FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1941
Sacred Heart Church
Mass Sermon and Benediction
—9:00 a. m. A cordial invitation
is extended to all.
J. A. Zienta, Pastor
Church of Christ
R. V. IWOOD, Minister
The local Church of Christ has
arranged with R. V. Wood of Bor-
der to preach twice each month*,
on the first and third Lord’s day.
Subject for the morning hour—
Sound Doctrine. Paul told Timo-
thy, that the time will come when
they will not endure sound doc-
trine, and we wonder if that time
has not arrived.
What is sound doctrine? We
are sure that the Lord was speak-
ing sound doctrine when He said,
in°Mark 16:15-16, that he that be-
lieveth and is baptized will be
saved, and we are sure that Peter
was speaking sound doctrine when
he said, in Acts 2:38, Repent and
be baptized every one of you, in
the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins, and we are
sure that Paul was speaking sound
doctrine when he said in the Gal-
latian letter, 1 to 8, that if any
man or an angel preach any other
doctrine, that there was a curse
pronounced up on him.
Subject, of the evening hour—
Behold the Lamb of God. Behold
Him on the cross shedding His
precious blood to purchase His
church. Acts 20:28 and Ephesians
5: 23-28.
Especially invited are all neigh-
bors and friends to attend these
■services.

Canada Is Building Tanks
/CANADIAN industry performed a
L miracle when It fashioned its
first heavy infantry tank. At the
outbreak of war, the Dominion had
no facilities for the manufacture of
such military monsters as tanks
and no means of making armor
plate such as tank specifications
call for. But brains, perseverance
and expediency combined to make
possible the overcoming of these
serious obstacles and today, not
only is Canada producing tanks at
the rate of three per day but
—Passed by Censor, i
Canadian engineers have introduced1
improvements which are said to
make these tanks faster to build1
than any of the size yet produced
on this continent or in Great
Britain, and there' is a possibility
that the United States may adopt
the design of the Canadian Cruiser
Tank. The Canadian tank program
calls for the production of 800 in-
fantry and 1000 cruiser tanks. The
photograph shows workmen putting
the finishing touches on one of the
heavy infantry tanks.
GERTRUDE WALL BECOMES
BRIDE OF B. O. BERTRAND
School has started, which in-
creases our possibilities for the
Lord’s work. Everyone should!
find his place in the church life
of the community. America has
always been proud of her relig-
ious liberty and all would die to
preserve it. But of what use is
religious liberty when it is not
used ?
Come—enjoy the singing, fel-
lowship, and worship.
YOUNG MINISTERIAL
STUDENT TO SPEAK AT
METHODIST CHURCH
Sunday, Sept. 7, the local Meth-
' odist congregation will hear Rev.
Bergin Watkins, a ministerial stu-
dent, and son of Rev. R. S. Wat-
kins, pastor the Methodist church
.at Panhandle.
Mr. Watkins is one of the North-
west Texas Conference’s most
promising preachers. He has filled
pulpits for various pastors in this
district almost every Sunday
through the summer and next
Sunday will be his last service be-
fore he returns to school.
The local pastor, Rev. Don
Davidson, is in revival at Ralls,
'Texas, with Rev. E. A. Tharp. In
his absence there will be no eve-
ning services at the Methodist
church but the morning services
will be held each Sunday.
Beginning on Friday night,
Sept. 19, the local church will hold
revival services for 10 nights,
closing on Sunday, Sept. 28. No
•morning services will be held and
Rev. Davidson will do the preach-
ing.
This date was chosen with the
hope that most of the plowing will
be finished by that time and our
people will have an opportunity
to atend the services.
Rev. Davidson say this to be
a ‘Good News” meeting, with no
(propositions and no altar calls.
In a single ring ceremony per-
formed Aug. 17 in the parsonage
of the First Methodist church in
Idalou, IMliss Gertrude Wall be-
came the bride of B. Olur Ber-
trand of White Deer. Rev. J. E.
Stephens of that church, read the

Mrs. S. O. Wall, is a graduate of
Idalou High school, and of Ar-
lene’s Beauty school in Lubbock,
and was employed as a beauty op-
erator in Lubbock. The bride-

HOLD WEEKLY MEETING
The Methodist Woman’s Divi-
sion of Christian Service met last
Monday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock
in the church.
The devotional was given by
Mrs,. John E. Williams, with the
keyword being‘ ‘ Influence, ’ ’ which
was followed by a prayer given
by Mrs. W. L. Potter.
Mrs. J. L. Harsh, president,
had charge of the business meet-
ing, and also closed the meeting
by presenting an article from The
Methodist Woman. Plans were
made to send complete reports in
all the different departments for
this quarter. Next meeting will
be the monthly social, Sept 3,
at 2:3d p. m., in the home of Mrs.
R. A. Thompson.
Present were Mmes. Fleming,
Harsh, Bertha Hodges, .Culbert-
son, Darnell, Strickland, W. L.
Potter, Thompson, and John E.
Williams.
Based on a coal production of
800 tons per year for each person
employed, more than 94,000 coal
mine workers were employed to
produce the coal consumed by lo-
comotives in 1939.
This is a new type of plan for
revival effort and will feiature
conferences through the day with
regular members of the church.

