GOD ALWAYS WORKS ON TIME

GOD ALWAYS WORKS ON TIME
In the midst of heather people,
three Hebrew boys, daring the govern
ment of their land, failed to bow down
to Baal, believing and depending on
their God for deliverance. The bows
were tried in court and no God was
there to touch the kings heart to give
them pardon. They were bound both
hands and feet and no God was there
to weaken the rope or to destroy their
prosecutors. The furnace was heated
far beyond its normal temperature and
no God was there to chill the fire. The
boys were thrown in-"Behold, / threw
in three and | now see four walking
about the flames, and fourth looks like
the Son of Mantle God of Isaac,
the God of Jacob, the God of Abraham.
the God that always works on time.
Daniel waited on God; he knew not
what step in the crucial moment would
move God on His throne. There was no
miraculous manifestation of the power
Of God demonstrated at the time of his
entry into the den. 1t appeared as if
Heaven was silent-as if God had hid
den himself. But as Daniel stepped
into the den he found the God whom
he served working on time.
AS Moses was leading the Israelites
away from Pharaoh, no God checked
the speed of Pharaoh or increased that
Of the host of Moses; no God blinded
Pharaoh's army or placed any obstruc-
ton in its path. The army kept on
gaining and gaining until Moses be-
came cut off by water. About to be re-
captured, about to have his cause de-
teated and his works put to shame, he
stepped down into the sea and God sent
an angel to trouble the water. Moses
with his host marched on through and
looked to see Pharaoh's army de-
stroyed. God, as always, works on
time.
God always works on time for those

BROTHERHOOD
By CHARLES STEELE

The coming of world Brotherhood
depends less upon high-sounding plat
forms and pronouncements than it does
upon our readiness to give to our bro
theirs their just due even in the smaller
affairs of life. Platforms are built
merely to stand upon. The testing time
comes when We travel along life's path
ways.
When enough of us catch the "vision-
splendid" of real brotherhood and
determine to live it out-making the
sacrifices demanded of us in shop and
office and store and home and church
then the day" will have arrived
There's a scripture passage to the
effect that righteousness exalted a
nation" This means justice, whatever
else may be included in the definition
No nation can be righteous until its
citizens are Just.

VETERAN LEADERSHIP

Outlining a general appraisal of a
candidate proposed for the presidency
OF a local militant organization. the
late Butler R. Wilson, himself vet
eran warrior, wound up by saying:
He is good fighter and he knows
how to fight" The present crisis
daily looms clearer as the greatest in
the country's history. 1t is not only
that munitions and the formation of
armies must be speeded to save demo-
cracy but that the entire nation must
be ready to defend its very existence
as an independent state. For Hitler
has declared that he is out to DESTROY
all the "pluto-democracies", and in that
category he Enthusiastically includes the
United States. The superiority of Ger
mans as mankind's master race, he
boasts, is legitimate authority for
their dominion over all the earth.
Labelling Der Feuhrer psychopath
does not diminish the threat any more
than it would halt the rampage of an
escaped lunatic armed with a knife or
a gun. A life and death struggle ap-
pears to be inevitable in the next chap
ter of the drama.
For colored America the world up-
heaval is fraught with great danger.
What Hitler has done to non-Aryans
in Europe clearly foreshadows what
would be the effect of Nazifed rule in
America. But besides the peril there
are also great opportunities. They are
to be faced with wisdom, patriotism
and sacrifice, otherwise the possible
benefits to accrue will be lost. 1t is a
time for straight thinking. There
must be no mistakes made in strategy:
action to be effective must be well
reasoned out and directed within the
framework of the rules and regulations
that bear on the objective. One mis-
take resulting from rashness or ignor-
ance not only causes confusion and
embarrassment among all supporters
but also holsters the conceit and the
intolerance of the enemy. 1t is i'm
perative, therefore, that seasoned
leadership be upheld. The knowing
how to fight" is a veterans knowledge.
The prestige of having fought success
fully spreads confidence. Some of the
older leaders remain at the front; but
others are in self-imposed retirement
from which the need of experienced
leadership and the prospect of racial
gains beckon back to the wars.
The Race has great stakes in the
present emergency. Either we shall
lose everything or make substantial
winnings.

