They're sJeeps' to Public
But Poems to Soldiers

Those fast-moving little reconnais-
sance cars that have won a place in
Uncle Sans fighting forces may be
"jeeps" to the public, but they're
peeps" to the army.
And thereby hangs tale, accord
ing to Delmar G.. Roos, chief engi-
neer at the auto plant, who created
the standard design" jeep for
Americas fighting men.
In the army, he explains, the
name jeep applies to a larger We
hicle of the scout car type; but be-
cause some of the first $500 smaller
cars manufactured carried the mod
Ell marking &c. w. p" soldiers
dropped the middle initial and con-
tracted the name from "G.P." to
jeep. And it's been a source Of
trouble ever sincel In fact, there
are several other military weapons
known as jeeps-including small
airplane and an anti-aircraft detec-
tor device-and the confusion Of
terms became so great prior to U. S.
entry into the war that an army Of
ficer in Tennessee put ban on the
term.

If Planes Are Forced Down

Military aircraft, friendly or hos
tile, which may be forced down or
meet accidents in civilian areas may
be carrying live bombs or ammuni-
ton and should be strictly guarded
against molestation by unauthorized
persons.
Non military personnel having
knowledge of military airplane ac-
cident should report it Immediately
to the police, sheriff, or other local
law-enforcement authority.
Reports should give the location of
the accident, results to crew mem
ers, if known, and what assistance
has been given to injured personnel.
The police, on establishing identi-
ty of the aircraft, should notify the
nearest army air force station, field
or detachment. The police also
guard the scene of the accident until
arrival of army personnel. In an
aircraft accident, protection of the
scene is of great value to investiga-
ton.
In any event, warning should be
given to persons in the vicinity that
the airplane may contain explosives.

Efficient Ski Renair Kit

Two new items for use of ski
troops, repair tip and a repair
kit, have been developed by the
army. The repair tip, carried as
emergency equipment by one out
of every four to eight men, is made
of a light metal and fits any ski.
It is designed as a makeshift to
get ski trooper back to his post
when the tip of his ski has been
so damaged that it cannot be used.
The repair kit consists of bag of
tools for repairing skis which weigh
less than eight ounces. An impor-
tant tool is a wrench and pair of
pliers in combination. The wrench
will fit the nuts on the contraction
band, thin strip Of metal used to
hold split ski together.
Also in the kit are a file and a
countersink. The file is used to
cut off the metal edges of a dam
aged ski at the desired place. The
countersink is used to enlarge holes
along the metal edges of a ski, in
case large size screws must be used
in repairing the ski.

Early American Flag
Had Thirteen Stripes

The United States Flag which flew
over Fort McHenry in Baltimore
during the night of September 1914,
1914, when the British fleet was
bombarding the fort in the War of
1872, had Is stripes, eight red and
seven white. It was this flag which
inspired Francis Scott Key, a hos
tage on British frigate, to write the
Star-Spangled Banner.
The Continental congress, on June
IA, 1777, passed a resolution that the
flag of the United States contain 10
stripes and 10 stars, one stripe and
one star for each original state. On
January Is, 1894, after the admis-
sion of Vermont and Kentucky,
stripes and stars were increased to
is, but in 1918 congress ordered the
stripes to be returned to the original
IS and the stars to correspond in
number to the states.

Pale, Cool Colors

The revival of the American Fed
eral period is furnishing new tonic
for American interiors. This period
spanned the years between 1776 and
1920, and while the American
craftsmen were strongly influenced
by the English cabinetmakers of the
late 18th and early 10Th centuries,
they managed to impart distinct
American quality to their designs.
The American forms are simpler,
sturdier; the decoration is more re-
strained, the carving holder. The
people who lived then liked pale cool
colors on painted walls-gray, buff,
green, yellow, blue and white. They
also liked the patriotic scheme Of
bright red, bright blue and lots Of
white. Today these are being adapt
ed in off-shades as well as in true
flag colors.