t SIMPLE REMEDY TO GET
RID OF ANT BEDS
Many local residents complain
of their inability to kill out the
beds of red ants which are to be
found near many of the homes.
A local resident comes forth with
a simple “remedy” which he as-
serts will do the work, if direc-
tions are followed.
Merely keep a supply of 20-
Mule Team Borax spread around
the top of the beds so that the
ants will be forced to travel
through it. The supply should be
replenished when necessary for a
period of about three weeks so
that all of th young ants which
might emerge later will get their
dose of the borax and "within
three or four weeks the entire
colony will be killed.
Our informant states that he
has used this method for a num-
ber of years and always has had
effective results, often killing
but unusually large beds of the
pests. It will cost only a few
cents to try it.—Uvalde Leader.
For those who want to “rought
it” on their own during a part of
the year, the National Forest Ser-
vice maintains 73 primitive, wild-
erness, and roadless areas, total-
ing some 14,000,000 acres.
SOCIAL SECURITY
NUMBERS ARE FINAL
Young men and women who have
been working during the summer
vacation period and are now pre-
paring to return to college were
cautioned in a statement by Dewey
Reed, manager of the Amarillo of-
fice of the Social Security Board,
to keep the same social security
account number cards issued to
them when they began work and
have the numbers ready for their
employers whenver they return to
employment. This also applies to
boys and girls of grade and high
schools who have been working
during vacation periods.
“Many a person, after securing
a social security account number
and working for a short time,
either misplaces or loses his ac-
count card,” said Mr. Reed, and
we are trying to impress upon
each worker the fact that he
needs only one account number
and should keep it throughout his
working lifetime.”
It was emphasized that two dif-
ferent social security account num-
bers may mean smaller old-age and
survivors insurance payments when
the time comes to file a claim for
benefits. In case anyone loses his
social security account number
card, a duplicate may be secured.
This chance to secure a duplicate
number, however, is no reason for
the holder of an account number
to become careless and disregard
the importance of safeguarding his
original number.
“In other words,’’ Reed ex-
plained, “young people, as well as
workers of all ages should under-
stand that the same social security
account number a worker secures
when he began work is the one
he must use whenever he returns
to employment. A social security
number identifies an insurance
policy and upon that number a
worker builds old-age and sur-
vivors insurance credits, based on
wages received.”
FIRE PREVENTION IS
NOW MAGNIFIED DUE TO
NATIONAL DEFENSE
Each year in October, Fire
Prevention jWeek is observed, by
proclamation of the President of
the United States. It is a call on
the citizens of this country to re-
duce loss of life and property by
fire.
That week is always important.
This year, with the country en-
gaged in the greatest defense
drive in all history—a drive which
means that a large part of the
human and material resources of
this country must be turned to
the gigantic task of making us
militarily impregnable—the week
is a hundred times more impor-
tant still. It has been, said many
times, and it should be said
many times again, that fire is
the enemy of defense. Fire is the
waster, the implacable destroyer
of time, of human effort, of life,
of resources. Fire fights against
the swift production of airplanes
and cannons and battleships and
tanks. Fire fights against the na-
tion’s safety.
In' the past years, it has often
happened that fire losses have
gone down during the week and
the period immediately following,
only to rise sharply thereafter.
In other words, we Americans
have had short memories. The
lessons learned during the week
were quickly forgotten, and we re-
lapsed into our old. careless,
habits.
That must not happen now. We
must regard every week as a fire
prevention week. We must regard
every day as a day in which to
keep in mind the hazards that
breed fire, and the means of
eliminating them. Only if that is
done, can fire, our ever-present
foe, be beaten.
The war against fire is a war
for American safety in which ev-
ery one of us can play an aggres-
sive part.

Recently it was found that the

hausted and we could obtain no
more the oil industry could meet
our needs with an efficient syn-
thetic rubber made from petro-
leum.
fumes of pure gasoline are an ef-
fective anesthetic. Petroleum is
being made into powerful disin-
fectants.
When it comes to other mate-
rials of war, the industry is like-
wise playing a big part. A short
while ago the government made
arrangements with the industry
to produce 60,000,000 gallons of
toluene — the basic ingredient of
TNT.
This is just one example of
how our natural resource indus-
tries are quietly helping to build
America’s defense — and at the
same time meeting America’s nor-
mal needs.
HELP DEFENSE
—STOP ACCIDENTS
“Help Defense — Stop Acci-
dents!”'is the rallying cry issued
by the Texas Safety Association
in its role as state coordinator in
the nationwide campaign against
accidents launched by President
Roosevelt.
By proclamation the President
called on every American citizen
to devote maximum effort to a
“concerted campaign against ac-
cidents which are wasting the
manpower and resoures so sore-
ly needed for national defense.”
The statewide campaign against
accidents on the highways, on the
farms, in industry, and at home
will be waged by more than 30
organizations cooperating with the
Texas Safety Association.
“The importance of helping de-
fense by stopping accidents can-
not be overemphasized,” said
George Clarke, managing director.
“For example, the traffic toll
for the Labor Day weekend holi-
day is expected to take the lives
of 27 Texans, permanently disable
71 persons and injure some 900
NATURAL RESOURCE j others. The economic loss for the
INDUSTRIES HELP DEFENSE j three day celebration will amount
to more than one million dollars!
The oil industry supplies the
fuel that keeps our machines and
many of .our factories going. It
has given the United States 63
per cent of all the oil produced
in the world. On top of that, the
oil industry is working wonders'
in other vital fields.
Rubber is absolutely essential
to the nation in peace and in war.
‘ ‘ The prediction is based on the
accident trend of this year and
the accident rate for the same
holiday period last year.
“Translated in terms of the de-
fense program, four bombers could
be built with the economic loss of
the Labor Day holiday alone.
“ ‘Help Defense — Stop Acci-
dents!’ is a patriotic appeal which
All our natural rubber comes every Texan should heed.”
