THROUGH THE VALLEY
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

When we pass through the valley Of
shadows,
With Jesus, our Saviour and King
And enter the golden portals
Join in the songs that they sing
We will meet again with loved ones
What beauty before us unfold.
No sickness nor sorrow can enter
That land where none ever grow
old.
Pleasant memories, what treasure
Worth more than fame or gold.
AS the sun sets over the river,
Life's tale is almost told.
The things that are seen are tenn
poral,-
Only creatures of day;
The joys of Heaven Eternal
They will never pass away.
Lay up your treasures in Heaven,
The homeland of the blest,
Where the weary ones and tired,
Will find sweet peace and rest.

Everlasting Life

In the quiet of the evening,
AS l lay me down TO rest,
My soul went out in longing
For the homeland of the blest.
l could almost see the city,
With the loved ones waiting there;
And the burdens of life were lighter,
AS l breathed my evening prayer.
There was something within that
told me
When the cares of life were DER.
There was quiet, peaceful resting,
On that happy golden shore.
Something that scattered the dark
ness,
A light which frightened the
gloom,
And l knew, oh glorious knowing,
Everlasting life beyond the tomb.

Railroads Extend
Telephone Usage

Telephone train dispatching is being
used by greater percentage of the
mileage of class one railroads in the
United States than ever before, the
telegraph and telephone section of the
Association of American Railroads re-
ports. Use of the telephone for dis
patching trains has steadily increased
during the past fifteen years.
Telephone service is now used for
transmission of orders for the opera
ton of trains over 1911 miles of
railroad or 63.72 per cent of the total
railroad mileage. In 1920 the tele-
phone was used for the transmission
of train orders over 48.5 per cent or
1864 miles of railroad.
From 1920 to 1885 there was an in
crease of more than 26 per cent in the
miles of road over which trains are
operated by means of train orders
transmitted by telephone. Use of the
telephone affords great f1exibility in
the transmission of train orders and
also expedites the transmission of such
orders. In the event of emergencies
in train operation, the train conductor
or engineman, by using a way station
or portable telephone, can give first
hand information to the dispatcher or
superintendent that is always helpful
under such circumstances.

SEEKS NEW COUNTRY
TO CONQUER

~ SOANNGCA
The European starting is taking in
new territory. Starlings have been
reported in North Dakota by bird
banding co-operator of the Bureau OF
Biological Survey in Fairmont, North
Dakota.
Introduced at New York City in
1890, the starting by January 1928,
was in every State from the Atlantic
to the Mississippi. The Biological
Survey at that time believed the
scarcity of suitable nesting sites in
the Great Plains would retard the
starling's westward advance. Blu
reau naturalists now believe that
eventually the bird will extend its
range at least to the Rocky Noun
tains and perhaps to the Pacific.
The startling is unpopular because
it congregates in great numbers
around homes and public buildings,
but it is not entirely an undesirable
alien, according to the Biological
Survey. AS destroyer of the
Japanese beetle, the clover leaf
weevil, May beetles, cutworms, grass
hoppers, and other pests, it is even
more energetic than many native
birds.

EXTRACT FROM SERMON
Rev. John Moses Baker

For God so loved the world that
He gave His only begotten Son that
whatsoever believeth in Him should
not perish, but have everlasting
life.-St. John 3:16.
Gods love is like great ocean,
divine, whose waves break on no
other shore however distant, but
whose sunlit tides flow on forever
and forever more. Yes, the unseen
player upon the golden harp of love
has struck the sweetest chord, and
the music gladdens and brings good
cheer to us all.
THAT whosever believeth in Him. "
How much it means to believe in the
Lord Jesus Christ. Accept Him by
faith as your personal Saviour, and
to know beyond the shadow of any
doubt that your name has been writ
ten in the Lambs Book of Life, and
that when life with all its cares is
ended, Heaven with all it's joys, its
sweet reunions shall be ours forever.
might not perish, but have ever
lasting life" Jesus said: My sheep
hear my voice, and know them, and
they follow me, and l give unto them
Eternal Life; and they shall never
perish, neither shall any man pluck
them out of my hand.-St. John
10:27-28.
There shall not hair of your head
perish. Luke 21:1S.

In the afternoon the Honorable
Gerald P. Nye gave a very enlighten-

many things which have been reveal

Sunday evening DR.. Lynn Harold
Hough, of Drew University, under
the title Liberty and Law" seemed
to find an explanation for the present
very serious situation because of lack
of loyalty to higher law He stated
that a person is not prepared to live
until he has found something to
serve outside himself. He also called
attention to the loyalty of the devot-
ed membership of the w. G. T. U.
which gave it such chance to be of
outstanding service in a world that
needs it so much.
Monday will be long remembered
for the wonderful addresses of Mrs.
E. Stanley Jones, who painted for us
picture of America under repeal,
from the foreigners point of view.

Their Faces
Are Red!

