Revenge

The spirit Of getting even is
a dastardly attitude which plays
havoc with our human relations
Picture a swamp at the bottom
Of hill. If someone has wronged
you miserably, and both of you
were put into that picture, where
would you be? You'd be on the hill.
The person who injured you would
be down in the swamp. And the
only way for you to get even is
to 90 into the swamp where he is.
But nine chances out of ten YOU
can bring him up to the hill where
YOU are by forgiving him, doing
him a good turn, hard as that is.
He'll then be so ashamed Of him
self he'll try making up for the
wrong he committed To be kind
to someone who mistrcats you is
to overcome evil with good. This
is the Biblical recommendation for
revenge, the word that can change
your life.

Specialists at the University of
Maryland have made some timely
suggested tips for farm jobs in
Maryland, during the month of
July. These suggestions are the
same for every county. The same
is true with all news articles writ
ten by specialists at the University.
The following suggestions are
published hoping they will be worth
your time reading them. The para
graph on accidents is especially
good and timely.
Agricultural Engineering
Farmers who have been involved
in farm accidents listed these main
causes of accidents: Too much hur-
ny and rush, over fatigued, not
enough sleep, too long a working
day, carclessness, and disregard for
safety shields and precautions.
Take time to adjust, grease and
service your tractor and farm ma
chimes. A properly adjusted ma
chine is a safe machine. Power
take-off shields on mowers only
protect you when they are in their
proper place. How many extra pas
sengers can you carry on your
tractor? Falls by extra riders
stands second on the list of causes
Of tractor accidents. In injuries by
age groups small children aged l.
4 stand second to the highest group,
aged 1919 years. BE alert with ma
chinery.
If you are NOW drying chopped
hay, try blowing the hay along each
side of the air duct FIRST, then cap
over the top. This method of cover
ing the duct makes it easier to get
started and prevents excess loss of
air through wads of hay that fall
over the sides of the duct when you
try to load center duct from di-
rectly over the top. 1t also makes
for better air distribution later. If
you are drying balcd hay put the
cut side toward the air. These sug-

for several years it has been shown
that the addition of ] 5 to 30 per-

as temporary treatment in feather

spend more time at the drinking
fountain and have less free time
for picking feathers. Increasing the
fiber content of the ration has also
been helpful The tips given here
may not help in all instances but
proper diagnosis of the causes of
the trouble can certainly go a long
way in helping to decide on a meth
cd of prevention.

Arthur KoestIer Writes,
Of His Life in Communism
The Invisible Writing
BY Arthur Koestler. fMacmillan;; S5J
Reviewed by Mary McGroy

In this fourth and final vol
ume of his autobiography, Ar
thur Koestler leads his readers
over much territory that is
familiar to readers Of his scar
ing novels of disillusioned rev.
olutionaries. AS always. the
most powerful excommunist
writer is a harsh. exacting
guide. Years of peaceful
English life have not mellowed
him nor inclined him to think
more kindly Of those who do
not know what he knows.
Yet, Mr.. Koestler himself did
not know what he knows for
seven long years. From 1881 to
1888, he was devoted Com
munist, a trained observer
who refused to believe the evi-
dence Of his eyes and ears. a
visionary so rapt by the
Utopian dream that not even a
year in Russia-"the over
whelming bleakness Of an in
dustrialized Neanderthal" -
woke him up, nor even the
first years of the Great Purge
in Moscow.
Some Suicidal Errors
So when he says, "It. is
doubly painful to write about
these seven years at a time
when the mood of Western
Europe is bent on repeating
the same suicidal errors" the
reader has the urge to talk
back to him. If all fellow
travellers and still-bedazzled
liberals had to have the scales
stripped from their eyes by an
ordeal as narrowing and COM
plete as Koestler's there would
be little hope. Koestler's
novels are surely the most
eloquent and effective anti
Communist tracts Of our gen.
Grafton. Koestler as Koestler
is somehow less unanswerable.

characters who were young in
the '20s are seen as they were
then and some Is years later.
The story shifts constantly be-

lege days are described in a
manuscript which the author,
Peter Foley, a professor of
Latin in later life, called "The
Captivity" and is always on
the point of burning. The later
time is told in third-person
narrative, from Foley's view
point. Unfortunately, these
characters are not very inter-
esting, nothing much happens
to them and too much of the
long story reads as If the
author was hard put to COM
plete it. Some episodes are de-
scribed in the manuscript and
then repeated in the flash
ahead. But why? Much of
F'oley's later story, when he
is middle-aged, merely de-
scribes street scenes and i'm

