C., under Act of March 3rd. 1878. WORK IS THE MIRACLE ' St. Peter and St. Thomas Aquinas were having a golf game one heaven ly day. St. Peter's first drive was right up to the cop for a hole in one. St. Thomas, brandishing his celestial club, stepped up to the tee and drove a hole in one, too. "All right," said St. Peter, rubbing his hands together, "now let's cut out the miracles and get down to work." We in America had half expected that we would begin to achieve mi raculous victories immediately on en tering the war. We believed that Uncle Sam had a magic wand that he would wave, and lo! our enemies would yell for mercy. We are recognizing at last that we must cut out waiting for miracles and get down to work. Work, after all, is the true miracle. It is the miracle that has made America a great nation, and it is the miracle that will save America. The miracle of work will turn out a bomber an hour. The miracle of work will turn out ships months ahead of schedule. The miracle of work will win the production battle. And we can all join in working miracles, through the miracla ; of work!—The Silver Lining. STAND STEADY! Daniel Webster once was giving one of his stirring and eloquent ad dresses in a large hall on the second floor of an old building. The room was packed with . people, crowded close together . . . many of them standing. As -Webster talked the crowd began to sway in rhythm with his words. There was imminent dan ger that the vibration would cause the building to collapse. Sencing the danger, Webster stepped to the front of the platform, held up his hand and,' in a voice of command, shouted: " Stand steady!" Stand steady! A nation swaying to the rhythm of war-hysteria needs that message today. We need to firmly plant both feet on the good earth and brace ourelves for the days ahead. Stand steady! Bab news, rumors, disappointments, fear will try to topple over our spirits. Against it all, we must stand as firm and steady as a giant oak in a gale. We must root deep in the faith of our fathers . .. faith in God and in each other. Stand steady! As Atlas supports the world upon his shoulders, Ameri ca must stand steady, supporting and upholding the world of freedom, jus tie and goodwill. Stand steady! We mrt fa^e limi tations and sacrifice* ^Mwhigh cour age. We must take them all, not ly ing down, but standing up, in the full stature of our manhood. Stand steady! Let us keep our feet on the ground-of-reality and our heads in thr clouds-of-hope. While we meet, battle with, and subdue the problems of each day, k* us hang on to die ideals of the American Way of Life with a firm reeolve to win the peace as well as the war.

Most fun homemakem have re vived their home-canning sugar car ;iffcate, and have been allotted one loond of sugar for wary four quarts rf finished fruit to be pat up. "This nay not sound like enough to some people," says Mrs. Cornelia C. Mor ris, Extension food conservationist of N. C. State College, "but it will suf fice if care is used." The Extension worker makes the following sugar-saving suggestions to home-canners: If you pack your fruit hot in ita own juice, you will need much less sugar thin if you pack the fruit cold, then cover it Kith sugar-and-water syrup. Re membst-, sugar is not needed in can ning to keep food from spoiling. But it does help the fruit to hold color and flavor. By sweetening the fruit slightly, and then heating it, you can draw out juice from the fruit itself— in many cases make it unnecessary to can any added water. For juicy fruits, usually it's best to separate the riper fruits from those less ripe. Then you can crash the riper fruits, heat them, and ex tract juice from them. Pre-heat the less ripe fruit, which you have set aside, in this juice. Add sugar to sweeten slightly if necessary. Fill the jars. Make sure there is plenty of juice to cover the fruit. Process in a water bath. Certain varieties of peaches and pears may not yield enough of their own juice to make the canning liquid. YouH get more juice from these fruits if you slice them and add a Want Ads! WANTED!—Part of tot in Old Cemetery (Forest Hill Ceme tery). Will pay good price. See T. E. Joyner, Farmville Funeral Home.
