the life of mother or dad, sister
or brother, is snuffed out.
In addition to the heartbreak are
doctor and hospital bills plus
funeral expenses. The whole life of
the family will have to be readjus-
ted. Christmas gaiety will be gone.
Tears will replace laughter.
On the other hand, suppose be-
cause of your carelessness you are
involved in an accident and while
you escape serious injury a child
was killed. How would you feel?
Can you sleep as you think of the
father and mother facing a Christ
mas without their little one? Will
you enjoy your holiday season?
Most accidents are avoidahle.
Some individual like you or me is
usually to blame. We were in a
hurry. We didn't stop to look. It was
a wonderful party and we took one
for the road. We knew our brakes
were defective but hadn't had time
to have them fixed. There are a
thousand and one excuses but none
of them will help alter the damage
is done.
Yes, the Grim Reaper's Florida
target is 1877, but it doesn't have
to be and won't be if we will all
observe speed laws, exercise eau
ton and keep our minds clear and
on the job when we are behind
the wheel of a car.
Sure, know you are in hurry.
What if the speed limit is 80 miles,
the road is clear, you are a good
driver, there is no traffic officer
in sight so you step on it 40, 80
60 miles an hour. Maybe you'll
save a minute, two minutes In
getting to your destination. There
is no reason to be in such g
hurry. You haven't anything In
particular to do when you gel
there. All right, suppose nothing

"Ah, youth!'' sighed the 75,year-
old actor as he reflected on the
two glamor girls with whom he is
appearing in Gentlemen Prefer
Blondes" He portrays the diamond
tycoon who inspires the song
Diamonds Are a Girls Best
Friend" Besides having flirta-
ton with Miss Monroe, he does a
musical number in which she sings
Down, Boy!"
''You know. an actor has TO kaep

ners in his characterizations. 9th
erwise, he stagnates as an actor.
l have always made it habit to
watch young people; that's the best
way to find out how people are
living and thinking.
"And l can't think of any more
pleasant work than watching Miss
Monroe and Miss Russell. Each
possesses sex appeal to remark
able degree. That is kind of
animal magnetism which is rare
in human beings. Some of the great
figures of the theater had it-wom-
en- like Anna Held and Lillian
Russell.
"TheSe two girls have it, and
they know how to use it. Whether
they themselves are sexy, I don't
know; that is something else again.
But they certainly are able to
eXude sex appeal"
Apart from their obvious physi-
cal attributes, Misses Monroe and
Russell are pleasant to work with,
Coburn commented.
each of them has a sense of
humor, and that is a valuable
attribute in a woman" he said.
Neither of them has let fame 60
to her head; they are regular and
don't put on airs.
Miss Russell seems like a very
smart woman, she has apparently
managed her career intelligently.
Marilyn has had less experience in
pictures, but she seems eager to
learn. She will listen to direction
and advice, which is something a
lot of newcomers won't do"
He added that both women have
motherly qualities, something
many of their fans may not have
noticed.
THAT Is another important fac
tor in woman" he remarked.
Il don't mean that women have
to be motherly only to their chill
dren; men want to be mothered
too.
After all, man never really
grows up. All of us remain boys.
A girl of Is is more mature in the
ways of life than man of 80.
That's why most men seek a wife

WE DON'T KNOW WHEN WE KILL THE

Do live for yourself alone do you live for your

self alone, with thought of posterty the conditions
that will prevail in your beloved hometown after you pass
away then you do not consider the Garrison Blight pub

However you may feel about the bay bottom in the
Garrison Blight The Citizen is confident you will admit
that it can be converted into of the best yacht basins
in all the world. To attain that eventually we keep
in mind children and chdrens children and the well

city permits further encroachment the so-caed bay

Key Westers who feel that gobbng up the blight not

anything that they felt would harm their hometown
Probably they feel that constructing buildings along
the Roosevelt Boulevard side, bordering the Blight will
not interfere with its conversion into yacht basin.
But this thought should be kept in mind: if struc-

There were amateurs, semi
professionals and former pro-
fessionals who, for one reason
or another, find it more
convenient to hold other jobs
and pursue music as a hobby.
The result was an orchestra

THE NOME VOLUNTEER FIREMEN

Some organized groups go about their work so efficiently that they become taken for granted by those who know how they operate and lose their iden- tty through lack of publicity and praise which they justly deserve.
 We have such group here-the Nome Volun- teer Firemenwhose ready response any time the fire whistle bloWs is responsible for fewer bad fires and fatalities. Their cooperation with the Nome Fire De- partmen not only in time of fire, but during disasters such the drowning of the eight Navy ten days ago is deserving of recognition.
 We take this opportunity to list the Nome Volun- teer Bremen, organized in 1885 by Fire Chief w. w.

Economic Chieftains Disagree Over Issue Of Special Session

WASHINGTON, (P Two of President Truman'S top economic chieftains were at odds Monday over whether Congress should be called into special session to tighten price controls.
 In the latest repercuSSion to Price boss Ellis Arnall's recom- mendation for such a session, Ec- onomic Stabilizer Roger Putnam said last night he saw no need for ii unless prices keep climbing at a rapid rate.
 And Senator John Sparkman of Alabama, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, said he felt this it not the proper time for a special session.
 In the meantime, new stand ards being set up by Arnalrs agency, the Office of Price Sta bilization, apparently assured higher retail prices as a result of the steel, aluminium and copper price boosts recently granted.
 Arnall called on Truman last Wednesday. He handed in his re- Signation and urged the President to order a special session of Con- gress. Truman took no action on the resignation but said he was considering a special session.

