CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

God will redeem my soul from
the power of the grave: for he
shall receive me-" This declaration
from the Psalms is the Golden Text
in the Sunday Lesson-Sermon on
Probation after Death" in all
branches of The Mother Church,
The First Church of Christ, Scien-
tiSt, in Boston.
A lesson-sermon account from
Johns Gospel tells of Jesus ap-
pearance to his di,ciples after his
resurrection. Thomas, who had not
yet seen Jesus, doubted his appear
ance. And" says the account, aft
er eight days again his disciples
were within, and Thomas with
them: then came Jesus, the doors
being shut, and stood in the midst,
and said Peace be unto you. Then
Saidth he to Thomas, Reach hither
thy finger, and behold my hands;
and reach hither thy hand, and
thrust it into my side and be not
faithless, but believing. And Thorn
as answered and said unto him,
Ny Lord and my God"

Imperial Schools
Lead All County
In War PROGRAM

Imperial schools continued to lead
the pack in the Schools-At-War
program Saturday by running away
with the honors in the bond selling
campaign.
Students at Imperial High school
sold s4.120 worth of bonds on one
day last week which is almost
enough to buy the triple jeep
threat. a jeep. a quack, and a
grasshopper. The eighth grade at
Lincoln school in Imperial sold over
s1,1OO worth of war bonds in one
day to help swell that schools total
to $6,958 in one week. .--
Since school began Sept. l3
Silsbee school pupils have sold more
than $1,000 worth of war bonds and
are still selling.
The only two rural schools Of
ficially TO enter the Schools-At-
War program thus far this year are
Silsbee and Eucalyptus Mrs.
Florence Finney. coordinator of the
Schools-At-War program in I'M
perial county, said Saturday. "All
schools wishing to operate under
the program and enter the triple
threat program must sign up Of

one of which sank a ship in a
minute. reliable sources here said
neither the force of the attacks
nor the weapons were considered
exceptional. They acknowledged,
however, that the resumption of the
Atlantic underseas offensive is a
serious threat that must be COM
batted by every means.
MANY SUBS AT WORK
The Germans were known to
have had in the neighborhood of
300 to 400 U-boats in the Atlantic
early this year, some 200 of which
we're in action during the peak of
their success last spring During
the summer lull in operations, the
number probably was increased and
the new offensive may exceed the
previous one in scale.
Survivors of the north Atlantic
attack said that upwards. of 30 u
boats attacked the two convoys.
The Allies already have dealt a
major blow to the offensive, how
ever. by devastating three quarters
of Hamburg, the major Nazi sub
marine building center and base, in
serie sof unparalleled air raids,
and by bombing the important At
lantic bases of Nantes, La Pallice
and others on the French coast.

Richmond of El Centre reminded
the public Saturday.
Mail for personnel of the navy,

may be accepted for registration or
insurance If it conforms to existing
requirements as to weight, size, and
other prescribed conditions.
WILL WEIGH 1T
IF in doubt about the weight of
a letter of package" Richmond
said, bring it to the postoffice and
we will weigh it. This is especially
important when air mail is con-
sidered. Aair mail is six cents for
half an ounce for overseas delivery.
The cost must be fully prepaid or
We will have to send it back to the
sender. We cannot send it over
seas if not fully prepaid. There
are no arrangements overseas to
collect what is due. Let us weigh
it to be certain"
All packages destined for over
seas must be completely and legibly
addressed. They must be securely
boxed, wrapped, and tied. Paste
board shoe boxes are not strong
enough to send boxes to men over
seas. postal regulations set forth,
and the public was warned against
using them for parcels sent over

