TROOPS RFPFLSED (Continued from ]*affe One) tions seem to be based on the hope of a lightning war. Ours are not and can not be." Britain’s fast long range bombing planes could easily cross Germany to Poland. One reason why they have not been sent is probably that the Germans bombed Polish airports a.nd made them unfit to receive planes. Another is that the Royal air force would have to send ground crews to Poland to receive British planes. Also, it was said, isolated bomber units could not have had much influence on the war on the East. A fourth and probably decisive reason xas that the dispatch of bombing planes to Poland did not fit in with the government’s pre-arranged plans. Recognizing public impatience, the information ministry said: "By dint of great exertion we had before the outbreak of war built up in extremely powerful Navy and Air orce and we had created the skeleton of an extremely powerful army. That ikeleton is now having flesh put on t. It is now being supplied with a 'ast industrial push which will support its ever growing weight and— nuch faster than between 1914 and 918 make a contribution to the allied effort or land in every way conforming to the resources of our country and to the desires of our people." POLISH-RUM ANI AN FONTIER, Sept. 16 (UP) The vanguard of diplomatic refugees accredited to Poland crossed the border into Rumania today on the advice of the Polish government, as flying columns of German tanks and trucks plunged deep into southeast Poland. British and French diplomats were the first to desert Zaleszezyki, the little frontier market town, within 25 miles of both the Rumanian and Russian borders, where Poland's government made a stand after three hasty moves in 12 days. Polish officials, including President Ignacy Moscicki, still were at Zaleszezyki but they notified the foreign diplomats that the town no longer was safe and that their escape to Rumania might be cut off at any time.

Good Taste in Pictures was the general topic for the day. Miss Beadle first discussed the framing and hanging of pictures. She said that only frames which add character to pictures should be used. In hanging pictures one should take into account the number used, height, background, supports, the relation of pictures to wall space and furniture, grouping, and lighting. Miss Beadle exhibited a large number of pictures, and classified th:m as to type, subject matter, and usableness. Some of the art principles essential are good proportion, emphasis, rhythm, balance, repetition, and variation. She said that the only reason for having pictures is that they contribute to the happiness of those who see them. They add to the enjoyment of our homes by the decoration they provide, and enrich our lives by their cultural and inspiration qualities. It is always possible to find pictures which satisfy both personal taste and the requirements of art principles. County officers attending the meeting included Mrs. Walter Dorsett, chairman; Mrs. Dennis Jones, vice-chairman; and Mrs. Leo Terry, secretary-treasurer. Local president and leaders included: Cloverdale, Mrs. Charles Denny, Mrs. Mamie Bockius, Mrs. Vera Sackett, and Mrs. Belle Kendall; East Floyd. Mrs. Addison Huber, and Mrs. Cecil Miller; West Floyd.
