“Everything’s going to be all right now."
(Posed by Jean Parker, Walter Connolly and John B award.)
The focus of power in Europe has moved from the hanks of the
Thames to the banks of the Tiber.
John Bull goes to Rome hat in hand to ask the 20th century
Caesar on what terms British ships irtay continue to sail the Mediter-
ranean. The Mediterranean is “mare nostrum” again, or soon will
be, though the British flag floats over Gibraltar at the west and the
Suez Canal at the east.
Tuesday the house of commons voted to uphold Prime Minister And then the world may say.-—“There is a man.” i

Have gloried in your strength—a great oak tree

NOW SO ON WITH THE STORY
. Chapter Six
"Jordan wasn't in thia,” Captain
Grady explained. “They were lead-
ing him out when it happened.”
Mathews sighed with relief.
“Hawkins!" he yelled down the
stairs. "You’d better come out. You
can’t get away with this.”
“Too bad, Mathews," the prisoner
called back, "I’d like to for you,
but it’s too late now. And tell Grady
not to get gay with his tommy
gun. Remember Jordan’s here, too.
He didn’t have anything to with
thia”
Stratton Baker, Grimes County
deputy tax collector, recently called
my attention to the
cense tax situation wherein a small
percentage of county line people oc-
casionally purchase their license
plates in adjoining county seats. Mr.
Baker reported that this mopey Is
utilized in its’ entirety to maintain
county lateral roads and would urge
our loyal automobile taxpayers to
buy their license plates at Anderson.
I certainly think his thought worth-
while as well as timely and hope he
will secure the cooperation asked.
I7EW husbands cart understand
■T why a wife should turn from a
pleasant companion Into a shrew
for one whole week in every month.
You can say “I'm sorry” and
Idee and make up easier before
marriage than after. Be wise. If you
want to hold your husband, you
won't be a three-quarter wife.
For three generations one woman
has told another how to go "smil-
ing through” with Lydia E. Pink-

helps Nature tone up the system,
thus leeeenlng the discomforts from
the functional disorders which
women must endure in the three
ordeals of life: I. Turning from
girlhood to womanhood. 3. Pre-
paring for motherhood. 3. Ap-
proaching "middle age.”

Now, take this checkerboard—let’s call it Life,

WHAT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE

prison for ten years when he ac-
cidentally kills a man in a night
club brawl. For six years he
works in the prison jute mill and
ho is on the verge of a break-
down when Mathews, the district
attorney who sent him up, is
made warden of the prison.
Mathews takes Bill from the mill
and makes Mm his chauffeur.
Bill falls in love with the war-
den's daughter, Elisabeth. There
is a prison break, one of the con-
victs squeals and another prison-
er is killed. Later, when Elisa-
beth has gone away for a visit,
Bin witnesses the murder of
Ranch, the "squealer", by an-
other prisoner. Despite the foot
that he is up for parole. Bill re-
fuses to tell what he knows
about the murder. Mathews
sends him to solitary for a week
while he tries to solve the mur-
der. Elizabeth returns and hears
about Bill. She tells her father
she loves Bill and Mcthews

brought to his office. Bawkins,

Another guard came hurrying up
with more guns. Mathews grabbed
one. ‘ This is your last chanee, Haw-
kins," he cried.” "I'm going to turn “
the tear gas loose.”
There was silence for a moment
before Hawkins answered. “Okay,"
Hawkins called, “I’m coming.”
“Throw your gun out first,"
Grady ordered.
"Yeah!” was the derisive answer,
"an’ get shot when I come out” ?
"You won’t get shot,” Mathew*
said. “I promise, Hawkins.”
“Okay, Mathews, I trust you." A

to the floor. Almost simultaneously,
Mathews’ gun barked out and Haw-,

Chamberlain’s program of peace Kt any price with Continental dic-

From Paris comes word that the Freiich governjhent, bewildered\

Mussolini and Hitler can write their own ticket.
Chamberlain told the house of commons that it was his duty
to seek peace with the dictators and thus to avoid “the frightful
question of war.” Perhaps it was. But what chance has a nation
which is unwilling to fight for a principle against a nation which is
Willing, and even eager, to fight for what it wants! The world seems
to be dividing into nations determined to avoid war at any cost and
nations which make war an instrument of national policy.
There can be no doubt that the prime minister is acting for what j
he conceives to be the best interests of the British Empire. Failure
of Britain, France and the league of nations to make their good in-
tentions effective has afforded some excuse for this turn to a realistic
policy, modern euphemism for complete 'national selfishness,
The change in strategy pretty certainly reflects a leaning toward
fascism among the British tipper classes, though it does not yet ap-
pear how far the public-Supports the government in this move. Har-
rison Brown, English journalist who lectured here recently under
auspices of the Rotary Club, had this to say-in a Dallas newspaper
interview:
"in my opinion, Neville Ghamberlain is a menace to civilization.
Through his policy of subserviency to fascist dictators he and his
group sold out their own electorate, then the British Empire. Then
they (Sold out world peace through their deliberate sabotage of the
collective security system of the league of nations, and now indica-
tions are that they are trying to sell out world democracy.”
If the British Empire is sold out. it will be because the Chamber-
lain strategy failed to work. The principal object or trying to make
peace with the dictators is to save the empire at the conference table
rather than on the battlefield. Britain abandons her European allies
in order to hold her grip on the former German colonies in Africa!.
The prime minister and his nationalist friends do not propose that
one square mile of the empire on which the sun never sets shall pass
from British domination.
They may not be able to help it. When Britain joins the pack
ahe must expect to abide by the law of» the jungle. The world’s
largest landowner is preparing to enter a fraternity organized for
the prime purpose of getting more land for the original members.
British nationalists hope they will be satisfied with other nations’
land. But any friendship Britain wins from the dictators will be tinc-
tured with envy and contempt. Why should they respect Britain’s
interests as a professed friend, when it has been shown that they
have nothing to fear from her enmity?—Galveston News.
