While in 8weden, Col. Lindbergh
and wife visited the farm of his
Grandfather. Then flew to Len-
ingrade, Russia where the Soviets
had arranged a welcome and en-
tertainment for him.
A Native court of Africa pro-
reeded to flog a British subject

native African woman, and the
British upheld the flogging. But

"Speak unto the Children of
Israel that they go Farward". was
the subject discussed by Pastor
Russell of the First Baptist church
last Sunday morning. The pastor
reminded his hearers that no na-
tion has made progress long, leav-
ing God out of their dealings,
without that nation eventually fall-
ing. No nation can prosper in the
true sense and become power-
ful without putting God first in
everything.

Intelligence is what you get from
home. Common sense you must de-
velop yourself. Learning is wha'
you obtain in school. Knowledge is
what the world hands you. Judg-
ment comes only with the years.
Experiencee is a bitter medicine
administered by life itself, and
must be taken with a bit of con-
science. Wisdom is a phantom of-
ten chased but seldom overtaken.
Success or failure are a matter of
opinion. Reputation is the golden
scale. Contentment the final ob-
jective.—Buckeye, Archbold, Ohio.

One of our exchanges tell about

ANSWERS TO INQUIRES
Warden Ledis E. Lawes. of Sing
Sing Prison says there are 8 crooks
out of prison for every man be-
hind the bars. Which reminds us
that Thos. L. Manson, Dallas
County jailor and Grover C. Bevill
were arrested for the recent es-
cape of Harvy Bailey, notorious
desporado and Kidnapper, from
the Dallas county jail. When such
men are sworn to obey and pro-
tect our laws, throw in with the
kidnappers and desporados, you can
expect less and less enforcement
of said laws.
Prices of commodities and stocks
have recently been taking another
jump farward—but this seems to
be a result of the threatened in-
flation rather than any actual in-
crease in volume of business. Many
mercantile concerns are putting op
huge bargain sales at this time.
and these sales are bringing some

mittee of The United Slates, or
Attorney for same. He says he is
not concerned so much about In-
dividual Bankers as he Is the
Banking System, which no doubt
brought about the three years
PANIC which we have suffered
without a semblance of an excuse.
o
While the sales of consumers
goods have shown a good improve-
ment, there Is as yet little en-
couragement In the domain of pro-
ducts which require the investment
of capital. Even after the bankers
have been told by the President
to be more liberal to concerns
which will have to have money to
meet the added labor and other
costs under the "New Deal." these
bankers are not responding Hence
money Is "tight" In spite of the
fact that It is theoretically abun-
dant.
o
The Claude News Editor, at m
time, had reference to the Small
Country Banks, who are under the
thumb of the General Bank Heads
to a certain extent, and when this
paper hits the Central Bank Heads
just where they should be hit and
hit properly, we had no reference
to the little country banks, re-
gardless of how they take it or
when they think it means such
small banks. These little country
banks are to be plttled more than
centured, for they have made noth-
, lng, when they should have been
making a living, at least.

Q. Will my Blue Eagle be with-
drawn if I am unable to comply
with all the provisions of the
permanent code of my industry?
A. Permanent codes provide the
| manner of their administration.
! Any appeal to provisions of ad-
i ministration must be made to the
administrative body established
• In the code.
I Q. There are two firms in my
town which have not signed the
; the President's agreement. What
do you advise?
I A. Some have not signed be-
i cause the do not understand the
purposes; others because they feel
they cannot. In any event, they
deserve no critical comment until
their cases have been considered
by the local compliance board. A
dependable method has been de-
signed and is operated to take
care of any case of any kind with-
out detriment to any member who
: wants recovery.
I Q. Owners of small establish -
Iments here complain they are "be-
| ing told" they may work only 54
hours per week. Is this correct?
' A. No. The President's Reem-
ployment Agreement places no 11m-
! Itation on hours in towns of less
than 2,500 population.
Q. When an employer signed
the President's Reemployment A-
greement, is he permitted to add
this clause: "Provided that we
waive no constitution right or im-
munity"?
] A. No. There can be no modi-
fications or "interpretations" ex-
[cept the regularly authorized "con-
' sent clause" referring to substltu-
i tlons or to labor contracts made
i prior to signing. Ultimately e-
1 vasions will be prosecuted.
| Q. I am an American citizen liv-
i lng aboard, engaged in improving
1 American products. Am I entitled

I tlons are manufactured by firms

vided further, you have yourself

INFANT INDUSTRIES. It took a
real President, like Hon. Franklin
iD. Roosevelt to prove that this
i was a falsehood spoken and written
by thousands who were too ignorant
to write or speak on this subject,
or they were working in the In-
terest of the Centrial Banks, the
.Combines. Trusts and Corporations,
for the money they were receiving
for what they wrote and what
they said against the Far
nur. President Roosevelt, the Far-
mer's Friends, has put a quietus
to such diabolical ROT. When the
time came that the Farmer must
be helped or the nation would
'perish, there came along "A Moses"
; that will lead "The Children of
I Israel out of Egypt and into the

