Nancy Gould Proves
to be Enjoyable Speaker

of the life of minister's
children, whose early priva-
tons brought them in adulthood
to an appreciation of their heri-
tage.
Miss Gould's speech training
and theatrical work stand her In
good stead in book reviewing,
her voice and manner adding
much to the enjoyment of her
review.
The book depicts the trials
he and his brother and sister
underwent as children of an
oft-moving Methodist minister
in the small towns of Iowa. The
poverty, the difficulties of adj
justment with other children,
the lack of understanding of the
Woodworking father, all told
with a humorous anecdotal style,
develop the children's characters
while they resent it.
The turning point in their re-
sentment-the growing up pro-
cess becomes apparent, Miss
Gould said, when the sister,
away at college and at last free
of parental and ministerial we-
straint, remarks that darned
parsonage training" won't let
her overstep the principles es-
tablished in childhood.
The author, now an army Of
ficer, spent some months in
South America, where he began
this book, perhaps in a nostalgia
vein. At any rate, the picture
of small-town life he paints was
clearly reproduced for yester-
days audience by Miss Gould.
Mrs. Myrtle E. st. Aubin,
chairman of the series for the
year, introduced Miss Gould.
Dessert luncheon was served be-
fore her review, in the dining
room, where Mrs. George A.
Merifield and Mrs. G. Stuart
DeMott presided. The table
was laid with a cut-work and
embroidered cloth, conferred
with an attractive arrangement
of pink carnations, daisies, bebe
NUNS and wine-colored snap
dragons in a silver container.
A NEW MEMBER, Mrs. Will
lis Hathaway, joined the Twelve
Bellies last evening at the meet
ing held at Mary Shaw's home.
Mrs. Lloyd Hockin won the card

will be the hostess, Dec. 2.

Muskegon, is spending a few

ALL MUST HELP

Every community In the country,
from crossroads village to metro
polis. must join in fire prevention
nrogram which will really get re-
suits and cut our disgracefully high
fire loss to the absolute minimum.
Such a program would be invaluable
to the nation in times of peace. In
times of war, when labor and ma
terials must be conserved, 1t is an
absolute necessity.
AS w. e. Mallalieu of the Nation
al Board of Fire Underwriters, has
pointed out, "It is too late to think
about fire prevention after vital re-
sources are destroyed. Conditions
conductive to serious fires are eth
er eliminated or controlled by strict
enforcement of an embracive hre
prevention ordinance. Handling OF
fiammables and explosives is regulat-
ed; cleanliness in industrial plants
as we'll as in all business houses is
enforced. The management OF a
plant at work on defense orders
might say that its premises are ab-
solutely safe from fire. That still
would not protect that plant from
fire which might start in the build
ing next door because of improper
care"
The National Board, in company
with the National Association OF In
surance Agents, is leading the drive
for the adoption of a model fire
prevention ordinance by all com
munities. Work toward this end is
underway in most of the states and
it will be intensified. The coopera-
tion and interest of local authorities,
civic groups and the public at large
is urgently needed. Fire prevention
is not the other fellows business
It's your business.
Every fire amounts to drag on
the war effort. Every fire prevented,
aids defense. All communities, all
families, all individuals must help.

SAVE YOUR PAPER

Conserve paper! That request
has been made to all the people by
the government. Even before we
were in the war, the government
was using one-third of the nations
paper box production for arms
needs and now military demands will
rapidly increase. On top of that, the
armed forces have many other i'm
portant uses for paper Of all kinds.
The cheapest forms of paper, such
as newsprint, can be reclaimed and
made into boxes and other articles.
When you do your shopping, get
along with minimum of wrapping.
The National Association of Food
Chains offers consumers five good
suggestions when it says: /. Don't
ask for a bag when an item is al
ready. packaged. 2. Don't ask for
separate bags unless necessaary--or
any bag at all if you have only few
items to carry. 8. Take groceries in
cartons when available--then use
the cartons as receptacles in which
to save waste paper at home. 4. Re-
member to save on all kinds Of
paper.
Don't think the stores you pa
tronize are being stingy when they
stop using paper, string, tape and
other wrappings in the wastefully
lavish form we've become used to-.
When they cut down on paper use
thov aro coouorafiur with tho vov
ernment. This is just one more of
the many ways retailing in all its
branches, chain store and indepen-
dent store alike, is serving the coun-
try now.
Every family can help in the con-
serve paper drive. Save all you can
and turn it in when you reach a
substantial poundage. The Army
and Navy need it.

FOOD BOARDING

In spite of assurances from the
Agriculture Department and other
authorities that no food shortage
threatens, that a two-year supply OF
wheat is ON hand, that the store OF
corn in largest on record and other
staples are in abundance, there has
been both food boarding and specu-
lation. Housewives rushed to buy
up canned pineapple, which comes
largely from Hawaii, while purchas-
es of sugar tripled in some large
centers. OPM officials warned that II
food prices got out of hand there
would be Government control OF
prices.
Food prices reached a new 1941
high in mid-December, rising in one
week from 1852 to 1924 on the In
dex based on 1925 prices as 100.
But the rise was not because of any
threatened scarcity. Purchasers were
told that boarding was unpatriotic--
and unnecessary. Sugar stocks, for
example, are larger than usual, and
there is plenty more in sight. Also,
there is prospect of abundant citrus
fruit and winter vegetables. The
orange supply, it was said, would be
the largest on record. Among heav-
lily consumed items from abroad i'm
ports of black tea reached total OF
1O5,OOO,0O0 pounds during the year
1.-The greatest since the war.

