A sense of depression settled
over Leda. She wished Sherry
hadn't gone out to the farm this
weekend. Otherwise she'd be COM
ing in soon an dLeda would have
someone to talk to. But Sherry
wouldn't be home till tomorrow
night. And the apartment seemed
very empty, too quiet.
For the first time in years, Leda
felt lonely.
1t was quite early when Sherry
awoke on Sunday morning. She
stood in the dormer window of her
bedroom at the farm and looked
out over a newborn world. There
had been rain during the night
and now a soft moisture freshened
the air, making it good to breathe.
The new pale green Of the or
chard trees beyond the window,
the matching velvet carpet Of
grass on the ground, aroused in
Sherry a kind of wonderment at
the repeated miracle Of life and
of all growing things.
How could one doubt. immortal
ity when, each spring, buds burst
again from the black, deadlock
ing branches of trees? When grass
blades forced their way anew
through the chill earth? When all
the countless miracles Of growth
and renascence took place on
every hand for doubling eyes to
lsee?
Standing in her window, Sherry
felt the fresh loneliness OF the
spring morning enter into her.
She seemed to exist merely as a
receptacle for the aching beauty
spread before her. The dawn
bright sky. with the trees etched
pale and delicate against it. The
rolling, gentle contours of the
countryside. The unitarian beauty
of sturdy red barns and freshly
whitewashed fences. Cattle moved
majestically in the distant pas
lures. There were sweet, early
morning sounds. birds song and
the gentle unobtrusive noises OF
animals.
Just then Lex moved into her
line of vision, a tall, loose-limbed
figure, utterly unaware OF her.
Sherry stood for a moment,
watching him quietly, feeling the
quickened beat of her heart.
Then she called. leaning on the
sill. Hi, Lex"
He glanced up in surprise. a
grin breaking over his face. Hi.

She nodded. 80 r you-con-

Her tone was b%antering. her

previous evening in the city with
Kay. But the pain Sherry felt at
the thought Of that was so ia :
nliliar that she could ignore it.
When you expected to go on living
with a pain all the rest Of your
life, you had to ignore it.

She got out of her pajamas and
into blue jeans and a bright plaid

Economic Benefits of
Beer and Brewing

Beer is widely known as a mild
refreshment that provides moments
of relaxation. It is less we'll known
as a generator of untold economic
benefits for workers in a variety
of fields.
Taken in its larger unit, the
barrel, |beer pays SO in excise
taxes to the Federal treasury and
an additional tax, varying in
amounts, to the state governments.
Barley is the chief ingredient
and for this the brewer pays a
premium to obtain the special type
best suited to the requirements of
beer and ale. Corn or broken rice
is also used as adjunct and, of
course, hops for flavoring and
aroma. And yearst for fermenta-
ton. When the brewing process
is completed, the residual grains
go back to the farms as high
protein cattle feed. Some of the
processed yeast is sold as diet
Arizona sun., 1947-09-05

supplements, being the richest
known source of vitimins of the B
complex.
Participating in producing the
materials, supplies and services
needed to produce the beer are
workmen engaged in mailing,
manufacturing barrels, cans, brew
ing equipment and machinery,
labels, trucks, those who engage
in transportation and nearly 100
other allied industries that have
a share in the production of a
barrel of beer. That can be trans
lated into considerable employ
ment.
Beer, the beverage of modera-
ton enjoyed by millions of Ameri-
cans, IS a product that typlifies
the interdependence of industries
in our economy. What aids brew
ing, benefits many other industries.

BY Mrs. Nellie Maye Taylor

Hello there, here, and evey-
where What is on your mind these
danys besides the high cost of
living and the "high-soaring" heat.
Here go again, but I wish
I could have a summer cottage
one of these days, somewhere in
the tall pines where it's pleasure
to watch the logs burn in an open
fireplace during the month of
July, August and September.
Wouldn't that be fun or wouldn't
it. On second thought don't think
1 would like that,-that would be

satisfied anyway, Satisfaction is
contentment. We always wish for
that we don't have. If we are rich
we wish we were richer. If we're
fat we wish we were thin. If we're
thin we wish were fat, and il
we are black we try to get white,
the white are trying to get black.
So goes life-we are always wish
ing. If we knew our allotted meas
ure of years and the speed with
which they move, we would surely
spend less time in wishing and
more of it working. While we
are young we spend our time
wishing we were older and while
we are in the impatient state of
mind we often wish our lives away
and never accomplish anything
worth while. We wish for op-
portunities for which we, are not
qualified. Instead of doing as

FEAR
Rambling Thoughts BY The
Philosopher

It is safe to say that no good
work was ever done in Fear.
Until you have struck the
schackles of Fear from yor HANDS
you can do nothing.
Until you purge the poison OF
loosened from your MIND, your
brain is not efficient, and you can
not remember we'll, think straight,
or imagine constructively.
Until you pruge the poison OF
Fear out of your HEART, your
emotions instead of giving you
power and pep will cause you only
shame and confusion.
Fear is oyur greatest Enemy.
It is a Ghost. It is nothing at
all. But it is no less terrible for
all that.
For we ourselves are but Ghosts
housed in bodies, and we get our
deepest hurt from other Ghosts.
It is this Ghost that knocks the
cup of success from your lips just
when you are about to drink.
It is Fear that reaches out its
ghostly hands to strangle you in
the nick of crisis, just when every
thing depends upon you.
It is Fear that tangles your feet
hangs like a milestone about your
neck on your journey; it dims
your eye so that you canot see
the truth, roars in your ear until
you cannot hear the music al
about you, fevers your blood, un-
strings your nerve and pours its
semitic impotence into your cuI
of life.
You have one big battle. It is tt
