DEDICATED TO MY
MON:

If there's no one to welcome YOU hom.
at night
With "a smile meant just for YOU.
Ii no ones arms hold you safe and
tight
And comfort YOU when you're blue.
ii nobody worries when you're in
despair,
Or shows pride when you've made the
grade.
# you're all alone. and there's no one
TO care,
Jr to press your hand when you're
afraid.
If no one watches over YOU.
Or cares what you are or feel,
J.; only strangers see what you do
With eyes US cold as steel.
# no one inspires you in your stride.
Or offers friendly hand.
If you've no one at alt in whom to
confide
When problems their answers demand
If you feel like little lost child in
your fear
| And you cant share your load with
another
! It is only then you'll know. my dear.
What it means to have a mother.

THEY SAID LAST
WEEK:
President Roosevelt:


The twenty-one free republics
Of the americas during the past
ten wears have devised a system
of international cooperation which
mas become great buhvark in
the defense of our heritage and the
defense OF our future. That sys-
TEN. whose strength is now evi-
dent even to the most skeptical.
is based primarily upon the renun-
citation of the use OF force and is
based on the enshrining of inter
national justice and mutual re-
spect as the governing rule of CON
duct by all nations. 1t Is time that
every citizen III every one of the
american republics recognizes
that the Good Neighbor policy
means that harm to one republic
means harm to each and every one
OF the other republics. We have
all OF us recognized the principal
OF independence. 1t is time tina,
we recognize also the privilege o.
interdependence - one upon an
other"

Resolution To
Repeal War Time

Delegate H. w. Zeigler has intro
duced in the Maryland Legislature
resolution requesting Congress to
repeal or amend the Act of Congress
providing for "War Time.
The Resolution sets forth that
War Time has proven highly unsat-
isfactory to the people of Maryland,
as we'll as elsewhere, especially dur
ing the winter months.
The efforts of our farmers, dairy
men, agriculturists and others en-
gagged in the production of food and
other forms of husbandry, are being
seriously hampered and interferred
with by this change in time.
Little, if any, conservation in the
consumption of electric current has
been effected, and no essential diff
ferences can be noted in the produc-
ton of munitions and ornaments,
since most of these industries are
active throughout the twenty-four
hours of each day.

Zero Weather

About the most severe weather Of
the winter has been experienced
this week. An inch or more of snow
covered the ground Saturday and
the temperature began to go down
rapidly. By Monday morning the
bottom appeared to have almost
dropped out. Thermometers in var
ious sections of town that morning
ranged from four degrees above to
two below zero, with high keen
wind raging and making it difficult
to keep homes and places Of BUSH
ness comfortable. At Cameron Bro
theirs mushroom plant, near Syl-
mar, the mercury registered five be-
low zero Monday morning.
The intense cold prevailed thru
out the day, with the biting wind
blowing.
AS night fell the wind died down
and the cold eased up tribe. Tues
day morning the mercury registered
two above zero, and the weather
moderated somewhat, as the day
wore along, with the sun shining
brightly.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1943-02-19

From February II until the bells
ring out for peace, change has
been ordered by the Army, so that
confusion will not be created by
sounding warning signals.
Orders affect ambulances, police
and fire departments, and even To-
comotives approaching crossings and
terminals.
The regulations now call for all
such moving vehicles to sound short
blasts-and NOT at frequent or reg
ular intervals. For short blasts at
such intervals signify that hostile
craft are actually overhead, under
the new afraid warning regime.
SIGNALS REVISED
- In the counties of Maryland vol
unteer firemen will revise their sig
mails as follows:
For local fires the departments
will sound three, and only three,
short blasts, calling the firemen to
duty for ordinary fire fighting.
On the "blue" afraid signal the
long blasts hitherto used to an
nounce fires, will mobilize firemen
and other workers for raid duty.