MILK PRODUCERS ARE PLEAS
ED WITH MILK ORDER

Results of the Federal milk
marketing order in Philada. are
gratifying, the producers generally
receiving an increase for their APP
ril milk as compared with March,
commented o. H. Hoffman, Jr., gen.
eral manager of the Interstate
Milk Producers Cooperative, after
seeing the report of April prices re-
leased by the Office of the Market
Administrator. This order became
effective on April /, 1912, and the
final settlement for milk produced
during April is being made by
handlers in the area, following an
advance payment made late last
month.
Mr.. Hoffman stated that this in
crease in price occurred in spite Of
the fact that a downward price trend
is normal for this time of year, due
to larger supplies. It was attributed
to different method in the classi-
fications of milk and the elimination
of Class III, even though the Glass
l price was the same in April as in
March and there was reduction In
the Class II price,

Heart Disease Victims
Often Found Healthy

Some Of the most pathetic VIC
Tins of heart disease are those who
don't have IT,"
DR.. Howard West, president Of the
California Heart association, SO re-
ported at the annual symposium
held by the organization.
"Many people who haven't heart
disease think they have, and that Is
enough to ruin their lives" he ex-
planned.
even when patients do have a
bad heart" he continued, ''it is
much more important-and more
difficult-to treat the patients mind
first.
''In some instances, the most re-
assuring advice you can give a pa
tient is come back and see me in
about five years."
Doctors, he said, can advise how
to cure or alleviate the malady, "but
the main factor is the faithful CO.
operation of the patient, which is
more important than any medical
tion."
This cooperation, he stated, con-
sists in right diet, the proper amount
of exercise and of relaxation, and a
mind as free as possible from worry
and harrassments.
Two cardinal rules he listed as:
'Since As to go is the common
age for heart disease, learn how to
live before you are As so you will
avoid it.
"Find out early if your heart is
all right, and thus you may escape
certain types of difficulties of the
people who think they have heart
disease, and don't"

Michigan Building Bees

Old-fashioned building bees" to
encourage the improvement Of rural
shelter in the cut-over section Of
northern Michigan are being encour-
aged by the U. S. department Of
agriculture. The idea is to demon
strate to low-income farmers how
rundown properties can be i'm
proved at small cost when neigh
bors work together.
A companion plan calls for the
finding of part-time employment for
those farmers whose land cannot
adequately support the family.
Farmers will be encouraged to seek
outside income through part-time
employment in reforestation, in fire
control, and in numbering on public
ly or privately owned lands.

bring the proper increase. BY his
spiritual wisdom Jesus proved for
us that supply comes through spir-
itual thinking, and that no human
condition can deprive the right
thinker of anything he needs. 80.
In miscellaneous Writings" Mary
Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and
Founder Of Christian Science, states
Up. 307): "God gives you His spiritual
ideas, and in turn, they give you daily
supplies. Never ask for tomorrow: 1t
is enough that divine Love is an ever
present help; and if you wait, never
doubling, you will have all you need
every moment" What blessed as
surance this isl -.
A state of mortal thought which
would delay proper adjustment is
that one which boards material
things at the sacrifice of others we'll
being and comfort. Hoarding is an
act of selfishness, and deprives the
one who INDUCES it of his reliance
upon God, the source and substance
of all true supply. To hoard is to
admit shortage and limitation and
to invite their appearing. Those who
wish to abide by our Masters COM
mandments, "Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul, and with all thy
mind, and with all thy strength" and
"Thou shalt love thy neighbour as
myself" mark 1880, 81, will not
engage in the practice of limiting
their sense of good.
Let the one who is contemplating
future Inconvenience and losses turn
his thoughts to God, who is the Giver
and Protector of all good. Can any
thing change Gods universal plan?
Can Mind, which gives us daily sup
plies, ever cease in its production Of
ideas? Can good lapse into evil or
Love change into hate? No, the uni
versal law of Love can never be
touched by anything base OF I'M
worthy. Nothing can ever change
the uninterrupted continuity of
Spirit. Gods law is continually in
operation. Hence, whatever adjust
ment needs to take place is in indi-
vidual thinking, so that the human
may yield to the divine and Gods
omnipotence be demonstrated on
earth.
Gods law is a law of sufficiency.
1t does not take away from one to
give to another. He sis no respecter
of persons" (Acts 10:34), but He sup
plies all of His children with spir-
itual ideas, and all who will accept
them can demonstrate daily supply.
Jesus fed the multitude and there
was food enough and to spare, "and
they took up twelve baskets full of
the fragments, and of the fishes"
mark 6:43). This experience proved
that God not only supplies our needs
but supplies them abundantly. As
thought is adjusted to Gods law of
universal harmony, the beliefs of
limitation and shortage will yield to
a broader and increasing embodiment
of spiritual ideas. :. Tho Christian

