SPEAKS

WINSTON-SALEM Jan. 20.-R-
Alcee LeGendre, national vice COM
mander of the American Legion, told
the North Carolina post officers Of
the Legion tonight that for the last
20 years his organization had been
advocating strong defense of this ma
ton.
Now that the huge defense pro-
gram has been launched, he said, the
American people are solidly behind
it. Its service cannot be questioned,
he averred, if the people keep their
feet on the ground, not become hys-
terical and cooperate in every pos
sible way with the government. BY
pursuing the defense program cor
rectly and acting wisely, he said,
Americas can keep it's men out t
actual warfare.
LeGendre, of New Orleans, spoke
in the absence of Milo J. Warner, the
Legion's national commander.

lacquer coating, then clean and
polish thoroughly. The article is
then ready for a new coat. Use a

Keep Your Hands Clean
To Prevent Body Disease

Have you ever stopped to consider
the things that your hands may
touch in the course of an average
day-the hands of strangers as well
as friends, loose change, door
knobs, car straps, pencils, books, to
say nothing of the dishes in public
eating places and the plumbing fix
lures in public wash rooms?
Besides your own hands, how
many other hands have touched
these things, and how many of these
other hands were clean? Perhaps
you do not know, and perhaps it is
a good thing for your peace of mind
that you do not
But one thing you do know, be-
sides touching all these questionable
things, your hands also touch your
own personal belongings, your own
household possessions and food that
you and your family eat. Perhaps
they have touched your mouth.
The conclusion is obvious!
If you want to keep disease germs
from entering your body, first keep
your hands away from your mouth,
and second, keep them clean. Mi
crobes hate cleanliness and thrive
on carelessness, and there is no
surer way of getting rid of them
than the soap and water method.
One well-known complexion soap
that is gentle and fragrant is so in
expensive that it can be used by all
members of the family for all
cleansing purposes. The generous
sized cakes are French-milled, a
process of manufacture which
makes soaps last longer.
This soap cleanses thoroughly, re-
moving all the dirt and CRIME in
which germs thrive, but if is gentle
on the hands when constantly used
and luxurious with its spring bios
som fragrance

First Governor of Bahamas

The Bahamas first royal governor.
Capt. WOodes Rogers, when he came
to Nassau in 1918, had a greeting
quite different from that which was
given the duke of Windsor. Lined
up or the beach in all their finery
and gold lace and murderous looking
cutlasses and firearms, were hun
dreds of pirates who were making
Nassau their headquarters for raids
on Shipping in nearby waters. Gov
ernor Rogers. who had been sent by
King George ] to wipe out the pi-
rates nest, gave the villainous in
habitants the choice Of taking the
Oath OF Allegiance to the Crown or
leaving the islands. Those who re-
fused TO do neither were summarily
hanged and, outwardly at least,
law and order prevailed over Nassau.

Blowing Out Electric
Bulb Becomes a Reality

They laughed when DR.. Phillips
Thomas, research engineer, told
them he was going to blow out an
electric light.
But, when DR.. Thomas blew his
breath on the bulb, out it went!
This was only one of a number
of amazing demonstrations given by
DR.. Thomas, of the Westinghouse
Electric and Manufacturing compa-
ny, at an Electric club luncheon in
Los Angeles, recently.
Electricity's part in producing pre-
cision tools for the manufacture of
vital national defense equipment
was stressed by DR.. Thomas in his
talk, Electricity at Work"
Using a ''one-man laboratory, ="
the speaker demonstrated how ultra
violet radiation killed teeming mi
croscopic life. in a flash. "explod-
ing" its tiny victims.
Furthermore, he played a set of
electric chimes with a common
fashlight, and told of how the same
method could be employed to trans
NIT secret communications in war
time.
This can be accomplished, he
pointed out, by varying infra-red
rays in intensity with sound waves
of spoken message, transferred
invisibly over space, and then re-
converting them into sound waves
at the receiving end.
With a "strobogloW" lamp, DR..
Thomas demonstrated how a COM
plicated design appearing on a disc
whirling at the speed of 1900 revo-
lutions a minute could be made to
stand still"
While his aStounded listeners mar
veled at what they beheld, he went
them one better - increasing the
whirl of the disc to $500 r. p. m. s
and revealing still another de-
sign!

Checkened History

Although Nassau and the entire
group of Bahama islands have been
British down through history, they
were subject TO attacks and plumber
ings by the Spaniards for about 200
years of their existence. In 164l
New Providence, the island on
which Nassau is located, was tenn
porarily taken by the Spaniards.
After the English settled there in
l649.' the Spaniards again took pos
session. In 1866 the English took
over again but lost the islands to the
Spaniards in 1854. when Nassau was
destroyed In 1903 the French and
Spanish seized the islands and drove
out the settlers.