HEIR faces are red-these
ruddy tomatoes = but they
have nothing to blush about.
They aren't aware of their popu-
farity perhaps, but actually they're
invited to more meals than any
other vegetable.
Just look over your favorite re-
cipes, and see how many of them
include tomatoes in some form or
other. Soups, sauces, meats, vege-
tables, salads, cocktails and des-
serts-they are all made better by
that delicious and healthful blush
ing tomato.

Let EN- Blush

If you like fresh tomatoes, be
sure that they do blush. For the
merely pink tomatoes, hard and
understood which are shipped to
our northern climates during the
winter, are hardly recognizable as
the same fruit that ripens in the
gardens until it is large, deep
crimson and full-flavored-full of
juice and health-giving properties.
Canned tomatoes, of course, are
always of the blushing type. They
have been picked from the pick
of the crop at their prime, and
they have been quickly put into
cans so that their natural good
ness is preserved. 1t is these
canned tomatoes that we have
come to rely on as an all-year
round treat. Have you tried the
following simple way of using
canned tomatoes?
Scdlloped T0ntd t0es Scotch
Style: Bring to boiling the con-
tents of one No. 2 can of tomatoes,
three-fourths teaspoon salt, one
tablespoon sugar and few grains
of pepper. Add one-half cup of
quick-cooking rolled oats and pour
into buttered baking dish. Cover
the top with buttered crumbs and
bake in a hot oven-375 degrees
for thirty to forty minutes. This

The National Convention held at
Atlantic City will long stand out in
the memory of the thousand and
more delegates and visitors from
every State in the Union who were
privileged to attend. A list OF
speakers which would do credit to
any platform drew large crowds,
especially to the evening sessions and
the Sunday afternoon session, so that
the large auditorium, known as the
Ballroom in Atlantic City's huge en-
tertainment hall, was comfortably
filled several times.
The business sessions also were
very we'll attended, showing loyalty
and devotion to great cause which
alone can bring the victory so earn
estly sought after.
The opening session on Friday eve
ming was carried on with due pomp
and ceremony, being opened by
grand march of the National officers,
the State presidents carrying the
flags of their States, the entertain
ment committees, and splendid
group of young people all led by one
of Atlantic City's bands.
The wonderful organ music accom-
panied by marvellous lighting sys-
TEN was an inspiring part of this as
we'll as other evening sessions. The
organist, Mr.. William H. Jackson, of
Atlantic City, proved that he was no
stranger to the possibilities of har-
mony in the great instrument on
which he played.
Greetings on behalf of the Mayor
were graciously extended by Mr.
Thomas E. Reynolds, who presented
to our president the keys of the City
Other greetings were extended by a
r preventative of the Ministerial
Union and our chief hostess.
The mastery address of our be-
loved president, Mrs Ida B. Wise
Smith, which it is hoped all loyal
members may have chance 30 read
and study carefully themselves, was
presented in her delightful manner.
Several times she had a chance to
rest her voice while some point was
brought home visibly by beautiful
pantcmimes.
Saturday was Youths day and the
pre1en of so many fine young peo-
pie was an inspiration in itself, and
assured us that not all of the present
day young people have been, nor
are likely to be, won over by the
Moderation League. Their Two
minute speeches were a real chal-
lenge to the older members to be
worthy of the confidence placed in
their forerunners. The address of
the evening given by Wilbour E.
Saunders, headmaster of Peddie
School for Boys, on THE Rules of
the Came" brought out the fact that
youth is facing a pretty badly wreck
ed Old World brought about by the
folies of the past. The rules for
restoration, he stated, must be based
on cooperation, self-control, and
willingness to sacrifice.
Sunday noon and turnout the day
the National officers and presidents
filled so speaking engagements in
neiehhoring churches and we doubt
not the attendance at many of them
was larger than usual, and we hope

Peas Put
Starch in You

IF you feel a little limp, these
Il first warm days, perhaps you
need starch. You can freshen
up your spring meals by adding
green peas to many dishes, and
at the same time provide yourself
with the necessary starch content
which is apt to be lacking when
you begin to cut down on bread,
potatoes and the heavier starch
containing foods.
Let us see what interesting and
appetizing things we can do with
these invaluable peas. Here are
some suggestions.
HeaIthfuI and Appetizing
Jellied Cheese and Vegetable
Salad: Dissolve one package Of
lemon gelatin in boiling water
and add one tablespoon vinegar
and a few grains of salt. Cool.
Take one-half cup Of the gelatin
and stir into one cup of cottage
cheese, then pour in the bottoms
of eight individual molds which
have been wet with cold water.
Set in the refrigerator to stiffen.
When the rest of the gelatin is
beginning to thicken, add one cup
Of drained canned peas and car
rots and three-fourths cup Of
shredded cabbage. Pour into the
molds, chill, and unmold. Serve
on lettuce hearts with mayor
naise.
Potdge Longchdmps: Add two
tablespoons chopped parsley and
the contents of one No. 2 can of
peas which have been strained
(and the liquor reserved), to two
tablespoons butter in large
skillet. Cook gently for five
minutes. Press through a sieve.
Make a roux of two tablespoons
butter, two tablespoons flour and
add slowly the pea liquor COM
bined with enough milk to make
two cups. Add one chicken bouil-
lon cube and the pea pulp, cook
ing until smooth and . creamy.
Add one-half cup Of rich cream
and season we'll with salt and
pepper. Serve with spoonful
of slightly sailed whipped cream
on top. This serves five persona

STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE AT
SALISBURY
One Hundred Freshmen Register
Largest Entering Class In His
tory OF Institution

Including in its personnel repre-
sentatives from twenty Maryland
counties and Baltimore City, the en-
rollment of 1872 students at the Sails
bury State Teachers College claims
second highest place in the history
of the school, it was announced to-
day by the president, DR.. j. D..
Blackwell.
OF this total, 100 are new students,
of whom 100 are freshmen, the re-
naming six, together with the regu-
lar class of 20 students, comprising
the third year group. Forty-seven of
last years freshman class of fifty
five have returned for the Sophomore
year. 1t was the goal of the college
to reach the hundred mark in new
enrollments this September, DR..
Blackwell stated The income from
student fees, which includes tuition,
room and board, is approximately
1907 over the estimate for 193536.
A unique position is held by the
fourth year class of nine students, in
that they constitute the first degree
group to be enrolled. Completion of
this years curriculum will qualify
them for the degree of Bachelor of
Science in Education, their three
year certificates having been previ-
ously earned.
An additional feature marking this
years enrolment is the large num-
Der of men students, who form $3.50
of the total student body. Forty
eight of them are freshmen, nineteen
are second year students, and three
are enrolled for the third year, a
total of 70 men.

is reresented, Wicomico sending the
largest number. Following are the

FIXING IN
S-NRA DOOMED
Bill in Final Form to Be
Simply an Enabling Act,
Is Indication.

With both houses of the General
Assembly in weekend recess, mem
bers of the Senate Judiciary B Com
mittee continued to maintain a dis
Greet silence today regarding con-
templated amendments to the State
MIRA bill.
The committee will hold public
hearing at 7:30 Monday night, at
which the House approved Dyer
state industrial sterilization act
will be discussed.
Meanwhile it became increasingly
evident that the legislation will be
amended to convert it into a brief
state enabling act. Such measure
would supplement Federal machln-
cry for enforcing code compliance
by authorizing the Governor to
utilize existing judicial machinery
for enforcement in state courts.
Every one is agreed that the floss
leader" and price fixing provisions
of the Dyer act will be eliminated.
If the measure is converted into
an enabling act, there would be no
necessity for repeating the provisions
of the Federal laws, which, in fact,
still are pending before the Con-
greSS.
1t was learned on good authority
that the amendments which the
committee has in mind will make the
S-NRA bill wholly satisfactory to in
fluential industrial and labor groups
which have been displeased with the
Dyer bill.

Butler WaIkout Threatens
to Spread; New York
Police Alert.
By United Press

By United Press
NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-Eight hun
dred employees of 300 groceries were
to strike To-Day, inaugurating a new
capital-labor war threatening to
spread to thousands Of retail gro
Gerry, drug and cigar chain stores in
greater New York.
Officials Ct the Retail Clerks In
ternational Protective Association
ordered employees of the James But
Ter Grocery chain not to report for
work today.
Employees of the Daniel Reeves
grocery chain meet tonight to take
a strike vote, which officials said
would authorize another walkout.
Employees of the Whalen, Wal
green, Liggett and other drug store
chains, and of several cigar store
chains, also meet tonight and posi-
BILE strike action may be discussed.
Violence Outbreak Feared
Authorities, fearing major out
break of strikes and possible vio-
lence, ordered police to guard all
Butler stores. The guard will be ex-
tended to other stores as fast as
their workers leave, it was said.
Police are not to interfere with
picketing, which will he carried on
extensively. They are 20 protect
property and life.
While this strike threat breWed,
new potentialities Of trouble ap-
peared among organized elevator
operators and other building en-
ployes who staged short-lived
strike last Monday.
Building workers in the crowded
garment, fur, and silk districts of
Manhattan will walk out in mass
strike early next week unless build
ing owners abide by arbitration
agreements, union officials said.
Ask 25 Per Cent Pay Rise
The Butler employees demand Is
per cent wage increase. a 48-hour
week, union recognition and changes
in company rules concerning en-
ploye- manager responsibility for
spoilage of perishable merchandise.
These, roughly, will be the demands
of the other store employees if and
when they leave their jobs.
The Butler strike was ordered
after a strike vote conducted by
mail. It followed weeks of nego-
tiations by city and Federal medi-
atorS.
The company has been cited once
to the National Industrial Relations
Board for alleged violation of the
collective bargaining clause of the
MIRA, but the case was referred
back to the regional board.
