 Fittingly enough, the movement to restore and preserve Stratford Hall began in New England about a year ago, when members of the William Alexander, Jr., chapter, United Daughters of the ConfedCr- acy of Connecticut signed the con- tract for the purchase of the place raised funds for the initial payment of S5,0oo, and formed the Robert l.. Lee Memorial Foundation to cont- pleto the payments, restore the map- sion and grounds and convert the estate into a national shrine similar to Mount Vernon.
 Just as Mount Vernon is govern- cd and directed by board of Wom- en comprising membership from each state, Stratford will be govern- ed by q director from each state all of whom will be womcn-under the leadership of q national char man. Assisting the women will be q national advisory board of men Of national prominence. Among these latter are such men as Govern pr Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York. Governor Harry F. Byrd of Virginia. Senstor Carter Glass of Virginia. John W. Davis of New York and General R. A. Sneed. commander-in- chief O. the United Confederate va.- erans.
 There remains to be raised ap- proXimatoly $2o0,0o which is be- ing subscribed throughout the coun- try through the efforts of volunteer N Norllers.

Washington. Jan. II - Flying down the Potomac from Washing ton, airplanc tourist passes over Ar lington, Mount Vernon. GunstoA Hall, where James Monroe Was born Wakefield. birthplace of George Washington-and then. finally, passes over a great brick building shaped like letter "H," set in the woods of historic Wcstmorcland county, Virginia.
 This building, one of the first seats Of culture and refinement n the old colony of Virginia, is aboTt 10 be rest orod to it's former Condi- tion and thrown open 10 the people of the nation as q permanent shrina.
 It is the home of one of the most famous families in American history the Lees of Virginia And the campaign to preserve it as q memcn- to of famous men and vanished days is coming to d climax just as the southland is preparing to cele- bratc on Jan. 19, the 122d birthday anniversary of the old family's most distinguished member - General Robert F. Lee.
 The historic building it's calIed Stratford Hall, and it's story gons back 2T9 years, clear to the carly days of Virginia.
 Richard Lee, immigrant pioneer ancestor of the Lees. bought the land from the Indians in 1G50. Stratford Hall was built just 200 years ago, by Thomas Lee, who Was enabled to build it by means of a

gift from Queen Caroline, wife Of King George II of England
 In Stratford Hall were born Richard Henry Lee and Francis l.ightfoot Lee, signors of the Decla. ration of Independence. Here, too, were born Lighthouse Harry Lee, brilliant military leader of the Revolution, and his great son, Rob- crt l.. Lee, military genius of the Confcderacy.
 Few homes in America have as distinguished q tradition as Strat- ford Hall,
 It looks more like medieval castle than q colonial home. Built soldly of brick, and surrounded by q cluster of quaint outbuildings. it shows it's age plainly, and it has lost the splcndOr of the era when its gardens were called the most beautiful ill the south. The great brick chimneys that rise in clusters ol four look like old military battle- monts-and so, in q sense, they once were. for from their balconies a lookout used to be kept for rowing parties of hostile Indians.
 Back of the mansion there is q magnificent view of the Potomac, . miles wide at that point, sweep ing away to the blue cliffs that mark the eastern shore of Maryland. In front a road leads out to tho King'a highway, which extends from Wash ington to the Chesapeake Bay. and q part of which the United States government is now converting into a

THE SEARCHLIGHT
BY Jack Truthfixer
A VISION FOR THE FUTURl

We, as "a race, ask for too much
There isn't a negro in ten who
hasn't said, "Give me a chance"
Who's giving away chances, any
way? This is an age of competl-
ton and monopoly, not of Big
Brother helping Little Brother. All
we want is chance; give us
chance Did the white race ap-
proach the Indian with such a re-
quest? No; he took what he want
ed. The strong triumph over the
weak. The fit survive and it should
be so. To the victor belongs the
SpoilS
Read of Daniel Boone, Sewer and
the host of other frontiersmen who
forged their way through the Wild
erness, many of whose bones lie in
the desert, lives lost for the estab-
lishment of civilization, homes
and a community. Is there anyone
who would be so base as to think
race will not fight to keep within
its own confines that which its
forefatherS have bled and died? Is
there anyone so limited in judg-
ment who will not believe that only
after the Negro race has sacrificed
over a long period of time and
with a vision of the future has pre-
there will be the dawn of a new
pared for coming generations that
day? How many of us will go out
and pioneer the way, sacrifice for
the future? We as a race, want

money to buy stove for the winter.

