to the switchboard she caused a short circuit. She felt 90 volts course up her arm and nearly toppled from her chair.

Consilution, must depend after ail upon the sup* port which the readers of the press give to it. We need scarcely moie than mention the fact that the usual daily newspaper, to say noth ing of the magazines, do not feel called upon to espouse the cause of organized labor. Such fair plan as is given this cause by these pub lications is based upon the unan swerable strength of the position of the labor movement But we wish to emphasize the fact, that if there were no great section of the national publication known as the Labor' Press, which gives its first and last loyalty to the workers of the nation, and es pecially to those who are members of the organizations of labor, the other sections of the nation’s pub licity organs would probably pay much more scant attention to the rights of labor. Circulation is the life of any publication. Given readers, any publication is in a position of pow er, in proportion to its friends who show their loyalty to their own cause by their subscriptions to their own press, and by their activity in helping to enlarge its circulation. The rights of labor will always depend, to a great extent, upon the freedom of the labor press. A la bor paper which circulates freely in its own community is an index of the power of labor in that lo cality. It Ji a very definite part of the organization itself, and its functions are so vital that neglect of the labor press is sure to reflect upon the qualities of the labor movement itself.
