SMALL DOSE—TO START WITH

PAPAKEECHIE LAKE A letter from John Nebro, written about a week ago from Korea to his mother, Mrs. A1 Burson, brings the battle field rather close. John says in part, “We are really in it now, about eighteen miles northwest of Tague. The “Gooks” went down a hill that we shelled all day yesterday, into boats, rafts, anything that would float, to get across the river, some of them even swam; so last night, and all day today, there have been about eight batteries of field artillery shelling the river. I suppose that we roated eight thousand Gooks off that one hill. Every time we go out, we gain ground, but we paid heavy—two officers from our platoon, and two tanks with crew. The Gooks put dynamite in carts and ran then! into tanks, from the side. It doesn’t hurt the tank, but the concussion knocks out the driver, the Gooks swarm the tanks. Otherwise they have nothing that can knock out the tanks —they are afraid of them.— Haven’t been in bed for three days. The air force is doing a good job here, they bomb hell out of them.—l think there are millions of Gooks. We kill hundreds every day, but still they keep coming.

he is just about to be accepted, when somebody sounds off with “1 knew him when—." "I knew him when he was a boy and he was a neighborhood nuisance. I knew him when he

used to live here. Dr. Foreman and his family were no-account. I knew him when he was in school and he never had high grades. I knew him before he amounted to anything, so he can’t amount to anything now. • * * A Case Against Peter IT IS A GOOD thing the Christian church never took that attitude about the Apostles, and a very good thing they didn’t take that line with Peter. It is true that he did not come out of the top drawer. It is quite true that when he was young he was no prize specimen. In fact, it would not be hard to make almost as strong a case against him as against Judas, if you take Simon Peter at his low point. “Shall we keep Peter on our list?" Suppose you had been one of the other apostles and had been asked that question the night after the crucifixion. If you had not had a rather generous heart, you could easily have turned in an unfavorable report. ‘‘Well." yon might have said, “he has some good points. He Is sometimes on the alert, never falls for something to say. Bat be doesn't always come through In a pinch. I understand the Lord took him up to the top of the mountain when he was transfigured, and what did that jnan do but go to sleep? Any would have given our right eye to have been there. But we never did get much of a story out of poor old Simon Peter. He was asleep most of the time. “And do you remember that dinner when Mary poured all that ointment over Jesus’ head? It was a beautiful thing tor her to do, I mean her motive was beautiful. But Peter complained about It. “Then there was the night—only last night, but It seems a year away —when Jesus took Simon Peter and those two others Into the garden with him. All the Master wanted was company. But old Peter was asleep again in no time. “But that’s not the worst. Last night at the supper table Peter bragged about how brave he was—got out a couple of swords *in fact —and he swore that even if every one else denied the Master, he wouldn’t. But just before cock-crow he showed himself up for a liar and a coward. Some girl, just a girl, mind you, somebody out of the kitchen, said she knew he was a friend of Jesus. And this Peter starts swearing in the ugliest kind of language that he never knew Jesus, his very best friend. “Well, Judas hanged himself, and Peter might as well .... I don’t see how he can possibly hold his head up again after last night." • • • Man of Power NEVERTHELESS, Peter became a hero, a man of power. Look at his story in Acts 5-5. A recognized leader of the Christians, defying the very men of whom he had once been so afraid; honest, rockribbed, standing up tor the Master when it meant risking his life to do so. Even If you could not believe the miracle-stories which are told about him in Acts, you would have to admit that It is not every man who has mir-acle-stories told about hffn. It is no weakling who has the reputation of being able to raise men from the dead and to kill liars with a glance of the eye. • • • Transforming Secret WHAT WAS the secret of Peter’s transformation from the halfbraggart, half-coward he used to be, to the stalwart fearless man of power he became? The answer is in those stories in our Scripture readings from Matthew and John. The first tells of Jesus’ faith in Simon Peter. The second tells of that again, and also of Peter's response to Jesus* faith to him. It is the secret of any Christian’s success to being all that God knows he can be.

S. Department of Agriculture. USDA scientists tested 11 different vegetables on tour various types of shelf equipment used to small and medium-sized markets. One of these was a sloping Ice-bed rack, while the other three were horizontal trays. On one of these, the vegetables were garnished with a cover of shaved Ice; the second was merely sprinkled with cold water at Intervals. The third was used as a dry-rack display. In nearly all cases, the Ice-bed kept the produce fresher, greener and crisper than other type displays during the four-day test period. The low temperature of this kind of shelf—usually around 45 degrees —held disease to a minimum. The moisture was enough for toe vegetables to maintain—or even gain weight The rack garnished with ice maintained a low temperature during toe day but when unattended at night, the ice melted and toe temperature rose enough to let disease get started. More moisture accumulated and the vegetables gained weight Vegetables on the rack sprinkled with water suffered from warm temperatures during the afternoon, which advanced aging. The produce on the dry trays remained to good condition for only a short period of time and spoiled rapidly at room temperature. Radishes, green onions, beets, beans and peas appeared to benefit more from cool, moist conditions than did egg plant, cucumbers and squash. In fact egg plant was the only vegetable which seemed tq. be unaffected by the entire experiment. It remained the same on each of the four racks during the four days) WILL AID FRESHMEN AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY Mildred Bushong, of Syracuse, is one of more than 79 Indiana University students who have been spending a large part of their summer vacation extending a friendly hand to Hoosier high school graduates who will enroll this fall as freshmen at I. U. All campus leaders, this group has volunteered its services to the University’s Junior Division which is charged with giving personal guidance to beginning students. Not waiting to greet the freshmen when they arrive on the campus, these campus leaders have engaged in personal correspondence with the freshmen-to-be, answering the questions about studies and living conditions that freshmen always have. And when the freshmen orientation program opens Sept. 20 on the Bloomington campus, the campus leaders will be on hand to help them get acquainted with their new school-year home. The program is a part of the Junior Division’s counseling service which provides each entering student with individual guidance throughout his beginning year so that he can successfully bridge the gap between high school and college.

STATE WELL COLLECT $315,600 FROM MOTORLSTS OVER WEEK-END Most Labor Day motorists will probably come home with considerably less money in their pockets than when they left, but the state treasury will come out ahead of the game. Some $345,600 in state gasoline taxes will flow into the state coffers as a result of motoring activities over the week-end Todd Stoops of the Hoosier Motor Club said today. About 1,059,450 cars are expected to be on the highways in Indiana and they will consume an estimated 8,640,(M>0 gallons of gasoline while traveling some 127,872,00 miles, Mr. Stoops said.

H e estimated that Indiana motorists would pay a total of $475,200, of which $129,600 would go to the federal government and $345,600 to the state. There is 1% cent federal tax on each gallon of gasoline and a 4 cent state tax. "Indiana motorists, who are conceded to be among the heaviest taxed groups in the state, will find no respite from gasoline taxes over the week-end,” Mr. Stoops said. ‘“There taxes add heavily to the cost of running our automobiles, whether for business or pleasure.” — Read the Journal Ads.
