Adjust Animals
On Farm To Your
Feed Situation

Many dairy and livestock farms
in Maryland are apparently over
stocked, according to observations
made on visits to a number of
farms by John w. Magruder,
specialist in agronomy for the
University of Maryland extension
service. He attributes this ten
dency to the great demand for
dairy and livestock products and
the price incentive.
Increased dairy animal and live
stock numbers without a CORE
spending plan for increased feed
production is jeopardizing the
possibility of maximum and most
efficient production on these farms,
Mr.. Magruder says. The result,
he states, is that farmers are be-
ing forced to turn livestock on
pasture before sufficient growth is
made to strengthen the plants for
best production the remainder of
the season. Consequently, pasture
yields are being reduced.
0ver-stocking farms has also
caused farmers to pasture new hay
seeding too short and boo late last
fall, he points out. Hay yields
are, therefore, being reduced when
feed is at premium.
Increasing the number of ami
mails on the farm beyond the limit
at which the necessary feed can be
produced, says Mr.. Magruder,
makes for inefficiency in livestock
production, as well as the handi-
caps to pasture and hay produc-
ton. An unfavorable crop year,
he asserts, would be extremely
trying on these farms.
Dairymen and livestoclmen are
urged to give greater attention to
a sound and stable cropping and
soil fertility program on their
farms in order to produce the
maximum of homegrown feed.
The number Of animals kept should
then be adjusted to that which can

Fat Salvage Campaign
Tagging In Maryland

The State chairman of the
Fat Salvage Committee reports
Maryland's campaign as falling far
behind. There are no doubt several
causes for this, one of which is the
shortage of meat in this area.
Another is the fact that house.
wives have been made conscious of
the Importance of fats through
radio and newspaper publicity and
are using every bit they can, thus
eliminating waste.
A third factor is misunder-
standing of the Fat Salvage set
up. The housewife saves her fat
in a clean tin 1--WE are asked not
to use glass; container. When she
has a pound she takes it to the
nearest store; here it is picked up
by the meat dealer who serves the
store and the dealer, in turn, de-
livers it to the rendering concern.
In short time our service men
are delivering it to its final desti-
nation, Packages for Hitler and
his gang.)
There have been complaints that
grocerymen are not receiving fats.
A call to the local Citizens Service
Committee will straighten out any
troubles.

Maryland State
Guard HOnOred
By British Crown
Genls. MOhr And PetrOtt
Will Visit England AS
Guests To Review Units

Emphasizing the front rank en-
joyed by the Maryland State Guard
among the State military units of
the country, Governor Herbert R.
O'Conor made known today receipt
of a formal invitation from the
British Crown, through the British
Embassy at Washington, for a
group of Maryland military officials
TO visit England and review the
British Home Guard.
Brigadier General Dwight H.
Mohr, Commander of tn e State
Guard, and Brigadier General
Francis Petrott, the acting
Adjutant General, were designated
by the Embassy to represent the
State, and will be accompanied by
several members of their staff.
The invitation, intended by the
Crown for the Commanding Off
GERS of the foremost State Guard
organization in the United States,
was transmitted to the Maryland
officers when the Embassy found,
on checking military records in
Washington, that the Maryland
State Guard had been rated above
81 percent in a recent country
wide checkup, while the next
highest State organization was
rated only 70 percent.

Destroy Expired Ration
Stamps AS Periods End

Housewives are urged to destroy
all expired red or blue ration
stamps to help guard against
black markets in food. Reports
to OPA indicate that many store
keepers have asked their GUS
toners for expired stamps, and
in turn have used them to buy
more food from wholesalers. Be
cause foods bought at wholesale
with these stamps can be sold at
retail without points, every ex-
pired stamp given to a store
keeper is potential contribution
to an illegal market.

Overcoming Bad Luck a Powerful Factor in Building Personality

sonal response make a stimulating company.
 In our day-one of the most dis turbed, difficult. and fateful eras in human history - the massed weight of popular emphasis is nat urally given to the environmental conditions that potently affect mans fortunes and that in parti- cular excuse his failures. So insist ently are these dwelt upon that many come to think of themselves as their helpless victims.
 It is significant that our modern novels commonly picture men and women as the prey of fate. Human beings trapped by life, fighting a hopeless battle against the conspir- acy of tragic mischances, and f1n- ally crushed and managled-how many novels are shaped to that outline! AS one literary critic sums it up, the common theme of a whole school of writers is "the in- dividual defeated by the world, and made sardonic jest of." So one character exclains, 'Tricked by Cad, that's what I was, tricked by life and made a fool of.'
 There is 8 serious 4eed that we restore to its proportionate import ance our power of personal response. Its universal presence is indicated by the universality of self-blame. A mechanical automaton lacks any basis for self lf-condemnation. It is not responsible for anything it is or does. All human beings, however, confront the problem of self accusation - But if self-blame has validity, it can only be because man possesses the power to face life with a personal rejoinder for which he is responsible.
 At any rate, bad luck is a poor alibi If only because good luck by itself never yet guaranteed real per-

BRISTOL COMP ANY
 STAGING EXHIBIT
Boston's Know How and Know Why Show Att
 tracing Attention

