/ REMEMBER, I REMEMBER

I remember, I remember,
The house where I was born,
The little window where the sun
Came peeping in at morn;
He never came a wink too soon,
Nor brought too long aday,
But now, I often wish the night
Had borne my breath away!
I remember, remember,
The roses, red and white,
The vi'lets, and the lily-cups,
Those flowers made of light!
The lilacs where the robin built,
And where my brother set
The laburnum on his birthday,
The tree is living yet!
I remember, remember,
Where I was used to swing,
And thought the air must rush as
fresh
To swallows on the wing;
My spirit flew in feathers then,
That is so heavy now,
And summer pools could hardly cool
The fever on my brow!
I remember, remember,
The fir trees dark and high;
I used to think their slender tops
Were close against the sky:
It was childish ignorance,
But now 'tis little joy
To know I'm farther off from heav'n
Than when I was a boy.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-Mayor
Fiorello LaGuardia of oil-thrifty
New York urged today that more

Before the same committee. Rep.

of shopping on people" which he
said had developed out of the ban
on pleasure driving in the East.
The Senate committees investi-
cation of the ban by the American

He countered with demand for

WHATS THIS!
NO IT
IS TOUGH, UGH
BY A. v. GULLETTE
AP Features

GALLUP, N. M. The Big Chief
of the OPA tribe may have to
answer to the Navajo about this
coffee business
To the Navajo, coffee ranks in
Importance right behind his horses
and his flocks. without his coffee
'kofay," one of the few words for
which the Indians have found no
tribal language substitutes Nav
ajo can hardly work up good mer-
icine dance.
Why, there have been times when
meat and such was scarce and the
Navajo had to pull through on
bread and coffee alone.
But the literal Navajo is taking
his coffee rationing like everything
else, strictly at face value. And
while Big Chief OPA may not be
the most popular fellow among the
$4,000 Navajos, traders say the In
dams have not boarded coffee.
The Navajo camp and coffee just
go together--lke hotdogs and buns,
or hamburgers and onion.
In the chill on the high plateau
reservation in New Mexico and
Arizona, the coffee pot SINNERS
steadily on the campfires surround
ing the medicine dances.
Tt looks now as if the pot will
boil weakly, if at all
"A Potent Brew
Navajo coffee, however, is only
a distant cousin to the gently
stepped pale-face beverage. The
Navajo recipe is to dump coffee,
sugar and water together into the
pot and boil. The principal detail
.oi Navajo coffee making is boil
Ing. If anyone needs more coffee,
additional sugar, water and coffee
are tossed into the pot. At the
discretion of the cook, the old
grounds are tossed out-usually
at camp moving time.
The position of coffee in the
Navajo diet was given official re-
cognltion by the Indian Bureau
about 10 years ago when the Nava-
Jos were snowbound on the reserva-
ton, and many faced starvation.
Army bombers dropped food, and in
each package of provisions was al
ways box of coffee
Coffee Strike
The Navajos once staged and
won a sit-down strike for their
favorite brand Early Indian trad
ers stocked their shelves with the
old Arbuckle brand-a by-word on
the southwest plains-and packaged
IN bright yellow sacks trimmed in
red and blue and garnished with the
picture of 1.-THE lady with wings y
Squays furnished their mud and
log hogans with coffee premiums,
Proposes grew up on cut-outs of
brightly dressed ladies of the per-
iod. e
Then, Arbuckles without warming
changed the brand and modern
lied the package. The Navaios
would have none of 1t.
Package Returns
The old package was finally re-
instated, and remained in high ia
vor until last August when the
brand was discontinued.
Even the sturdy pine boxes in
which coffee was shipped by the
carload played an important part in
the Navajo country. The boxes were
made into tables and chairs. They
were used for partitions, outbuild-
ings and fences.
Coffee rationing may change a
lot of things. One thing, however,
probably won't change. That's boil
ing. Coffee grounds now probably
viii be boiled as long as necessary
Unit fresh batch is rationed out.

In Quiet Session
Bv VICTOR EUBANK,

NEW YORK, Oct. l4.-Selected
stocks got a mild grip on recovery
in today's market although a gen.
eral lack OF buying animation
clouded the picture to a consider
able extent.
A slow upward push started after
an irregular opening and. led by
rails and assorted industrials, gains
ranged from fractions to a point or
$3.50 by midday. Prices slipped
from the best In most cases near the
close and scattered issues were a
shade under water. Late selling,
however, was negligible and plus
marks were well in the ma jority at
the last. Transfers for the full
stretch were around 500, 900 shares.
Continuation OF pleasing war news
from virtually all fronts aided bull
ish sentiment, but many customers
still appeared puzzled by Italian de-
velopments and kept commitments
at minimum. Tax questions again
were bothersome marketwise. A
brisk rise of grain futures to new
seasonal highs helped stifIen stock
trends.
