Carolina fcX /mi awciatkJTj) MONDAY, AUGUST 2, 1113 THEY DID NOT TALK Civilians have been thor oughly aware of the impor tance of not aiding the enemy through the system of talking too much and passing informa tion or mere hearsay or by act ing important and “ih the know” and thus confiding se crets to the indiscreet. But there have been few instances where the confidences placed in the press have been violated and newspaper men revealed important facts indiscrimi nately, and heedless of cost. The correspondents abroad have been taken into the con fidence of officers and trusted with news, withholding vital information that might boom the sales of their sheet but put ting the welfare of their coun- j try before the salary check from their boss. In the recent invasion we find the trust placed in them by General Eisenhower, who met them in a press conference the middle of June and in~ formed them that overseas op erations would be undertaken with the month. He also said the attack was to be aimed at Sicily. This took the men by surprise although they had been used to strict confidence of the military authorities. This was an event that would make history with the approx imate time and exact place given. They carried this news around for almost a month, wondering each day when the blow would strike, how it would be met. General Eisen hower had trusted them, his manner suggested he expected them to obey his order to keep silent as he would expect one of his men in uniform to obey his command. This general is well liked and no wonder he is respect ed. He gave the newsmen the information to be sped to their public but they must keep their stories until he gave the commanad to fire. His trust in the press was not violated by one man of the hundred who listened to his voice that June day. DANGER The war news has been so good in recent months that most of us give less and less thought to the possibilities of bombings or serious acts of sabotage in this country. As a result, many town defense or ganizations, which a year ago bristled with activity, are now relaxing. It is comforting to think that the danger of war com ing to this country is over, but it is quite possible a false com fort for which our people will pay for dearly if they put too much faith in it. When we have defense organizations built up all over the country they should be kept on their toes while there is still any danger. And they should real ize that is is just the kind of let-down which is going on now which will invite our ene mies to take a blow at our na tion. We are all glad to know that the Germans, the Japs and the Italians are being thrown back on all fronts. But it must not be forgotten that .they still have plenty of equip ment and could, if they wished still attempt raids on this country. TELLING THE PRESIDENT Labor leaders still seem to be giving orders to the Presi dent. As things now stand, they have told him that they will forget the “Little Steel Formula,” which freezes wage adjustments at 15 per cent above what they were in 1941, unless he does sometning im mediately to bring the cost of living down. There are none of us who would have any objection to the President doing something to reduce living costs, but la bor leaders are the only ones which would use an “or else . . .” type of threat. It’s a good thing, for example, that our farm leaders aren’t of the same variety as labor leaders, or they might threaten to stop the production of food unless the farmers got better prices. It is still a mystery to most of the people in this country why labor has such a strong in fluence over the President. But we hope he will soon stop saying “Yes, sir” to the labor leaders and will use this latest threat as an opportunity to “tell them off.” "maiden news" ,ia>Ba.a Mr. and Mrs. Janimes Caldwell were hosts to the members of the Tiaining Union of the First Baptist Church at a weiner roast at their home on Tuesday evening.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers When beets are young and tender, i they’re really two vegetables in one. . The tops county as green leafy vege . tables, rich in iron and valuable vita : mins. An the beet roots contain vi tamin Bl an G. In cooking beets, the important . thing is to save the red color. That’s i why the home economists tell you to leave on the skins, the roots and part ol the stems. Cook the beets whole, so there’s no chance for the color to “bleed.” When they’re done drain the water and slip the skins off the beets. Slice for serving, or if you have tiny beets, serve them whole. Would yoo like to have our good Harvard Beet recipe? Write us. If the beet tops are young enough t' l be tender, be sure to use these greens. Cook them like any other leafy vegetable—for only a short time in a small amount of water. You can serve the greens alone, or I thnk they make one of the best looking vegetable combinations when you serve the greens right along with the red beets. When cooked and cooled, beets are a good salad vegetable. The red color makes a fine contrast with your sal ad greens. Be sure to wait until just before serving to mix the beets with more ingredients. F’or especially good beet salad, add chopped hard-cooked egg. Beets with grated cheese is an other good combination. Correct tools in good condition make the job easier; they save time and energy. Often the reason house work