Chivalry is that quality which
makes a man want to defend
woman against every man except
himself.
A shy girl is one you have to
whistle at twice.
Said one skeleton in the museum
TO another: IF we had any CUTS
we'd get out of here"
A story, which is probably not
true, is told of young Brooklyn
soldier who was on maneuvers in
Oregon. Having few minutes to
himself after evening chow, he
strolled out into the woods and soon
came back with a handful of rattle
snakes rattles. Where in the world
did you get them?" gasped his
alarmed companion.
"Off'n woim," replied the lad
from Brooklyn.
Did you hear Bob Hopes defini-
ton of strategy? It's when the high
command meets and decides when
to attack, where TO attack and how
to attack-without getting Eleanor
caught in the crOssfire.

Girls worry about their hats and

to eliminate entirely the temper
screw adjustment which had to be
made on standard cable-to0l ma
chimes before tools could be hoisted
or dropped. Elimination Of this adj
justuent means faster drilling and
reduces occurrence of stuck tools
with resulting fishing jobs con-
tractors have found.
Spudder users have also been
highly pleased with the versatility
demonstrated by these machines. In
addition to top-to-bottom drilling In
shallow fields, spudders have e
proved exceptionally efficient IN
tailing-in after rotaries, In replac-
ing tubing and rods, in setting lin
ers and screens, In deepening, and
in other servicing and repair oper-
ations.
Maintenance costs with modern
spudders have proved uniformly
low-another feature contributing
to their increasing popularity With
their all-steel all-welded construc-
ton, they have repeatedly demon
strated the strength necessary for
highly mobile units.
With these facts in, it appears
that spudders are showing the way
in another new era of drilling an
era in which low cost, speedy
drilling, and exceptional mobility
are essential No doubt the trend
toward spudders will continue, and
at an increased rate.

SANDERS Negro,
Relief And FDR
Propaganda Is
Hit AS Vicious
By NAACP Head

NEW YORK - (SNS) - PreSi-
dent Roosevelt and Negroes on re-
lief rolls are the targets in a new
piece of political propaganda which
made its appearance last week.
It is confidential" news let
ter by Samuel B. Pettengill, synd1-
Gated by Americas Future, Inc,
2O5 East 42nd street, New York II,
N. Y. The bulk Of the release pre-
tends to be q true conversation
with a Negro maid in a Detroit no.
tel. In dialect the maid is made TO
say that she only started to work
recently and that she and her hus-
band had been ION Mr.. Roosevelt's
relief for nine years
The news letter also makes the
maid say that she is only working
now because Mr.. Roosevelt wants
''us folks to work during the war
and that he is going to put them
back on relief after the war and
thev won't have to work any more.
In a protest to Americas Future,
Inc. the NAACP letter stated:
eff the people VINO complain so
loudly about the amount of relief
doled out to Negroes would use
one-quarter of their energies in
trying TO see that Negroes receive
a fair share in employment. n e
proportion of Negroes on relief
would change But the very same
people who are using the Negroes
on relief argument against the
present Administrator are also OPP
posing the Administrations efforts
through the Fair Employment
Committee to do away with dis
elimination in employment and
give all persons a fair chance to
secure a job regardless of race,
creed, color, or national origin.
"All types of propaganda, OF
course, are to be expected in po-
Itical campaign, but it strikes us
that this release represents some
thing near the bottom"
