SCRAP DRIVE
The scrap drive at Claude is
progressing rapidly but due to the
bad weather it has not gone as
far as expected. For Thursday,
October 18, we had planned to
make a countryside drive. We were
to take a half day off from school
and anyone who knew where there
was some scrap would be free to
go collect It. Bad rouds caused the
postponement of this drive until
Friday. October 23, of this week
when school will be dismissed
for a half day It anyone has
some scrap which he wants hauled
from his place and is willing to
donate It to the school he may
have it hauled away by notifying
Mr. Morris. At each class meeting
Tuesday, October 20, a committee
of three members will be elected
to work with Mr. Morris as to who
will go to each .section of the
country around Claude. This drive
should greatly add to the huge pile
of scrap which we already have
The 285 children in the Claude
schools have already collected 55,
109 pounds of iron for an average
of 193 pounds per pupil. In the
high school the freshman class

and the soplnnore class is last

PROGRESS ON GYMNASIUM
Since the last report on the
gymnasium, work has been pro-
gressing steadily. The roof is com-
pletely finished now, the celling
having been painted white during
the past few weeks. Light wires
and heat pipes are being installed
at the present. Two large circulat-
ing heaters, which hang from the
ceiling, have been installed at
the north end of the gymnasium
Ten floodlights have been put in
over the playing court. The walls
around the playing court have
been calclmined. The floor of the
gym has been sanded three times
and after two more sandtngs it
will be ready for varnishing. After
the floor Is completed lines for
tennis, badmitton, volley ball, and
basket ball will be painted. Goals
for plajing basket ball have already
been put up. Orders have been
placed for tennis nets and other
equipment, to go with gymnastic

RAGWEEK ON HOME FRONT
Galveston, Oct 23 —How about
shouldering a hoe as a weapon in-
this war?
Dr. J. G. Sinclair, of the Univer-
sity of Texas Medical School, sug-
gests that getting rid of ragweed
is a home a home-front job worthy
of anybody's attention. At least
80 per cent of Texas' 300 000 hay-
fever victims are allergic to the
weea, he points out, and planting
a Victory Garden in its place
would eliminate it permanently! tt

us the plans for having a big

THREE MINUTE SERMON:-

Victory
. . Begins At Home
Extend the Life of Your
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
A
Your patriotic duty it to protect
that which you already have, not
what you expect to get u a result
of the present world coniUct.
Your Electrical Appliances need
your constant attention. Take specia.
care of them.
When disconnecting appliances, do
not pull the cord , . . take hold ot
the plug itself. Keep cords dry and
free of grease and oil. Repair frayed
cords immediately so there will not
be a short circuit later. Keep the
surface of your electrical appliances
clean and bright . . That helps make
them last longer, and gives you great-
er satisfaction in using them.
Care is an important factor in the
conservation of your eit-cirical ap-
pliances. Consult your nearest elec-
trical repair man if your appliances
do not perform well.
ELECTRICITY IS STILL CHEAP
God has broken the power of sin
in his life, he does not need to
obey the sinful demands of the
evil nature. He can say n point
blank NO to sin. He will, therefore
not let sin be king in his life
and he will stop yielding him-
self to sin (Rom. 6:12,13).
But victory over sin Is but one
part of the Christian life. The
other part Is the doing of the
right. There God has also made |
provision for the ChrLstain. Paul
exhorts, "Reckon ye also yourselves1
to be... alive unto God" (Rom. 6:-J
11). The divine nature In him'
and the Htly Spirit living In his
heart will, if yielded to and de- J
pended upon, give the Christian |
both the desire and the power
to do the right. The Christian j
therefore, should say NO to sin
and yield to the Holy Spirit, de- J
pending upon Him to give both
the desire and the power to obey
the Word of God. tt I
WAR COMMUNICATIONS
The Board of War Communica-
tions ordered long distance tele-
phone calls relating to the war ef-
fort and public safety be given pri-
ority over all other rails, effective
November 1. Calls concerning mov-
ing armed forces during combat
operations, urgent orders for the
armed forces, immediate dangers
due to presence of the enemy, dis-
asters materially affecting the war
effort or public security, will get
first priority. Operators will give
precedence to priority calls at ail
times, tt

President Roosevelt stated "the
barbaric crimes being committed by
the enemy against civilian popula-
tions in occupied countries" are
continuing, and "I now declare it
to be the Intention of the Govern-
ment that the successful close of
the war shall include provision for
the surrender to the United Nations
of war criminals . . . The perpetra-
tors of these crimes shall answer
for them before courts of law." tt

In Your Yard:
Don't burn leaves. Pile them up
to decay. There Is no substitute for
humus or decayed vegetable matter
for the lawn or garden. Also, start
your planning for a cutting garden
of annuals next year. It Is best
started in late fall, so seed can be
ready to germinate in the early part |
of spring.
A Sewing Tip:
A subscriber gives this sugges-
tion for hemming gored skirts. When
hemming a gored skirt, turn up the
first edge and stitch with the long
stitch on the machine. Then turn
the hem the desired width and pin
on every seam. The extra fullness
can be eased in by pulling the
bobbin thread between the seams,
and a nice even hem will be the
result.
Inspirational:
He that is slow to anger Is better
than the mighty; and he that rule-
th his spirit than he that taketh
a city. Proverbs 16:32. #
