BIBLE THOUGHT
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall hum
ble theselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their
wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive
their sin, and will heal their land.”—2 Chronicles 7:14.
MANY THINGS TO BE THANKFUL FOR
With President Roosevelt in the saddle; with ill-will and
animosities caused by the recent campaign dying down; with
patriotism at high ebb; with war profiteers being curbed; with
labor’s co-operation in every effort, as far as the A. F. of L. is con
cerned; with good men of the C. I. O. helping pave the way for
peace in a war that has been verily an ill-wind, but which did have
the effect to wake up a sleeping A. F. of L. and place it at its
highest membership peak; with a congress that will line up with
our President; with a citizenship 100 per cent American (if Dies
can get the leaders of unAmerican activities herded together,
deported or jailed); with preparedness for “evantualitis” going
forward on a 24-hour basis—Thanksgiving Day next Thursday
(that is in N. C.) will give us all something to be thankful for—
even if John Lewis STILL CONTROLS THE C. I. O., and is
vitrolic in his attacks on Pres. Wm. Greene and the A. F. of L.
Late reports from Atlantic City C. I. 0. meeting gives no hope of
peace, even though there is an element in its make-up that desires
peace. As we go to press the A. F. of L. is biding its time as
Lewis raves on.
The “bis parade,” a pre-hiliday erent in Charlotte, when the Ynle
lights are turned on, will feature the opening of the holiday shopping season,
and Charlotte merchants are prepared with adequate stocks of suitable
merchandise.
President Greene at the A. F. of L. Conrention in New Orleans says
he is “deeply skeptical" whether Lewis’ resignation will bring the C. I. O.
and the A. F. of L. any closer together if Mr. Lewis remains as head of the
United Mine Workers.

“Today we doubt if there is a single

Raleigh cigarettes have in a few short
years become one of the leading cigar

Silk Stockings
Boycotted By
Queens Girls
Japanese actions in China, as de
scribed by Dr. Charles Judd, Chinese
medical missionary, have caused
Queens girls to make plans to do what
they can to express their disapproval.
Probably the greatest sacrifice they
will make, according to action taken
at chapel exercises last week
will be to boycott silk hose. Since
silk bought from Japan is a most
necessary part of these hose, the girls
voted to do without buying silk hose
for three months.
While wearing cotton anklets and
cotton stocking^, they will not only
be expressing their attitude toward
Japan but will at the same time be
helping their own section where the
welfare of the cotton farmer is a
matter of much importance.
The students also voted to, as far
as possible, refuse to buy any articles
made in Japan. They will also take
other steps to help the Chinese. The
boarding students will go without des
sert two dinners each week and will
give the cost of these desserts to the
maintenance of Gingling university
in China. Day students and boarding
students will contribute one cent of
every five-cent purchase in the “Y”
store to the cause of Chinese relief.
In addition, letters formally pro
testing Japanest invasion of China
will be written by all students to
President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
A pledge setting forth these plans
11 „ PrePared and placed in Bur
well Hall and students were busy yes
terday signing it.—Charlotte Obser
ver.
(One of the students present when
this action was taken asked what was
“se to boycott the stockings and
still buy the silk underwear, which
was a very sensible suggestion.—Ed.)

We sort of laid off Monday to

ad nd ourselves of a pause the
world took so it could raise a new
crop of soldiers and make enough
bugles to notify them when it’s
time to quit sleeping. Trouble la,
they didn't let us finish that last
war. However, the sooner we train
men the later well have to fight,
as men and guns are the best
peace insurance. Army life’s a lot