Mr.. Costain has told the
whole story from Jacques Car
tiers pioneering voyages into
the st. Lawrence in 1884 and
later to the zenith of the
French regime near the end of
the 18th century.
It is an irony of history that
while the French discovered
Canada and settled 1t, the
first expedition to this part
Of the New World went out
from Bristol, England, in
1497 and reached Cape Bre-
ton Island, as it later became
known. The explorer was
John Cabot, also called Ca
boote," who, like Columbus,
was a native Of Genoa. But
the English failed to follow
up Cabot's lead, at least for
a century.
Although MIR. Costain won
popularity as a romancer, his
history is meticulous. as accu-
rate as research can make it.
Where he inserts episodes

Thomas K. Finletter, Secre-

He presents this thesis:
The United States does not

There ought to be a realistic

that the Nation cannot have

people. He did not him
self believe in liberal princi-
ples-in fact, a gentle and
melancholy skeptic. he believed
in very few things at all-but
he proved to be a shrewd
compromiser and to possess
great commonsense. He lacked
the element of evangelism
which might have made him
great. He was merely ex-
tremely useful.
The Queens Mentor
How could this man, who re-
manned an alien element in
political affairs all his life,
summon the courage to stick
with them? Why did he want
to? One answer is found in
the person Of the slender,
pretty girl of 18 who became
England's Queen in 1889. AS
Prime Minister it was Mel
bourne's duty to guide the
naive young Queen. There Is
tender drama in the relation
ship between the young. un-
spoiled Queen and her worldly
ruler. She appreciated his
qualities and his practical yet
imaginative approach. He
gave her balance and the his
torical outlook even If he did
not instill in her that toler-
ance which was his.
This story of two lives Of
one man in two Englands is
beautifully conceived and writ
ten. Lord Cecil is writing about
a man of the world, wise, witty
and urbane. They are qualities
he himself obviously admires
and they mark his own out
look and style. He has recre-
ated q minor figure in q bril-
liant and understanding way.

Melbourne

It was Lord Melbourne's
fate to be the symbolic bridge
, between the dissolute regency
England and circumspect Vic
torian England.
The two eras are drama
tized in his life by the two
women who meant most to
him; mad. scandalous Caro-
lima Ponsonby, his wife, and
Queen Victoria, who gave her
name to reSpectability. These
two extraordinary women had
more in common than you
might think. Melbourne's life
with them divides his hiog-
raphy into two neat halves.
In the first, originally pub
lished in this country Is years
ago as 1.-THE Young Mel
bourne" we meet a handsome,
dashing young man, a contra
diction of the young man of
fashion who was also a stu
dent. The world he built for
himself toppled about him
with the excesses and inf1deli-
ties of his temperamental,
hysterical young wife with her
notorious affairs with Lord
Byron and many other rakes.
Social Revolution
After Caroline's death, Mel
bourne appeared upon the
political scene as a leader of
the moderate Whig Party. He
rose to become Prime Minister.
His ministry was a middle way
one, poised between the con-
servative House of Lords and
the radicals in the House of
Commons. England was chang
ing. The old aristocratic way
was yielding to demands for
greater representation for the

membership. he was stayed
from overt criticism by the hor-
ror Of "heresy, Of blasphemy.
of accommodation" He con-
stantly compares the early
Communists to the early
Christians. What finally made
him break was not any one
external event, but a kind Of
spiritual Transformation that
overlook him during four
months of solitary conflne-
ment in an Andalusian jail
during the Spanish Civil War.
He has summarized the change
in a wonderful passage at the
beginning ct his book.
In Invisible Ink
"I regarded the universe as an
open book, printed in the Ian
guage of physical equations
and social determinants.
whereas now it appears to me
as a text written in invisible
ink, of which in our rare mo-
ments of grace we are able to
decipher a small fragment"
That is the essence Of this
story, which tells in great de-
tail of his year in Russia, his
propaganda work in Paris amid
intrigue and suspicion and his
efforts in behalf of the "Popu-
lar Front" when the adroit
Willy Muenzenberg could mo-
bilize any number of big Eng
lish and American names in
the cause Of anti-Fascism.
Much of this material, and
many of the people introduced
the postscript of too many
of them, is "they vanished with
the rest'-may not be of burn
ing interest to the general
reader. What is fascinating
are the slashing summaries Of
Koestler about personal and
international blunders during
those seven years, which for
him, Koestler says had the
superiority Of a beautiful error
over a shabby truth"
