LEST WE FORGET
By J. S. BOWLES
THIS MORNING as I taught my Sunday School lesson.
I race to face with the old question that has been uopermost
I came
The question has been disturbing
to the detriment of our war prep-
to en-
this instance was at-
in tlie minds of many people
io many, yid has been asked
amtion. ... _
aril may know who go to Sunday Sehodl. the esson was
Paul in the return of an es- bout the spirit thatactuated St
cape- slave to his master. From this I was attempting
- ■ ‘Ipy-r 'hr ", cr-d of the spirt! ot Paul who in
trmpting to enforce the altruistic spirit which is so needful in
the building of a social order that is really "worthwhile.
In order to enforce the thought on my mind I held up the
government at Washington as an eyampleof this spirit, and said
in substance, that the government had through this spirit since
coming .into power, saved thousands from starvation. At once,
one of our be,st men, one who had bought bonds and had done
aV. that he could to aid in war work, brought up the same old
question as to who was going to pay this great debt that was
gaining such great proportions. This, too, at the very moment
when the people are to be asked to subscribe many other mil-
iums. And. too, just when our boys are falling like autumn leaves
on the shores of France, yea, al1 over the world. Before this
teaches you this question will be asked thousands of times. I
tola my friend and the class that this was a matter of small
concern just at this time; there were matters of far greater Im-
portance which confronted us just now. Still the question wdll
not down, and many good men and women will be greatly dis-
couraged as they present this week the claims of our country.
Not long since a friend said to me that he would be com-
pelled to buy bonds but he felt that they would never be
paid. Doubtles this is the feeling of many.
The debt Is enormous and is iestined to be still greater. All
would do well to face the fact But to say that these bonds will
never be redeemed is preposterous and should not be enter-
Two contracts were awarded
Monday for work in Mills Coun-
ty on the highway from Oold-
thwaite to MulUn. The contract
for grading and drainage
awarded to L. T. Miles
Worth for 51,463.
Wednesday nlgnt J. J- Cock-
rells car was stripped in Big
Val ey and (he hose at the ser-
vice station In that community
was taken off. The same night
Wright Priddy’s car was stolen
from his place at Prlddy and run
off the highway a few miles out
on the Comanche road and
stripped of the motor and every
thing else detachable.
Roy Hunt, son of A. M. Hunt,
has inlUted in the United States
Navy and left Monday for Dallas
to undergo a physical examina-
tion preparatory to leaving for
San Diego, Calif.
Miss Lillie Martin, who Is a
traveling representative for the
Delineator company, came home
last week-end for a short visit.
Saturday morning D. B. Eaton
took a shot at a rabbit on ills
farm, and to his chargm, missed
his aim—the bullet glancing—
wav-diverted olf line some 25
feet, and entered the shoulder
of Jim Huffman. Mr. Huffman
was carried to a doctor for at-
tention.
Blake Hudson is still In Fort
Worth unoer the care of physic-
ians, but is getting along nicely
and is expected home in the
near future.
Mrs. R. L. Burns, who was very
sick in her home'in Coleman for
several weeks Is now in the hos-
pital in San x Anna and It Is

PRICE CONTROL BILL
The House last week passed a
hill to continue price control for
another year. It contains many
changes which it is believed will
improve the administration of
the law and at the same time
enable the government to hold
the line against excessive price
Increases
A conference committee of the
House and Senate will now have
to resolve differences between i
the two Houses before a final j
bill can be sent to the President. |
RIGHT TO APPEAL
The House adopted one im- ;
portant amendment, giving citi-
zens the right to appeal U) Fed- -
eral District Courts from regula-
tions, orders or price schedules.
The courts would tnerebv be
authorized to review specific
actions by the OPA with respect
to whether such orders complied
with the Price Contrul Act.
Heretofore that right has not
existed.

phasised anew. • •
■The "times are out of joint. MU-
lions of men and women are meeting
new problems and temptations. The
standards of life they learned tn
home and church or Sunday school
are not too easy to maintain.
Many are hearing that old excuse
(or laxity. "Man, you're in the
army, now,” or "Don't forget you re
not at home with Mother; you're in
the navy." Civilians have similar
tempting excuses for careless liv-
ing. drinking, etc.

