Removal of Tonsils Held
Needless in Many Cases

Dr. Albert D. Kaiser Of Rochester,
N Y. told pediatricians Of the
American Medical association re-
Gently that tonsils were not as great
q menace to a child as had been
suggested frequently and in many
cases were operated on for no good
reason. From the study Of 400
children over a period Of 10 years he
reached the conclusion that the prac-
tice of removing tonsils and ade-
noids automatically. which has re-
suited in tonsillectomies on almost
sc per cent of the urban children
in the United States and England.
was without foundation.
DR. Kaiser said that the common
cold. with its unpleasant compiled
tons. had influenced physicians and
parents frequently to remove tonsils
and adenoids hoping that fewer colds
would develop. His findings. how.
of this. While the children who had
been operated on. one half Of the
total number. had fewer colds in
the first three years. they actually
had more colds in the next seven.
1T is quite likely" he explained.
that the removal Of the adenoids

the children advanced in years the

He expressed the opinion that

Camouflage is a subject which is
very much more important in mod

very much. The main idea OF

tion look exactly like the surround
ing terrain, SO that when the enemy
planes take pictures no guns or
changes in terrain will take place
in the picture. We have motor in
structions every few days, which are
very interesting to me.

PARTY HERE

On Tuesday evening, June IT, the
oranges of Morgan county are spon-
soring grange workers party
which will be held at the M. & NJ

DONALD HAM WRITES
ABOUT CAMP LIFE

Dear Ray:-This being Sunday,
I'll drop you a few lines, telling you
a little about camp life here, which
is I suppose about the same as in
any other camp of which you have
read. On Sunday there is not much
activity around the camp. Yesterday
and today there were quite few
fellows who went to Raleigh and
Fayetteville, so today it looks sort
of deserted around our battery.
Beginning last Wednesday we get
every Wednesday afternoon off. This
certainly was very agreeable with
everyone. Last Friday, Memorial
services were held in the gun park,
which is short distance from ou,
barracks. About 10000 men listen
ed to the service which certainly
was very impressive. Brigadier Gen
eral FRANKIE, who is in command o1
the Field Artillery Replacement
Center, made very interesting ad
| dress. He stated that a short dis
tance from the camp at Greensboro
during the Revolutionary war, Corn
wallis was defeated by Genera
| Green. During the Civil war also
there was battle fought on the
reservation which is marked by
many graves. He brought out the

Progress in World Missions, Acts
13:13-14:28, for Sunday, June Is:
Paul having preached a forceful
sermon in Antioch drew crowds the
following Sabbath when he was to
speak again.
v. A. "And the next Sabbath al
most the whole city was gathered
together to hear the Word of God"
Paul sought to convert the people of
cities since the cities rule the world
morally. Note that the real attrac-
tiOn was not Paul but his message
namely, the word of God. 1t may
be that the decline in church at
tendance today is due to the fact so
many other things than the word of
God are discussed from the pulpits.
V. As. "But when the Jews saw
the multitudes, they were filled with
envy, and spake against those which
were spoken against Paul, contra
dieting and disappearing" The Jew
ish leaders feared the loss of their
prestige because of Paups popular
ity. Jealousy reveals the weakness
OF the spiritual life. These leaders
would deny the Messiahship and
resurrection of Jesus in which act
they blasphemed.
V. 46. "Then Paul and Barnabas
waxed bold, and said, 1t was neces-
sary that the word of God should
first have been spoken to you; but
seeing you put it from you, and
judge yourselves unworthy of ever
lasting life, 10, we turn to the Cen
tiles" The strength Of Paul and
Barnabas was seen in the fact that
they would not be intimidated Ac-
cOrding to Gods plan and the fitness
of things the Jews were given the
first chance; and since they did not
choose this way of salvation, they
were pronounced unworthy. Here
was the turning point of Christian
ity and the place where Paul be-
came the church's leader.
v. AZ. "For SO the Lord hath
commanded us, saying, I have set
thee to be a light of the Gentiles,
that thou shouldest be for salvation
to the ends of the earth" Paul
here quotes Isaiah so that these
leaders are self-condemned. It is
good to quote scripture rather than
argue in matters Of salvation.
V. 48. "And when the Gentiles
heard this, they were glad, and
glorified the word of the Lord; and
as many as were ordained to eternal
life were saved" The Gentiles,
freed from the Jewish restrictions,
were offered full fellowship in the
church. There was no class distinc-
ton. 1t is the will of God that all
should be saved, but only such re-
ceive God proffered salvation as are
willing to break with the world and
cast in their lot with God and his
divine purposes.
v. 40. "And the word of the
Lord was published throughout all
the region" It is evident that in
various places Paul made cities the
centers of his activities from which
he evangelical the surrounding
country.