.0PA Apple Cut
Doesn't Come

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-UP)-
Informed sources said today that
Office of Price Administration plans
to reduce the consumer price of ap-
pies have failed and that similar
efforts to cut the retail cost OF
oranges and some 18 fresh vegeta-
bles also appear to be doomed.
OPA general manager Chester
Bowles told reporters on Sept. l3
that price reductions then con-
templated would lower living cost
23 per cent.
The first obstacle appeared when
OPA prepared a regulation estab-
fishing apple ceiling prices of nine
to 10 cents a pound. Pressure from
growers, however resulted in rails
ing the proposed ceiling by one
cent on orders by economic stab
ilization director Fred M. VinSon, it

amended, has not yet been Official

times, and sometimes accepted fol-
lowing one or more reflections. In
man, cases, particularly mental,
acceptance or rejection depended
largely upon the examiner, he said.
URGES RESCREENING
The director said he felt the arm
ed services could get many addi-
tional men from a rescreening OF
educational deficients, the mentally
ill, and those rejected for neurologi-
cal defects. -
Hershey was asked how many
government workers were 4-F's in
the latter class. He said he was un-
able to answer, and Rep. Jonn
Sparkman, D.. Ala, remarked that
he understood many men rejected
for neurological defects we're 'oc-
cupying responsible government po-
SitionS."
Hershey was followed by members
of the war manpower commiSsio ioll
committee on government draft de-
ferments. Col. Edward A. Fitzpatrick
of the committee repeated criti-
cisms of deferment requests from
the interior department, but de-
clined to discuss letter from Secre-
tar: of Interior Harold l.. Ickes
which termed the criticism "malic.
ious".
Fitzpatrick testified that the in.
terror department sought to have
the VINO committee designate posi-.
tions occupied by 6349 interior de.
partment workers, as key posi-.
tons. If the committee had acced-
ed, he said, the department woulo

thorities from a nearby airbase
agreed to route their planes over
the rice fields for a short time, but
they didn't bother the ducks. How
ever, slower planes still are being
flown over the fields, and bazooka
like device which shoots bombs
from the ground to $50 feet in the
air still were being used.
Moore believes the most effective
way to keep the ducks out of the
fields-they caused an estimated
$500, 900 damage in rice fields alone
last yeats to provide for feeding
them on productive land.
The natural resources department
is working on a plan to scatter
grain in game sanctuaries. Moore
hoTeS that the ducks won't mind
that it win be weevil-infested grain
that humans couldn't use anyway.
MEETS OPPOSITION
In another move, the department
attempted to make an agreement
providing that ducks can be fed
200 yards from hunters blinds and
property boundaries, but ran into
opposition from the fish and wild
life service, federal agency, which
contended that the feeding limit
should be 500 yards. Feeding on
duck club property has not been
sanctioned since 1885.
A spokesman of the state fish
and game division said he hoped
the present impasse on the new
regulation may be broken before

stands now, he said, we're up in

Beverly Hills Jail when she tried to
scale the wall of the Chaplin
estate after he'd removed her from
his payroll, collapsed. Then she
threatened to commit suicide. DR..
Russell Starr, her physician, hos
pitalized her briefly and then sent
her to live quietly in a westwood
village apartment with her mother.
She was rushed to the hospital, a
small institution on the far south
side of Los Angeles, before dawn
today when birth of the disputed
baby seemed imminent. DR.. Starr
said Miss Barry was in excellent
health and that he saw no reason
why her child should not arrive
normally.
During the months she waited for
arrival of the infant, Miss Barrys
friends said she frequently wept
Historically. They quoted her as
sobbing:
He told me he loved me. He
whispered in my ear. When knew
1 was going to have baby, he
buried his face in my hair and said
we would be married and have a
glorious future together as man
and wife"
For a year and a half the con-
vent-bred Miss Barry was under
contract to Chaplin at SIS per week.
while he instructed her in the art
of the Cinema. He stopped her
paychecks last year, but-according
to her-not before she had suffer-
ed two illegal operations and had
become an expectant mother.
The full-lipped Miss O'Neill soon
sIpplanted Miss Barry as Chap
Inns drama student, but insisted
in a statement to investigating de-
tectives that her mother always
had been present at sessions in the
wealthy comics house. Then she
sprung the word "esoteric" to de-
scribe their relationships and sent
the police looking for dictionary.
