OBSERVATIONS
BY Mack C. Nance

Vermin, a noXiouS annoyance,
dom. Man as we'll as beast are SuS-
ceptible to the infection of this
Scourge. No race is immune against
this much dreaded pest. One and
the only sure method of eradicat-
ing the "cootie" is through a pro-
cess of "delousing." It is known
fact, that vermin thrives best in
filth and are allergic to purities
and cleanliness. The human specie
of vermin,' equally obnoxious and
revolving, the presence of which
may be easily located by watching
closely, man or woman, who de-
rides, ridicules and label all who
may not "gooSe-Step" or see eye
to eye to their (human cootie) one
track mind and self-opinionated
ideals; as Shintoist, FeudaliSt, Nj
hilist, or Communist. Such behav-
ior on the part OF. man or woman,
reveals a strong symptoms of men
tai dereliction and they should be
peacefully, legally, and permanent
ly isolated. Such human parasitic
sycophants, forms a barrier, a seri-
Gus barrier, a serious obstruction,
to the higher ambition, the ardent
aspiration and sincere hopes of the
bulk of Negroes. There are several
vile and odios ideologies, concelv-
ed, Matched and nourished in the
foul hearts and minds of the lower
elements of the Caucasian races,
of which, the Negro and all other
members of the non-white races,
will, must and shall, denounce, de-
tour, bypass and above all, avoid
and that is: an discriminating
name calling or a denunciatory ex-
preston against others. The big
ness, the prominence, the parex-
cellence of an Individual, is more
amicably exemplified in human
constructive achievements, deeds,
elevating in character, sublime and
majestic. This, in lieu of a verbal
or written Tilmanite explosions OF
a ridicuIng invectiveS.

rainy day, when we were turning
out early. and when many of the
Avondale boys had to catch the bus
for home, leaving their positions
filled by girls, but she pleaded with
us to spare her school from slaugh-
ter by the Foxes" and gently
whispered into the ears of yours
truly, 1--WE do not have a track
team, let us play softball." Being
stunned momentarily, we conceed-
ed to hear the Lady's prayers. We
had no idea that she was duplicat-
ing her famous feat of paving the
way for glowing reports of victory
by taking us into neck-saving
game.
AS for the girls games which
were hardly mentioned by the vic
tory reporting coach, we played
three, and they lost three. To add
insult to injury here are the re-
suits: first game Avondale 35; Palo
Verde Q; second game, Avondale
II, Palo Verde 2; third game, Av-
ondale 30, Palo Verde 2. Note the
II and 2 game was played on Palo
Verde's makeshift field. Also no
tice the jinx score of "two" that
haunted the girls of Palo Verde.
In each game they seemed to have
been aiming at dedicating a score
of one for each of their teachers.
So ends the brow-raising facts
involving two schools in athletic
competition for the school year,
1947-48.
Here is a brief account of re-
quested engagements for program
entertainment that were fulfilled
by Avondale during the fiscal
school year: Three appearances at
the school for whites at Avondale,
including one at carnival which
helped to bring $1,5O0.O0 into the
Avondale school fund; Buckeye
High School, Buckeye; Tolleson
High School, Tolleson; Tolleson
Grade School, Tolleson; Peoria
High School, Peoria; Litchfield
High School, Litchfield; and the
st. John Baptist Church, Phoenix.
We have also been the recipients
of entertainment from others with
in our vicinity.
All things considered, we of Av-
ondale feel that we have had a
most successful year.
Less some one take by comment
about the Palo Verde teacher too
seriously-be it known that the
coach is regarded by me as real
competitor. I have enjoyed her
craftsmanship; this is merely an
other friendly whipping for which
she bargained.

An interesting example of how Gle
electric heaters can be easily adapted to
a wide variety of farm jobs is shown
above. Here, GLE Strip Heaters are being
used to cure sweet potatoes. The heaters,
mounted on two brackets and covered
with wire screen, provide a constant flow
of clean heat for curing.
GLE Strip Heaters are also used in
homemade drying cabinets for seed,
beans, etc. They may also be placed on
walls of workshops and other buildings
to provide comfortable working areas.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-11-15

Burt Countryman, of Alton, N. Y,
installed a Gle Space Heater to eliminate
annoying condensation or sweating" on
his milkhouse walls. Furthermore" he
reports, "My G-E Heater will prevent
any of the pipes in my milkhouse from
freezing. Keeps my hands warm, too"

automatic controls.

HEAT CONTROL

A G-E Thermostat permits automatic
control of such heating devices as heating
cable, space heaters, drying cabinets,
etc. Once the thermostat is set for any
desired temperature no further attention
is required. Simple to install and easy to
regulate, it I'VE time, conserves cleo
tricity. Prices start at about $3.50.

