What Will Be Fate Of
Needy When Relief Ends?
When President Roosevelt present-
ed his relief> plans last year before
Congress, he was of the opinion that
the seven million able bodied people
without work could be given jobs in
the following manner: Half would be
put to work on federal work projects
and the remaining half would be ab-
sorbed by industry in their improved
condition; then the States would take
care of the persons physically unable
to work. The government by the end
of the year will have most of their
half placed at some type of labor;
but industry has failed to make a
dent in their half, which leaves the
country in a unhappy state. Individ-
ual states and local communities
may have to take over a large por-
tion of the burden.
Damaged Baking Soda
Fatal to Californians
Last October, a San Francisco re
tail store began selling to its work
ing class clientile bulk baking soda
salvaged from damaged containers of
a nationall known brand. Since then
several deaths have occurred, the
cause being traced to the baking
soda. Newspapers and radios warned
the 1,000 families who had bought
the powder at cut rates. Joseph Ros-
enthal, an executive of the store,
swore by his commodity, took a dose
to prove his faith and nearly died from
the effects.

Mountain for Thanksgiving
President Roosevelt was in his
trim white cottage at Warm Springs,
Georgia early this week as he pre-
pared to attend Thanksgiving service
with the 300 infantile paralysis pa-
tients at the Warm Springs Founda-

With him for advice concerning the

ing to slash the budget by a billion
dollars.

Odds and Ends From
Around the World
Vice President John Garner of
Texas celebrated his 67th birthday
somewhere out in the Pacific Ocean
last Saturday. . . Work was hastened
on five of the United States Navy’s
16 new submarines last week on the
eve of the world conference to limit
naval armaments. . . Since Septem-
ber of this year over $563,000,000 in
foreign gold has flowed into this
country and is still increasing.
Business continued to improve during
week, with retail stores set for
promising holiday rush. . . Roosevelt

how they capture Italian tanks: Cut
the tanks off from their other ranks,
lead them to land which has been

soon leap from the red hot steel
tanks.
EDITORIAL

It was the brave fighting of these
men that has made the Centennial
possible.

To usher in the Thanksgiving sea-
son, a group of friends complimented
Miss Julia Golden, bride-elect of Mr.
Joseph Solberg with a miscellaneous
shower, Saturday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. Glen Ringness. Mrs.
Ringness was assisted by Miss Olive |
Jurdis Dahl and Miss O’Belle Omen-
(Mrs. Jack Smith)
son.
As the guests arrived they were
asked to register in the bride’s book,
which was in the form of a Puritan
Miss, and which was presided over by
Miss O’Belle Omenson, and then they
were served punch and Beliner Krand-
ser by Miss Elmyra Bronstad. Miss
Olive Jurdis Dahl pinned a little Pur-
itan hat, with the inscription, “Julia
and Joseph, Dec. 1, 1935” written on
it, on each guest as a favor.
After the arrival of the honoree,
the guests were given _ a part of a
turkey and- instructed to find the
other part in order to form partners
for the contests which followed.
After the contests an enjoyable
program was given which consisted
of:
Vocal Duet, “I Love You Truly”—
Mrs. M. L. Solberg and Miss Ethel
Bronstad.
Toast to the Bride—Miss Ruby
Mae Rogstad.
Toast to the Groom—Mrs. Milton
Dahl.
Toast to the Girls Left Behind—
Miss Evelyn Omenson.
Immediately after the program,
Owen David Ringness, dressed as a
Puritan, came in pulling a little cov-
ered wagon, filled with gifts for Miss
Golden, telling her, “Julia, you have
other things to be thankful for be-
sides Joseph.”
When each gift had been admired
by all, the honoree expressed her
appreciation for the tokens of friend-
ship presented her.
The afternoon came to a close all
too soon. Each guest departed after
expressing their best wishes for the
bride-to-be and after thanking the
hostesses for a most delightful after-
noon. —A Guest.

Mexican jumping bean is the pop-
ular name given to the seed pods of
the small shrub known as the swamp
tree which grows in Mexico and in
the southwestern part of the United
States. The pods are also known as
bronco beans. When the tree is in
bloom the gray tortricid moth lays
its eggs in the blossoms. After the
eggs hatch the pod serves as a com-
partment for the larvbe. The popular
names of the bean come from the

United States and Canada
Make Public Trade Agreement
The trade agreement between the
United States and Canada was made
public last week. Despite the large
play it received in the papers few
people besides the lobbyists were in-
terested enough in it to read the pact
from beginning to end. Many nice
protective tariffs worked up by the
lobbyists and Republicans came tum-
bling down. Herbert Hoover imme-
diately made a condemnation state-
ment reeking of political partisan-
ship. Newspapers were of the opinion
great good would come of the treaty,
but only time can bring the real
value of the pact.
Trend of Roosevelt
Majority Depicted
In a nation-wide poll sponsored by
numerous newspapers, the majority
of which have not been too friendly
toward the President, the trend of the
Roosevelt majority among the voters
in the United States was shown to be
on the increase. His popularity is said
to have reached its lowest ebb since
MISCELLANEOUS SHOWER
On Thursday afternoon, November
14, the Baptist W. M. U., assisted
by the Fidelis Class, honored Miss
Lurline Coker with a miscellaneous
shower at the home of Mrs. L. E. Ten-
nison. As they guests arrived they
were asked to register in an attrac-
tive bride’s book over which Miss
Annie Alexander presided. They were
then served delicious punch from the
dining room by Miss Ruby Alexander.
The autumn atmosphere prevailed
in the living room where there was a
large table decorated to indicate the
approaching Thanksgiving season.
Fall flowers added to the festivity of
the occasion. A novel contest was en-
joyed by the guests, after which
Mrs. Bruce Parks gave an appropri-
ate toast to the bride. An amusing
toast to the groom was given by Mrs.
L. E. Thomas. Little Miss Jane Car-
penter, charmingly dressed as Cupid,
approached the bride-to-be, as Mrs.
H.- C. Carpenter sang a love song.
Cupid presented Miss Coker with the
key to a chest, which she found to be
filled with gifts from her many
friends. So great was the number of
gifts that much time was happily
spent in viewing and admiring them.
The honoree in her own sweet man-
ner, thanked her friends for the very
lovely shower. —A Guest.