List S Symptoms, Signs of

generally recognized, the subcom-
mittee on medical nutrition, division
Of medical sciences, National Re-
search council, says in a report pub
ished In the Journal Of the Amer
lean Medical Association.
In the report are lists of the symp-
toms and signs suggestive Of early
deficiency states in infants and chill
dren and in adolescents and adults.
The subcommittee warns that no
symptoms or physical signs can be
accepted as diagnostic of early nu-
tritional failure. It says, however,
that symptoms and signs when
verified by a competent physician
and when other possible causes have
been ruled out should be considered
as significant indications"
Those symptoms in infants and
children which parents or teachers
might observe are as follows: Lack
OF appetite, failure to eat adequate
breakfast, failure to gain steadily
in weight, aversion to normal play,
chronic diarrhea, inability to sit,
pain on sitting and standing, poor
sleeping habits, backwardness in
school, repeated respiratory in
lection, abnoraml intolerance of
light and abnormal discharge of
tears. The physical signs are bad
posture and sores at angles Of the
mouth.

Whipping Post in Maryland

The customary punishment Of
whipping as a penalty for crime,
part Of the common law of England,
was adopted by Maryland in its first
constitution in 1776 and continued
through all successive constitutions
of the state down to the constitution
of 1864, and then it was removed
from the statute books, not by direct
appeal, but by force Of the Consti-
tutional Amendment abolishing
slavery.
The only crime for which the whip
ping post can be applied in Mary

wife, under the Act of 1882, chapter

ID IGHT adjustment in human af-
II fairs does not involve shortage.
- When human thinking is kept
In accord with the law of God lack,
limitation, and shortage must disap-
pear. Proper adjustment in world
conditions today can be made only
through spiritual insight and an in
creased understanding of Gods law
of unfailing supply. Supply can be
proved equal to demand, because in
Gods universe there is no shortage
of good.
Gods abundant supply never
changes. 1t does moi come and go
with the tide of mortal thinking.
God is abundantly pouring forth all
good, and the real man is continually
receiving this good. For proper hui
man adjustment, thought must yield
to the divine in every instance. Per-
sonal planning, ambitions. habits,
and fixed rules of human conduct
must accord with that which is best
for the greatest number. An under
standing of what constitutes reality
will adjust any sense of shortage
that would try to present itself. There
is a right idea present and available
to give us daily whatever to our linn
tied sense of things seems essential
for human use. In the thought which
is tractable, spiritual, peaceable. these
ideas will come to light.
Right adjustment, then, is spirit
ually mental adjustment to Gods law.
This adjustment relinquishes human
will and selfishness and resigns all
to the dear Fathers tender, loving
care. No shortage can occur from
this adjustment, and many latent pos
sibilities of increase will be brought
into expression.
When our dear Master, Christ
Jesus, discerned the human need of
the multitude for food, after they
had listened long to his preaching
and he found that among them there
were but five loaves and two fishes,
he commanded that all be seated.
"And when he had taken the five
loaves and the two fishes, he looked
up to heaven, and blessed, and brake
the loaves. ;. And they did all eat,
and were filled" MARK 6:41, 42). To
human sense, the visible supply
seemed very inadequate, and there
was much room for doubt as to the
possibility of meeting the need. New
ertheless, the unfailing confidence of
the Master and his recognition of in
finite power put to silence any argu-
ment of limitation, and all accepted
the increase without question.
Jesus did not entertain an argu-
ment of shortage. He did not ques-
ton whether there was enough to
60 around. Neither did he consider
what he would do when the supply
was depleted. He knew that God
was supplying the needs of all, and
that this supply was at hand regard
less of the testimony of mortal sense.
'He looked up to heaven, and blessed,
and brake the loaves." He looked to
God, whose law was adequate to
