Along the mainland Korean
front, probing operations were
hampered by several inches of
snow which fell throughout Thurs
day. The weather, bringing low
visibility, also curbed Allied air
attacks.
Big helicopters whirled through
the snowfall over high mountains

day and rescued members of an
Allied partol which had been pin

Thoughts on Life
You Pay
By DR.. JOHN w. HOLLAND

Al WHITE HAIRED old Negro
minister was asked to address q
group of young people. In his quaint
way he said:
ssLife is like a big department store
that offers most everything to buy
ers. Some of the things are good and
worth what they ask for them Some
things are mighty poor, not worth
the totin' home. A few of the things
life offers are superfine and worth
your life to get.
aNow what have learned is this,
whether you pick good things, poor
things, or superfine things, YOU
GOT TO PAY FOR 'EM!"
walking through a hospital ward
recently, stopped at the bedside OF
4 Young man whose face was almost
as white as his pillow. said, I
hope and pray that you may get
well"
He said, aNo chance, I guess. I'm
paying for my foolishness."
/ learned that he died few days
later. He thought that he could sin
and not pay for it, but he was wrong.
Nature has put many pleasures IN
life, but this poor, misguided young
fellow tried to get more thrills out
of himself than God had put into
him.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-10-15
Innocent Must Pay

One of the tragedies of this life is
that innocent people also have to pay
for the sins of the guilty. The boy
who goes to prison for his crime
against humanity puts a large part
of the payment upon his home and
loved ones. The parents of a wan
dering son or daughter have to pay
for wrong doing of their children.
What a price they have to pay.
The Hebrews instituted vast sys-
tenn of sacrifices by which the sense
of guilt was lifted from those who
had broken Gods law. This idea was
carried across into Christian theology
in which Christ gave His life "as
ransom for many" He paid for our
redemption by His life and death.
Through Him we attain peace and
forgiveness, but the price Of our mis-
takes and sins we must ourselves
bear. Broken laws of health are
paid for by sickness. Broken laws of
Gods revealed way of life are paid
for by cheapness and sorrow which
we have to pay.
The old Negroes statement is true:
'sIf you buy, you got to pay!"
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-10-15
No Escape From Laws

The Bible says, Because sentence
against an evil work is delayed,
therefore, the hearts of men set
themselves to do evil" Thousands
Of people do not believe this because
of the egotism which persuades them
that laws were not made for them.
/ know woman who had beau
tiful Christian soul that shone out
through her features. She had Jared
through poverty and sorrow, but she
paid the price for her character by
prayer and personal honor. She gave
her life, not for SHINING, but for serv-
ing God and humanity.
She gave much of her time to
young people, showing them the
wonder of the Christian way Of life.
Her little humble home was sort
of heaven for many young people
who came to parties there, but caught
the spirit of this wonderful friend
and were, many of them, led to the
Great Friendship of Christ. She paid
for it all, and it was worth the price
Her funeral was almost mass meet
ing of her community.

Miss Warren helped develop the
All Citizenship oath. Other
dreams of hers to come true are
the establishment of the National
All Club Foundation, the Ma
tional All Club Center, the Inter-
national Farm Youth Exchange
and one-year All fellowships in
the Department of Agriculture.
| Through personal interviews,
voluminous correspondence, the
sending of literature, which she
had prepared, and the actual
training of foreign field workers,
Miss Warren has been instru-
mental in setting a pattern for
All Clubs and similar youth
groups in many lands. For this
work, she received superior
service award from the Secretary
of Agriculture.
/ Trusted Adviser
Presidents and attorney gen.
erals of the United States have
sought her counsel in national
conferences concerned with the
problems of both urban and rural
young people, and she serves on
many national boards dealing with
American rural life. She has just
been elected president of the
Women's National Farm and
Garden Association.
Numerous Government citations,
both here and in other countries,
extol Miss Warren's achievements
in the development of All Clubs.
These include the Treasury De-
partment's recognition of her
Feed a Fighter" and Fill a
Liberty Ship" programs, con-
sidered invaluable in squirting
farm boys and girls to help win
the war.

Behind the National All Club
Camp of farm girls and boys,
which meets here June Is to %,
is the vision and crusading per-
sistence of a woman. She is Ger
trude L. Warren, often referred
to as the Mother of All Clubs. ~
She is the organizations guardian
angel.
| Hers has been much of the
pioneering spirit responsible for
the development of All Clubs into
one of the worlds greatest youth
organizations. Enthusiastically,
Miss Warren says, THE far
reaching results of All Club work
represent too great a movement
to be claimed by any one person
They are the product of many
minds working in unison toward
one goal-developing in rural
young people a way of life built
on self-help and the ability to
look beyond their simple daily
tasks to take their place in the
life of our Nation"
Measured by any yardstick, the
All Club movement is one of ou1
Nations greatest rural assets. Two
million girls and boys on the
farms ,of America are All Club
members. They are voluntary in
Istruments for bringing better ag-
ricultural and homemaking prac-
tees to the enrichment of rural
living. Their now famous insig-
mia is the four-leaf clover, in
scribed with four HIS. Their
simple pledge is known around
the world: "A Head to clearer
thinking, a Heart to greater 10y
lalty, Hands to greater service, and
Health to better living" The
mounting alumni of this group
trained for leadership, now totals
over Is million young men and
women who represent one of the
hopes of our tomorrow.

