 Down the street from the White House a short piece. in the wash ington headquarters of the Amer ican Veterans Committee, Frank lin D. Roosevelt. Jr, AVCsS hous- ing chairman. held Q press confer ence.
 For the newSme0 present who were also veterans Of FDR. ST. s nOw-hiSturical sessions with the press there was 6 distressing feel ing of having been there before. It was as though father had care fully tutored son on the technique and son had been an apt pupil
 There was the same long wait for things to get started Under FD.R White House conferences never got under way on time. Some times there was as much as an hours delay, F. ID. R 1T. made it an even half hour.
 When he finally did arrive fl was a dramatic entrance with a mumbled apology. Senior never did apologize for the lateness. But like his father he grabbed the show tm- mediately.- With a charming smile an amazingly exact fac-simile got off an opening statement. Like his father he quickly paid of fos 8 journalistic favor. He thanked the Washington Daily News for hav- ing printed an editorial praising AVG that afternoon.
 It would have been too obvious if he had used a long cigarette holder. But he used Q cigarette tC punctua&e his remarks with the same expansive flourishes his father used to use and with almost the same effectiveness.
 Several of the facial expressions looked awfrlly familiar: the blink ing of the eyes after what he con- sidered a piece Of good repartee, the downward twist of the mouth after a little barb of sarcasm, and then the lowering of the eyes wait- ing for the duty laugh from the press. And the face is beginning tC |get some Of the same lines from the extensive use of some of ths

 It was a real shock to hear the first reporter address him as MT. Roosevelt" You always thought Of it as only, '4Er. President"

Timely Hints
By RUTH CURRENT

To get the best use from fat in
cooking as well as to save it for
use again, heed the mo smoking
rule. When fat reaches the
smoking point, it starts to break
down chemically and three I'm
fortunate things happen: Cd the
flavor of the fat and of the food
cooked in it is damaged, (2) food
fried in smoking fat may have
an unhappy effect on the diges-
tive tract, 90 fat that has reach
ed the smoking point will turn
rancid more quickly than fat
which has not smoked if saved
for use again.
To prevent fat from smoking
keep heat low when melting fat
for sauce or pan-frying. Cook
meat at moderate temperature
which is best for the protein as
we'll as the fat. Remember, fats
vary in the amount of heat they
can stand. Butter, oleomarga-
rine, drippings and olive oil al
tend to smoke quickly.

Farmers Income
Higher In 1915

Raleigh-Money that North
Carolina farmers received from
sale of their 1915 products totaled
$637, $4,000, the Federal-State
Crop Reporting Service in the
State Agriculture Department
finds. This is an increase of five
per cent over the $609,312,0O0 re-
ceived during 1914.
Receipts from the sale Of live
stock and livestock products re-
turned to farmers 500, 900 or
almost the same as in 1914. The
increase in total receipts to Tar
Heel farmers was brought about
by the advance in crop sales,
which last year brought in $751;
$4,000 compared to $500, 565, 900
the previous year.
Of the total crop sales in North
Carolina, tobacco alone returned
$378, 1897, 00O-74 per cent of the
value of crops sold or SO per cent
of the farm income from market
ings of all kinds. While the cash
income from tobacco increased
by SCI, 100000 last year, the re-
ceipts from cotton and cotton
seed sales decreased 1924 900
to a total of $51 ,695, 900.
Peanuts are the States third
most important crop win $685.
256,000 being received from this
crop last year. Truck crops and
Irish potatoes are next in i'm
portance.
According to Russell P. Handy,
agriculture statistician with the
department, total cash receipts
from farm marketings in the
United States during 1945 total
$40, 7O9, $4,000, which was only
two per cent more than in 1914.
North Carolina continues to
rank third in the nation IN farm
income from crop Sales" said
Handy. It is exceeded only by
California, and Texas. For total
farm income, however, North
Carolina ranks 18th. Many states
outrank it in income from live
stock and livestock products.

You may ignore, deny, abuse,
Almighty God, but can never es-
cape Him Sooner or later all
men discover that, some to their
everlasting joy, others to the ev-
erlasting sorrow.
Among those stories told
around the camp fire is that of a
man who lost his shadow. Two
men were out on a hunting trip.
The weather became increasing
ly cold so they were determined
to go home. On the way it be-
came so cold that they arrived
home only with the greatest diff
ficulty. What was their surprise
to discover as they stood in front
of the home door, that one OF
them no longer had his shadow.
Realizing that he could not do
without that, they went back,
found 1T frozen in the snow. They
picked it up, brought it back
home, thawed it out. So the man
who had lost his shadow found it.
This is a perfectly silly story,
although told with campfire
elaboration, it offers interesting
paS1inle, 81 is silly because we
knGFR that no man can lose his
shadow.
Yet the man who thinks he
can lose God, is just as silly. He
may thrust His influence out of
his Fife, ignore His offer of sal
vatiOn, head himself toward
eternity in hell, but he does not
escape God.
This fact is a great comfort to
all men who constantly desire
the salvation, presence and guild
ance of God. The Bible constant
ly reminds us of His ever-ready
presence and help:
Him that cometh to me I will
In NO wise cast out Twill
never leave thee, nor forsake
thee So that we may boldly
say, The Lord is my helper, and
i Will not fear what men shall do
unto me.
- Behold, ! am with thee, and
viii keep thee in all places wither
thou goest, and will bring thee
again into this land; for I will
not leave thee until I have done
that which I have spoken to thee
af -
BE strong and of a good cour-
age, fear not, nor be afraid of
them: for the Lord thy God, he
1t Is that doth go with thee; he
viii not fail thee, nor forsake
thee"
St Paul has this pathetic but
pointed sentence in one Of his
gg6s1les to Timothy, ''Demas hath
foEsaken me, having loved this
present world d. At my first
answer no man stood with me,
but all men forsook me: I pray
Coz that it may not be laid to
6kssn charge. Notwithstanding
the Lord stood with me, and
Strengthened me-"

So our situation today is that

We will be paying average hourly

we SELL we get only 1912 prices.