w. LEE O'DANIEL FOR
u. S. SENATOR

Somewhere near the turn Of the
century, child born at Malta was
christened w. Lee O'Daniel. Con-
scientious parents watched his every
act and endeavored to teach him
the difference between right and
wrong. A few years later the boy
and his parents left Malta and NOV
ed to the southwest.
Two years ago that native Of
Ohio-now mature man with a
soft voice and a pleasing personali-
ty-rounded up slap stick band
and campaigned the state of Texas
as a candidate for governor. With
the slogan "Pass them Biscuits to
Me Pappy," O'Daniel was elected
chief executive of the Lone Star
state
Today Maltas favorite son is run
ming for u. S. senate-seeking the
position made vacant by the death
of the late great Senator Morris
Sheppard 1t is Cinderella story,
which proves that America is still
the land of opportunity.
The Texas delegation in Washing
ton is politically neutral in respect
to the governors candidacy. They
regard him as an able politician,
expect him to win, and when and if
he is elected senator they are ready
to cooperate with him in Washing
ton.
Yet it is a funny thing, a major
ity of the Texas delegation have had
little or no contact with Governor
O'Daniel They know him only by
reputation. The governor has new
er been in Washington during his
tenure of office and few Texas mem
bers of congress have had occasion
to deal with him personally.
Nevertheless Governor O'Daniel
probably will be the next junior Z.
S. senator from Texas. This is said
despite the fact he is opposed by the
nationally known congressman, Mar
tin Dies; the great Texas Atty
General Gerald Mann and Congress
man Lyndon Johnson, who has the
blessing of President Roosevelt.
Several others are in the field, but
their chances are slim.
Texas has fallen in love with
O'Daniel. They love him for his
excellent administration of state af-
fairs. They love him for his sim
cerity. They love him for his re-
ligious approach to important prob
lens. They love him because he
has rightly dismissed Ohio from
his thoughts and now looks upon
Texas as "the great state

V. so. But the Jews stirred UP
the devout and honorable women,
and the chief men of the city, and
raised persecution against Paul and
Barnabas, and expelled them out OF
their coasts" These devout women
were Gentle proselites and likely
socially prominent. Here was fine
strategy since good women have un-
usual influence; this was like the
enlisting of prominent women to re-
peal national prohibition.
V. 81. "But they shook off the
dust of their feet against them, and
came unto Iconium." This was a
customary testimony against oppos-
ers. Just to say nothing and walk
away is often the best way of deal
ing with an enemy.
V. 81 "And the disciples were
filled with JOY and the Holy Ghost
The greatest joy is the gift Of eter-
nal life through personal salvation
attained through Jesus Christ. Pro
found experiences are open to such
in that they may receive the gift OF
the Holy Spirit.
v. 26. "For ye are all the chill
dren of God by faith in Jesus
Christ" Paul is here writing prob
ably to all the churches ablished
on his first tour. All Jews and Cen
tiles are saved in the same way.
V. q. For as many of you as
have been baptized into Christ have
put on Christ" Baptism is the pro-
fession of Identification with Christ
in his sufferings, death and life.
In baptism we "put on Christ"
which is one of the church's recog-
nized professions of saving faith.
v. 28. "There is neither Jew nor
Greek, there is neither bond nor
free, there is neither male nor fe-
male; for ye are all one in Christ. !"
Christianity draws together into one
fellowship all sorts and conditions
of men all recognized as members
of Gods family reaching back to
Abraham.

UNCLE SAM - GOOD NEIGHBOR

History will record the good
neighbor policy of Secretary Hull as
a great achievement. For many
years the United States was the
surly bully of the. Western Hemis-
phere. Since this administration
came into office, Cordell Hull, as
Secretary of State, has done away
with dollar diplomacy The United
States is now good neighbor to Mex
leo and republics of Central and
South America. The United States
can be a better neighbor We must
have real understanding of how
the people of the South American
republics feel toward us. We want
their loyalty and their friendship
We must continue our reciprocal
trade agreements with the repub
lies of South America and liberaliz
these agreements. This nation
should set up the machinery for Tho
development of cultural and eco
nomic relations of every kind be
tween the United States and tn
nations to the south of us. The pro
paganda machine of Hitler must b.
beaten. Propaganda has become on
of most powerful weapons of wal
Our propaganda should therefore
be much greater in volume and SUI
perior in quality to our present
output. If this makes necessary for
the Government itelf to engage in
radio broadcasts, then this should be
done. Mexico and Argentina have
nothing in common except the Ian
guage. Brazil is as different from
Costa Rica as Italy is from Bulgaria.
We must consider these facts. Con-
gress and officials in the state de-
partment should intelligently and
tactfully promote western hemis-
phere solidarity and unity. We COW
ct no part of South America.-Ste-
