healing ointment to me. But, cat
astrophic was In the offing. The
'ore throat I had was going to
proye a mere speck In compan
ion' to what I was getting. -When
I got homo that night I had one of
the most glorious sun tans' from
my neck to my waist 1 had ever
had. Some people call It a sun tan
but I have another name -for it.
I forgot the sore throat and the
house and went to work and at
last after a lot of grease and oils
got over It. In the meantime the
sore throat disappeared and again
I thought I was a fine specimen
of manhood able to do anything
Johnnie Mosley Bowden and his
cohorts were able to do, but not
without at least two shirts.
Again I went back to the lot
and started off again to work. We
needed some cement blocks and I
took a truck and went to Warsaw
for them. I Jumped in and helped
load and unload them and I am
sick again. I strained myself and
I am again a small man.
My ambitions to become a car
penter and a carpenter's helper
are blasted. The visions of saving
a lot of money by doing a lot of
the work on our new home is blast
ed. The best thing I can do, I now
realize, is to get me a large um
brella and seat myself under it
out of the way of the carpenters
and see the good work go on. When
I say the umbrella I mean under
the umbrella. We dont have any
shade trees and I have found out
I can not stand - the sun or the
work. "!;-iv - ; .

Let this be a warning to Mosley
Carr.and John Dick I have seen
John Dick come to his lot and work
about five minutes at a time several
times but he had better beware.
Next week I hop to have some
thing for the column that will
prove of interest but for this week
all I can think about Is my woes.

General Weather
And Crop Summary
A shift to more favorable weath
er conditions throughout most of
the State developed during the
week ending July 22, although
damage to crops in local areas had
occurred due to excessive rain and
wet soils, crop prospects were gen
erally favorable.
In tobacco producing counties
delays in "barning operations"
were experienced due to "second-
growth" of plants; however, by the
end of the week the expected be
gan to show - ripening of leaves
was going to be rapid.
Cotton producers, after getting
off to a good start in checking the
boll weevil by dusting, etc., had
been seriously hampered by rains.
However, during the past week
heavy applications of poisons had
been made to many cotton fields
in an effort to halt the gains of
the weevil.
Subscribed to solely by Americans
this is known as the "get up a gang
and whip 'em before dark" school.
This theory of assembling an ar
my had it beginning in the early
days of our republic and was put
into practice in North Carolina
during the Revolution when people
in the vicinity of Kings Mountain
arose soon one morning and "got
up a gang" that whipped the pants
off a bunch of British mercenaries
who had strayed too" far south. Tar
heed born General Andrew Jack
son "got up a gang" of irregulars
in New Orleans and roughed up
another generation of Redcoats. .
So it has been all through our
country's history never have
we kept a large standing army but
we "got up a gang" When we need
ed it. This same process of mobili
zation was carried out in a more
formal fashion during both world
wars under the name of Selective
Service.
Because of the rapid advance
of technological warfare we must
now be able to "get up a gang" of
trained men should the need arise.
This is where the Organized Re
serve Corps fits into the picture.
It serves not only as a training
program but affords comradeship
for the young men of our nation
who are concerned about their
country's security. Thanks to the
ORC we shall be able to "get up a
gang" of ready trained civilians if
the need arises.

An American Way
The American philosophy of mil
itary might has always been a sort
of mystery to the rest of the world.
Europeans and Asiatics in particu
lar have never quite understood
our unwillingness to keep a large
standing army. To their thinking,
a nation's army should grow in
proportion to its size and wealth.
An inconspicuous show of military
strength is a sign of weakness to
them.
Unique among our ideas on mili
tary matters is that of mobilization.
