for the sins of the world. His death
was absolutely unique in the his
tory of the world. Although sinless
Himself, "He was bruised for our
iniquities."
1t is certain that we are all guilty
before God for ''all have sinned and
come short of the glory of Cod
Rom. 1923. All of us have gone astray
like sheep and are guilty of breaking
Gods law. All of us need sinbearer.
This, God provided in the person Of
His Son. He sent Jesus Christ into
the world and upon Him He laid our
iniquity. He received the punishment
due to us for our sins. He was woun-
ded in our place. He was bruised
for our iniquities. He bore our
griefs and carried our sorrows. His
wounds and bruises, His sufferings
and death, were what we deserved
for our sins. Scripture is clear in its
teaching that Christ died for our
sins."-1 Cor. 1853.
This is the meaning of the death
of Christ on Calvary's Cross. He, the
spotless lamb of God, died as sub
stitute for us, the wayward sheep
Have you entered into the meaning
of Calvary? Can you say, "Chris'
died for my sins? Behold the lamb
of God, which taketh away the sin
of the world."-John 1:29. "As many
as received Him. to them gave He
power to become the sons of God
even to them that believe on His
name John 1:12.

Letter Carriers Oppose
Gas Tax Increase

CRYSTAL SPRINGS - Nobody
could be more interested than rural
letter carriers in a rural road pro-
gram, but it seems to us that too
many people are assuming that there
must be an increase in the gasoline
tax in order to have farm-to-mar-
ket road program" was the senti-
ment expressed today by Carl d.
Barnes, president of the Mississippi
Rural Letter Carriers Association.
Rural Letter Carriers, along with
ten other statewide organizations
are opposing an increase in the gas
oline tax pending before the Legis-
lature. Mississippians now pay al
most cents taxes on each gallon
of gasoline-6 cents state, IL Fed
eral, and per cent sales tax. The
bill would raise the total tax to APP
proximattly cents per gallon, the
increase going to the Highway De
partment for development of rura
roads.
Mr.. Barnes pointed out that his or
ganization was very much in favor
of farm-to-market road program
but "as badly as we rural letter
carriers want better rural mai
routes. we cannot conscientiously ac-
cept an increase in the gasoline tax
in the face of the Legislatures own
Investigating Committees report
! showing how our taxes paid for rural
roads have been wasted. We hope
our legislators will give more atten'
ton to eliminating waste of rura
| funds, and less attention to those
who are interested in increasing our
already excessive taxes on the man
who drives a car. If they will do this
we can have a farm-to-market road
program without increasing the gas
! oline tax"

CALVARY'S SIGNIFICANCE

Gle was wounded for our trans
erosion, He was bruised for our ini-
quities, the chastisement of our
peace was upon Him; and with His
stripes we are healed. All we like
sheep have gone astray; we have
turned everyone to his own way; and
the Lord hath laid on him the ini-
guilty of us all."-Isaiah 1915, 6.
When Christ died ON Calvary's
Cross, He did not die as martyr for
a lost cause but as the lamb of God

have brought on the catastrophe
she dreaded.
No young woman in her senses
would marry a drunkard, know
ing he was such, but girls in love
are not sensible and are likely to
make serious mistakes. We should
teach the young people while they
are in the schools the facts about
drinking Intoxicating liquors. An
idea once firmly set in youth has
power to influence behavior down
to old age and this one, the dan
ger of the drink habit, is one that
should be set early and firmly.
Men and women who drink are
not going to stop after marriage.
Habitual drinking is an indica-
ton of disease. That disease must
be treated and cured before the
patients are suitable candidates for
marriage and parenthood.
Marriage implies responsibility
for the coming generation. To en-
dow children with the sorrow and
suffering that drinking father or
mother will surely bring to them,
is unthinkable to decent men and
women. The only way to prevent
such tragedy is to teach the chill
dren and the young people the So
cial implications of drink, its dam
gers to health and character and
all chance of happiness. Marriage
between healthy young people in
wolves enough trouble without add
ing this major one, this most dis.
astrous of all griefs, a drunken mate.

pus and date wear. Both full ana
fitted coats fill her thoughts. The
classic polo coat of camel's hair is
thought about strongly for wear on
campus.
To top everything in the way OF
skirts she wants classic shirts, pretty
blouses with deep necklines and
Bertha ruff1es. She likes the long
sleeved Victorian type blouse OF
cotton or batiste. Most OF her
blouses she wants to be washable.
Suits, and as many of them as she
can get, are the big wardrobe dream
of many a coed. Majority choice is
still for gabardine, for gray flannel,
Glen plaids, and rough tweeds. Slim
skirts with walking room, however,
must be featured along with, the
slightly longer jackets. Two looks
are evident not only in her suits
but throughout all Of her wardrobe
items; the quaint Victorian and
the more tailored, classic-looking

is guided in her choice of clothing
by climate, the type of school she

The bulk of college girl fashions

questions such as will it do for

Washington is different college
town. It's different because it doesn't
have huge. spraWling campuses such
as those that dot other parts of the
country. Students in Washington,
some of whom also work, must dress
for both city and campus life.
The results of this glaring fact
are little sad to behold. You see
slick, black date dresses being worn
to and from classes. This may be
pardoned once in a while, when a
date follows day of schoolWork,
and a return to your home or room
is impossible. However, a steady
dose of overdone, overstyled fash
ion can easily gain for you a rep
utation of being a girl without taste.
Then there's the other extreme

.WhyGrow
Old?
Bp Josephine Lo,Oman

The complexion requires special
care during the summertime. WITH
skin oiliness and perspiration speed
ed up YOU are more apt to find the
little pores becoming clogged with
dust and dirt.
If you have an extremely dry skin
and have been using cleansing
cream rather than soap, you are
on the right track generally. How
ever, with summer heat causing all
sorts of irritations, I believe you
would be wise to resort to milo
soap and water treatment once
day. There is at least one cream
soap especially planned for dry
skins.
In the heat Of the summer sea-
son the pores of the skin have a
tendency to relax. For this reason,
the habit of using ice cubes which
are wrapped in soft cloth for face
patting is splendid. 1t Is also re-
freshing as well as beneficial to
keep your astringents cold. Today's
ice box holds some queer articles,
such as astringents and vitamin
pills, along with chicken and vege-
tables.
Cleanliness is always the first es-
sential in skin beauty, but IN the
summertime it becomes even more
important. One seasons neglect can
leave you with a brand-new crop OF
blackheads and enlarged pores. In
spite of the perspiration, the wind
and the sun are drying to the skin.
It would be a fine idea for the
woman who has very dry condition
to use one of the makeup bases
especially planned for dryness. She
should do this in the summer if she
doesn't in the winter.
Soon you will begin your special
softening and bleaching treatment
for fall. Suntan, which is very at
tractive with summer whites and
pastels, sometimes looks sallow
with winter shades.

MUSTY MATTRESS?
SHNPTENTNG0


From Mrs. L. L. j., Washington. }
AS a fairly new housekeeper, I
have already discovered myriads of
problems in my daily work. Many
of them are answered in this mar
velous column and those that I'm
anticipating I clip and save; but
I've seen no answer to the two
questions that are worrying me most
right now.
Will some one please tell me
what I can do to get rid of ter
rible musty odor in new (six
months) inner-spring mattress?
We live in a basement apartment
and I suppose that that, together
with the humid weather has caused
this condition. Also is it possible
to "de-squeak" such mattresses?
My other problem is what to do
with the vegetable shortening used
for frying food. OF course. save
it for reuse. but I dislike saving
it too long or reusing it too often
and so much has to be used that
| it can't be thrown away.