ELECTRIC HEAT GETS FARM VOTE!
F~ar-sighted farmers avoid troubles caused by ice and cold;
install GE heating devices now to prevent freeze-ups later

All signs point to a wider use of electric heat
by farmers this winter in their fight against ice
and snow. Wherever very low temperatures pre-
vail, growers, poultrymen and stockmen are
finding G-E heating devices an easy and eco
nomical way to avoid many of the troubles
caused by snow storms and low temperatures.
Electric Heot Widely Used
George Rietz, manager of the Farm Industry Division,
General Electric Company, recently made a coast to coast
trip through many of the states where freezing temperatures
are a hazard. He reports the following:
Zone thing l noticed is a big increase in the use of electric
heating devices. For example, heating cable is being used on
pipes wherever there's a chance of a freeze-up. I found more
and more farmers planning to use electric s~tock-tank deicers
and stock waterers. And l visited quite a few milk houses
and workshops that should be quite comfortable to work in
this winter, thanks to electric space heaters"
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-11-15

G-E Farm and Home Dealers are now
offering GLE Heating Cable in new ready
to use" sets designed especially for the
farm and home. Each heating cable set
contains 60 feet of flexible, l~ead-covered
cable with plug attached, and is backed
by the General Electric assurance of
satisfaction. Prices start at about $l0.75.

Despite the subterranean regard
which this sophisticated generation
purports to hold for the more di-
rect and obvious types of humor,
Mcneil has found that being a
cornball pays off. He works with
out a script and his gags are strict
ly off-the-cuff.
He once invited a herpetologist
"a student of reptiles and amphib-

"Come into the parking lot after

viper"
And when a New Jersey woman
told him that her husband is a
butcher and she is a corsetiere, he
commented, "What an ideal ar

you pull them in"
Mcneil parlays this kind of ex-
temporaneous patter with a feeling
of genuine camaraderie for the
plain people who are guests on his

Burglar Walks Off
With 10000 Bees;
No Stings Attached

MILWAUKEE.-The theft of one
hive and destruction of another
had two Milwaukee county bee
keepers buzzing angrily.
Whoever walked off with a col
ony of 10000 bees that belonged to
j. P. Kallas, 5735 Milwaukee River
parkway, really knew what he was
doing, Kallas said. The thief picked
a chilly night when the bees would
be inactive and he brought his own
lid for the hive. The little singers
apparently didn't give him a bit of
trouble.
His colony is worth about $40,
Kallas said. But it would have mul-
tiplied to a honey factory with Co.
900 workers when the clover starts
to bloom. BY then, it would have
been producing about 10 pounds of
honey a day, and honey is worth
about 30c a pound.
Kallas had one hope left. If the
thief didn't take the bees more
than a mile, and if the weather
turns very warm in a day or so,
they may come home again. But,
said Kallas, the man who took them
probably knows that.
Other providers who tried to take
a hive that belongs to Fred H.
1873 S. Both street, muffed
the job.
Using a wheelbarrow, they ratified
a hive from its site in an orchard
at S. 43rd street and w. Grange
avenue, town of Lake, to the street.
Mad, the bees stung the thieves,
who spilled the hive On the pave
ment. The box was smashed and
the bees died.

APPROVED:
BrQnnCn

President Truman's choice OF
Charles F. Brannan to succeed
Clinton Anderson as secretary of
agriculture has received the whole
hearted approval of the national
farm organizations.
They consider the 44-year-old
former assistant secretary of agri-
culture "a friend of the farmer"
One of the bases for this feeling
of harmony is the fact that Bran
nan and the farm organizations con-
cur in thinking that the prewar
parity law is badly outdated.
Such crops as soybeans, for in
stance, have attained a much great
er importance since the law was
passed but still have no satisfactory
price fixing basis. Other farmers,
including cattle and dairy produc-
ers, claim their parity scales are
out of line in this postwar period.
Ideas developed by Brannan to
help remedy this situation have
been largely adopted by the lead
ing farm groups and are incorpo-
rated in bills now pending before
congress. Unless congress acts by
the end of this year the law guar
anteeing farm prices at 80 per cent
of the fixed parity rate will expire.
Serving quietly as assistant Sec
rotary of agriculture for the past
four years, Brannan has made
himself the backbone Of the adj
ministration's drive to enact a long
range farm program.
Thus, the farmers think a lot OF
Brannon because he has demon
strated that he is looking out for
their interests in a realistic, level
headed fashion.
President Truman, it appeared
had made a good choice in putting
Brannan at the head Of the de-
partment. Almost everybody was
satisfied, and that, in an election
year., was a most desirable situa-
ton for Mr.. Truman.