E .some one asks: "Where is the money to come from?"
It will be paid just as is any of your private debts. You make
d*bts without any certain knowledge as to how you are to meet
them. Then as these debts come due, you pay the interest and
make sotr.e payments on the principal and carry the rest along

gations in full.
Can any suppose that a great, wealthy, proud government

It reached into billions? No. never, never. All will be paid and
•» should take that view of the matter and subscribe to the limit,
and then see that payment is not requested except in case of dire
necessity.

thousand battlefields, are not raisiryg any questions. They are

Health Notes
One of the most important
factors contributing to the well-
being of summer vacationists is
A'safe and healthful water sup-
ply Contaminated water is the
annual cause of much sickness
and many fatalities. Water
from sources not known to be
Mfe should never be used to
supply vacation needs.
Dr. Geo. W. Cox. State Health
Officer stated this week that
const municipal water supplies
ta Texas are periodically ln-

from a private well, Dr. Cox ad-
vised vacationists to look for
these protective features: a
well-site protected from flood-
ing with good drainage, and a
concrete platform surrounding
the pump. The pump Itself
should be securely mounted on
the platform, should have a rod
that enters the top through
(jacking, and should have a
turned-down spout. Contamin-
ated water is usually found In
wells with open wood platforms,
pits underneath the pump,
openings where the pump rod
enters the pump, and In pumps
that require priming to operate.

The House adopted two im-
portant amendments to the
Price Control Act that will be
of benefit to farmers and live-
stock producers.
One of these amendments, of-
fered by, Congressman Kleburg.
would prohibit the government
from paying a subsidy to pro-
cessors who buy hogs, wheat,
and cattle until such process-
ors first submit satisfactory evi-
dence that they have paid to the
producers of hogs, wheat and
cattle the parity price fixed un-
der the Stabilization Act there-
for.
This amendment will not in-
crease" the cost of anything to
the consumer, but it will prevent
processors from paying the pro-
ducer less than parity and then
getting a subsidy on the theory
he did pay parity prices to the
producers. ‘
Another important amend-
ment adopted was one offered
of the land, at the king's expense
anti m ptet-ttmeittn f'T Hta M-rv lOe
The king provided for them the
delicacies of his household, thinking j
thus to keep them strong and in
good’health. Daniel recognized that
many of these things were unclean
according to the laws of his (H-ople.
He also knew that to cat such food
and to drink the intoxicants provid-
ed for them would be to injure his
health and cut down his ability to
learn.
It w as no easy thing to ask to be
excused from what the king had
commanded, not to do what every-
body else was doing; but Daniel had
a courageous purpose "in his heart."
But Daniel had the wisdom to be
tactful about his convictions. He
went to Uie king's steward with—
II. A Considered l’lsn (vv. 9 13).
He had .something thoughtfully
worked out. a fair proposal which
would not endanger the life or stand-
ing of the prince who was over
them. He proposed a test, and
agreed, if it failed, to be subject to
further orders. He knew it would
not fail
How often those who have it In
their heart to stand true to God
against evils, such as beverage al-
cohol. have no plan in mmd, and
are only loud and tactless In their
condemnation. They make no con-
hi* shoulder.

The processors are allowed to
Include this price in computing
the price they charge for the
commodity after it has been
processed.
But these processors don't al-
ways pay to the farmer or pro-
ducer such price as the law con-
templates.
By the Pace amendment, the
processor, In order to get the
maximum price for the process-
ed commodity, must submit
proof that such payments have
been mads to the farmers or
producers. Unless he can ehow,
