 Washington, May 17--(U. P.) - President Hoover has been holding "back door" conferences with in. creasing frequency lately.
 Callers slip in and out of the chief executives offices without be- ing generally seen.
 one such group insisted they were merely paying our respects" The group included members of the republican national committee, here to complete arrangements for the convention in Chicago next month.
 Another "back door" caller was Secretary of State Stlmson, just back from Europe. He came in the back way and went out over to the house with MT Hoover for lunch con. He went through the south grounds and the basement exit of the offlces--unseen.
 There are two "back doors" at Mir Hoover's offices. One leads to Il covered passage way which con meets the executive offices with the White House proper. rms is on tne same floor as the presidents pri- .vate room. Another. door frequent- ly used is in the basement. It leads out onto west executive avenue, which separates the White House grounds from the state. war and navy building.
 The executive offices are built on a terrace, So that while the front entrance is level with the approach drive, the rear is one story above street level.
 The president had on a new sui' vest erday. He was dressed entirely in brown, wearing a light spring suit of that color, tan shoes and brown soft hat. In this sprightly at- tire. he posed for a photograph with the Sons of the American Revolution '~,r.,t afrt

HEALING OF POVERTY AND
 UNEMPLOYMENT


 How is Christian Science going to help in poverty and unemploy- ment? In the first place let us re- member that there Is a universal employment which is not ordinar- fly reckoncd as such by the cohi- mon use of the word. This univcr- sal employment is thinking. All have to do certain amount of thinking. It Is not generally under stood that a mans experience Tn life is very directly the outcome or his thinking. Laziness Is lazy think ing. and dishonesty IS dishonest thinking: and while the effects of these may seem to be very material, the cause will always remain men, tai. that Is, in the individual char actcr.
 We'll someone may say. Whtt am to think about? There ,.is plenty to think about. If you will refer once more to our statement that God is absolute, that Life. good. and Love Is infinite. you can surely see that God never caused poverty or unemployment. There fore when you, find suggestions en- tering your thoughts such as that the war or some catastrophe ruined your business. that you are too old or too young. that you are too inexperienced or unlucky. are you going to let these thoughts rule you and blur your vision of good? No. Then get down to your job of "bringing into captivity" as Paul says, "every thought to the obedience of Christ" the divine manifestation Of tho absolute God.
 ,i. ,,t of t,ttn1 all 1aAtrlfts. tive thinking. such as fear, hatred, envy, depression, and ingratItude, and you will then become a con structive thinker. Now a construc- tive thinker does not merely Ind job, he makes one--and often where least expected. David said. "I have been young. and now am old yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken. nor his seed begging broad" The Master said, "Blessed are tho pure in heart: for they shall sec God" Now t Is in accordance with God or goos to be active. busy. and useful Therefore let us purify the think ing of the heart, and we shall see and experience good. and this the corner stone of tho healing o' unemployment and poverty. M CnilSHNn SclentlStS we ndNe ny quarrel with either the medica. faculty or other denominations There are great and grand men and women in those professions. anc all we can say is, By their frult' yc shnll know them"
 Let me therefore ask you to iis1 more thoughtfully than ever before your most reliable and most nc- tive human faculty, namely, rch son. Reason from the standpolni of one great. good, and loving cause, which is Love itself, and which Is Mind. not matter. Then and then alone will you get al' things into their true perspective You will be an idealist. but q very practical one. because you will Dc able to prove for yourself and Tor others mans God-given right here and now. to Life. joy. good strength. and all that goes to nakn up that which we call the kingdonnt of God. For does not the Father say, "Son. thou art ever with me and all that l have is thine?

Let us take several illustrations of the working of Christian Science in our daily life-illustrations Of how to meet and to overcome trouble.
 THE HEALING OF DISEASE
 Many people still believe that God either sends or permits dis case for the benefit or discipline of mankind. If you had charge of the world. would you, even. with q human sense of compassion. do such n thing? If you had infinite power, would you need to employ the most dreadful sicknesses and plaques in order to regenerate mankind? No. your very infinite power could regenerate instantane- ously. Why then do we suffer ? Why Is disease so great n part of said that 1t Is all owing to fear, Health, D. 411). This means that disease Is based on something which each one of us can and must deal with himself, up to point at any rate.
 
 inherited disease or from one that he has never thought of, this does not alter the fact that ignorance of God has opened the door for this disease to enter. Now how Is this to be healed? In her textbook Mrs Eddy gives an interesting H. lustration of the standpoint from which to advance and meet disease. Let me say that this standDolnt is of the very greatest importance. up by surgeon and by q Chris tian Scientist when faced by two parallel cases of bone disease. Let me read you what she says tSci- ence and Health. D. 422. 420: "The surgeon. holding that matter forms It's own conditions and ren. ders them fatal at certain points, entertains fears and doubts as to the ultimate outcome of the injury Not holding the reins of govern ment in his own hands, he believes that something stronger than Mind namely, matter - governs the case. His treatment Is therefore tentative. This mental state invites defeat. The Christian Scientist understanding scientifically that all is Mind. commences with men, tai causatlon, the truth of being, to destroy the error. This correc- tive is an alterative. reaching to every part of the human system. According Co Scripture, it sSarches the joints and narrow and t res stores the harmony of man"

