Gently you tried to make me realize
that | must take over my duties of wife
and home. | remember how you sug-

a superior way. OF course wanted to

How injured l felt when you began
to find it pleasant to 60 out without me!
Still l remained wrapped in my mantle

Then the night before the dance at
the club you remarked so indiferently
that you guessed youwould take Eleanor.

furious. All my pent-up, abused feelings

uncertain terms that Eleanor was not
going with you, but that | was.

And as l paused for breath the funny
side of it came to my rescue, and l
lauphed until the tears came. Then you
looked at me: those same eyes, always
SO understanding, and said simply,

about it. But when you came home
you took me by both shoulders and
looked at me; then you smiled slowly,
and all the love in your heart shone from
your eyes. You know have always told
you that your eyes were the first things
that attracted me to you. Well, | just
couldn't tell you then, SO | waited.
Later, as we sat at dinner you said,
"Well, what was the doctors verdict?
He couldn't have found much wrong

YOU then, but you looked SO contented,
that again couldn't do it.
AS we strolled into the living room

were telling me something about the

at you as you reached for the paper.
"Oh, by the way" you called after me

sit on your footstool and tell you in as
matter-of-fact way as could. would
just tell you what the doctor said and
try to pass it off as lightly as possible.
And, as waited, my mind started roam

We met when we were hardly old
enough to know our own minds but we
did know that we were meant for each

Britdin's Capital

In the light of recent events,
which have given rise to the
question of whether England
could be defended against the
rising power of Germany, the sug-
gestion has been made that Great
Britain's seat of government be
removed to Canada.
While the idea may appear fan
tastic at the moment, it is being
discussed, though perhaps not
very seriously. by some news
papers on both sides of the At
lantic. The time may come, how
ever, when some such step might
become desirable, or even neces-
sary.
The London news weekly Caval-
cade points out notable prece-
dent for such move, citing that
the Emperor Constantine, fearing
Rome could not be defended
against the barbarians of the
north, removed his capital from
Rome to Byzantium-later named
Constantinople in the year $50.
The barbarians did, in fact, take
Rome in the next century, while
the empire based on Constantin.
ople persisted with varying for
tunes for another thousand years.
Naturally, the proposed visit of
King George and Queen Elizabeth
to Canada and the United States
next year is linked with the sug-
gested capital removal but this
is only idle speculation, although
affording wide possibilities for
discussion.

SeGSondbIe Ads

The advertisements which ap-
pear in this edition of the Hagers-
town Globe are just as seasonable
as the weather or the styles dis
played in the shop windows.
In fact nothing is more season
able than advertisements. When
autumn arrives and winter ap-
proaches, advertisements change
as definitely as the weather, if
not more so. Advertisements her
aid the approach of a new season
before the thermometer heralds its
arrival
This is so because stores and
other business places that adver-
tise their wares and services are
keenly alert to anticipate the
wants of their customers. When
you inquire for Fall goods at a
store that advertises, you are not
informed that shipment of the
merchandise will arrive sometime
if there is sufficient demand for
it. This is one of the many adj
vantages of dealing with a bust
ness firm that believes in creating
trade by advertising, instead of
waiting for possible customers to
put in their appearance. You
know when you head for such
shopping mecca that the goods

Trdding Muscle For Fat

An insurance company finds
that 20 per cent of its policy hodl-
ers over the age of 40 are over
weight. The doctors tell us that
when we reach an elderly life, it
is far better to be underweight
than overweight. The fat man can
look with envy on the beanpole
figure.
The trouble with the majority of
these folks, is that they lost inter
est in physical activity. 1t seem
ed easier to them to sit on cush-
Toned seat, and let the gas buggy
pull them around When you give
up some of your muscle, and allow
fat to grow in its place, you are
likely to be trading off some
years Of your life.

Big Mirror Tests

First optical tests of the new
mirror for what will be the
worlds greatest telescope were
made this month by scientists OF
the California Institute of Tech.
nology at Pasadena, and were re-
ported as satisfactory, although it
will be some time before the mas
sive instrument is completed.
The mirror is two hundred in
ches in diameter, and the grind
ing of its large surface is a most
tedious and delicate task, already
in progress more than two years.
1t is expected that its surface,
when finished, will be within one
millionth of an inch of absolute
accuracy. The largest telescope
mirrow now in existence is on Mt
Wilson, Calf, and is 100 inches
in diameter.
After much preliminary work.
the new 200-inch mirror was
poured at the Corning IN. W
Glass Works in 1884 at a temper
AZURE of about 1900 degrees.
When the pouring was finished,
the temperature was raised to g.
400 degrees for several hours, and
then allowed to cool very grad
ually, the process requiring many
months.
The mirror was shipped to Cal
ifornia in 1886, since which time
the grinding has been in progress.
The monster piece of glass orig
inally weighed more than 20 tons,
but about five tons have been
ground from it's surface in shaping
it for its intended use.
1t may take another two years
or more to mount the telescope
and place it in operation. Astron-
omers throughout the world are
eagerly awaiting its completion,
and are specializing on the new
wonders of the heavens it may
disclose,

