MERCHANTS TAKING CRISIS IN STRIDE It is refreshing to tee signs ttiatj business men. in spite of the oppres sive dictatorial atmosphere that of necessity pervades our lives at the present time, still have a wide streak of good old-fashioned imagin ation. For example, the retail distribu tion industry has felt the effect of ironhanded control far more than most of us. Business men in that industry have lived very close to government dictatorship for months. The goods they handle are doled out as if to shipwreck victims lost at sea. The question of price is decided at the helm of government. But the merchants are taking the crisis in stride. The chains are wholeheartedly helping the government in every possible way to get a disagreeable job done in the shortest possible time. The iiiitative of management is directed toward making the con trols formulated by government a practical reality. In the field of food, they carry on extensive nut rition efforts. Bulletins are issued periodically by the National Assoc iation of Food Chains which show howto make food more palatable and go farther. These bulletins are compiled with brevity, clarity, and imagination.

As lung as this in stinct exists, the future holds prom ise. O DON'T WORK FOR THE SABOTKl R Spring clean-up tune has arrived Atics, basements and garages clut tered with a winter's accumulation of rubbish should be cleaned out now. They are fire hazards that pro mote the processes of combustion with the approach of warm, humid weather. Fire prevention is the greatest importance. The busiest war work er can lind time for a thorough clean ing of his premises. Preventable tires which destroy irreplaceable property, to say nothing of human lives, are utterly inexcusable. They slow down the war egort far more than most of us realize. When a home is destroyed by lire, one or more persons lives, if not interrupt ed permanently by death, are ine vitably interrupted for a measura ble period while a residence is being re-established. Each spring, communities through out the nation conduct fire preven tion clean-up campaigns. No esti mate can be made of the actual cash value represented by the saving of life and the improvement in health and property resulting from these annual campaigns. They remove disease-breeding conditions which might cause pestilence, in addition to eliminating fire hazards which might result in conflagration. Removing rubbish may not be as spectacular as catching a saboteur, but the beneficial result is the same A fire is a fire no matter how it star ted. If, through! stupidness and neg lect on the part of otherwise pa triotic citiens, valuable property is destroyed, it simply means that the saboteur can rest in his lair with a cynical chuckle. 'GARDENING The Victory Gardens of America can accomplish much in terms of food saving of transportation space, fac ilities, and labor.. But. more than that if 10.000,000 men and women, ' boys i and girls, who have heretofore known little or nothing of the rewards which come to them who love to delve in the soil, have gardens this : season, many will come to know a fastinating hobby. Gardening is a way of life and an i attitude toward it. It's the feel of ( moist, cool soil in a man's hand and i the feel of warm sun on his face. It's the turning of rich brown loam to the miracle of a new season, and friendly fat robins hopping over the dark earth. IT's raking and smoothing the plot, getting ready for the planting, with one's feet in soft mellowness. It's pulling the string taut for straight lines and making a drill with the end of the rake. And then as one plants noming except manpower. But one the drv seeds, there is a iov .n his!t0 alr ralt1s- nearly all German ci- hcart as he thinks ahead to the time of bloom and fruit bearing so. great is the wonder of the eternal promise of seed time and harvest. i nmts 01 ,nese -'finan cities are There is melodv in the bright sun j now" a l'.ole-in-the-ground. and the warm rain, in peaceful gray VVar awfully foolish.

