Selected Poem
AUTUMNs LOST HERITAGE

uesle Nelson Jennings in The Christian Science
 Monitor Now that the heraldry of earth has grown Dim on these tatrnished banners, left at last To vaulted silence, and we walk alone Through halls where regal retinues were massed Nothing survives of this old dynasty. The chronicle is written the page turned Autumn's lost lineage leaves TO panoply Of splendid conclaves where the torches burned. Snow seals that abdication. We embark On stricter times more native to our need New England winters can be long and dark. Yet something fingers that the eye can read In early twilight something rich that stains Even bare trees-this purple that remains.

To believe that God has appointed certain men to salvation and others to condemnation quite apart from anything they may do, is to take the whole meaning out of the Christian gospel, which bids everyone repent and come to saving knowledge of Christ.
 We are elected to, salvation, but that election depends upon our willingness to say Wes to Gods offer and to abide by its consequences.

Stunned by other neighbors. Salty
water is common throughout the
regions where this camel is found.
1t has made the best of the situa-
ton and learned to drink its fill Of
1t. Not being true vegetarian, this
camel does not refuse bones and
skins Of animals, flesh or fish or
even felt blankets.
During February, March and
April the counting camels are more
than surly toward rivals. One baby
is born every 13 months. 1t is a
helpless infant whose mother gives
it her full and devoted attention. 1t
grows fast, gaining in strength, so
that in one week 1t can eat solid
food. In its fifth year the camel
is elected to its life work as a bur-
der-bearer for man. With proper
care the ship of the desert" will
work for 20 years.
Upon close inspection one realizes
how wonderfully the camel is adapt
ed for service in districts where
other animals would soon perish.
Its long neck enables it to lift the
head high enough to see long way
and to reach desert growths for
food The large eyes are protect
ed from the suns glare by heavy,
overhanging lids. The ears and nos
trils are small and can be closed at
will against flying sand and dust.
The animal walks on broad pads,
never sinking deep into the sand
though loaded with 800 pounds or
more.
When food Is abundant the camel
builds up a sizable reserve in the
humps on his back. Upon these he
can depend when food cannot be
obtained.
Bactrian camels are usually dark
brown in color, blending well into
the landscape.

Premier-Premiere.


Premier and premiere are from
the French, and In that language
they are, respectively. the masculine
and feminine forms Of the word
meaning first, foremost, the chief
principal" The masculine form,
premier, is now considered as Eng
lish. The American pronunciation
Is, first choice: PREE-mee-yer; sec
ond choice, pree-MEER. The Gus
tomary British pronunciation is
PREM-yer. The French say, prum-

On the other hand, the femi-
nine form, premiere, is still consid-
cred to be French. We use it in
two senses: Cd q leading lady in 4

and in the tower a bell that rings:
and from somewhere within come
chimes and sacred music-"to the

err" Domenico will say, land the
everlasting glory of God" The
words are his, as spoken to me.
Domenico, as I've said, is short,
and very, very small; just the lit
tlest Wisp of man, with a mobile
olive face and hypnotic gray eyes
Much like another little Italian fell
low, who came up from Ajaccio to
France, and became an emperor,
and lived to die on foggy little
island after covering continent
with blood and tears. People like
Emil Ludwig and the Deltiels and
the Galantiers still write whole
books about him, and call him great.
But Domenico, little half pint of a
man on the East Side of New York,
may never be heard of except as a
perfect chef and the builder of a
church-sto my dear mother and
: the glory of God" Yet there are
people who will call him immeas-
urably the greater man.
Note from friend, writer of pop
lar songs, exuding acid remarks
about some publishers he knows.
I've never had a song, or had any
thing published except a column by
friendly editors, but on request
could make sundry remarks of my
own-and postscript comments on
literary aides" whose principal
business is to take young writer's for
an expensive ride. Joyce Kilmer
got seven dollars for his Trees
poem. Later, set to music, it must
have brought much money to the
publishers; but his widow, down the
coast from here in New Jersey, was
said never to have got penny in
royalties.

Benefit Payments
Reach A New Low

Aggregate benefit payments made
to claimants by the Maryland IN
employment Compensation Board
in the year 1913 were $926,200, that
figure being less than one-tenth of
the total paid in 1928, the first year
of the Maryland Boards full opera
ton.
At the end Of the year the reserve
fund at the Boards disposal for
future benefit payments to the I'M
employed totalled $83, 1922 61, but
these figures can be expected to
make considerable jump before
the end of the current month, as
contributions by covered employers
are due on January 20 for wages
paid in the last or December quar-
ter of 1943, and should amount to
considerably more than $4,000, 900.
This should boost the reserve fund
to figure beyond $90,000,000.
Benefit payments in December
amounted to $58,635, exceeding the
November total by $12,717. This
increase, however, is not remark
able, for, in three of the four years
Immediately preceding 1943 the De-
cember claims exceeded those of
November, owing principally to
factory slow-downs that mark the
years end in some industries.

CORNERS AND CANYONS
BY Frank Edwards Henckel

NEW YORK - Dinner at the
Palm. It's a little restaurant on
Second avenue, where at ten-minute
intervals you still can hear the
thunder of L trains, on the last re-
naming section of the East Side
transit system. Celebs in journal
ism and hard-pencil art here fore
gather for substantial food; and
Domenico is the chef. Domenico,
full-labelled, is Signor Domenico
Zazzera, and he measures just four
feet eleven from the soles of his
working shoes, and comes from
Pieve, in Italy, between the Appen-
ines and the Pc; and his wife is the
pretty Signora Domenica, who will
flash the sun-smile of her native
Parma and take you up to their Sec
ond-fioor home and show you what
her Domenico has done.
For there, in his spare time over a
period of five years, Domenica has
built a church. 1t is a replica of the
Roman Catholic shrine in Pieve, and
in its completed form almost fills a
large room. The edifce in Pieve is
named for some of the saints, but
Domenico calls his replica ''the
Church of Everybody = because
everybody who comes to the Palm
also eventually sees the church.
For generations Domenico's people
worshipped at this high-towered
stone structure in the town that was
SO long their home An ancestor of
Domenico's was its designer and
architect In it Domenico was bap-
tized; and to its religious and chart
table work his mother devoted the
