Of this comparison, of course,
you would have to hear both

same style.
The most arresting feature
of a good guitar recital is the
realization that the literature
of flute and guitar, far from
being negligible or esoteric, is
comparable to that of the harp

haps only the great peaks-the
Clavierubung or the Diabelli

an extraordinary work which
calls for a soprano voice-and
a superb musician she must be

the mood changes. and Schoen-

quality of bittersweetness so

Dear P. D.
After reading DR.. BENEFITS let
ter in Aug 9th issue ! was in
hopes that someone would res
pond to such an infantile sugges-
ton, (of having the Ten Com
mandments on the front wall of
all classrooms) since you have
readers who display considerable
intelligence in their letters. 1t
may seem rather harsh to call the
suggestion infantile, but I can't
help wondering how it happens
that people who can read and
write and who must have read
what has gone on in the past
1900 years, do not learn anything
from history! Someone said that
the only thing that we learn from
history is that we do not learn
anything from history. 5
Yet, with all that history has to.
teach in regard to mere preach
ing and teaching, must we still go
on with the same methods that
found favor in the past when we
were supposed not to have had
the experience as people that
we have now? When went to
Sunday School many years ago /
read the Ten Commandments and
The Sermon on the Mount with
out questioning anything that
was said about them. But later on
in my boyhood I observed that
tho they preached the Sermon on
the Mount they did not observe
what the words was supposed to
teach and the same held good re-
garding the Commandments. I
took the command thou shalt not
kill" so seriously to heart that I
determined not to join the Ma
tional Guard when I grew up, al
tho my father had been a member
for seven years.
Laws are not made before the
events which they forbid. 1t was
because all the acts that the
Commandments forbid were a
part of the. lives of the Jews at
that time, as well as of all other
races, that Moses had to write the
Commandments. Supposedly we
should have learned better by
this time; but have we? When the
xxx. invited me to join them
they added "and be on the side
of the Lord. And you may be
sure that all the members of the
W.C.C. are members of tn e
Christian Church and have read
the Commandments and the Ser
mon. What difference has it made
to them?
To put the Ten Commandments
into the public schools would be
equivalent to forcing religion on
to the young, contrary to our
Constitution. Have not the 'sju-
veniles" heard the Command
ments since they were able to lis
ten to moral teaching, and have
they not read: Ye have heard that
it hath been said, An eye for an
eye, and a tooth for tooth?
sBut l say unto you, That we
resist not evil, etc.?
The fact of the matter is that a
mong the boys that I knew, most
of them had heard so much "a
bout Christian teachings that they
got sick and tired of them and as
soon as they were old enough to
decide for themselves they quit
the Sunday School, yet none of
them became delinquints, SO far
as / know. 1t could have been, as
it was of my Immediate friends,
that they commenced to think for
themselves and did not need such
primitive commands as "Thou
shalt not have other gods before
Me-. What was meant by the
word God when the command i'm
piled that there could be other
gods? Is it not evident that the
commands were made to print
tive people? Is it not evident that
we are still in the primitive stage

Nor is the tragedy the fear so

individual Negro nor even as a

Negro threatens is not the South

the Southern white mans eco

and dares not admit to himself is
established on an obSoleScence -

with no chance, might do SO

Broiler Feeding
Key To Profits

committee. Some of this pro-
gress can be credited to scien-
tifically formulated rations but
growers also are in line for
share of the credit.
AS a grower you determine
the efficiency of your operation
by figuring the cost per pound
of meat produced. You can't af-
ford to be satisfied with the pro-
greSS made to date. To remain
in business and compete with
other broiler producing areas
you need to continuously strive
to increase efficiency and de-
crease your cost of production.
The extension poultrymen
with the universities serving the

that cost of feed represents so
to 70 percent of the cash cost
of producing broilers today.

where the greatest potential
saving can be made.
Rapid growth is important
because it increases the total
tonnage of meat sold at any Civ
en- age and in turn increases the
possible profit. There is a ten
dency also for rapid growth and
good feed conversion to go
along together. Birds have to
consume feed for rapid growth
but not waste it as this will
show up as a poor conversion.
AS broiler grower you are
interested in practices that will
give you rapid growth and good
conversion. Here are some re-
concentrations:
Ha We thoroughly-c e n e d
chick feeders or box lids set
around the brooders before the
chicks arrive. Use any arrange
ment that will let the chicks get
to the feeders whenever they
want and be sure to let some of
the feeders run under the hover.
The easier it is for chicks to find
feed, the more they will eat.
The feed troughs should be
kept clean and free from litter
and filth, otherwise there will
be decreased feed consumption.
BY adjusting the lip of the feed
er to the height of the birds
back you will not only keep lit
ter out of the feed but you will
reduce the amount of feed that
the bird is able to "bill'' out OF
the feeder. Feed in the litter
does not produce meat.
Another factor that will re-
duce the feed waste is not fill
ing the feeders too full if you
are using troughs. Trough feed
ers should not be filled more
than one-third full or there will
be excessive billing" out.
AS the birds grow older keep
adjusting the height of the feed
ers and make sure you have q
sufficient number of feeders. The
number and distribution of feed
ers is just as important as tota
feeding space. Too few feeders
regardless of their length, result
in crowding and some birds not
getting their fair share. The
Keep Delmarva Growing" com
mittee recommends at least 20

using hanging feeders. Also
some poultrymen recommend,
when using hanging feeders,
shaking them down 3 times
daily when chickens are under
five weeks of age and four or

It's the small details that
mean the difference between a
good or poor quality broiler-

or loss. Let's pay attention to

That was just one of the inter-
