Lote Watermelon
Grown On q Fence
In P~oscogoulo Yard

Last week Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
and family had the pleas
'ure of eating a watermelon fresh
ly pulled from a vine covering
a fence in their yard.
1t weighed % pounds and was
as sweet and tasty as any Aug
ust grown melon, according to
Mrs. Newly. Under ordinary cir
cunstances such a heavy melon
would have fallen from the vine,
but MI. Newly placed a support
beneath it until it was ripe
enough to pull. They still have

is one big roll of blank paper at

MY TRIP TO THE CHRONICLE.
STAR
BY FRANKLIN r. M



The Sixth grade of the Beach
Elementary school went on a trip
TO the Chronicle-Sta printing Of
flee, Friday, November II. We,
the sixth grade, started talking
about printing and the various
machines used. After a while we
got SO interested in printing, the
teacher, Mrs. Swan, asked Mr..
Easton King, the editor, if we
might visit his printing plant.
The first machine we saw, was
a linotype. BY linotype is meant
a machine that makes a whole
line of type at one time. 1t first
makes a mold by means of en-
cravings. When the operator
types out a line, or name, the en-
cravings full into place. and
these go into the back of the ma
chine to make the form or mould.
After the mold is made, it is ready
for print. These lines of type are
called slugS.
The next machine we saw was
a hand press in which the paper
is put in and taken out by hand.
We also saw an automatic job
press. It is worked by air that

This Changing World
BY C0nstanfine Brown

In quarters close to the White House
some uncertainty Is being expressed
about the date OF the meeting OF
President Roosevelt, Prime Minister
Churchill and Premier Stain.
While 1t seems certain that the Chief
Executive will answer affirmatively Gen.
Charles de Gaulle's invitation to visit
Paris in the near future and may extend
his trip as far as Rome, no definite
thought has yet been given to an early
meeting with the Russian and the
British leaders.
Some OF Mr.. Roosevelt's intimate po-
litical advisers can see no real object
for an immediate meeting OF the Big
Three. The military pattern for the
defeat OF Germany was settled at
Teheran and there is little that can be
added to 1t by a new conference
They point out that Prime Minister
Churchill is the one who has been
pressing for such meeting His OBJ
jectives are easily understandable. In
spite Of the cordial personal relationship
which was obvious at the last meeting
with Premier Stain in Moscow, 1t Is an
open secret that there are many ques-
tions which must be ironed out between
Great Britain and the UsSR In Eastern
Europe, the Balkans and the Middle
East Most OF them are described by
diplomatic observers as explosive" But
they have only secondary interest ut
this time for the United States.
-
Premier Stain made his position clear
in regard to some of these questions at
the Teheran meeting and is under the
impression that he has received 4 green
light from Roosevelt and Churchill. De-
velopments in the last few months have
brought about some changes in the
original elastic" understanding, and
these deviations are worrying the Brit
ish government.
But President Roosevelt's political ad-
visers believe that 4 discussion of these
matters before the Germans have been
completely defeated would not be to
the advantage OF the United States.