swered, but that there stove is next

Shall the PRESENT indulge in
the circus, and the FUTURE bathe

A WORD OF COMFORT

1t is not by sullen disparagement
OF your lot that you will grow in
spiritual stature. It is rather by
survey Of your responsibilities
and opportunities and by cultivat-
ing a deep interest in what God
has for you to do.
The paths you tread, the house
in which you live, the very tools
which you employ, will take on
color and significance from the
purpose which actuates your life.
If your heart is set upon doing
a mans work like a man, the
sternest elements in your environ
ment will be beautified and you
will develop wisdom and strength
to make your mark in the world

ADVISER

That some people need advice
there is no doubt, but you can tell
a genuine adviser from a pin-head-

The genuine adviser says: There
is something wrong; I'm going to
straighten things out, and I'll begin
with myself
The pin-head always begins with
somebody else; his race, church,
brother, preacher, heaven or hell.

The genuine adviser practices
what he breaches. The pin-head
only breaches.

TWO FINE CAKES

If you have been in the habit OF
using only butter in your cakes,
it may, at first, be little hard to
understand how Crisco can make
cakes that you simply can't tell
from butter cakes. But it's true!
One taste of Crisco, just as it
comes from the can will tell you
why. Did you ever imagine a
shortening could be so sweet and
fresh?
Now don't you understand why
more and more cooks are u IN 6

RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE

IF only I could live my life over
again!'' Many who think that they
are failures, or that life has been
harder for them than for others
say something like this. Have you
said such things?
AS a matter of fact, right where
you are is a perfect starting place,
for you. When you are IN the
frame of mind in which you think
of yourself as a failure, naturally
YOU think that the future looks
hopeless and your affairs are far
more complicated than any one else
can realize. But what has anyone
else to do with your tangled affairs?
The matter is one between you
and your indwelling spirit. There
can never be any muddle too COM
plicated for spirit within you to
straighten out. Say nothing about
your difficulties until you have
turned to the One that has more
wisdom to pass on to you than has
and good neighbor or faithful
friend
You cannot turn humbly toward
Him, in any situation, without re-
ceiving direction. Such direction
should be expected. 1t comes in
many ways. 1t always comes in
exactly the right way. God is ever
present and ever ready to be active
in your affairs when you are con-
scious of His presence and expect
His activity. No person can take
hold of a tangle and get order out
of it as He can and will Your
wisest friend, however deep is his
desire to help you, cannot direct
you perfectly. Only God can so
direct you, for God knows every
thing and see what your friend
cannot see. God waits only for
your call on Him to come into ac-
ton into your life, to guide you
in everyday matters, to comfort
you with His greatest love, to give
you all that you need.
Learning direct from the Holy
Spirit within is a glorious expert
ence. It is an adventure. Do not
now regret any of your So-called
lost opportunities, and sigh because
you cannot live your life over again
To depend on God and follow His
direction means victory after vic
tory. 1t means the wonderful ex-
perience of stepping out from fail
ure and dreariness, and going for
ward to future packed with in
creaSing interest each day.
1t is splendid experience to
work with God when you trust Him
wholly. You will not know just
how He is going to help you, and it
is better not even to wonder how
He will do it. When confidence in
Him is maintained, everything WI
work out all right in the most ma
tural way imaginable. Remember
always that God loves you and that
He loves all those whom you be-
lieve to have contributed to any
failure that you seem to have made.
His love is around you always; it
is between you and those whom you
believe to be your enemies; it seeks
to draw you and them together.
Trust Him. Do not look ahead
doubtfully There is no need for
worry. All that you have to do is
to expect His guidance in every
hour of every day, and follow that
guidance. The way is not even
difficult if you are content to take
one step at time with the trust
fulrless of a child; what you start
in near desperation will quickly be-
