Store Fall Crops
For Winter Use

Fall crops can be stored through
part of the winter, or even through
the entire winter, if few easy
conditions are met.
The crops that should be stored
are carrots, beets, turnips, ruta-
bagas, sweet potatoes, pumpkins,
acorn squash, onions and white po-
tatoes.
Two essentials of good storage
are proper temperature and hu-
Nudity. Easements meet the con
ditions for pumpkins, acorn squash
and sweet potatoes. For practically
all other vegetable crops the stor-
age temperature should be just
above freezing. The temperature
range between 30 and 80 degrees
Fahrenheit is best.
For basement storage, a room
as far away from the furnace as
possible should be partitioned off
with Insulating wall board. The
room should have a tlght-tlttng
door and Slated floor laid on top
Of the basement floor. A wooden
flue should extend from TINS false
(slatted) floor to a window open
ing to the outside. The window
should be screened and lett open
Most root crops can be stored

Hear

Are you one of those many
people who only half-hear what is
being said to them? A druggist
friend Of mine, from curious inter
est, decided to test the hearing of
woman customer one morning.
She asked him to change ten
dollar bill, and he replied very
seriously, "Do you want three fives
or a five and five ones? ?" The wo-
man answered that she'd better
take the five and five ones because
the maid was coming and she
ought to have some ones with
which to pay her. well, / can do
it either way" my druggist friend
repeated. "I'Il give you a five and
five ones or you may have the
three fives if you wish" The Gus
toner insisted on the five and five
ones. She only half-heard him.
(Men aren't any better.)
This doesn't happen only in a
drug store. Speak to some people
about religion and they are phras-
ing a new question to ask the very
moment you are answering the one
they did ask. Consequently, they
only half-hear. How is it with you?

g Million Members Is Goal
OF Southern Boptists in 1854

everywhere in the downtown
section.
This huge crowd is primarily
the reason why plans to hold
the 1855 convention in Washing
ton were changed. Inability to
find a place large enough to hold
such an outpouring and the fall
ure to guarantee hotel accom-
modations for probably an even
larger number of visitors
prompted withdrawal of the orig
inal invitation. The 1855 meet
ing probably will be held in
Miami, Fla.
DR.. Willingham Appointed.
DR.. Edward B. Willingham,
pastor of National Baptist Me-
mortal Church, Washington, was
appointed to the key Committee
on Committees yesterday.
The convention went on rec
ord yesterday as favoring social
security benefits for ministers
provided the contract could be
made between a clergyman as
an individual and the govern
ment. This provision seeks to
keep the Baptist position of
separation Of churchs and State
intact while allowing its pastors
to take part in the social security
act.
If the above provision could
not be made, the convention &C
cepted an alternative resolution
permitting both "the minister
and the employing organization"
(church) to elect coverage so
the clergyman could participate
in the Federal act.
Since individual Baptist
churches are not bound by any
convention action, they can
elect to follow the recommends
tions or not. But usually congre-
cations affiliated with the ma
tional body accept it's actions.

Truman Cancels Speeches
To Work on His Memoirs
BY the Assoeioted Press

CLEVELAND, June 3.-Former
President Truman has Cancelled
a speech he was scheduled to
give Tuesday at a luncheon
sponsored by organized labor
here.
Expressing regret. Mr.. Tru-
man said last night he was call
ing off all his June and July
appointments in order to catch
up on back work on his memoirs
for Life magazine.
Because the speech was can
celed, the Cleveland Labor Com
mittee for Human Rights called
off the Human Relations Insti-
tute, a joint CIO-AFL enter
prise.
The speech was to have been
the main event of the institute,
and Mr.. Truman was to have
received an award from the
Jewish Labor Committee, which
works closely with labor on civil
rights.

ST. LOUIS, June 3.-Southern
Baptists expect to reach the 8
million mark in lnembefs during
1854. q report released today
said.
N. P. Edmunds, secretary of
the Survey, Statistics and Infor-
nation Department of the Bap-
tist Sunday School Board, rev
ported to the 9th session Of the
Southern Baptist convention
that the denominations 29,496
churches now have 1886, ,016
members.
Mr.. Edmunds said that not
only will the 8 million member
ship mark be surpassed this
year, but he also predicted that
Sunday School enrolment will
go over the 6 million goal.
The depomination's growth
was accentuated when the re-
port pointed out that nearly two
new Southern Baptist churches
were organized every day during
1853.
If the conventions rapid ad-
vance continues it conceivably
will challenge within a few years
the position of the Methodist
Church as the largest Protestant
group. The latter has approx
mately 90 million members and
nearly 10000 churches.
32,186 in District.
Latest statistics for the Dis
trict Of Columbia reveals 32,186
members in Al churches. But a
complete account of Southern
Baptist churches in the WASH
ington area is difficult since
many nearby churches in Vir-
ginia and Maryland are included
in the reports for those States.
DR.. James w. Storer of Tulsa,
Okla, pastor of the First Baptist
Church there, probably will be
reelected as convention presi-
dent today. The convention
opened yesterday.
Other officers expected to seek
reelection are DR.. Edwin H.
Westmoreland of Houston, Tex,
first vice president; Joe w. Bur-
ton of Nashville, Tenn, secretary,
and Porter w. Routh. treasurer.
Will Replace Pair.
Two officers died during the
last year and successors to their
Offices will be chosen today.
They were the Rev. Robert C..
Campbell of Shelby, N. c., sec
ond vice president. and George
B. Fraser of Washington, senior
secretary. Mr.. Fraser, who was
prominent for many years in the
District Baptist Convention,
served as chairman of the con-
vention's Executive Committee
and in other important posts.
More than $4,000 messengers
and visitors from % States and

Work-A Great Blessing

1t is obvious that we all must
work, for we cannot live without it,.
For food. shelter, and the necessi-
ties of life we must constantly la
Dor. The greater part Of our lives
we must spend working, therefore
we should try very hard to find
the work we like and are happy
doing.
BY work we mean any form of
productive activity, physical or
mental. There are many thousands
of Jobs that fall into these classes,
so there should be one that suits
our own personal likes and taste.
Work develops talents we have
and creates new ones. Henry Ford
developed his automobile by slow
and painstaking labor. Edison
found the secret of the electric
light bulb only after long sustained
effort. So it has been with every
great invention. These men knew
little about their inventions at the
beginning, yet they had dream,
and as they worked new field of
knowledge opened up before them,
new skills developed, and today
you and | live better and more
comfortably because these men
and countless others like them
loved to work.
Work develops and keeps US
physically and mentally fit, and
if we constantly try to serve God
in our work, it will develop and
keep US fit spiritually If We live
in accordance with His law and
love, our work can continually de-
velop our Christian character.
One thing never ceases to
amaze me, and that is the fact
that many young people in college
have gone several years, and yet
they do not know what they plan
for their life's work. | would not
see how they would even know
which courses to take. | would say
early in life we should decide, with
the aid of guidance counselors, par

then make some decision.
Many people are unhappy in
their work, because they have no
interest in it. Interesting work de
lays or prevents fatigue. Much of
the WEAKNESS we feel is a weari-
ness of the mind, not of the body.
1t is boredom which creates our
tired feelings. Let something inter
esting happen and our fatigue
vanishes. When our work is inter-
csting, we can work for long hours
without being tired
In our Sunday School class last
Sunday as we discussed this I'M
portant subject of work, the ques-
ton was asked if we liked our
present jobs. Everyone in the class
was happy in her job. One was a
teacher, one a public health nurse,
and the rest of us were rural
homcmakers. We felt the Jobs we
were doing were important, and
that we made a contribution by DO
ing them.
