aside. Through the cabinet minister
Campbell has the following powers
under the munitions and supply act:
He can have any business in Can
ada classified as a defense project
(under al of the acD. This gives
such business the privilege of not
being bound, in respect of such mat
ters as may be specified in the order,
by any obligation or limitation i'm
posed on that person (this includes
corporations) by, or by virtue of, any
other act, order, rule, regulation, by
law, contract, agreement, or any other
instrument affecting his functions or
obligations"
Just to sew things up the next sub
section reads:
ANY order made under this section
may be varied or revoked by a sub
sequent order of the minister" And
in practice that means Ford's man
Campbell.
Labor men on the U. S. side of the
border fear that the Industrial die
tatorship entrusted to the Ford inter-
ests by the Canadian government may
be taken as an example, with similar
anti-union personnel, if the U. S.
should become involved in war.
They recall that the secretary of the
Canadion CLIO, Charles H. Millard, was
arrested and is awaiting trial on bail
for remarks made in a priyate union
meeting. These remarks were less
severe than remarks on the same sub
ject made by the conservative opposi-
ton leader in the Canadion parlia-
ment.
Millard's trial is being held up be-
cause of the dominion elections now
in progress but it is feared that there
will be big crop of oppressive prose
cutions against leaders who insist on
labor's rights, after the politicians are
safely back in power.

By BEN BUCKLEY

For years now I have furnished
amusement talk and great deal OF
satisfaction to some of my more for
tunate relatives Success has smiled
upon them in a monetary way and
they stand amongst the elite of the
successful. | can't say how much of
man and womanhood they had to sac
rifice to obtain their desired goal as
| was never interested enough to fol-
low their path of success. But l am
satisfied that they literally crawled
and cringed for their overlords for
quite some time to obtain pat on
the head that lifted them to the ranks
of lordship.
For years now relatives have tried
to pound into my thick head as they
call it, the necessity of a monetary
success in life. Life, they tell me,
without the sheckels piled away to
assure you of a life of wine, women
and song is no life at all. And any
one that can't or won't obtain it or
endeavor to do so is just about the
lowest of the low in ambition and in
telligence Such person is a de-
generate and a throwback that some
times happens in our best families, l
am told l have been told by these
relatives that | am mentally and phys
ically lazy, that the world is full of
golden opportunities waiting to be
plucked like ripe cherries by anyone
who has the ambition to get up off
their backs and onto their feet and
gather them in. l have been told by
these relatives of mine that relief,
hard times, sickness and starvation is
caused by four-fifths of the worlds
population because they are just nat
urally too shiftless to move out of
their tracks into the path of pros
perity.
After hearing this kind of chatter |
for twenty-five years it commenced to
get under my hide. So I confounded |
them one day. | told them that I
had just come from church, which was
the truth and that the preacher had
said in his sermon, God is supreme.
God is goodness itself He knows all.
If you suffer sickness and death that's
Gods will. If you are ragged, hungry
and dirty that is also Gods will
Blessed be the poor for they are Gods
chosen children. 1t would be hard for
rich man to enter the kingdom of
heaven" Well that quotation slowed
them down for minute. 1t took them
about that long to swallow their
Adams apple and get their mouths
shut. So l thought | had them flab- /
bergasted and | swung at them again
with another question. | said, eff God {
knows that l am down and out and ,
don't know where the next meal is j
coming from, if He wanted me to have
it He would walk right up and say,
Here, Ben, are a couple of bucks. Go
get some flour Wouldn't He?"
didn't get any answer to that question
so l commenced to feel cockey and !,
| came right out and asked them if
they thought they were correct in all ;
of the things they had been telling
me for the last rs years. That golden
were everywhere for
anyone to pick UP that wasn't too lazy a
to bend their backs. And they said, l
yes, they knew they were. So l asked S
them if they believed in the Bible and d
what the preachers taught. They said, v

heyday of their own youth, had belonged to
the jazz age, and they could not realize that
the jazz age had passed into history. They
could not have believed that any young girl
could be made social outcast merely because
she had hinted at the dazzling gaieties of her
life in Chicago They could not have under
stood that this suggestion of mild indecorum
was not an asset to little Christine Deacon -
that it was, as matter of fact, very serious
handicap.
Certainly this was not the jazz age. The
Jazz age meant no more to Audrey and her
contemporaries than, say, the period of the
Restoration. Possibly it meant less, because
it had not yet crept into the high-school text
books. The m0res of that era would have been
quite as absurd to Audrey as pocket TASKS
and the high-length waistline. Her grand
parents indeed, would have been more able
to understand Audrey's point of view.
Il hope" she said, coldly, you don't really
admire girl like that!'
Gene answered her as her grandfather would
have answered her grandmother if not in
the same vernacular: ''Oh, no! None of these
fast James for me" he said.
Audrey, signing conrentedly. put Christine
Deacon out of her mind.
0HoRTLY, Audrey and her escort were follow
ing with vast interest the course of one
comedy, one extremely improbable drama,
newsreel and an animated cartoon. All these
offerings had become rather pleasing tumble
in their minds as they left the theater, and
were completely erased from memory by the
time they reached Milbank's drugstore and
soda fountain.
MIlbank's was the regular place to 60 after
a movie. 1t was not in the least surprising to

