, Stassen Would Invest In Peace ' ' " ' j ': ' - Harold E. Stassen told the people in Iowa the other day ;.hat America should be prepared to set asjde 10 per cent of ts production for the next 10 years to build world-wide peace,

)lenty-and freedom. That would amount to something like

$15 billion a year in goods and food. Mr. Stassen boldly pro

poses that we trade these goods, not for money, not primar

ily for other goods, but for agreements that will make the

world a safer and freer place to live in. He hastens to remark

that his plan is riot a Cream, but a "practical, sound, long-

visioned, businesslike approach to the situation that exists in

the world today." .

When Henry Wallace proposes $150 billion in American

aid for world reconstruction, it is "visionary." But maybe

Mr. btasseit can get away; with it. He is-indeed, only saying

n his own' Way what many others have said before him that

this country is the sole undevastated reservoir of economic

;trength ; that if we would build a world of stability and se

curity. we,must find some way, yhether by loans, gifts, trad-

ng arrangements or otherwise, . to make that reservoir ac

cessible to other peoples. .-'.

Mr. Stassen wisely argued against imposing our will on

those who accept our aid. He also argued that our aid "should

not include under any circumstances arms or munitions for

others. It is difficult to reconcile these principles with his

proposal that beneficiaries of our aid guarantee not to move

farther' toward Socialism. Whether they so move is a matter for them, not for us, to decide. But Mr. Stassen is on : the right track. The vital question is whether we are willing to invest for peace a fraction of what we will invest for - war. His answer is "Yes." ' . From The Chicago Sun

How times have changed! It used to be the' farmer who plowed the straightest row that was rated a No. 1 farmer. Now, it's the fellow who can follow his contour! Check-rowing is going to cause some studying. ' ,. . : . Happiness has been called a twin: Have-it and Share-it. . MacLeish said something when he called it "the long labor "of Liberty. It must be persevered in, sacrificed for, and defended desperately." How good a gardener are you? Do you actually feel an interest in plants, their names, and habits of growth? If you love flowers you are missing a lot of iun if you don't go into this business of names. Some of them are really terrific. Why should the dear things have to be burdened with such a load? Thtre is a good reason, however. You'll "find the name has been given because of a characteristic of the plant. Alpinus is "of the mountains"; australis means southern, sylvestris signifies "of the wood," palustris is marsh-loving. With these descriptive names, you can pretty well ieil where these flowers are from and where they' will thrive. Even these jaw-breakers are

To, mention a few others, Old Maid's Bonnets, for Lupine, Angel Hair instead of Dodder (no farmer ever called it Angel Hair, surely), Wild Bergamot is Monarda Fistulosa (wouldn't that one make you shudder?) and almost anything would beat Scabiosa, don't you think? Lady's slipper is

dy favors. The pledges also found at their places jeweler boxes containing Greek letter recognition pins. Bouquets of the Sorority flower,' ' the white rose, together with standing baskets of spring

theme. Mrs. Carl Engle, the toastmistress, greeted the group and with her- imitiable sparkling wit presented an entertaining program of remarks by the President, Mrs, Gilmore; the lovely voice of Miss Jo Ann Reed, a pledge, in a number of songs; high lights of the party, and the clever - musical stunt given by the pledges. " Tho Robed Initiation Drill Team,, ... in., thrilling, perfection, conducted a ceremony which will long be a beautiful memory to the following new Delts: Norma Jean Able, Myrna Hughes, Beverly Moore, Elizabeth McElrath, Phyllis Valentine, LeAnn Wible, ToAnn Reed, Jo McCarter, Barbara Brown, Polly Steinmetz, Marjorie Gillespie, ' Helen Pfautsch Mrs. Hervey Ridgeway.

After a short business meeting with its notes of appreciation, the final reports of committees, the closing of the years work and records, the formal installation of the new officers was done most impressively. The following past officers were given recognition for their fine wbrk: Pres.; Mrs.

Harry C. Gilmore, V. Pres., Helen

Willis, Kec. Sec, Norma Harris,

Treaf.. Adeline Handford, Sgt.

it Arms. Janice Pirtle, Historian, i Mildred Collins, ' Pub. Chrm., i Alyce Medsker and Dottie Lowry, ' Pledee.Supr., Helen Smith. . . I

And in turn, the new officers

"resented are: Pres., Helen Willis V. Pres.. Rose Self, Treas., Hester Thudium, Rec. Sec, Dorothea Tricker. Cor. Sec, Betty Jane

Sgt. at Arms, Nina German, Pub.

Marion Leota Gilmore accepted in her most gracious and eloquent manner the gavel insigna of her office which was presented

so appropriately on behalf of the chapter by the incoming presi-! derit, Helen Willis.The committee , in charge of ! the May Party were: Mrs.: Carl!

Where, oh, where is the whip-poor-will that last year called from the' woodland? He began sounding hij lament about the time the frogs started their Spring Chorus; but this year he didn't return. ... .- i Let us hope we have had our "blackberry winter". They've done it again! The maples have performed their Spring miracle one day bare limbs, the next definitely green, by the end of the week a screen too dense for eyes to penetrate. What won't they think of next? Now it is 'trash' farming! Disc in all the weeds and trash, don't plow. Sounds more reasonable than some of the theories that come . our way. It seems to work on Johnson grass, that pest of the overflow lands.' ! .-. When asked which breed of chickens he liked best, Rastus replied, "All kinds has merits. De white ones are de easiest to find, but de dark ones is dc easiest to hide after you got 'em!" That is my attitude toward flowers the ones In bloom just now are' my favorites the NOW holds good all year. Same way about the Seasons, they all have merit.