CERTAIN FEEDS PRODUCE EGGS
WITH GREEN and RED y0LKS

Scientific research into the coloring
of egg yolks inside the shell, by the adj
dition Of certain ingredients to the lay
ing ration, attracted keen attention
from visitors at the recent International
Baby Chick Convention held at Kan
sas City, Missouri. The experiments
showed that by mixing ingredients rich
In red or green coloring matter into the
ration fed to laying hens at the Con-
vention. their eggs had either red or
green yolks.
An unusual part Of the exhibit was
the chicks on display that were Matched
from eggs with green yolks. Their skins
showed the influence Of the green col
oring matter that the mother hens had
originally eaten with their laying mash.
A number of 4 and 5-week- old chicks
we're dissected at the exhibit, revealing
the green coloring matter vividly in
some Of the internal organs. This
proves conclusively," stated Chas. Hicks,
poultry specialist, In charge Of the DEM
onstration for purina Mills, "that the
feed q hen eats influences her chicks
even after they have been out Of the
shell four or five weeks"
Only one conclusion could be drawn
by visitors ct this unusual exhihit--tho
important part feed plays In making
eggs that hatch out strong vigorous

CHURCH ATTENDANCE

The Reverend A. B. Frye, pastor
of the Methodist church at Richard
SON Park, Delaware, is the author OF
an article titled Worship Cru
sade'', appearing in the current is
sue of "The Pastor, professional
journal serving $4,000 Methodist
ministers throughout the country,
published in Nashville.
Mr.. Frye's article relates methods
of increasing church attendance
which worked successfully in his
church. With the implication that
other pastors might follow similar
plans in their own individual
churches, he tells in detail of the
seven weeks campaign of pledges
for church attendance which he in
stituted; the work performed by
committees and organizations; the
schedule of visitations, etc. Person
al contact, according to the author,
is one Of the most effective forms OF
increasing church attendance. He
says, however that "a campaign like
this can be promoted only by conse-
Grated personalities. I am OF the
conviction, he further states, that
had Christ come to such scientific
day as this, he would have disre-
garded the radio, the telephone, the
postal system, and would have sent
men out two by two, depending
upon their consecrated personalities
to get results.
Mr.. Frye has held three charges
since his admission to the Peninsula
Conference in 1920. Before coming
to Richardson Park he served at

LANCASTER FOUNTAINS OPPOSE
TAKING LAND

Reports of Federal move to take
over more than II 900 acres of Lam
caster County's rich farm land for
military purposes has stirred angry
protest of business men and farmers,
says Harrisburg Patriot.
Directors of the chambers of COM
merce of Lancaster and Mt. Joy met
with farm-owners in Mt. Joy We'd
nesday night to take action of a
plan to protest to Washington any
action which might result in loss of
the northwest part of the Garden
Spot of America" as a farming Sec
tion.
The area concerned is the quad
rangle skirting the towns of Mar
ietta, Mt. Joy, Elizabethtown and
Bainbridge. Computations made at a
meeting by the Mt. Joy Chamber OF
Commerce and farmers revealed that
the area embraced 1000 acres and
contained 1876 farms valued at
$2,3O4,O0O. Federal acquisitions of
this land would force 1900 persons
to move.
Members of the Mt. Joy Chamber
of Commerce meeting Tuesday night
with farm owners of the vicinity
drew up and approved resolution
which read:
eve favor the adoption of the
Victory program of the United
States 100 per cent.
"Be it further resolved that we,
through our directors, oppose locat-
ing of Government property in East
Donegal, West Donegal and Conoy
Townships for purposes which they
are now intending to use the same,
believing we can best aid the Vic
tory program in keeping this agri-
cultural, dairy and poultry area, as
foodstuffs from this area are vitality
necessary in winning this war;"
A committee of citizens went to
Washington to protest and suggest
other lands not so valuable for
farming.

THE DOCTORS ARE PREPARED

Fortunately for the welfare OF
the American people, the American
medical profession was preparing
for war before the bombs fell on
Pearl Harbor.
Since June, 1910, the Journal of
the American Medical Association
points out, the medical profession
has been intensively engaged in
Standardization Of military re-
search, and enrolment of medical
personnel. More than 10000 physi-
clans have entered military service,
and over $4,000 have given their
services, without charge, to the
Selective Service Boards. Additional
thousands of qualified men of medi-
cine are associated with the Army
and Navy Medical Corps, the Public
Health Service, and other govern
mental departments of a military
or quasi-military nature.
The doctors have shown the high
est type Of patriotism. On their
shoulders falls the vast RESPONSE
bility of keeping the military and
civilian populations mentally and
physically fit.. They accept that re-
sponsibility without reservation.
They know the material rewards will
be small. Their principal reward
will be in the knowledge Of vital
public service we'll done.
The American fighting forces and
the American people at large are
receiving a kind Of medical service
unrivaled on earth. No other nation
enjoys higher standards of health
and in no other nation are the re-
quirements laid down by the mill
tary services, SO high. The health OF
our people is one of our greatest
weapons. The doctor will play de-
cisive role in the winning of the war.