Mr. Reynolds stared at her. What do you
suppose is wrong with that girl? Could you
make anything at all of anything Audrey
said?"
Mrs. Reynolds thought.
mo-" she said finally. When Audrey
doesn't want to answer question she can
talk more and say less than anybody l ever
knew. She just said if girl doesn't get by,
she doesn't get by - and she, Audrey couldn't
be held personally responsible. But what can
sane person make out of that"
Apart from everything else, Mr.. Reynolds
admitted, I'm really kind of curious"
YES" Mrs. Reynolds said. I've thought
of everything - and can't think of any,
thing that's wrong with Christine Deacon"
She was mistaken. She had not thought of
everything. Yet, had she and Charles gone on
debating the problem for years, they would
not have come to the truth of the matter
AUDREY, in the meantime, had settled back
in the car.
well -" Gene began, nonchalantly.
What's new in your life?" Audrey sighed.
MY father and mother" she said.
Gene cast mental glance over the past
three or four days. As far as he could see,
they had been blameless. ''Yeah?" he said.
They've been sounding off," Audrey went
on YEARLY. well, it seems they want me to
be all pals with Christine Deacon you
know, that girl from Chicago 1t seems they
expect me to feature her - they want me to
take her right into the crowd!"
Genes vague apprehension had faded

'Of course" Audrey added, tolerantly, Il
didn't argue or anything. only told 'em the
whole idea was absolutely out"
christine wouldn't do for old Bingo
Cooper" Gene said. "Or would she?"
Audrey stiffened.
Certainly she wouldn't do for Bingo
Cooper! Why - You know perf'ly well what
IA bad influence She d be in general! Why,
you take Norma - she'd have fit if old
Bill Newman had anything to do with that
girl, because you know how Bill falls for
about any line he's been listening to! Right
away he'd start thinking maybe good old
Melville wasn't good enough for him or
something. But what feel, - heatedly -

sophisticated or anything like that, but what
feel is - aren't there limits?"
"Oh, sure -" Gene said, hastily. Sure
there are"
She looked at him, doubtfully, out of the
corner of her eye She did not really like to
discuss member of her own sex with
member of the opposite sex. There was always
some slight risk of misunderstanding. How
ever, the case of Christine Deacon was GER
tainly plain enough. Audrey had gone over
this case, in considerable detail, with Norma
Ramsay. These two social autocrats would
never betray contemporary to the adult
world, but they could decide, as matter of
policy for their own world, that there were,
indeed, limits -.
1t was precisely this point which was be-
yond the perception of Audrey's parents, who
had never really grasped the fact that Audrey
and her friends looked at life from pretty
stern and puritanical point of view. The
trouble was that Audreys parents, in the

RADIANT LIVING
Confidence In Guidance
By Rev. C. Nj. Griffeth
Pastor Methodist Church
RidgelY. Md.

RIdgely, Md.
If anybody ever needed Divine Guild
ance it was Shackleton and his starv-
ing party who were lost in the South
Polar region. Their only hope for
life lay in finding their way over froz
en- glaciers to their little hut of sup
plies seventy miles away. With use
less compass, the sun blotted out by a
continuous falling snow, their only
guide was the wind which they sup
posed and hoped, was coming from the
South.
With only one chance in thousand,
they tortured YEARLY along when one
evening the sun came out, and they
found themselves on the shores of
Commonwealth Bay. After recognize
ing their position they altered their
course and later found the little hut
of supplies.
"It is a curious thing" says Hurley,
who was one of the party, at is a
curious thing that during the whole
of that journey felt there was some
mysterious power guiding u.s.
The radiant man is always conf
dent of Divine Guidance. He opens
his Scripture and reads: "The steps of
a good man are ordered of the Lord;
and he delighteth in his way"
This Divine Promise brings him in
to closer touch with God. 1t assures
him of Divine control over his life.
It promises him that in every momen-
tous decision, in every critical posi-
ton, in every advanced undertaking,
he has the backing, the foresight, the
wisdom, and the purpose of the Di-
vine Guide.
Moreover, he knows that God is
taking delight in making his life
delightful!

- that tact means inslncerity and
= dishonesty, or that it is an un-
important quality. Refusing to culti-
vate it. they sometimes cause others

which might have been avoided.
A dictionary defines tact as mice
discernment of what is appropriate
to do or say in dealing with others;
peculiar ability to deal with others
without giving offense, or so as TO
win good will, especially In difficult
situations. delicate and sympa-
thetic perception, especially OF what
20 fit, graceful, or considerable under
given circumstances" A certain sur
face politeness may be simply the
result of intelligent control and &C
breeding, but the love that is unfail-
ing and truly graceful and consid-
crate at all times is based on the
understanding of God.
Tact is consideration, thoughtful
ness of others, ana it is closely re-
lated to ioving-kindness. 1t appreci-
ates the viewpoint of the other per-
son and tries to apply the Golden
Rule Matthew 7:12), "Whatsoever
ye would that men should do to you,
do We even so to them"
Tact may sometimes be shown In
simply refusing to do or say some
thing which. if said or done, would
accomplish no good. 1t may be shown
in speaking an encouraging word to
one who Is facing a difficult situa-
ton. 1t ma, be evidenced in an in