Bulgaria Charges Greece
 With Smelling Gamma Is.

UNITED NATIONS, NY. .,P)- Communist Bulgaria charged Greece Friday night with "pro- vocative" and aggressive" action in shelling the disputed island of Gamma on the Greek-Bulgarian border. The accusation was made in formal Bulgarian protest to the United Nations.
 Bulgarian foreign minister Mintcho Neytchev cabled the LIN. that shells and mines fell on Bull garian territory during the Greek army's attack Thursday on the tiny spot of land in the Evros River.
 It was not clear whether he was charging that shells overshot their target and landed on the Bulgarian side of the river or whether he was referring to the island as Bulgarian territory. Both countries have claimed it.

Scientists Record Heart Beats Of Beluga Whale

SEATTLE, (P)-The heartbeats of small but maddened, thrash ing whale with two harpoons stinging its Hanks, has been re- corded on an electrocardiogram.
 The recording made from the giant fish beluga (white) whale = was similar to those of elephants and human but more nearly resembled an elephant.
 This first known successful tracing of a whales heartbeat on chart was reported by the men who conducted the tests in small motor boats on Alaska's Bristol Bay.
 They were Dr. Robert L. King of Seattle and Dr. Paul Dudley White of Boston Both men are heart experts. They believe study of the recording may give information which will help de- termine what the normal heart tracing of large human being should be.
 Late Thursday afternoon two harpoons thudded into the fat sides of a 15- foot long, 2,000 pound mammal. The whale plunged downward, came to the surface, thraShed about and plunged beneath the surface re- peatedly. It pulled the small boats wildly around the surface of the bay. The occupants hung onto the gunwales for dear life-all except James M. Jenks, president of the Sanborn Co.,, of Cambridge. Mass, makers of the electrocardiographS.
 He huddled over the machine, working desperately at its con- trolS.
 The galvanometer had picked up the whales heart action and the movement of the galvano- meter was photographed by camera built into the machine.
 The recording lasted two min ates, fulfilling the hopes and as- pirations of 12 years of research.

 provided by the Alaska Councils Field Executive for the Interior, Duane Force. At their own ex- pense, he brought two young men from his Fairbanks Area Camp staff to assist in the operation of the Pilgrim Springs venture.
 Scouting in the Midnight Sun District has grown from IA units in 1850 to 36 in 1852. With this increase in service responsibility the entire area has seen gen. eral increase in cost of operation. For this reason it is necessary to raise even more money for the Boy Scout program than was raised last year. The number of boys in troops and packs today in the interior has nearly doubled in two years and still other boys in other communities need and want the Scouting program.
 "You as businessmen and in dividuals in Nome, can help this program in it's operation and ex- pansion by contributing generous ly when the team workers ap- pr0ach," Arnett concluded.

Here visiting her sister, Mrs. Lorena Gray, is younger sister Grace Lincoln, a native daughter of Kotzebue and a. graduate of it's eighth grade school. Grace comes here from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where she has re- sided for the past five and a half years.
 After a three-year course at the ANS White Mountain School, fol- lowed by a years study at Wran- gell Institute in Southeastern Alaska, this ambitious young lady at the age of 16 travelled from her Arctic home to Philadelphia on the eastern seaboard of the United States.

Hay Standards Reflect
Feeding Quality

The U. S. hay standards do re-
feet differences in actual feeding
value, reports Delmar ]. Young.
Young, dairyman of the Della
ware Agricultural Extension Ser
vice, says that the higher the
grade of hay farmers put up or
buy, the more feeding value that
hay has. Young quotes studies
made at the U. S. Department or
Agriculture research center at
Beltsville, Md.
For example, one test compared
the feeding value of Mo. 2 Alfalfa
Light Grass Mined Hay and No. 8
Alfalfa Hay. Heifers fed the No.
2 ate 17:9 pounds of dry matter,
and gained one and three-quarters
pounds a day. The heifers fed the
No. ate a pound and half less
per day (16.3) and gained one and
four-tenths pounds per day, a
third of pound less than the heif-
ers fed on No. 2.
Another test compared No. 8
Leafy Green Lespedeza with Sam
pie Grade Green Extra Leafy Les
pedeza. The main difference is the
amount of foreign material. Re-
suits showed that four tone of the

Cover Crops Check
Splash Erosion

"An inch of rain falling on an
acre of land contains enough en-
ergy to plow that acre 10 times, or
the equivalent of some 100 horse
power"
That fact, measured by the U. S.
Navy Department, should be en-
ough to scare most farmers into
keeping their soil covered with a
good legume or grass. Cover crops
check this splash erosion which is
common to most types of soils,
says the Delaware Agricultural
Extension Service. Splash erosion
causes losses in soil and fertility,
damages soil structure, and can
actually injure plants and animals.
In certain sections of Tennessee,
cattle are believed to have been
poisoned by grazing on plants
which had been splashed with soils
containing nOuTlne.
The check such erosion, and to
improve soil fertility and soil
structure, the Extension Service
recommends growing adapted va
rieties of cover crops. You won't
get startling results in one year,
but cover crops plowed under can
build up a soil that produces DO
bushels of corn per acre, to one
that consistently produces 90
bushels or higher.

agent for recommended cover
crops in Delaware. Offices are in
Georgetown, Dover, and Newark.
