"In the beginning God created the Heaven
and Earth" Significantly those words de-
note the beginning of time, as well as the
beginning of the printing industry, which
this year is celebrating the 500th anniver-
Sary of its founding.
When Johann Gutenberg first carved out
wood type, he printed Bibles. Then other
books were made and the lords in the castles
had them burned. They were pagan, they
said. They were reprinted, however, and
soon there were too many to burn.
From the Bible and the classics of that
early day, printing developed, and it took an
other turn for the welfare of man. Men
thought strange thoughts, and dreamed
strange dreams. Then these words came
forth: eve hold these truths to be self-evi-
dent, that all men are created equal, that
they are endowed by their Creator with GER
tain unalienable rights, that among these are
Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness"
Through the printing industry the world
grew smaller, superstition was overcome and
the people learned more about their neigh
bors. This should have created good will
among the people of the earth. School books
were printed, and their use became greater
and greater. And through them we acquired
an education.
Today, we read that small nations are
sorely beset, their freedom taken away and
their existence threatened. War is one OBJ
stacle which printing through education has
been unable to overcome for man has not
learned to live in peace with his neighbor
Some day, in the not too distant future, men
through yet to be acquired enlightenment,
may proclaim the peace of the world forever
Then can we truly say, "and there was light"

right. It Is Judas who describes
the forgotten might and cruelty of
Tyre, whose gods demand human
sacrifice. And 1t is Joseph who
paints the picture of the common
people in Jerusalem, who witnesses
the wonders of healing in the ill
lit taverns of the herdsmen and at
the home of Simon the Leper.

Forged Checks;
Lands In Jail
Caledonia-Verne Handy is being
held in the county Jail while an
investi cation is being made con-
corning his recent activities. Han
dy came to the Jail to procure
a bunk for the night. While talk
ing to Sheriff Kelly, he complained
of being unable to cash a check in
Caledonia. The sheriff demanded
the check, then started an investi-
CATION, which disclosed that Handy
was to handy with the pen. His
police record shows three convic-
tions for forgery in the state of
Wisconsin.

on his way home one evening rec
entity when he noticed the neigh

duck, it's body covered with ice.
The bird, evidently one OF a flock
flying over, had been blinded by
the ice and forced to earth. The
duck will have home in the Con-
nor basement until it has recovered
enough to be released.

Speeds To Blaze
At Own Home

At Own Home
lexandria-Driving fire truck
to a fire in his own home was a
new experience for Lou H. Cordes.
The fire which started from gas
stove had gained little Roadway
and was burning between the kit
chen walls. But quick work on the
part of the firemen extinguished
the blaze before much damage was
done.

African Dialects
Are Studied By
Nazi Germans

WASHINGTON -(ANP)-In NaZi
Germany, classes are being held in
foreign languages, particularly the
African dialects, with especial en-
phasis on that widely used dialect
Suaheli or Swahili. Informed per-
sons believe this to be an indication
that the Germans are confident OF
a return of the African colonies
or that it is another phase of the
fifth column activities for which
the Nazis have become world fa-
nous. Glasses consist of men and
women, taught by a proficient in
Structor who uses the visual
method of instruction giving the
Swahili terms for the equivalent in
German
Three classes are reputedly very
popular with the Nazis, the students
ranging through all ages

Facts About
Enlistment

NEW YORK-(SNS) - In
a note sent to Secretary of
War Henry L. Stimson this
week, the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of
Colored People launched a
vigorous protest over the vio-
lent treatment accorded a Ne
gro teacher by officials in a
Charlotte, N. c., army re-
cruiting office when he
sought to obtain information
about the enlistment of Ne
groes in the army.
AccC riding to the NAACP,
Edward H. Brown, a teacher
at a local Negro high school
in Charlotte, sought to find
out why several of his for
mer pupils had been denied
an opportunity to enlist in the
army at the local recruiting
station, situated in the Char
lotte, N. c., post office. His
refusal to accept the state
ment that "No more N
were being accepted" with
out further explanation,
brought him a severe beating
at the hands of the local re-
cruiting men.
