Points Way To Cooperation

Former Gov Bob Jones the approval of every
who believes in form of when he said
in the announcement of his candidacy:
This is time to surrender the constitutional func
tons of the legislative and judicial branches of
ment."
Mr.. Jones' during the time he governor recog
nized that under constitutional setup have three
branches of government - legislative, executive and ju
dical (They forth in that order in the U. s.
Constituon)
Mr.. Jones at no time during his tenure governor
tried to usurp the functions of the other governmental
branches.
To his credit it can be said he never assailed them
when differences of opinion On the contrary, he
worked out amicable understanding. He worked in
harmony and close cooperation with the state legislature
and state courts with the result that orderly and efficient
government obtained.
Our governmental gears should mesh smoothly in
times like the present.
We must have peace the home front may
stand united behind the fighting front.

Most of us tackled this garden idea with enthusiasm
We only it because of the patriotic aspects
but many also anticipated the enjoyment OF this type
of exercise the crop Of fresh vegetables which little

Now that the vegetables land the weeds IN many OF our
gardens have begun flourish of have lost our
enthusiasm and consider the garden tme-consuming

farm stands low prices and wonder 1t Is worth all that
backbreaking effort produce few mealsfu OF vege-

So it is time to turn on the patriotism the en-
joyent the garden is waning must remember that
the need for the Victory Garden plan still great

Budget or Bust
BY LYTLE HULL

Over here we don't want to be
regimented-eithe by ourselves or
by outsiders. We even dislike the
sound of the word RECOMMENDATION.
But in wartime of course, a certain
amount of it is necessary, and the
American will grin and bear it in
this war just as well as he has in
past wars.
Also in times such as these we
are now entering, the RECOMMENDATION
Of dollars is as essential as the regi-
mentation of people; for dollars are
d-blooded fish and will do you

move.

way imitation.
Any such revolutionary control
necessarily creates a certain
amount of economic confusion, and
in order to adjust our dollars to
these bewildering changes we must

which takes into consideration the
fact that infants have different food

1t is asking quite lot Of baby
