M'
will be a luncheon guest here
on March 13 has been active in
Legion Auxiliary work for a num-
ber of years. She is from North
Carolina and was elevted Auxllary
president at the Chicago conven-
tion. Her husband, who died in
1939 was Lt. Col. Walter Gluyas
Craven of World War I.
The local Auxiliary thus is
bringing a national figure to
Breckenridge.
ROBERT Ledbetler. son of Mr.

Wayland, has been elected presi-
dent of the senior class at John
Tarleton. He is a lieutenant in
the cadet corps and Is majoring

When in school here Robert was J
president of the Future Farmers
of America in 1944. He is young
man making his own way in a fine
way.
s
TEPHENVILLE Empire-Trib-
unc: A lot of good men may
have been smart a few years ago
but in some instances they have
allowed themselves to decay. They
become fossils. One of the best
ways to keep from becoming a
fossil is to absolutely refuse to be
a fossil. A fossil is one who could
but who won't. Look the picture
over; if you are one of the latter
clasft start now to reform. Convert
}ourv«lf into good standing. And
remember this, your classification
haf already been established by
your f^Snda and neighbors. Get
out of that foup and stay out.
IT seems to us the Stephenville
editor imposes a rather hard
cute for fossiiism when he says
to get out of the class of your
friends and neighbors, but maybe
he knows what he is talking a-
bout.
We have observed that when
a man begins to flip into fossiiism
is when he begins to talk more
about the past than he does about
today and the future.
Zephyrs from the yesteryears
seem to blow sweeter as time lea-
ves those years farther behind.
Chances are those years too had a
smell about them somewhat re-
sembling the ordinary smells of
today, if they could be brought
close again.

Byrnes Says Reds
Violated Pact
WASHINGTON, March 5 <U.R>—
Secretary of State James F. Byr-
nes made it clear today that this
country feels that Russia violated
its agreement by failing to with-
draw its troops from Iran by
March 2.
He was asked at a press con-
ference whether there was any
question in his mind about March
2 having been the deadline for
withdrawal of all foreign troops
from Iran.
* Byrnes replied emphatidilly that
there was no question in his mind.
The press conference was de-
voted almost entirely to questions
and statements on the many prob-
lems of American-Russian rela-
tions. These included—
1. Revelation that the Iranian Am-
bassador here received this morn-
ing a communication from his
government for delivery later to-
day. To the state department.
2. Byrnes statement that tho
Potsdam declaration pledged tho
Allies to allow Japanese troops,
to return to their home after sur-
render. This was indirectly linked
with unconfirmed reports that the
Russians have removed some Jap-
anese troops to Siberia. Byrnes
had no comment on,the specific
case.
3. Byrnes assertion that the
geographical limffs of Gen. Doug-
las MacArthur's command in tho
far east extend wherever there is
enemy territory or enemy troops.

Food, Not Capsules,
Her Energy Advice
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. <U.R>— Reach
for a carrot instead.....
That's the advice of Miss Flora
Carl, dietician at the University
of Missouri, who says it isn't vit-
amin pills you need t< build up
energy and enthusiasm, hut. more
of the seven basic foods. And sleep
sems to help, too.
Miss Carl contends that bubbling
health <canrt>t be found in a cap-
sule bottle "though if your doctor
prscribes vitamin piWs, that's
something else."
Bat better still, in Miss Carl's
opinion, is plenty of milk, green
vegetables, eggs, lean meats and
dark bread.