SHORTER HOURS FOR
ALMOND WORKERS

Adoption of a six-hour day
in order to give employment to
a larger number of its plant
workers, was announced today
by the California Almond Grow
ers Exchange.
By reducing the work hours
from eight to six and placing the
operations of its main plant
here on a three shift basis, the
number of employees is increas-
ed approximately one-third, ac-
cording to D. R. Bailey, plant
superintendent. The rest peri
DDS are included in each of the
six hour shifts.
The new work schedule was
tested over a three week peroid
and is approved by the workers,
Baily stated. Women workers
who assist in maintaining the
family income and who have
home duties as well, strongly
endorse the plan.
Wages under the new plan
have been adjusted to the sat-
tisfaction of the workers." Bal
ley said. "They were first re-
duced 25 per cent in line with
the same per cent reduction in
work time. We then increasd
the wages 10 per cent because
the shorter work period increas-
ed the efficiency of the workers.
We are now employing 500 peo-
pie and will increase the num-
Der to over 700 as the season
progresses. The shorter work
day has not only proven satis-
factory but it is also providing
income to a larger number OF
workers. Waterford News.

FAMOUS PAINTED DESERT

The famous Painted Desert"
area which includes some color
full ''bad lands" and a Black
Forest of petrifed wood, was
added to the Petrified Forest
National Monument in Arizona
President Hoover signed a pro-
clamation on September %.
The proclamation covers ap-
proximately $1,000 acres, of
which 1882 acres were already
Government owned land and
approximately 29,468 acres were
privately ly owned.
The territory added a few
miles north of the present mon
ument and a strip mile wide
connects the two areas. The
newly-constructed bridge over
the Rio Puerco, which was ded-
icated in July, makes this area
easily accessible to visitors from
PeUrifed Forest.
The addition to the painted
Desert" to the Petrifed Forest
Monument makes of this
most unique reservation, be-
ginning with colorful mari
dunes, spotted with great black
petrifed trees, some perhaps
lying where they fell with
stumps and roots undisturbed.
Then proceeding south over a
level cactus and sage-dotted
plain, crossing the historic San
ia Fe Trail, and ending in an
other petrifed forest region.
where giant trees that were
carried in millions of years ago

els in the sunlight.

FALL IS THE TIME TO
CHECK over CAR
SAYS TIRE DEALER
SUDDEN COLD SPELL MAY
FIND NOTORIST UNPREPARED

"The wise motorist will see
that he is not caught unprepar-
ed by a sudden cold snap" said
Mr.. Henry Appel of Appel q
Son Co. Fall weather is so
changeable that even though
you start out on a trip in fine
weather, you may come back
through sleet or snow; and then
is when you need Non-Skid on
your tires.
"Tires are so low in price
now that it is impractical to risk
life and property trying to run
out the last mile. Based on
the present selling price, the lasl
thousand miles in 4.75-19 tire
is worth only 43 cents. When
you drive with smooth tires you
are gambling 43 cents against
your life and your family's. You
may only need safe tires for
one second of your life, but if
that second comes while you are
travelling 60 miles an hour---88
feet per second---safe tires mean
life itself. The extra traction
and safety of Firestone tires
was recently demonstrated on
the salt beds near Salt Lake
City, when Abe jenkins drove
a Firestone-equipped Pierce
Arrow car 2710 miles in "a hrs.
over circular 10 mile course,
an average speed of 1921 mi.
per hour, breaking all existing
world records.
Fall should be the time for
a general check-up of the car"
continued Mr.Appel, "The bat
teries soon will be called upon
to turn over motor stiff from
cold, and lights will be burning
for longer hours. The generat-
or charging rate should be ad-
vanced and the battery inspec-
ted to be sure there are no weak
cells that might fail when you
need them most. Spark plugs
also need adjusting for hard
winter starting, and radiator
hose connections should be in
spected so that you will not
waste anti-freeze solution or
alcohol.
"If the motorist checks his
tires, battery, brakes, spark
plugs, and radiator hose, he can
rest assured that he will have
safe trouble free winter driving"

PLANT THE GARDEN NOW

If ever there was a time to
have a garden it is now. This
depression is calling to most of
us for economy and curtailment
of every item of expense posi-
BILE. Now every little helps and
everyone who has a back yard
can have a garden. And it will
go long way toward helping a
family through this winter and
next spring. But most of the
people who read this will say.
"Ah, that Is all foolishness and
time thrown away. | have
tried and tried and always fail
ed. This old DOLBY land just
won't grow nothing"
There is just where you all
make a mistake. If you go at
it right you will be successful
and it will surprise you how
easy it is to have a real success
full garden and have something
every day for your table with
out running to the market for
it. Now this rain has helped a
lot for a starter, but if the soil
is not wet enough turn on the
hose and give it a good soaking.
1t should be wet down at least
10 inches, then as soon as it is
dry enough, cover the ground
with from two to four inches of
good rotted fertilizer. This
should be spaded uD at least
eight inches and the soil turned
over so that all the fertilizer
will be covered. For broad
casting seed take a rake and
level and smooth the ground;
for onions and cabbage make
rows. Plant onions and cab.
bage in rows; beet, turnips. let
tuce. etc., broadcast.
Over all this, cover the soil
from one to two inches with fine
fertilizer. Now put on your
sprinkler and give it another
good soaking and don't let the
sprinkler wash the fertilizer to
the bare ground, as it holds the
moisture and keeps the soil
from getting hard. You will
be surprised how quickly you
will have lot of stuff growing.
And it won't have a thing to
do but just keep growing. 1t
will save a lot of money and be
a real pleasure to you. Get
busy now, after this rain, and
in a week the stuff will be up
and coming, and it will be no
trouble after this if the soil is
kept moist About two sprinkl-
ings a week will do.---Exchange
