ST. LOUIS — The hooded gent
above is using a new twist in the
ancient art of decorating glass at
Pittsburgh Plate’s Studio of Crea-
tive Design here. While decorative
glass is one of man’s oldest means
of beautifying buildings, experi-
ments are still being carried on to
improve techniques? Here at the
studio the processes of design are
carried through from creation to
execution in plate glass. As demon-
strated above, designs are etched
into the glass by sandblasting
through a stencil which leaves
only the design bare. After sand-
blasting the glass may be beauti-
fully tinted or gilded, or left plain
to suit the individual taste. The
hood protects the operator’s face
and eyes from flying sand and
glass, and also prevents him from
inhaling the tiny particles. A sepa-
rate oxygen supply reaches him
through the small hose at the rear.

4-H Clubs All Set For
1949 Gardening
More than 4,700 Texas 4-H Club
boys and girls who- pledged their
“hands to larger service” last year are
expected to again eroll in the 1949
National 4-H Garden program. An-
nouncement of this state’s acceptance
of the program has been made by the
National Committee on Boys and
Girls Club Work. The activity is con-
ducted under the direction of the Co-
operative Extension Service.
Last year, nearly 375,000 4-H Club
members ranging in age from 10 to 21
years planted and tended about 80,-
000 acres of gardens, according to re-
ports of State lub leadetrs.
Born of wartime necissity, the Na-
tional 4-H Garden contest was first
launched in 1942. Pe acetime has not
lessened the incentive to produce, be-
cause 4-H’ers continue to raise a very
large variety of fruits and vegetables
which keeps the home table supplied
and reduces the family outlay for on
food supplies.
Recoi’ds are kept of costs, progress
and money returns as part of the 4-H
requirements. County Extension agent
and club leaders originize and encou-
rage the youth to learn how to care
for and manage a well-planned gar-
den, carry out a program of disease
control and market surplus produce.
In an effort to “make the best better”
products are exhibited at county, dis-
trict and state fairs, as well as com-
munity competition.
Each 4-H member enrolled in the
garden program has an opportunity

A LOT OF PERSONS, who like
to think that they think, are ban-
dying about a couple of terms
that mean less than a whole lot
to a whole lot of people. I refer
to the terms: “liberal” and “re-
actionary.” May I put in my two
cents worth in hopes that you
may know these modern labels
better?
What I mean is that armchair
commentators and soapbox spell-
binders throw these terms at you,
without any apology. Sure, you
can get their meaning, whether
they are for it or against it, by
the way their lips are curled and
their epithets hurled. But that’s
not enough. We need to know
what the labels mean. A man
can’t think straight unless he can
know his ideas as he picks
them up.

A New BUT HERE and now
Serfdom we have the sorry
mess of the liberals
today wanting to change all this.
They propose to improve this ar-
rangement by “planning” us in-
to either a socialist or a commu-
nist or a fascist society in which
all signs of human freedoms must
certainly vanish. These planners
and plotters would have the so-
ciety (government or state) to be
supreme in all things. Even God
they would replace by the State.
What need would we then have
to guarantee personal rights and
freedoms, if the state is to as-
sume all the responsibility for
everybody? No need, at all, if
the State is supreme. These lib-
erals. (I am now applying the
label test to their works) care
nothing for the Constitution. /
They are all totalitarians at
heart. Their aim is political
power to suppress the personal
liberty that belongs to the indi-
vidual. Here we have the strange
spectacle of dangerous “liberals.”
What else is the explanation,
when those who love to call them-
selves liberals denounce .as ‘ reac-
tionary” anybody who distrusts
the police state and would halt
the trend to totalitarianism? A
“reactionary,” strictly speaking,
is one who objects to progress
and desires to turn back the
clock. We must conclude then,
that the real reactionaries of to-
day are those liberals who would
return us to the slavery of the
State. They would make the com-
ing century a new Dark Age.
Testing JESUS SAID of false
Labels teachers: “By their
fruits ye shall know
them.” That is still the best way
to size up a man and his idea. It
is even possible to put that test
to labels. That way, a man cannot
call himself one thing and be an-
other.
* The word liberalism comes
from the same basic word that
gave us the term liberty. The an-
cestors of this label, therefore,
are of the best blood. The term
has the finest possible back-
ground, for it implies all sorts of
freedoms and puts strong stress
upon human liberty. Then how is
it that those who claim liberalism
as their doctrine are found wav-
ing the banner for the very worst
enemies of all liberty?
We Americans declare that we
hold sacred the right to life, lib-
erty, and the pursuit of happi-
ness. We have said that man is
