whatever she wants with no cost to
herself. For example, in France
the banks arc required TO accept
the German paper mark at a rate
of 20 francs. It's really worth

an print unlimited quantities of
these marks, and so, by requiring the
French to accept them, they initiate
the currency.

CHRIsTIAN sCIENcE CHuRCHEs

Christian Science Church Service
Report for Sunday. December 20,
1910.
Subject: CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.
Golden Text: Matthew 13:33-The
kingdom of heaven is like unto lea
ven, which a woman took, and hid in
three measures of meal, till the
whole was leavened.
A Bible Citation from the Lesson
Sermon: jeremiah 1877, 14-Blessed
is the man that trusteth in the Lord,
and whose hope the Lord is. IA. Heal
me, o Lord. and l shall be healed;
save me, and l shall be saved: for
thou art my praise.
COrrelative from the Textbook,
Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy:
Whoever would demonstrate the
healing of Christian Science must
abide strictly by its rules, heed
every statement, and advance from
the rudiments laid down. There is
nothing difficult nor toilsOme in this
task. when the way is pointed out;
but self-denial. sincerity. Christian
ity, and persistence alone win the
prize, as they usually do in every
department of life. The power
of Christian Science and divine Love
is OmnipOtent. 1t is indeed ade-
quate to unclasp the hold and to
destroy disease, sin, and death.
Milford chronicle., 1940-12-27
Aggressor Technique

Promoters of state socialism in
duced the Federal government to
spend hundreds of millions of dol
lars for two hydro-eIectric projects
on the Columbia River to produce a
great surplus of power in a territory
which has been for years one of the
most completely electrified in the
United States, and in which con-
sumers have enjoyed power rates far
below the national average. Bonne-
vile dam is one Of these projects.
Proponents of socialized power have
done everything possible to encour-
age towns and districts to usurp the
business of the private companies
which have long served this area.
The people of Oregon have con-
sistently refused to vote themselves
into debt in order to establish peo-
pies utility districts (PUDs) to use
Bonneville power, for the simple
reason that Oregon communities
have had power service for fifty
years and enjoy low rates without
being saddled with a public debt.
Also, many of them honestly resent
a tax-subsidized, tax-exempt agency
ruthlessly usurping the business OF
private citizens.
This does not please the power
politicians. So now, in order to force
public ownership of electricity in the
Northwest, they say an amendment
of the Bonneville Act by Congress is
needed to permit it to acquire gen.
Grating as well as transmission ia
eilities' of private companies and
resell them to towns and districts.
The Bonneville Administrator says
this would avoid all the controversy
we are having now. 1t would be
merely a device to turn back the
facilities to the public" In order to
do this it is proposed that the RFC !
lend funds to PUDs or cities to ac-
quire distribution facilities. Inl
other words, if the people refuse to |
vote themselves into debt for a SER
vice they have without debt, the
power politicians are going to try
10 force socialized power another
way-by creating a Federal power
the people will have to
accept
To any fair-minded person this Is
4 disgraceful spectacle Of an ag-
gressor power, not satisfied with the
7ote decision OF local community,
seeking to bend that community to

policy is repugnant to any independ-
INT, self-governing people.

FARM FAMILY PLANNING
WILL HELP DURING I94I

Farm families in Delaware car
look forward to higher gross in.
comes in 1871. Miss Louise r
WhitcOmb, home management spe.
cialist for the Delaware Agricultural
Extension Service of the University
of Delaware, predicts that the in
crease in industrial activity, stimu-
lated by the war abroad and the de-
fense program at home, will create
greater demand for many farm pro-
ducts.
There is one side to this picture
OF Delaware farm family living in
1871 which cannot be ignored" says
Miss WhitcOmb with higher urban
wage rates in sight, there will be
higher bills for farm labor. And
farm operating expenses will un-
dOubtedly rise too"
The farm family that studies price
trends will make its dollars go fur
ther next year. Probably but little
more than usual needs tO-be budget
ed for the table since only small in
creases are expected in the prices of
the staple foods farm families buy.
Ready-made garments will be from
five to 10 per cent higher in price
next year. Costs of wool materials
and leather goods will rise consider
ably because of the demand for them
in defense programs. Price in
creases are expected for building
materials. transportation, amuse-
ments and toilet articles.
By bein gaware of the anticipated
economic changes. farm families will
be able to meet them with intelligent
planning. If there should be an in
crease of farm income. a family
would do well to start building tow
ard more security for itself perhaps
by paying debts. fixing up the home,
food habits and by getting
delayed medical attention.
In these days, more than ever be-
fore. a country is defended by its
whole population and the things that
influence the health and morale of
individual city and farm families
have a marked influence on the en-
tire nation.

EARLIER CLOSING DATE

Delaware farmers are urged to
make all possible headway on their
1871 Agricultural Conservation pro-
gram this winter, and plan ahead for
speedy carrying out of soil-building
practices in the spring by r. o.
Stelzer, State executive officer of the
Agricultural Adjustment Administra-
ton.
Stelzer says that the 1941 program
year will end June 80, 1871, two
months earlier than the 1910 closing
date.
In the past. the later closing date
has allowed farmers to defer COM
pletiOn of their Conservation pro-
grams until after harvest. They
have earned credit in the late sum-
mer and fall by applying lime and
phosphate and by seeding legumes
and winter cover crops.
But late legume and grass seeding
practices will not be possible this
program year. So a larger percent
age of the soil-building payments
must be earned through other prac-
tices. This is another reason for an
early start on the 1941 ACP pro-
gram.

TESTING ON INCREASE

Delaware poultrymen are making
rapid strides in reducing the amount
Of pullorum disease in their breeding
fiocks as shown by the fact that
while SS per cent of all flocks tested
in the State we're found free on the
first test in 1888, more than 49 per
cent were found free on the frst
test during the 1910 season.
H. L. Richardson states that Elm
terest in the testing work would
also appear to be increasing as indi-
Gated by the fact that $50 locks and
$4,000 birds were tested for the
season ending July /, 1910, as COM
pared with 442 flocks and 3Io0a
birds during the previous ysnr.
poultry specialist tor

Service, says that Sussex coxntv had
the largest number Of floeks tested
for the 1870 period, but that New
Castle county had the highest Per
centage Of pullOrum-fres focka.
