O—O Never wa*s there a more important time to stiffen up high school courses in United States history, where they need It. than right now when the nation is engaged In an all-out war. It is wrong for secondary schools to fall to Instill in youths about to be drafted into the army an adequate knowledge of how and why thfe nation and its Institutions have come to be what they are. It had been common knowledge that In many sections of the country the teaching of the nation's history was woefully neglected in high school or performed in a most desultory way. The New York Times, by a history test taken by 7.000 college freshmen in thirty-six universities and colleges, has demonstrated the fact that students are not only Ignorant of their country's origins and development but also possessed of false fnfcrinaiion of what they think they know. Only six percent of the 7.000 could name the ihirieen original states, and only six percent, apparently, knew anything about- - Nullification Act. Many did not know who was President lu the Civil War and th. number that came near passing was far from a majority O—O Bonks Serve In War:

Every community with a good bank appreciates the services rendered by the banking institution. Chairman Le T Crowley of the F• d<-ral Deposit Insurance Corporation. summed the services in a pottiit paragraph In his report to President Roosevelt. He said: "Today the bunks of the nation are playing a vital part in the pros'< ution of the war. They are mt-klug Ivane to agriculture and to industry to promote production of foods and of other essential civilian and war goods. They are selling War Bonds to savers and investors and arc buying tliem fcr their own accounts. In spite of shortages of tiain>d manpower and equipment, they have undertaken willingly to assist in the adiniuistratiuu ot rationing by collecting and clearing ration coupons. Their lobbies arc crowded as long lines of customers form in front of the tellers’ window* seeking to deposit their money or cash their pay checks - Deposits in commercial hanks are ' at an all-time high ot 39" billion held in 70.000,00« i accounts, and the safety f these accounts is uu'iuestiooud." &—O A Coffee Deol: America is gaining control of vast quantities of coffee, but how soon it will reach the domestic markets 1s not predictable. The t'nited Mtatss is completing purchase of unshipped portions of Brasil's ccffce quotas tor 1941 and 1942 in compliance with the agreement between the two nations entered Into last fall. The Vnited States is helping to maintain the economies of Latin nations by buying surpluses aicumulating becauae of war conditions. Th* < offee purchase will be made through the Commodity Credit Corporation and will be exclusively from accredite<l coffee exporters, according to the standard* of the New York coffee exchange. The transactions will be conducted through regular commercial channels uud provide precautions agalnat adversely affecting the established < offee markets. The I nited States is to acquire uu hippen portion* of the quota tor 1841-42. or 2.<st*.»M bags, and as much as possible of tbc 1912-43 basic of 9 300.000 bags which rem*ius uushipped by private traders at the and of tbc quota year on SepteusiMi 30. 1943.

LENTEN MEDITATIONS fllev Paul W Schults. Zion Lutheran Church* “Temporal and Spiritual Freedom” •Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made ut free.” Galatians 5:1. What a significant and magnificent word is the word freedom to us. Few nations on earth have ever been the happy possessors of such fr edoins as this blessed nation of ours. By the God-fearing directions of our forbears and the watchful preservation by following generalions we still enjoy freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the pr s*. freedom from slavery, freedom In the God-given unalienable tights of life liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. What fools would we be if. after possessing and t-Xper lencing th blessings of su< h freedom*. w« would carelessly and stupidly dissipate thia heritage and cowardly stagger into bondage. My fellow redeemed, there is yet al>ove all this a much, much greater freedom fork-ven all people of all races, classes, and calors. It Is the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free. He ha* redeemed us front the curse of the Law of God which curs is justly upon everyone who continues not in all ihings written therein to do them Through faith In the Redeemer J sus and His vicarious atonement, fully and richly proclaimed by the Gospel, we are free from a just retribution in damnation. We are fre from fear eternally and In time, free from a guilty and condemning conscience, free to know and live a truly happy, full, and marvelously pleasant life in Hnie and In all sterility, b cause God is our refug- and strength and heaven is our home. Can there be a greater liberty and freedom? Our mistakes and follie* have r ached all heights if w.- fail to possess or If we dissipate and lose this greatest freedom and live forever In a bondage untathomably greater than any civil or political bondage cv i could lie.

tance with (I<>d in the righteousness of JeS'.ia Christ. Christ wrought perfect righteousness for Us on the Crons and In Hi* resurrection, and that righteousness Go I imputes, reckons, credits to us when we ac- i cept Jesus Christ and Him alone for our salvation."
