THE ONE AMERICAN IDEA

As our boys in kin or friendship
60 into this war by Joining the
ranks Of those who use guns as
they fight, we realize all the more
that we, too, must fight 10y produc-
ing more and more food crops.
The one idea, whether at home or
not, is that Of winning the war for
democracy.
The producers have been doing
their share They will continue
to do so. And as they learn better
what to do they will be more sue
cessful in their results.
The call of leaders as they
look Mt the world wide situations
isl that more foodstuffs be produced
and that more be saved. This does
not mean that the organization of
the farm is to be changed, all real
ize that this may be a war covering
many years and it our agriculture
we're to be disorganized for this
present year, the years that are to
come would be inadequately han
died. We must build our farms
for permanent usefulness.
And ia this connection, it may
be said that community orgauiza-
tions for agriculture and all war
work may well be considered from
a permanent point of view. We
shall need much food whether the
war lasts or not and certainly if
the war lasts.

His mother could not do enough for
Jackie. Yet Edith felt anxious
On Sunday afternoon John Ferrol
helped Edith bring the preserves over.
Mrs Fem met them, dressed in mode
which while unasSuming was yet OF the
finest and coStlieSt material and make.
She appeared nervous, yet obviously
eager to welcome them. The living
room into which the Ferrols were asked
was furnished with simple and unoSten-
tatiouS taste. A second glance told
Edith. however, that the money spent
on the furnishings was beyond the scale
on which people in Arcadia could af-
ford to live.
Mr. Fem finally appeared and was
introduced. A closer look at him in
tensified all Ediths uncasness. His
eyes could not meet the eyes OF the
Ferrols. His nerves seemed on the
stretch, as though momentarily he ex-
pected to face something he feared.
Johns scrutiny made him fldget and
look scared, and he made some excuse
for going into his study.
There was a ring on the front door.
Mrs. Fem, who was entertaining the
Ferrols too eagerly and wistfully to
make the Ferrols feel at ease, started
nervously at the sound OF the bell ES-
cusing herself she left the room and
went to the front door The Ferrols ex-
changed glances.
They heard Mrs, Fem open the door
and a mans voice say:

There was an instant'S silence Then

At the sound of the mans voice the
