Being Worthy to Stand at
the Soldier's Grave
Memorial day is here again and the
people will visit the graves ot the dead
and leave the flower of remembrance and
recall the deeds of valor of our honored
dead soldiers for whom the day is especial-
ly set aside.
When we consider the tendency of the
human race to too soon forget those who
have lived and wrought, it is to the credit
of our people that we do have set aside
this one day in the year when we recall
■the fe and acts of valour of those honored
aien who did their last bit for the cause of
our common liberty.
This yepr M we go bo the graves of
our soldiers, we tare preparing for another
conflict which may send thousands of our
sons to their graves prematurely if this
diing goes to the limits it reached buck in
.he last world war. We are preparing for
defense, and possibly war on a scale never
before undertaken by this country and it
miay mean that we shall increase the popu-
lation in all the cemeteries of the land as a
result of it. But those of us who do not
think enough of dying a free man, rather
than existing under the heel of a dicta-
tor who shall reduce the subjects to noth-
ing less than third rate citizens or slaves,
have no place at the side of a grave made
paired bv a soldier who died that we might
have a declaration of independence.
So when you stand by the side of the
rrave of the soldier boy today lift your hat
and thank God there lies another man who
'■aid to his soul even to the cost of blood,
''this is my home, my native land."

The Press believes that the law per-
mitting the railroads to have and use
their own bus and truck lines .in areas
served by the roads where the short hauls
especially is affected in legislation that is
nothing but fair for the roads. In the light
of the fact that they have to compete
with, trucks and bus lines they can best
do so in certain sections by the permit to
have their own like means of handling this
Kind of business. We do not believe it will
hurt the railroad boys but will rather pro-
tect their jobs, since it will permit the rail-
roads to remain in business to a better ad-
vantage. '

Peppers Now Rival
Onions in Tempting
Dishes and Salads
A type of pepper which few home
gardeners grow was awarded a
bronze medal in the All America
trials for new vegetables, for 1041.
It was called the Sweet Banana,
probably because of its shape, since
it has a mild pepper flavor. But
its long yellow fruits somewhat re-
semble bananas. It is a Hun-
garian pepper, and is valuable for
mixing in the salad bowl, or cook-
tag.
Examining a nationally known
cook book recently, some fifty reci-
pes were noted that called for green
peppers. These included appeUz-
ers, salads, soups, stews, pot roasts,
sauces, in fact about everything
except desserts, breads, and pastry.
The green pepper is used both raw
and cooked and both for flavor and
decoration. It is becoming the twin
of the onion in culinary use.
Its use is relatively modern. It
is well within the memory of the
present generation when the green
pepper meant nothing in the daily
diet. The chief use of peppers was
limited to the hot types for mixed
pickles and seasoning.
Peppers are easily grown in the
home garden. They may be dried
for winter use or canned as pi-
mentos. They are the most ten-
der of the vegetables and no
chances of cold weather or frosts
should be taken with them. They
are about the last plant that should
be set out. This should not be done
until there is absolutely no danger
of a frost. Seed can be sown in
the open ground for the late crop.
Plants raised in frames or in the
house give the early crop and all
seedhouses keep plants in stock
which may be purchased very
cheaply at planting time.
Give the peppers a foot apart in
the row, full sun, rich soil, and an

All-America Bronze Medal. ,
abundance of moisture. They seem
to like moisture on their tops as well
as at the roots and the sprinkler
can be turned on <hem to good ad-
vantage. With other vegetables it
is more efficient to take the nozzle
off the hose and let the water trickle
slowly between the rows and soak
in. '
In buying pepper seed be sure
that you select a sweet or cool type.
The accident of using a hot instead
of a sweet pepper which sometimes
happens in cooking is no fun when
you are the victim. Grow hot pep-
pers in a different part of the gar-
den from the sweet peppers to
avoid any hot mixups.
Give your peppers good cultiva-
tion and keep them in vigorous
growth. You will be rewarded with
more and better quality peppers.
Above all, do not let them want for
moisture during the hot spells. They
will revel in the heat if they have
moist soil.

ARE THINKING
TWE REDOUBTABLE
Maverick
5fcin Antonio's ejection of May-
or Maverick by a comparatively
small majority will attract a good
deal of attention, for the simple
reason that the colorful Maverick
made himself a figure, not of na-
tional importance, but of national
attention, from the time that he
entered Congress a^ a freshman
Out of all proportion to the real
importance of the event his elec-
tion as Mayor after his defeat for
a second re-lection to Congress
drew attention. The wiseacre col-
umnist will discuss Tuesday's San
Antonio election as bearing on the
liberal and conser fative viewpoint.
As a matter of fact, there was but
one issue in the election, the color,
ful Mr. Maverick himself.
The retiring Mayor has now
been twice defeated in his home
purlius. But the loss of an elec-
tion by a thousand votes cannot be
accepted as eliminating so persis-
tant a public figure. Mr. Maverick
regards himself as a liberal and
campaigns under the label. But the
truth is that Mr. Maverick is an
indu ulualist, convinced that what
ever he stands for is liberalism
and is right. Naturally dogmatism
Staking Keeps
in Flower and
Properly staked plants insure an
orderly garden. Lack of proper
ataking means that you are reason-
ably sure to have some wrecked and
aiessy beds later in the season. A
heavy rain or wind storm is likely
to knock over tall and heavy foli-
age plants which naturally have
stems not sufficiently sturdy to
stand up under such circumstances.
Delphiniums are the first plants
In the garden to show the need for
Staking. The heavy spikes of bloom
on these stately perennials make
them singularly susceptible to de-
struction by winds or heavy rains.
Stake them before the buds start
to open and save the beauty of the
delphiniums. Gladiolus with heavy
spikes ot bloom are likely to need
(takes. Lilies and iris of the taller
types also need this assistance.
Tall African and French marigolds
arc tipped over by wind or rain and
bccomo a jungle. Staking would
have saved them.
The first requisite of good stak-
ing is that the stakes should be
strong and capable of holding up the
plant, but as unobtrusive as pos-
sible. Green painted stakes are
least conspicuous. The cheapest
and most efficient stakes are the
bamboo canes sold in varying
lengths by dealers. They may be
bought already painted in their
natural color and you can paint
them yourself. They are strong
and durable Recently heavy wire
stakes have been offered and they
are least obtrusive of all especially
when painted green. Plants can be
tied to them easily nnd hung
upright so that the tying cannot be
distinguished until viewed at close
. range.
Set the stakes and tie the plants
before they come into bloom. A
good job of staking that will not
make the plant look stiff and ob-
viously tied up cannot be dona after

