When you've decided to get
that puppy, there are many tips
TO help you in his selection and
care. You can get these in a free
16 page booklet, "Care for your
new dog" just write to Purina
Dog Care Division, Checkerboard
Square, St. Louis 2, Mo.
The booklet reveals that there
is nothing wrong in taking a
puppy out in winter rain or
snow. A blanket of fat under the
skin keeps him warm. and close
fitting hair insulates him from
cold. But always thoroughly dry
him when returning to the house.
If the pup leaves his dish with
food still in it or stops to gaze
into space-you are feeding him
too unnch. RemevS tn the plate after
thirty minutes and feed less the
next day.
Here's a tip to keep your dog

4 small bench grinder is an
asset to any home or farm work
shop.
It is SO small-only 10 inches
long-that it can be attached to
your workbench or stored below
and never be in the way Further
more, it has many of the same
features of larger, more expen-
sive models used by maintenance
and repair men.
This particular speed grinder is
powered by a A-inch motor and
has two Az by %-inch wheels,
fine and coarse grit. Among its
features are eye shields, water
cooling tray, and adjustable tool
rests.
An electric bench grinder is
an asset to any home or farm
shop because it can sharpen sucn
tools as chisels, knives, draw
knives, plane blades, axes, drill
bits, garden and field tools.

this speed grinder write to Thor

QUESTION: I have noticed
that many of the new portable
electric drills have spade-grlp
handles as well as the common
pistol-grip. Which one is best Tor
the workshop?
ANSWER: Manufacturers nave
introduced the spade-grip handle
to their home-shop tool line TO
give the home and farm crafts
man a wider range Of selection.
Usually it is a case of personal
preference, because there is ht-
tie to choose between the spade

ease of handling in mind.

refusing this year to make the

They made the dangerous Jour-
ney all last year on the promise
that school would be built by
this fall. but no school was built.
The SCEF meeting urged that the
2S children, the only Negro pupils
in the county, be integrated into
schools now reserved for whites.
the Negro pupils have petition

refused.
Friends of SCEF were asked
to protest to Gov. Luther Hodges

Too many of us have tos-
sed aside the idea that some of
the school books used in our
schools are teaching our young
people the wrong outlook on
life and encouraging the COM
munist state. 1t seems to be
the practice nowadays to white
wash too many things that are
warping the lives of our young
er people. The OAR has called
attention to text books that are
unAmerican and so far is not
being even considered by pro-
per authorities. We just won

gone and the love of our coun-
try disappeared. We would
fight the intrusion of a rattle
snake in our home yet we new

sly and insiduous ways of COM
munism entering our commun-

our people or will they wait I'M

against an avowed enemy to
our way of life. Apathy is
like an opiate, its dulls our
best reasoning.
What is liberty worth to you?
Historians will marvel most of
all at the non-resistance of
those who had the most to lose.
The people of our nation are
suffering more and more from
a defeatist attitude. We are
failing to show the backbone
that took our forefathers to
give us what we have today.
We have become a people
who look for the easy way out.
We glance at problems we are
faced with and then turn away.
We can not do this forever
without losing the liberties we
enjoy. We are permitting a

Americans are engaging and more in sweeping

Archibald MacLeish, Harvard professor, author,

Writing in the Saturday Review the question

the pressures upon to turn out more engineers,
scientists and other specialists to compete with the

He fears that if really should respond to these
pressures and develop sort of productonne system of

heart and essence of American life.

Mr.. Blackwood continued, and the
result is that "you cannot blame
the African for thinking he will
get out of the federation of N.Y.

hope of it.
The idea of a federation of Rho

Mr.. Blackwood said that 1--WE

land) must obviously be a black
state in the end - as long as it

But he declined to define the
prerogative of such "state," and

cred maintenance of the federation
far more important than the de-
sires of the 1915 per cent African
majority in Nyasaland.