Gardening is growing fruits and flowers yes, but it is also a link between a man and the verities. O VICTORY GARDENS IN HOKE The Bank of Raeford has offered a S25.00 Bond for the best garden in Hoke County. The McLauchlin Com pany has also offered a $25.00 Bond for the best garden in Raeford. 220 gardens have been started by Pub lic Assistance cases in the Welfare Department. 12 gardens have been started by parolees and 2 school gar dens (5 acres), the produce from which is to be canned for use in lunch rooms. Also 40 gardens have been started by Vocational War Produc tion courses, 35 gardens by FFA, 57 gardens by NFA and 149 gardens have been started by enrolees in Ne gro Evening Classes. All Hoke County teachers have been asked to work with pupils in getting Victory gardens started. POOLE'S MEDLEY By D. SCOTT POOLE I heard a young man say a few days ago: I done quit work; that don't pay. "These brick buildings represent work done yesterday. I have worked all my life. I believe idleness is sinful. ''I know," an idle mind is the Devil's workshop.' Busy people are never dishonest. It is the idle class who steal. Loaf ing will make a boy worthless. It would be better that a man work for nothing than loaf. It is said, let me say again, that atheists do not sing. They have no music in their souls. "No hell to shun, no Heaven to obtain." It is the joyous, happy believer in God, and Heaven who furnishes the world with the most soul-stirring music. Of all musical instruments the human soul is the most wonderful, and no wonder, that, for it has the most wonderful Maker. Happiness is most satisfactorily expressed in song. No matter how enlivenning the sound may be, there are those who listen, but their lips utter no sound of praise; nor are they interested in the most thrilling strains of mu sic, which urge most people to esta cises of Heaven-inspired song. But Mules are like that. me Allies are preparing lor an invasion of Europe, and it is wise to not give previous notice of the time when that invasion starts. We all talk too much, giving our opinion, when in reality, our opinions are worth very little to the cause of vie tory. The Germans sold wothless bonds to the people of the United States, and other nations, ani the World War 1, cost that nation nothing. When the Allies had them going in 1918. they brought forth the white flag, on the 1 1th of November of that year. It was said that war cost Germany ties are in ruins. Berlin is now a de.-troyed city. Other cities are blown to bits. Hundreds of square ""e nun, out an en leiiui.v in eternal puisnmeni can not be evaded. He. Hitler, is charged with the death of millions of better men than he himself ever was. Those persistant Japs have been driven oft islands, but you read af terward that they are there again. There have been a number of bat tles, and the Japs have suffered de feat as many times as there have been engagements, but still they co.rie back for more. Their pluck is admirable, but their judgment is poor. In lauda ble matters we would admire more. But our countrymen love peace; they hate war; they fight and die because they desire freedom to love and be happy. Japanese may have a gratification, but they are incapa ble of love.

B. decision, and the strike would like ly be renewed. I desire above all things to know what constitutes se dition, or rebellion? The United States cannot support a dual gov ernment. It came over radio two weeks ago, that, a strike leader said the strikers, he with others, would obey the dictates of John L. Lewis, but not the dictates of the President of the United States. That fellow should have been marched before a firing squad that day. If it could be proven he said it. The man who defies constituted government is a traitor, no more, no less, and 'he should reap a trai tor's reward. If a teacher allows children to over rule his decision once he would better resign. The same is true of parents. No use demanding and sacrificing humanity for freedom, if John L. Lewis, ct 1., divides honors with the executive department of the greatest republic on earth. More liquor is being sold than ev er before. Control? Never. The devil is increasing his business dai ly. If the people, men and women, are to be saturated in liquor people favor the sale of intoxicants be cause it brings in lots of tax money. The sin of it escapes them. Half the people of the world are starving. Numbers have died of starvation. The longer the war lasts, the greater the number of deaths from starvation. DID YOU KNOW? Released by Office of War Inform, tion, Raleigh, N. C. Whether a man works in a lumber camp or sits at a desk, he" needs approximately the same amount of meat each day. The principal value of meat is for protein energy is supplied by fats and cardohydrates. The name "Limey" for the Brit ish came from the fact that sailors carried limes with them on long voyages to prevent scurvy. Citrus fruits provide necessary Vitamin C. Malnutrition, due to slow starva tion, sapped the vitality of Germans in the last war and was the prin cipal cause of the collapse of that country. The Army feeds men at a cost of only 58 cents per day. The fighter eats two thirds of his food out of cans when on combat duty. England has supplied our U. S. Troops with 2 million blankets. 4 million pairs of socks, 290 million pounds of food supplies, and other materials. Even in the United States, where diets are comparatively good, a prog ram of adequate consumption will require 15 to 25 per cent more eggs than in pre-war days: 40 per cent more tomatoes and citrus fruits; 70 to 80 per cent more milk and milk products: and 125 to 150 per cent more leafy vegetables. Six million private and commun-, ity gardens produced one-fifth of England's supply of potatoes and vegetables last year. Pig and rab- i bit raising clubs are an important supplementary source of meat sup- ADMINISTRATORS NOTICE Having qualified as administrat or of the estate of W. J.

In England, the government owns all food supplies and is rationing them out to both restaurants and households as needed for the dura ton. About one-third of family pur chases of food in England are below cost, the government subsidizing cer tain commodities. Bread is just as good a source of ready energy as any candy bar or soft drink. Glycerine, made frois waste fats, is needed not only for munitions but for surgical dressings and ointments. among other things. O 40 Colored Registrants Reported To Ft.