One of the most attractive ex- hib.ts and one that is receiving favorable comment from the thous- ands of servicemen, war workers and other civilians who have visited the ''know how" and "know why" War Production Drive Show at the VILE. regional headquarters, r Court street, Boston, is that of The Bristol Company of Waterbury. The show is sponsored by the Labor Management groups of 225 manu- featuring concerns in New England. The display includes over 1000 of the war plant miracles that have re- suited from the united efforts of these groups to disprove Hitler's boast that American industry was not prepared for war and that 1t could not get organized for war purposes before he and his Axis allies had conquered the world. The show opene don Monda yof this week and will continue through Mo- vember 27 from I2 o'clock noon ur1- til 9 D. m. with the exception of Sunday, the Fist.
 The show, the first of it's kind in this country, features new tech niques which have won suggestion awards, boosted war plant output and morale, solved manpower and absenteeism problems and scored countless unsung victories on the battle lines of production. WIPE executives in Washington will att tend the show to closely watch this New England inovation as a model to be copied in other principal cities throughout the nation.
 Live" exhibits of production sug- gestions and ideas by which war workers, through the labor-manage- ment suggestion systems, have saved thousands of man-hours and tons of critical materials are highlightS of the exhibition. The actual inven- tions and shortcuts perfected by the war workers are depicted through jigs, fixtures, models and gadgets, accompanied by their first crude sketches, blue prints and num- ercus photos of the production sol- diers themselves and the astounding results of their efforts.
 The Show occupies 4,000 square feet of space on the seventh floor of the National War Agencies building and the combined exhibits of each war plant are displayed under their particular category. The displays are not arranged by companies as is the usual custom at trade shows.

We are not responsible for our heredity; much of our environment we cannot control; but if 1t is true that a third factor enters into the building of person ality-the power to face life with an individual re- joinder-then we are responsible for that. When such acceptance involves self lf-condemnation, an alibi almost inevitably rushes to the rescue. A college president says that after long dealing with students he is unsure whether the degree B. A. stands for Bachelor of Arts or for Building of Alibis.
 On the lowest level this desire to escape blame expresses itself in emphasis upon luck. Fortunate people 'get the breaks" men say; personal failure is due not 50 much to mistake as to mischance. That luck represents 8 real factor in human experience is evident. and he who does not expect il-fortune as one of the ingredients of life is trying to live in fairyland, but nothing finer has appeared on earth than unlucky people who are real persons.
 Biography is packed with illus trations of this fact. Glenn Cum ningham, who has run the fastest mile on record, in four minutes, four and four-tenths seconds, was crippled in boyhood in a school house fire. The doctors said he would never walk again. Then they said that only a miracle could en- able him to walk. He was out of luck. He began walking by follow ing a blow across the fields, lean- ing on 1t for support; and then went on to tireless experimentation to see what he could do with his legs, until he broke all records. for his race.

WESSON NAMED ON
 STATE COMMITTEE
Fuel Industry to Be Repre- scented By lC Man COm-
 mittee Named Today

State War Administrator Harold F. Woodcock today announced the appointment of 10-man commit tee representing the fuel industry in the state to act as an advisory group to State Selective Service headquarters in an effort to save essential personnel in that industry so that 1t can serve the civilian population.
 In announcing the appointment of the committee, MT. Woodcock said:
 We believe that this committee will do very important piece of work in securing deferment for men in the fuel industry who are so valuable that businesses wouiG have in continuing without their services to serve the public.
 'The policy of this operatoin does men out of uniform or the armed services but rather that these key peorle can do a more important job in their worok to keep our civilian economy going"
 The committee on essential man. power will be headed by State Fuel Administrator Seth w. Darley, the war administrator said. Others on he committee are: Jack L. Hall, Househcld Fuel. Hartford; Charles 2. Stubbs, Bridgeport Coal Users associa ion. Bridgeport: Joeeph Cynes. Household Fuel, New Brit sin: Francis J. Crcnin, Home Coal Co.,, New Haven; E. w. Van De- venter, district manager, Socony- Vacuum Oil Co.,, New Haven; c. E. Small, district manager Tidewater Oil Co.,, New London; W E. Wesson, representing the Texas Go. in Wa terbury: L. E. Wilson, district man. ager. Atlsntic Refining Co.,, East Hartford; c. N. Mitchell, of the Col onial Beacon O.l Co.,, in Hartford.
 Selective Service Director John F. Robinson has endorsed the crea- tion of this committee which will work in much the same way that the Essential Manpower committees of the feed and grain industries are now functioning. Captain s. A. Ward of State Selective Service headquarters will represent MT. Robinson on the committee.
 As men in the fuel industry are called up for induction this com- mittee will dedtermine whether any of these are, in its opinion, essen- tial. If the committee deems that an individual should be granted a deferment from the draft, State Selective Service headquarters will be notified as well as the local board that is concerned.

UNITED CHURCH
 CANVASS WEARS
National Movement Begins Sunday; Wilson Heads
 Sponsors Committee

New York, Nov. 17.-Charles E. Wilson, former president of General Electric and now vice president of the War Production Board, will head a list of prominent citizens in spon- soring a United Church Canvass of nineteen national religious bodies of three faiths. The campaign, designed to place the wartime serv- ices of the church before every local community, will open next Sunday and continue for month.
 President Roosevelt has endorsed the campaign.
 "The constructive value of the United Church Canvass is readily apparent. Annual stock taking to determine our church memberships and other spiritual resources is most essential. What a grand thing if our religious impacts can present a united front" the Presi- dent declares.
 Officials of the campaign, at the national office, Federal Council of Church Building, 297 Fourth Avenue, New York city, point out that several thousand more church. es will participate this fall than last year. Many large cities will en- ter the second year of the canvass.
 The unique feature of the United Church Canvass is that these thou sand of churches will present the wartime services of the churches and synanogues together, and will ask during the period of Nov. 21-Dec. 12, for financial support. Although each church will conduct its own fi- nancial enlistment, all churches will abide by the same time schedule.
