Increase for Judges, etc.

Judge Laws recently cited as partial
reasons for increased pay that he was
forced to resign from several clubs; that
his son ran sandwich concession
while attending college. and that his
daughters had to work summers in
order to make ends meet. Thousands
Of boys and girls work summer and
winter. year after year. To work with
ones hands towards independence and
greatness is the real American birth
right.
The following great Americans would
readily agree with this premise: Carne-
gle. Edison, Ford. Rockefeller and VAN
derbilt. Consider Ford as an example:
He attended school until is, working
on farm after school hours and during
vacations; at Is he worked 10 hours per
day in machine shop for $3.50 per week.
and evenings from to IL with jeweler
for 81 per week. In our own time, the
late DR.. Peter Marshall dug bitches
among other things to help make ends
meet on his way up. This man, how
ever. was following in the footsteps Of
the Carpenter Of Nazareth, and made
no excuse or apology for such back
breaking but honest endeavor.
Membership in several clubs is not
conducive to efficient service or living
within ones means. and no one need
apologize for hard work we'll done Any
bodys son is fortunate to have a con-
cession to sell hot dogs at college Com
paratively speaking. this is making
money the easy way. Let more boys
work their way entirely through college.
Let them come up the hard way, and
thereby more appreciative. considerable,
and self-reliant men will be developed,
which is our country's greatest need
today.

Lutheran Society
Plans Supper And
Movie Sunday Mite

The Dorcas Society Of the Grace
Lutheran Church will hold a pic
mic supper on the church grounds
Sunday evening, June q, at 500
o'clock.
Frankforts and rolls, potato
chips, cold drinks and cup cakes
are on the menu. All friends and
members are cordially invited to
attend.
Following the supper, at about
Z o'clock, the motion picture. ''The
Sickle or The Cross" will be
shown in the church.
The conflict between Commun-
ism and Christianity is wildly
portrayed by cast of top-ranking
actors in the full length movie
which was made at the Hal Roach
Studios in Hollywood.
The plot revolves around the
unbelievable cunning with which
the Communists bring to Amer
lea one of their comrades called
''X-14."
He succeeds in fooling an en-
tire church into believing that he
is missionary. He plans to dis
credit Christianity until one day
he is face to face with the firm
faith of Christian boy.
From that moment, Comrade
X-14 realizes the genuineness Of
Christianity, accepts Christ, and
public gives testimony of his
faith.
This picture is one that every
one should see. 1t is one that
none will ever forget.
