Evening shadows were falling
upon the lone and relaxed Figure
seated on the well-curb when q
woman bearing an empty water jar
on her head came to draw water.
The wayfarer asked for a drink.
Willing to prolong conversation with
a man, the woman reminded Him
of the difference In their religions
and sex. She apparently had no
thought beyond light talk.
She thought that the Infinite was
bounded by the Samaritan creed.
To her. an unworthy individual.
Jesus expounded the truth that God
is Spirit; and they that worship
Him must worship in spirit and
truth"
To this undeserving woman, Jesus
revealed Himself as the Messiah.
We marvel at the lavishness with
which He bestowed supreme truth
upon the least worthy of hearers.
Throughout His ministry, He exalted
the worth of the individual. Even
this fippant Samaritan woman was
turned into a witness, who brought
her neighbors thronging to the new
Teacher. There is no foretelling the
consequences when even the lowliest
person becomes witness to highest
truth.

After q little she did drift of
to sleep.
She wakened to a room dark
except for a shaft of light that
came in from the hall. Mrs. Arden

Mrs. Arden tiptoed out to the

Diane lay frowning into the
darkness. The pain was gone, but
a rebellion almost as sharp was
beginning to stir in her. While she
slept Bill had told his mother

Diane slept again.

HEALTH BOARD
RECEIVES FIJI M
Regular Ex-Raying Pro-
gram Gets Underway
Next Week

New Hanover county's health de-
partment, starting next week, will
attempt to get back to its regular
program of ex-Raying persons in
behalf of the elimination of .tuber.
culosis.
That was disclosed yesterday
with the arrival in the city of a
shipment of ex-Ray films. A shor-
tage of such films has existed since
soon after the outbreak of the war.
For the last 10 days ex-Ray ex-
aminations under the case-finding
TB program had been at a stand
still.
Miss Lucy Nash, executive sec
rotary of the Wilmington TB asso-
citation, yesterday reported the ar
rival of new film. She said that
starting Monday an effort will be
made to give examinations to all
persons who call for them.
Hours will be $3.50 am. to 1880
am, daily except Saturday and
Sunday and 2 pm. to 4 pm. except
Friday, Saturday and Sunday at
the TB clinic.
Miss Nash pointed out that ex-
Rays must be given persons seek
ing permits to handle food and
that patients who are i'll and con-
fined in institutions also must un-
dergo the picture taking.
A eason for the shortage recent
ly of ex-Ray films has been the
large number of clinics being con
Quoted throughout the United
States, said Miss Nash.

AS Possibilities For
The Post

E. L. Wade last night doomed as
strong possibilities for the post of
mayor of Wilmington.
The city council meets this
morning at the city hall to perfect
an organization before getting
down to business at its next regu-
lar meeting Wednesday.
Talk among city attaches, obsecv-
ers and others interested was that

the principals themselves were
aon-committal for the most part.
Mayor W. Ronald Lane told a
Star reporter that Il haven't given
much thought to the matter al
though he admitted there had been
considerable talk.
R. L. Burnett was the only coun.
Gilman to definitely express his
feelings. He declared that he was
not interested in being named to
the post.
In addition to naming of the
mayor today. a city treasurer must
be picked. A city clerk also will
be named. Mrs. Mary B. Souther-

ROAD TO SUCCESS
MINISTER'S TOPIC
Exchange Club Told How
Success M a Be
Attained

The Rev. Guy Walton, pastor of
Southside Baptist church, spoke
to members of the Exchange club
during their meeting yesterday and
declared that the reason there are
not more successes is because most
people r just playing at their
jobs.
Speaking on the "Road to Sue
cess" Rev. Walton said that the
father of success is work and that
the mother of success is ambition.
1t often helps to appear and act
successful, he said.
The speaker gave the formula for
success by naming the rest of the
family which bring about the re-
suits, such as: common sense, en-
thusiasm, foresight, cooperation,
care, and economics.

the cut end while it is in the house;
keep the tree away from radiators
and fireplaces. and remove the tree
as soon as possible after Christmas.
Other precautions advised by
Chief Murphy included:
Make sure all Christmas decora-
tions, especially cotton and snow

Inspect your Christmas tree light

tions and make necessary repairs
before installing them on or under
