during the flight and, on the ships
radio, expedition members were able
to follow the hop. Not only was
much open water reported to the
south, but the plane also passed a
multitude of icebergs just recently
broken off from shelf ice.
The plane carried full flight
equipment, including trail gear,
radio, skis, sleds and provisions for
80 days.
At the entrance to the sound, 1t
was found that the ice contours
had changed since previous aerial
photographs were taken during the
American Antarctic service expedi-
tion of 1939-1941. More ice had
gone out from the sound itself and
what formerly was shelf ice 165
feet in height was now pack-ice-
filled bay in which hundreds OF
seals lazily summed themselves on
ice foes.
AS a result of their findings it
was decided to leave this base at
daybreak for the entrance to King
George VI Sound in order to de-
posit gasoline, food and snowmobiles
intended for use at the operational
base with the advent of the Ant
arctic spring in August. This move
will greatly facilitate the advanced
field program.

GOSPEL TALKS
BY Rev. r. C. Valentine
THE OPEN BIBLE

"The entrance of thy words giveth
light; it giveth understanding unto
the simp1e."--Psalm 1880.
While the world eagerly buys and
devours the daily paper, the story
magazine, and the spicy novel, a
matchless work of literature, the
worlds best seller year in and year
out. the Bible, lies !dust-covered and
unopened. The Bible has a message
for our day. 1t win give strength to
the weak. But like the food set be-
fore us three times a day, it will do
us no good unless it is fed upon. 1t
must be opened and read if we are
to be strengthened by it. What does
it profit us if the Bible is the worlds
best selling book, if at the same
time it is the most neglected book?
Let us beware lest we find our
selves fulfilling the ancient prophecy
of Amos, Behold, the days come,
saith the Lord God, that I will send
a famine in the land, not a famine of
bread, nor thirst of water, but of
hearing the words of the Lord"
A small boy once took a Bible from
the living room table and after turn
ing its spotless pages, many of which
were stuck together, he asked his
mother, us this Gods Book?"
"Of course it is" she replied.
"Then why don't we send it back
to Him, for we don't use it"
Many people consider it respect
able to own a Bible, but few really
use it for personal profit. This COM
ing Sunday is Universal Bible Sun
day and we are again reminded that
the only Bible that can bring us
blessing is an open Bible. Turn to
the tested and tried Book for inspira-
ton, strength and guidance. Pray
God to speak to you from His Word.
Open your Bible, mediate upon 1T
with a prayer that the entrance OF
the Word into your life may bring
light.

State Citizens Invest
S42oM Million
I'm Savings Bonds

Thrifty Mississippians invested
$429,930,000 in E, F, and G Savings
Bonds from May /, l94l, through
October 81, 1947. OF this amount
$305,461 900 or better than II per
cent is still in the hands Of the peo-
pie, an average of $5l3 per family,
as revealed from figures given out
by Rex I. Brown, State Chairman of
the United States Treasury Savings
Bonds Division. He said this invest
ment will bring to the people of Mis-
sissippi during 1947, $8,446,000 in
interest alone.
People of the nation are becom-
ing more interested in United States
Savings Bonds as a safe investment.
In l947, of all money put in Savings,
IL per cent was invested in Savings
Bonds, compared with z percent in
1916. AS results there is II per cent
more money invested in Savings
Bonds today than there was at the
end of the war"
Quoting from an article written
by DIR. w. f. Bond, State Director
of Public Welfare, in which DR..
Bond said, in the mind of the av-
erage person over fifty years OF age
there is this haunting and unan-
swered question--Who is going to
take a r of me after l am too old
and feeble to take care of myself?
To-day there r approximately
10000 persons in Mississippi over
sixty-five years of age and the sta
tisticians tell us that the number
will be doubled within the next Is
years even if there is no increase in
the total population.
Employment agencies say that it
is next to impossible to find employ
ment for a person over forty-five
years of age"
Mr. Brown pointed out that 'this
is an alarming picture, and one that
demands serious consideration by
every employed person, to the end
that every penny be saved that is
humanity possible, that old age may
be years of happiness rather than a
time for despair" He recommends
U. S. Savings Bonds.
