Sunlight is a powerful killer
of bacteria, one of the world’s
greatest antiseptics. Direct sun-
« light, falling on the
adult body during a
minute sunbath, gives heat
enough to boil a gallon of wa-
ter.
The heat that reaches the
earth from the sun is sufficient
during the course of a day to
melt a cake of ice 5,000 feet
in thickness and as large as the
state of Massachusetts.

An elderly Quaker woman
with a beautiful complexion
was asked what kind of cos-
metics she used. In reply, she
offered this prescription: “I use
for my lips, truth; for my
- voice prayer; for my eyes, pity;
for my hands, charity; for my
figure, uprightness; for my
heart, love”. This prescription
can be filled without expense,
and the supply will increase
with continued use.

Helsinki, Finland, has a beau-
tiful jet airport about one
fourth the size of Washington,
D. C. It became a realization
almost entirely through prison-
ers serving time for D.W.I. No-
body, absolutely nobody, can
escape severe sentence if caught
while driving while inebriated.
Some of the prisoners, who
built the airport as part of
their sentence at hard labor,
include bank officials, mer-
chants, and government work-
ers. Two were members of
parliament. Although they had
much political “pull” the
premier refused to get the
Finnish Congressmen “off the
hook” for drunk driving.
. even they put in six months at
hard labor with sledge ham-
mers.
Co-Ops Seek Financial Independence
tion Credit Association and
others. With the establishment
of this Bank, the cooperatives
would no longer be dependent
upon the Federal Government,
as provisions would be made for
private capital to be utilized,
along with investments by elec-
tric cooperatives and the Fed-
eral Government. As soon as
the electric cooperatives build
up sufficient equity in the
Bank, the Federal stock would
be retired and control of the
Bank would shift to the co-
operatives.
For those electric coopera-
tives which cannot afford to
pay a higher rate of interest,
the Rural Electrification Ad-
ministration would continue to
make loans to them at the rate
of 2%.
It appears this is a sound
plan in line with most conser-
vative thinking since it would
eventually relieve the Federal
Government of its responsibil-
ities for financing electric co-
operatives.
By Richard A. Veevers
The unfolding and reveal-
ment of new life with the com-
ing of Springtime should cause
us to reaffirm our faith in the
goodness and the rightness of
the world, even as we pass
through experiences that are
cold and dark. Once more we"
are taught the lesson of pa-
tience and perseverance. In
each of our lives sunshine fol-
lows the clouds. Let us stead-
fastly belive that the best is yet
to come.
A good habit for individual
progress is formed when a per-
son recalls that nobody have
ever known all there is to be
known. From a recognition of
our own ignorance, we can al-
ways move forward to know-
ledge. Worthwhile ideas are
usually conveyed by the printed
word. No other medium has
ever proved to be half so ef-
fective.
There is little satisfaction to
be gained from doing things
that hold no difficulties. The ac-
complishment of a hard-to-do
t^sk brings a sense of worth and
p; ver. All along the way, we
should be thankful for the dis-
appointments and mistakes and
days of doubt that come. These
. . . and even our failures . . .
are tests of our courage. And
courage is one of the greatest
qualities of any life.
The desire to be well thought
of makes people reluctant to
say “NO” to anyone regarding
anything. One should cultivate
the ability to say “NO” to ac-
tivities for which we have no
talent, no time, and in which
we have no interest or real
concern. If we learn to say
“NO” to many things, we will
be able to say “YES” to the
things that matter most.

Do you dream in your sleep?
There are four main types of
dreams: creative, monitory,
revelatory, and premonitory.
In creative dreaming, au-
thors build plots, architects de-
sign buildings, mathematicians
solve problems.
In monitory dreams,
sleeper is warned of
danger or disaster.
Revelatory dreams stir up
obscure memories in the in-
dividuals subconscious mind, as,
for example, the whereabouts
of a misplaced article is recalled
in a dream.
At the request of rural elec-
tric cooperatives, bills have
been introduced in Congress for
the establishment of an Electric
Bank. The reason for this re-
quest is the rapidly growing
needs of the electric coopera-
tives for additional capital to fi-
nance the increasing growth.
While this move will result
in higher interest rates for the
systems which could afford to
pay, cooperatives are willing to
accept this additional obliga-
tion.
Congressional appropriations
for the capital needs of electric
cooperatives have been inade-
quate for the past several years.
The use of electricity by farm-
ers and ranchers is doubling
every 5 to 6 years in the area
served by the Guadalupe Val-
ley Electric Cooperative and is
growing almost as rapidly in
other areas of the nation.
The Electric Bank would be
patterned after the successful

II from October 19, 1943 to
December 18, 1944 with the
1936th Service Command Unit
at various bases in the States.
August Haslbeck, former
brewmaster for the Spoetzl
Brewery at Shiner, was one of
the most highly trained masters
of the beer makers art in Tex-
as, having served a long ap-
prenticeship in some of the
leading breweries of Germany
before coming to this country
in 1930 and becoming associated
with the Spoetzl Brewery in
October the same year after a
brief stay in Buffalo, N. Y. Af-
ter three years service with this
Texas organization, Mr. Hasl-
beck returned to Germany
(1933-34) where he received
his brewmaster’s degree at one
of the famous breweries at
Munich. His apprenticeship was
served with the Hoffbrau
Brewing Company at Rosen-
heim, Germany, the Leon Brew-
ing Company at Munich and the
Auer Brewery at Rosenheim.
After obtaining his degree
in 1934, Mr. Haslbeck re-
turned to Shiner and assumed
the position as brewmaster for
the Spoetzl Brewery, until he
was forced to retire due to ill
health.
Mr. Haslbeck was born at Ro-
senheim, Bavaria, Germany on
September 26, 1909, son of
Josef Haslbeck, noted malt-
master who was connected with
one of the largest brewing es-
tablishments at Rosenheim, and
Monika (Spoetzl) Haslbeck,
also of Rosenheim. He was edu-
cated in the schools of his na-
tive Germany and immediately
after leaving school followed in
his father’s footsteps and began
learning the difficult trade of a
brewmaster, diligent applica-
tion winning for him a degree
certifying to his competency at
a very early age.
He was married to Margaret
Schindler June 15, 1938 at Shi-
ner and the couple quietly ob-
served their 25th wedding an-
niversary in 1963.
Mr. Haslbeck returned to his
native land in June 1950 to visit
his aged mother, who later
passed away on January 27,
1953. His father preceded him
in death December 10, 1946.
He is survived by his wife,