it has come into bloom. For plants
of lighter growth that are apt to
sprawl and be of untidy habit,
twiggy branches carefully applied
make the best supports. The tall
snapdragons need staking. If
pinched back and tied the tall types
throw out branches and become
pyramids of bloom. The long ter-
minal spike is sacrificed but a much
greater quantity of bloom and finer
garden display is obtained. Get in
a supply of stakes and give the
plants known to need staking atten-
tion early in Uierr career. The soon-

The president has proclaimed
that sin unliimted national emer-
gency exists in this country. Now
an emergency is something that
is calling for all the wit, wisdom,
resources and ability you have to
take care of the situation.
If anybodv wants to know an
•emergency of thnt kind has exist-
ed 'n our household for all the
■years we have been trving to take
care of a family and run a busi-
ness.
Every day when we get up we
have known that the dav would
bring another emergency—in fact
it was carried over from the days
that had just gone by.
And we knew further that it
would take all the wisdom, wit j
and grit we had to carry it!
through. We had no resources, if |
you understand what we mean. It I
was pure nerve and optimism,
sales-breaking-down ability and
sheer determination that we know
was the thing that was to carry
us through.
So when we heard the word
•emergency it did not shock us.
It only made us partners now with
the rest of this good old country
in a more brotherly sort of a way.
We can now give him the right
hand of fellowship and welcome
him into the intricate mysteries
of the lodge which now is the
greatest in this country.
An emergency is something that
make you use the old suit that you
were too proud to wear last year
It is the thing that teaches you
how to cut out so much going
around looking for some sort of a
watering place where you think
you can get rid of a nervous dis-
position that an emergency takes
out of you in a jiffy.
An emergency may also be
something that shows yo how you
can eat corn bread when you
want hot biscuits or do one spoon
of sug^r where you have been]
u.ving three. I
In many of the homes of our
city they have been practicing
meeting emergencies so long that
hearing the rest of the people of
the nation having to go into such
a manner of living, it is like hav-
ing a man come to their front
door and ask him to move over
and let him get in bed with him.
But let's not let this thing' of
an emergency in our country run
us pan icy. We must do the best we
can in the way of carrying on our
business affairs and keeping up
the payrolls, buying what we need
as far as we can and in other
ways helping to keep the proces-
ses of every day life going.
Above all, don't get gloomy. It
is no humiliation to have to do
without some of the things we
now have—there are so many
things we do not actually need
Keep our heads cool, our spirits
up, don't let down your religious
duties and prayer life. Pray for
your country, state, city, home,

day.
Fashion Editor Names
Fiction's Best-Dressed
■ .EVERYONE is familiar with
|~1j the annual newspaper listing
of the best dressed women in the
world. But what about the beauti-
fully groomed women in fiction?
How do they rate?
Carmel Snow, editor of Harper's
Bazaar, has chosen six women sh«
considers fashion "tops" in the world
of literature. Included in Mrs. Snow's
list which appears in the June is
sue of Good Housekeeping maga
zine are the inevitable selections-
Rebecca in Daphne duMaurier*s
story of the same name and Scar-
lett O'Hara. Although the first
Mrs. De Winter in the duMauriei
book is never introduced to the
reader, Mrs. Snow points out that
her elegance is strikingly revealed
:n the scene where Mrs. Danvers
ihows Rebecca's wardrobe to tht
*econd wife. The sable wrap, tht
ihinchilla—"she could wear any-
'.hing, stand any color"—gold bro-
•ades, wine colored velvet. She everi
lied dashingly, says Mrs. Snow in
<lacks and a shirt.
Scarlett O'Hara in Gone with tht
Wind is another favorite of the
well-known fashion editor. She likes
particularly the dress described on
the first page; the green flowered-
muslin which "spread its twelve
yards of billowing material over hei
hoops and exactly matched the
ilat-heek-d green morocco slippers."
Other nominations made by Mrs
Snow arc; K'.eur Forsyte in Gals-

DALLAS BLANKENSHIP
The Dallas Blankenship bill to
protect the right of counties to be
dry when the citizens so vote, was
signed recently by the Governor for
immediate enactment into law.
"It is a democratic principle that
when the people vote their prefer-
ence in any matter, it is the duty of
their representatives to fulfill and
protect that expressed will.
"When the people in a county
vote their territory dry. they have
a right to have that option pro-
tected." Blankenship saia.
The Blankenship bill prohibits
drug stores from violating by sale
of prescription whisky, territories
that have been voted dry. Many
civic leaders have been interested
in the passage of this legislation
and it_ was especially requested in
vicinities of army camps, t
Dallas Blankenship, who is one
of the strong leaders in the Legis-
lature, is urged by many through-
out the State to become a candidate
for Lieutenant Governor.
