of what determined and brave peo-
pie can face and overcome"

You, like the most of us, can no
doubt more easily see your problems
than you can discover their solutions.
Phillip was such man, especially
when, upon a certain occasion, the
Master suddenly confronted him with
a problem which seemingly had no
solution.
They were standing on a gentle
mountain slope overlooking the Sea
of Galilee. Before them was gathered
a great throng of people, well over
five thousand, who all day had been
listening to the teaching of the Christ.
But now the sun was sinking in
yellow roseate splendor. Jesus knew
the people were in need of food. Turn
ing to his disciple, Jesus suddenly
asked: "Phillip, whence shall we buy
bread that these may eat?"
Phillip looked over the vast crowd
and made a calculation. 1.-TWO hun
bred pennyworth of bread is not suf-
ficient for them, that every one of
them may take a little!" he exclaim-
ed.
Phillip could figure up the need, but
he saw no way to supply that need.
Blind Phillip! Had he but looked,
not upon the multitude, but upon the
face of Jesus, he would have caught
an expression that would have inspir-
ed him to respond: However great
the multitude, Thou, o Christ, art suf-
ficient to meet their needw
The Scriptures tell US that even
before he asked Phillip the Master
had already resolved to feed the null
titude.
What Phillip failed to recognize in
the hour of need, as many of us fail
to recognize, is the presence of the
Resourceful Infinite who stands at
our side waiting to help us if we
would but turn in faith to Him.
You have no problem that Christ
can not solve.

High Court Is Asked
For Reconsideration
OF Overtime Decision
Solicitor General Says
Ruling Supports Schemes
To Evode Woee-Hour Ac,

BY the Associated Press
The Justice Department has asked
the Supreme Court to reconsider it's
decision which permitted a company
paying regular weekly salary above
the amount required by the Wage
Hour Act to base overtime compensa-
ton on an hourly wage fixed by
contracts.
In petition filed with the
tribunal. Solicitor General Charles
Fahy contended that the decision.
delivered June 8. was erroneous and
offers strong support to schemes
contrived to evade the requirements
of the act The 5-to-4 opinion
directly involved A. H Belo Corp,
publisher of the Dallas Morning
News and owner of radio station
WFAA
In an eight-to-one opinion on the
same day the court held that addi-
tional compensation for overtime
must, in the absence of a contract
for specific hourly wage, be paid
employees even though they received
a fixed weekly salary above the
amount required by the wage-hour
law
Referring to the two opinions.
Mr.. Fahy asserted that they were
mot entirely consistent and have
introduced serious confusion into
the administration of the law
Reconsideration of the eight-to-
one decision has been sought by
the Overnight Motor Transportation
Co., Inc, of Baltimore with par
tlcular reference" to the allowance
by the court OF damages to an en-
ploye equal to overtime payments
found to be due him.

Dry Sugar, No Syrup
In New Canning
Method

Here are a few pointers from
the Consumer Division on war
time canning.
Add a small amount of sugar to
the fruits own juices, instead of
making the usual sugar sirups.
Fruits naturally contain a great
deal of water, and you can make
best use of your sugar by sweet
ening this rather than by adding
more water in the form of a strip.
Heat the slightly sweetened
fruit carefully in saucepan. This
draws out the juices, shrinks the
fruit, and drives out the air, MAX
ing it possible to pack generous
amounts of fruits in each jar.
There should be enough juice to
cover the fruit completely.
Honey may be used to replace
up to one-half the sugar called
for in canning, and corn sirup up
to one-third.
Fruit juices may be bottled or
put up in jars with little or no
sugar. When sweet and tart juic-
es are mixed together, no sugar
is needed. Fruit for juice is pro-
cessed at simmering rather than
at boiling temperatures to keep
the natural fruit flavors.

Water Your Tomotoes
Literally For Good Crop

Now that your tomato plants
are matured, give them plenty Of
water to assure a good crop OF
fruit.
Best to take the nozzle off the
garden hose, and saturate the
plants well around the roots.
A good watering that will reach
down to the roots every few days
is better than a light surface
daily watering.
Train your tomatoes to one or
three main branches, and keep
plants tied to stakes, for rapid
growth.

Right eating" is the simple
means of giving all these things
to ones self and ones family.
The Victory homemaker must
plan the meals so that each days

Energy foods, which contain the

and body heat. Proteins build our
bodies and repair wasting It's

build strong teeth and bones, and
enable the body to function prop