BUY DEFENSE BONDS

Our participation in war makes
the purchase Of immense quantities
of Defense Bonds and Stamps all the
more necessary.
We cannot finance the war thru
taxes alone Nor can we finance 1t
by selling more and more regular
government bonds to the banks. The
financial burden that war makes un-
avoidable must be largely absorbed
by the people, by ordinary Amer
lean men and women in all walks Of
life. The Defense Bonds and Stamps
offer US all, whatever our financial
status, the chance to help buy the
guns and planes and the great war
ships that will eventually destroy
our enemies.
Defense Bond sales doubled dur
ing the month of December, 1941,
but are going to have to double
again IL the United States Is to
raise enough money from this source
to keep its wartime economy in any
sort of balance. In an appeal to
United States citizens, particularly
those with steady incomes, Secre-
tary Of the Treasury Henry Morgen-
thau stated that December sales tot
aled $528, ,000, ,000-and then re-
mined us that the war cannot be
won with spare change.
The absolute necessity that the
United States voluntarily increase
its bond sales can be graphically
shown by the December figures.
While the public invested twice as
much money in these securities as
in any previous month, the Govern
ment spent four times as much on
the war effort. The additional mon
ey must be found somewhere.
Some idea of the enormity of the
war effort can be gained from Presi-
dent Franklin d. Roosevelt's esti-
mate that half the national income
must go toward its prosecution. The
largest part will be collected in tax
es. But $1,000, per month
must be gathered through Defense
Bond sales, and the Treasury De-
partmtnt is counting ON the pa
triotism and good sense Of the Amer
lean people to shortly make this
figure a reality.
The Treasury Department has
kept away from high-pressure meth
DDS, preferring to convince poten-
tial investors that money placed in
Defense Bonds will not only help
the country but bring benefits to the
bond holder. In the last analysis,
faith in the bonds is faith in ones
self-investing in defense is back
ing with cash belief in the ability
of free people to remain free.

Economists of the U. s. Depart
ment of Agriculture report that the
supply of most foods will be larger
this fall and winter than last, and
that prices have not gone up as
much as consumer incomes have in
creased. A dollar buys slightly less
food this year than last, but more
people have more dollars. Total food
consumption in the United States
this year Is the largest ON record.
About 45 cents Of each dollar spent
by consumers for food goes to the
farmer, says the Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics, and the remainder
pays for processing and distribution.

WESLEY COLLEGIATE INSTI-
TUTE TO REOPEN
IT'S DOORS

A movement has been started that
has for its purpose the reopening of
the Wesley Collegiate Institute at
Dover, DEL, next fall. The PENN
sula Methodist Conference is spon-
soring the reopening of the school,
Rev. Oliver J. Collins, superinten-
dent of this, the Wilmington dis
trict, states that the financial prob
lens of the reopening had been con-
sidered carefully by the conference.
"A large endowment has already
been received and if the combination
of interest on investments and tut
ton can not operate the school the
conference is prepared to make up
the school budget" the district sup
erintendent said.

SELLING FARM GRAIN
THROUGH DAIRY cows

whenever butterfat Is worth zoe or
more q pound, 1t pays to balance home
raised grains and sell them through
the cow" says E. B. Pratt, dairy author
ity with Purina Mills.
Field observation shows that the
average dairyman figures he must feed
about one pound of his own ground
grains (corn, oats, etc. for every two
pounds of milk.
I'VE at the Purina Research Farm
feel that home raised grains can be fed
at the rate of one pound Of ration to
three pounds of milk, and often at as
wide q spread as one pound Of ration
to four pounds of milk, If the home
grains are properly balanced. A little
figuring shows why we can do this.
"For example, let's figure feeding a
COW seven pounds of grain and take the
round figure of 1c pound for the
grain. This figures 7c for seven pounds,
and when fed at one to two ratio,
will produce IA pounds OF milk.
"The same number Of pounds Of q
proven Purina mixture Is made up of
five pounds of our own grain and two
pounds Of Purina Cow Chow-an ex-
cellent dairy mixing concentrate. At
1c pound, the five pounds Of our own
grain would cost SC. The two pounds
of Purina concentrate would figure
about 2Ac pound or SC total. Thus
we have seven pounds Of the balanced
mixture costing 10c, which should pro-
duce 81 to "a pounds Of milk.
"The difference in price in the about
two daily feelings is only &c day, yet
the extra milk in this example figures
seven pounds. Quite obviously this Is
getting more milk per pound out of our
home grains"
