It's strange, but did you ever
notice you can always find time to
do the things you really want to do,
Map placed in the Bluffton News
window by the local Defense Council
showing the town divided into dis
trlcts with their respective fire war
dens. It's attracting a lot of at
tention.
To Ed Reichenbach, Bluffton post
master went the first of the new
souvenir picture postcards of Bluff
tons postoffice building put on sale
this week. The card was mailed to
the postmaster with compliments of
Armin Hauenstein of Sidney's drug
shop where the cards are being sold.
Thru one of the strange quirks of
the original tire rationing regula-
tions it developed that beer trucks
were eligible to get new tires and
tubes while ministers were not. The
working out of the regulations from
this particular angle aroused more
than a little caustic comment. Now,
however, it's all fixed up and clergy
men are moved up to rate equal
with beer trucks in the eyes of ra-
tioning officials.
THE Office of Price Administra-
tion has informed the Ohio State
Council of Defense that "a vehicle
operated by regularly practicing
minister, priest or rabbi in the
course of their religious calling" is
eligible for new tires and tubes. The
regulations, however, stipulate that
no certificate shall be issued unless
the vehicle is actually used in course
of the minister's religious duties,
principally for that purpose and is
essential for the performance of
such duties.
And while we're on the suject,
the Bluffton tire dealer is in a
tough spot. He was subject to
federal floor tax on his stock and
now he is assessed county tax for
the tires in his inventory together
with interest on any bank loans he
may have incurred in making his
original investment-and prospects
for Iquidating his stock are none
too bright.

Radiant Living
WHEN UNDER
ATTACK
By
Rev. Charles Milton Griffith

lit is hard to keep your mouth
shut when somebody is hurting
false accusations thick and fast at
you.
Yet this is just what Jesus was
able to do.
When false charges, supported
by lying witnesses, were made
against Him before the High
Priest, He remained perfectly calm,
and maintained such a mastery
poise that the High Priest was as
tonished.
"Answerest thou nothing?" he
Numbered at Jesus.
But, as the Scripture declares:
"He held His peace and answered
nothing"
The reason why Jesus was able
to maintain such a mastery poise
was because He was in vital touch
with God
By an agoniing prayer in the
Garden of Kethsamane the night
before, He had won complete vic
tory over all the satanic forces
which were brought to bear against
Him.
We won that decisive victory
when He sincerely and decisively
prayed mot my will, but thine be
done"
From that moment on the battle
was no longer His. 1t was Gods.
In the place of that tortuous inner
conflict, Jesus was now pervaded
by divine peacefulness which even

ing an automobile without a steer
ing wheel.
Yet, Lit. Clayton C. Jerome, u. S.
Marine Corps pilot, once brought
his plane to safe landing after his
stick broke off at the socket.
Then that reckless daring, tradi-
tional to Marines, came to the fore
and he decided to try flashing the
stick to the side socket with his
trouser belt and necktie. The cour-
ageous Marine worked for As min
utes, while his plane completely out
of control, went through every
trick known to aviators.
Finally he decided his emergency
improvisation might be good
enough for a landing. AS he
brought the ship close to the earth
it was necessary to keep his head
deep in the cockpit as his hand held
the stick steady. When the plane
hit the ground the first time, it
bounced high in the air.
1t looked as if a serious crash
was inevitable.
FITTING all his skill as pilot
against the crazy antics of the
plane, the plucky Leatherneck on
his second attempt made one of the
most miraculous landings recorded
in the annals of flying history.
The Navy Department said 1t.
Jerome exhibited "great resource
fulness" and deserved high COM
mendation" for his bravery.
Jerome is now 1t. Col. Clayton

N Valentines Day is a good time
to capture it.
Young people like an old-fash-
toned party with hearts and cupids
in evidence, and If permitted to do
their own planning, will devise in
teresting decorations and games.
One young girl created charming
effect by decorating the house with
hearts and cupids cut from red
cardboard.
She began her party with heart
hunt, using tiny candy or paste
board hearts, and she gave as
prize for the greatest n u m b r
found, heart-shaped index for
telephone numbers.
She brought the old-time game of
post Office up to date by limiting
time in the post office" to fifteen
seconds measured by stop watch,
and demanding forfeit for over
time, bushes, dishevelled hair, col
lars awry, or any other evidence
of Cupid's entanglements.
Writing Valentine verses kept
the guests busy for another fifteen
minutes, the gentlemen addressing
theirs to some lady of the party,
and vice versa. A book for dates"
was a suitable prize for the best.
Refreshments
These were served buffet style,
and the table was decorated to look
like an old-fashioned valentine. 1t
was covered with lace cloth. Tall
rose tapers furnished the light. In
the center was a heart-shaped
Valentine Cake surrounded with
little heart-shaped cakes, iced in
white and decorated with red candy
or cherry hearts.
The coffee service was arranged
on a second tray, the hot coffee in
a big silver pot, with medium sized
cups. A fresh supply of coffee was
made from time to time to insure
the brilliant "Flavor-lift" which
coffee contributes to the success of
party refreshments.