becomes drudgery is because of the lack of proper tools to do the job or because they are in poor con dition. Another time saver is a note hook and pencil conveniently placed so that you can jot down things to be done and things to be bought. A writ ten list will save many a step, while a mental list will cause many a stop. THIS AD WAS NOT DESIGNED to be conspicuous, yet hundreds of others will read it, just as yon are doing. Isn’t that proof that TBS Polhill Feed Company Enlists In Crusade For Food Production The Polhill F’eed Company has en listed in a “F’oou for Victory Cru sade,” which is sponsored by the teed industry through Purina Mills. The purpose of the crusade is to increase our national food production ny elim inating production losses due to faulty farm management, inadequate sanitation and wasteful feeding of livestock and poultry. The Polhill store is one of ap proximately 7,000 Purina dealers who are joining hands all over the country in a spirit of unselfish pa triotism to conserve feed and to eliminate one of the most serious bottlenecks of our war efforts- —the production of more fighting food fur our soldiers, war workers and Allies. This “Crusader,” in turn will en list the farmers of tile community, calling on them in their poultry hous es and feed lots, to help them with a series of suggested management, feeding and sanitation practices which have been recommended by national and state agricultural au thorities. Copies of the “Action Sheets” to be used are attached. All farmers thus enlisted will be included on an “honor roll" displayed in the store and a copy forwarded to the secretary of agriculture in Wash ington. The feed-lot service is offered without charge to all poultry and livestock raisers regardless of the feed they use. and will be continued for the duration. Nationally, the “Food for Victory Crusade" is sanctioned by the U. S. Department of Agriculture and the Office of War Information. "And this he our motto” the power that hath r made and preserved us a nation I Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just. And this be our motto: ‘lll God is our trust!’ ” Through the ages singing has tieen instrumental in arousing courage and uplifting faith. Today amidst world turbulence people are being ! urged to sing more. Individually and ! collectively, therefore, they are par ticipating fervently and frequently in the singing of their national an thems. The deep spiritual significance ot the above inspiring declaration in the last verse of the national an them of the United States of America is worthy of thoughtful meditation at this time, and serves to remind us l of tile wisdom of those words (Prov erbs 3:5), “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not untc thine own understanding.” All through both the Old and the New Testament are accounts of vic tories and rejoicings by faithful ones who put their trust in God when in need of a sustaining -power greater than their own limited human abil ities. Their faith that righteousness must prevail, and that their strength was of God, was their assurance ot ultimate victory. Christ Jesus taught his disciples and followers the importance of rec ognizing and acclaiming God as Father of all. His earthly ministry was entirely devoted to urging all men to renew faitli in God, to trust Him, and to seek an understanding of Him, and lie proved through his healing work that this understand ing was vitally necessary to their joy and happiness. . . . The following elucidating detini tion of God is given oil page 587 ol the Christian Science textbook, “Sci ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science; “The great 1 AM; the all knowing, all-seeing, all-acting, all wise, all-loving, and eternal; Prin ciple; Mind; Soul; Spirit; Life; Truth; Love; all substance; intelli gence.” . . . God is Spirit. He is the only caust and creator, and man, created in His Image and likeness, therefore is spir • itual. Man is not material, mortal; he reflects Spirit aild is immortal. Knowing God as Principle enables us to discern that the real man in God’s image is righteous in ail his actions. Man, the perfect idea ot God, divine Love, is loving and lov able, incapable of either hate or fear Because God is good and has created everything good, man, His reflection, is the manifestation of good. The understanding of the allness of good eliminates any opposite belief, and demonstrates the nothingness and unreality of evil and its claims to power. As we intelligently place more trust in God’s ever-presence, His om nipotent power, and His plan and purpose for His creation, our happi ness and success are ensured. We soon find ourselves expressing more harmony in our daily affairs; con fusion gives way to calm and poise; intolerance is replaced by tolerance, and we awaken to a greater sense of love and unselfishness. We gain an understanding of real security and substance, proving that “they that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot lie removed, but abideth for ever.” . . . As we strive to consecrate our thinking to good, to glorify God in all our activities, and trust His un erring guidance, we shall be able to prove true the words of Mrs. Eddy (Science and Health, p. 444): “Step by step will those who trust Him find that ‘God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.' ” —The Vhri»tion Bcieiwe Monitor.