Originally, the Church was a
Brotherhood Including all classes
and conditions, it became a factor in
the lives of men that caused them to
suffer and to sacrifice as nothing else
has ever done. 1t literally turned the
world upside down. 1t brought in a
new standard of ethics. However it
may have failed because of human Iimi-
tations, it has done more to usher in
freedom than all other agencies COM
bined.
Real brotherhood cannot exist with
out love as wide as the world. There
can be no brotherhood without the
Fatherhood of God. The Fatherhood
of God implies a care for every one of
his children, regardless of race, creed,
color or economic condition. He sends
his rain upon the just and upon the
unjust. His provision is for all.

.BUSSES ADOPT
 NEW SCHEDULE
Eleven Trips Daily on North Main St. Offered
 Daily From Now On

Naugatuck, Oct. 10 For the convenience of North Main street residents, eleven trips on the North Main street route will be made by north bound Naugatuck- aterbury busses of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company, 1t was learned today from Warden Leo Brophy. The new schedule goes into effect today, he said.
 Because of the detour on the Wa terbury road, only New Haven-Wa- terbury busses of this company, which pass through here every 30 minutes, have travelled over North Main street. The regular Nauga- tuck Waterbury busses go via Wa ter street to Church to Bridge to Spring street and thence to Platts Mills.
 However now il trips will be made by the Naugatuck- Waterbury husses via North Main street to Prospect street. East Waterbury road and Waterbury. This will mean that residents of North Main street won't have to wait half an hour to get busses.
 The schedule for these trips as announced follow: 6:18, 7:28, S:28, all in the morning; 1920, 1928, 2:28, 3:28, 4:28, 5:2e, 5:45, 6:l5, all D. m,
 Teh New Haven Waterbury busses will continue on their regular sched- ule. Because of the tonnage of the busses is more, with passengers, than the Union City bridge can stand, the bridges capacity being seven tons, the Water street route for most of the Naugatuck- Waterbury busses had been adopted.

Many Fall Bulbs Offered In Spite Of War Blockade
Keep This Bulb Planting Dept Chart VIII Be Helpful to You
dANY FALL BULBS OF.

MANY FALL BULBS OF- ..
 Only bulbs produced in the Unit ed States and the British empire are available for planting in gar- dens of this country this fall. Yet under the pressure of necessity 6 remarkable variety is being offered by the dealers and by reducing quantities planted, spring garden pictures may be provided in much the normal manner without great ly increased expense.
 Especial care should be taken in planting the precious bulbs, to see that they have every chance of success, and play their full part in beautifying the garden. How deep should bulbs be planted?
 In general. about four times the diameter of the bulb. The beginner should not understand by this rule that precision measurement Is re- quired, and an inch more or less in planting a Darwin tulip bulb may mean the success or failure Of the flower.
 At the same time the planter would do well to see that his bulbs are planted approximately at the optimum depth. Tulips, for exam- pie, if planted much deeper than the recommended 5 to inches (above the top of the bulb) will probably bloom, but likely later than you expect. If planted less than the recommended depth, they may also bloom, and at the right time. But should the winter be an open one, with lots of freezing and thawing, shallOw-planted tulips are likely to be heaved entirely out. of the ground. They certainly will be risk.
 Some fall bulbs are not planted to a depth of four times their diameter. The madonna lily, usually a big bulb, should be planted only 3 or 4 inches deep. The crown inn periai, 8 large bulb, wants shallow planting, about inches. The be- ginner will find a chart of plant ing depths useful to refer to when the planting task is begun.
 If the ground in which the bulbs are planted has been newly spaded,

and Is quite loose, the depths should be increased an inch or so, to allow for settling, and because of the in- creased effect of frost heaving on newly turned soil. Also, late plant- ed bulbs, which have no opportu- nity to make roots before the soil freezes. may be set a little deeper, to protect them from frost action.
 Tulips should be set s to 6 inches deep. Narcissi need about the same depth from the top Of the bulb, but owing to the different shape and sometimes tho much larger size, the base of the bulbs is usually deeper than the tulips. Snowdrops and scillas should go down about 2 to 3 inches. Crocuses should have 2 inches of soil over them. The erythroniums need about { inches of cover. So does Fritillaria melea- gris Anemones for cold frame planting need only an inch of soil.
 The lilies need the deepest plant ing, and most of them can go as deep as to 10 inches with good results. The distance apart is rath- CT elastic, but in general 5 inches is the closest any of them should be planted.