The annual Hint

Already the stores are preparing
to receive shoppers = not neces-
sarily Christmas shoppers, altho
they are ready for them too. From
physical evidences there is plenty
to choose from, especially .neces-
saries. The advertisements show,
even this soon, an inconquerable
optimism, a distant feeling that
the worst is over.
To get it said do your shop
ping early. Advice like this is al
ways good as the climacteric
season nears. To take it means

ishing nothing. He picks up let
ter to answer it and lays it down
to pick up another letter and fuss
with that. He puts the hard
work at the bottom of the pile.
He leaves a hard job on his desk
day after day until it absolutely
has to be done and then he
rushes it out in such a hurry that
it seldom is done right.
THE big things of life are
never done by a fussy man. When
one is worrying about half doz-
en- tasks that must be done in the
future, he fails to do the present
task as it should be done. One
task at a time, finished and
started on its way before lacking
the next task, is rule that
makes for poise and power"

HitJer'S Philosophy

In five years Adolph Hitler has
brought Germany from a position
of military impotence to that of
the most powerful and most feared
nation in the world. This amaz-
ing result was not achieved by
mere accident or good luck. 1t
was planned that way.
For an insight into Hitler's
moral and political philosophy, one
needs only to read his own book,
MY Battle" written for the most
part while in jail at Landsberg,
Germany, for an attempt to start
a revolution fifteen years ago.
Briefly stated, he believes that
might makes right and that a ma
ton is entitled to take whatever
it can by force or threat of force.
One Or two quotations from the
book are sufficient to make this
clear. He says:
mo nation on earth holds a
square yard of territory by any
right derived from heaven. From
tiers are made and altered by hui
man agency alone. The fact that
a nation succeeds in acquiring an
unfair share of territory is no
superior reason for its being re-
spected forever. It merely proves
the strength of the conqueror and
the weakness of those who lose by
it. This strength alone consti-
tutes the right to possess.
Therefore, just as our forefath-
ers did not receive the land in
which we live as a present from
heaven. but had to fight with their
lives for 1t, SO In future nothing

Getting Work Done

1t is related of Henry Ward
Beecher, the great Brooklyn
preacher of the last century that
when a friend once asked how
he managed to get through so
much work in day, he replied:
"By never doing anything
twice. I never anticipate nv
work and never worry about it.
When the time comes to do a
thing, ! do it, and that's the end
of it."
The formula sounds simple
enough, but how many of us can
follow it? An exchange contrasts
the methods of fussy persons
with the concentration and direct
ness of Beecher, in this fash
ion:
'"The fussy, hurried. worried
man is the chap who tries to do
everything at once. He dabbles
in this and dabbles In that - fin
The Hagerstown globe. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1936-1943, 1938-11-11

will grant us land and life for our
nation, except the power of vic
torious sword"
So whatever may be thought of
Hitler's philosophy, the rest of
the world may as we'll realize
just what it is, and be prepared
to meet his aggression with the
only argument he understands -
military force.
The Hagerstown globe. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1936-1943, 1938-11-11

that there will be no rush at the
end, even for people not so well
situated, financially, as Others.
Spreading the cost more thinly
will make it easier in the final
reckoning. Get set now, and YOU
will experience a more leisurely
approach; the last minute" will
not be so strenuous.
There will, of course, be the
usual Christmas Eve shoppers, but
if you can do so, do not number
yourself among them Remember
some of your gifts may have to
make long journeys, and you can
always tag them do Not Open
Until Christmas.

will be there.
If you want merchandise that
was in vogue several years ago,
go to the store that dosen't adver-
tise.

Telephone Links Oldest
Independent countries
In Western Hemisphere

When the United States Secretary
of State Cordell Hull and the Haitian
Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs
Auguste TURNER opened the new radio
telephone service between the United
States and Haiti, they established a
telephone line between the two Oldest
independent countries in this henais-
phere.
Mr.. Hull in sending his personal
oeetinps to President Vincent Of the
Republic of Haiti, said: II think you
will agree that the perfection OF the
means of international communication
results in the perfection of mutual un-
derstanding between peoples" Mr..
TURNER, replying in French, sent
greetings to President Roosevelt and
said: "The growing perfection Of the
means of international communication
can only bring the peoples closer to-
pether. And the Haitian government
reioices that the Pan-American gov
ernments henceforth can count on still
another factor in the service Of their
ideas of solidarity and Of the develop
ment of their moral and material in
terests."
Others taking part in the ceremony,
which was held in Secretary Hull's
Office in Washington, were: Laurence
Duggan, chief, division of American
Republics; Ellie Lescot, Haitian minis
ter to the United States; William G.
Thompson, assistant to the vice-presi-
dent, American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company, and Roy G. Corder-
man, Washington Office Of the Amer
lean Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany. The participants at Port au
Prince, in addition to Mr.. TURNER,
were Harold D. Finley, American
charge d. affairs, and F. T. Madsen,
general manager of the West Indies
Telephone Company.
The weekday rate for three-min-
ute conversation between Washington
and any point in the Republic will be
$11.25.
The service will be handled over q
short-wave radio telephone circuit be-
tween American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company stations at Miami and
West Indian Telephone Company sta
tions near Port au Prince.