situation for when a plan is
before a house it is either ac-
cepted or rejected.
Now to make myself clear, |
am referring to a proposed
scheme for job work which /
think should be more carefully
studied and discussed between
the VICORP and the Labor
Union Staff before any deci-
sion is made. For up to Sum
day, June 20, the Supreme
Council Of the St. Croix Labor
Union met in Cumberland
Castle an dhad on its agenda
three items and nothing like
job work was discussed or
even listed on the Agenda.
It is time true one member
tried to say what he is hearing
concerning such strenuous
tasks but he was told since the
president is handling this mat
ter presently we will have to
wait on him, until them the
matter will rest as is.
And whatever might be in
the minds of any employer in
regards to working by job, +
would be glad if the matter
goes through its right channel
SO that it should not cause any
unpleasantness.
Fellow Citizens, there might
be much more than we think
but I have given you the pic
ture so let us watch and wait,
and as soon as the matter
comes if it will before the SUI
preme Council you will hear
from US.
In the meantime forget the
past and stick together to save
the VICORP not for a privi-
lodged few but for all the
people of the Virgin Islands.

For Careful Study

Islands and especially the
workers of the VICORP, /
wish to call your attention to
a few facts that should prove
important to you and ! hope
will be helpful.
First, there is only one
st. Croix Labor Union and our
people are united. 1t is true
that for the want Of good
leadership many Of our mem
bers have become disguised,
but deep within their hearts
the brand of the ST. Croix La
Dor Union is still there and
any move that would work a
hardship upon t h e m they
would revolt.
Now it is true that the work
ers in every bracket in and
around the VICORP have
done their part in every way
to make the corporation a sue
cess, however. If success have
not been achieved it is nc
fault of the workers, Everyone
of US can truthfully say from
start to finish there was not a
hitch. Although people were
complaining of unfair treat
ment the still continued to
work expecting that after he
crop is over such grievances
would be discussed sensibly
and Strengthened out.
One does not have to know
the condition of the workers
at this time, when they have
just finished harass1ng them
selves in the heat f the noon
day sun. No, it is for them to
tell their feelings. Don't you
think those people are tired?
If I should answer the ques-
ton for you I would say'No'
you do not think so. For if you
did you would never attempt
to force them into job work to
clean those neglected fields
with over-groWn weeds, which
is much harder work than cut
ting cane. Let me give you an
insight of both jobs:
a. Cutting canes we cut
with one hand and throw back
with the other.
p. Wedding and digging out
heavy grass, cutting back wild
iWst with heavy trash one will
have to chop and haul back,
and in SO doing you use more.

FINALLY-THE NEW TELEPHONE SYSTEM

U 8 MIGHT well be called a red letter day in the
history of this island, and seriously, because on that day this
place saw a new, modern and thoroughly efficient telephone
system. And when we say new, that includes from the ground
up. Under the new system power is provided by large storage
batteries which are kept charged from the main source. of
power for the town. No longer will operators have to turn a
little crank for each and every cal, nor will it be necessary to
miss calls as a signal tells the operator which calls are coming
in If at the time other calls are being answered.
THE NEW system does more than give St. Croix
good telephone service. 1t forms the basis for expansion which
is sure to come, and the possibility Of service to every quarter
Of this island, town and country. It has long been recognized
that an efficient telephone system is essential to progress
along all lines, and is indispensable for defense purposes.
WHILE TT IS most satisfying that there is a new tele-
phone system. in this island, the change over gave excellent
opportunity for native ability and talent to exert itself. The
mechanics responsible for this work gave much opportunity
for local artisans to gain valuable experience upon which
they may draw ii the future for proper maintenance and
needed repairs. The telephone central is a spot which adds
much to the appearance Of the town, and fully BETTING as the
headquarters for the new system For this fine Job credit goes
to Peter Jackson who by now has distinguished himself as one
Of the leading artisans Of the entire group. Mr.. Jackson has
put his skilled hands to many Jobs all Of which are works OF
art. Emil Doute, who worked with the old system, has been
given, training, and will be carried on into the new system.
No.DISCUssION Of the telephone system Of this island
could not be complete without credtable mention Of Chief
Wibekdn who has spent many years with the old system
nursing it along, and actually keeping it alive long enough to
permit the new system to come along.
TO SUBSCRIBERS, field workers and mechanics, and
GENERATORS alike the day on which the new system was installed
was a great day-a red letter day.
