HAVE PATIENCE!
BY Ruth Taylor

wait on the Lord and he will
save thee"
Patience is one of the most diff
ficult virtues to acquire, but once
its lesson has been learned, it is
the most soul satisfying. To be
patient is to have self control plus
faith-to know that in the last an
alysis, "all things work to good
for them that love God"
Think of those whom you adj
mire most, and you will see how
this quality stands out. 1t was pa
thence and the ability to wait that
enabled Washington to hold out
long after the more Jealous and
daring of his colleagues felt that
the game was up. 1t was patience
and the ability to wait that car
ried Lincoln through the darkest
hours of the Civil War. And so has
it been from time immemorial-
with little people as well as the
great-with un-sung heroes as
well as with those renowned in
song and story.
But patience does not mean just
sitting down to wait. To wait pa
tiently requires constructive act
ion. 1t means careful consideration
of the end you wish, and the TAX
ing of every step to bring that
end about with due regard for
others. 1t means doing your duty
day in and day out, working hon.
estly and sincerely at your daily
tasks, and fitting yourself bodily
and mentally for the day when
your ship comes in. When that has
been done, it means waiting pa
tiently and cheerfully and working
while you wait.
And this applies not only to the
individual but to all groups within
the nation and to the nation itself
The changes, the reforms we al
want to see made require patience
and waiting while we are actively
trying to bring them about.
There are many sincere reform.
ers who are vociferously advocat.
ing all sorts of panaceas. Destroy
the DID," they cry. Anything is
better than what we have"
But this is not the American
way. Reform means to remake, tt
reshape to break. In our i'm
patience we too often feel that tt
reform situation we must chang,
it completely overnight. We cal
wipe out all abuses in America
We can reform our country int
the Utopia of which we dream
if we will work together and util
ize the thought and brains ant
abilities we already possess. W.
can do this if we work together
possessing our souls in patience
Neither Utopia nor Rome wa.
built in a day.

Somewhat Expressive
BY Harold HOlifield

Oft was sort of warm here in
Seattle last Wednesday.
elm fact, it was hot.
ePeople complained, staggered,
and cursed.
eThey said they didn't like the
heat.
eThey said "Whew" and sweat
ed.
0Some visitors said mean things
about Seattle's Chamber of Com
merce.
0They referred to their pam
phlets about "air conditioned"
weather.
eLemonade stands and soda pop
dispensaries flourished.
$50 did "KooI' theaters.
ePeople hunted for the shade.
Oft was hot there, too.
eSeattle's salt water beaches
grew crowded.
eSeattle's salt water beaches
stayed crowded until way late in
to the night.
SSome stayed all night.
eSome didn't.
SThey said it was hot enough
to fry eggs on the sidewalk.
eThey didn't fry eggs.
eThey did not want fried eggs.
eSome didn't feel like eating at
all.
ESQ they drank pop.
eTrolley coach and bus riders
discovered they could not pull
down the shades to keep the sun
out of their faces.
0There are no shades in the
busses.
eThey could only sit and cook.
Oft was a pretty warm day all
right.
SIt was not so bad, though.
0The thermometer only tapped
100 degrees.
9But for Seattle, history has
been made.

USES FOR METALS
 IS NOW SOUGHT
.OPM Wants Local Manu= lecturers to Offer
 Affadavits

Local manufacturers using raw materials high on the priorities lists of the Office of Production Manage ment, have received letters from the suppliers of essential metals request ing affdavits concerning the uses to which the materials are being put.
 It is only through the agency of such aff1davits, demonstrating to what extent the precious metals are being used for defense purposes, can suppliers get priorities ratings, even for the most sorely needed sinews of national defense.
 Local plants are asked to furnish figures showing the percentage of defense output during June, 1941. For their convenience affidavit forms are attached, and manufac- turers are advised to keep complete files of these records, in the event that periodic checkups are inaug- urated by the OPM.

The preeminence of first mention In the directory goes to the ABC Chemical O., which practically has the cards stacked in its favor to begin with.
 Individual Names
 Individual names range from Mrs. Florence Aaronson of Cooke street, to Rev. John. J. Zyskowski, assist ant pastor of St. Stanislaus Kostka church. Father Zyskowski was hard pressed for last place honors by zyber Zyko of North Main street. Naugatuck entries range from Aardelekian to zwyno.
 The Smiths, as might be expected, lead all other families with 299 (count them) separate entries in the directory, in addition to some 125 wives listed with their husbands, Contrary to all expert opinion, John is not the commonest name for boy babies born to Smith families. There are ten John Smiths in Waterbury more than the seven Charleses the seven Franks, the seven James, es, the eight Roberts, and the eight Frederics and Fredericks (remem- Der the Fred Smith clubO, more even than the nine Georges, but less than the 16 Williams. There are, in fact, no lss than five William H. Smiths in this fair city, which must cause some confusion among postal authorities and others.
 162 Browns Present
 There are, a perusal of the early pages of the directory reveals, no fewer than 162 Browns in Water bury. Here again, John Browns are less common than Williams six as compared with twelve, to be spe- cific. Waterbury boasts an Andrew Brown, but his middle initial is H., not T., as in the case of his illus srious namesake of radio fame.
 There are 190 JohnSons, 115 Joneses, 178 Kellys (sixteen of them named John) and-Well, you can compile your own lsit of statistics.