COMPARISON ASSESSED TAXES
—RAILROAD vs: MOTOR
TRUCK TRANSPOR-
TATION
In a recent pamphlet published
and circulated by the railroads of
Texas we find some rather stag-
gering facts in tax comparison—
the railroads vs: truck transpor-
tation. Of course these figures are
based upon ad valorem taxes asses-
sed against each by the cities,
[counties and state—these figures do
not include the special motor and
truck fees paid by motor trans-
portation under the special laws
governing and which are quite
a lot more than the ad valorem
tax. But when one digests these
facts and finds that the railroads
of Texas have paid or are paying
each yeur. an aveiuge of $8,595.-
000 Into the different cities and
counties for this tax, when the ag-
gregate of the ad valorem of the
motor transportation tax Is only
$40,000 we wonder how people,
knowing these facts, ean afford
to throttle the big taxpayer by giv-
ing their business to the Interests
i There's an old man visiting our
country,
Some never saw him before.
He is calling upon the gentry,
And barely missing a door.
He came without being Invited.
And he's reluctant in taking his
leave;
I'm sure we will all be delighted.
When the notice "He's gone" we
receive.
His face is wrinkled and hag-
gard.
His clothes are all tattered and
torn,
He walks with the step of a lug-
gard,
And Is bent with the load he
has born;
There is woe in his every ex-
pression,
But it seems like no fault of his;
The old man's name Is "Depres-
sion."
He's the offspring of Greed and

WHAT THE STARS INDICATE
By
Madam Delphina
October 4th: A period of solidi-
fication in financial matters. Chief
Interests of the day will be more
racketeering, sudden storms, dis-
appointing social affairs. The com-
imon everyday affairs of the home,
[and some attention to hotels and
restaurants. Labor disturbances are
likely. Further disappointments in
j regard to the public debt are
probable. Strange deaths of promi-
' nent people or litigation because
of such deaths mav take place at
this time. Mental keyword, "Pro-
paganda."
1 October 5th: An unfavorable day
for women in business as well
as for any prominent people. Any
charity drives promoted on this
day are likely to meet with op-
position. Mental keyword. "Deter-
mination."
October 6th: Stabilizing action
in regard to transportation, com-
munication and publications. Things
of artistic, social and literary na-
deep study. Mental keyword,
"Struggle."
October 7th: Constructive effort
on this day should accomplish
much, especially In Law Courts
kidnaping cases, which will occupy
the arena of public attention at
this time. Accidents, fires and other
Mars events will probably claim
many headlines on the newspapers.
Not a good day for social events.
Mental keyword, "Mastership."
October 8th: Thoughts concern-
ing the wealth and personal pro-
perty of people and also foreign
debt relations will be given at-
tention at this time, with the bal-
ance In favor of the home folks.
Some peculiar deaths among la-
boring people are likely. Mental
keywords. "Intuition and Fidelity."
October 9th: A day for writers
and publications. We can look for
expansion in matters of mechani-
cal labor and the steel industry,
or disruptions in the departments
of stored products of soil and
mines, also labor. This is not a
good day to start new projects.
Not a good day for social or
artistic world. Mental keyword.
"Reason."
October 10th: A good day for art
and writing. Socially, beware of in-
discreet associations where money
is involved. A good time for pro-
fessional and industrial people a-
like to seek favors from those in
authority. Mental keyword, "Moods."
NOTE: Let anyone who has an
important question hand such ques-
tion to the Editor of this paper,
giving name and address also when
and where born, and enclosing a
3c stamp. It will be forwarded to
the office of the A. and W. Press
Syndicate, and through that Syn-
dicate the answers to your ques-
tions will be sent to this paper

"OUR WEEKLY CHURCH CHAT"
"ACTS OF THE APOSTLES''
Part II.
The book of Acts is the most im-
portant book in the New Testa-
ment. because it reveals the work
and activities of the Apostles who
were commissioned to go "Into all
the world and preach the gospel."
Thee narrative of Matthew, Mark.
Luke and John record what Jesus
begin to do (Acts 1:1 > but the
book of Acts records the accom-
plishment of His work. The chief
agent in the book is the ascended
Christ, operating through the
Holes Spirit, with the chosen A-
postles as the direct media of com-
munion with mankind. The Apos-
tles were divinely chosen and
their qualifications were super-
naturally and their work, once per-
formed, remains In the Infallable
record of the New Testament, for
the avantage of the church and
the world in all future ages. They
are the only authoritive teachers
of Christian doctrine and law.
The scope of the entire book
of Acts shows how the Church of
Jesus Christ was established, the
terms of admission into the church
and the laws and ordinances of
this new organization. The A-
poMles, endowed with power from
on high, begin to preach the gos-
pel; multitudes of heaven believed
and obeyed the message; the o-
bedient belivers were formed Into
local churches of Christ under the
supervision of elders and deacons;
these congregations had fellowship
in temporal matters; the gospel
spread over Asia Minor and the
entire Mediterranean world; and in
such manner the period of world-
wide evangelism was begun.
The book of Acts gives us the
account of the preaching of the
apostles, the early conversions, the
establishment of churches, the mis-
sionary and evangelistic policy and
program of the Holy Spirit. When
we realize that the Book of Act;;
serves us the divine guide In all
matters pertaining to the estblish-
