SLEEPING PRECIOUS DAY8 The next 100 days in America are precious; they may change the history of the work!.'

He wa? testifying ""before the House military coinmil<tee in ita investigation of the defenae program. General awakening ia necessary, he said, an nwakening to tho serious urgency of the tank before America. What is this urgency? It ia to arm Hritaln, Yugoslavia ami any others resisting the march of Germany. It is to feed those people if neeeasary or any part of thorn. It ia to build ships, warplanos, engines, tanks, cannon and the hundred other machines of war. It is to do these things also for ourselves. If wo waste the precious 100 dayB we may never got well startod on U1080 colosaul taaka. The war may bo' over before we can throw our in* dustrial, productive might on the side of the democracies.

I Camden Executive Is Chamber Guest (Continued from first page) hired by the school. At tho present time the Camden school has 80 employees In addition to tho army group. "Tho full quota of the cadets for the Camden school will be reached May 3, when there will be around 120 students receiving instruction. These cadets remain in Cartiden for ten weeks but a new class comes in every five weeks. "The objective of the school Is not only to make flyers out of the students but to mould them Into officers. When they complete their 30 weeks course they become second lieutenants In the army air corps. "After 'being commissioned they are taught gunnery, bombing and use of the secret bomb sight, and also olheh technical training. They receive their final polishing off at either Mitchell Field or at the air corps station at Savannah. "I believe the United States army and navy are now turning out as fine and efficient pilots as there are In the world. Their bravery Is unsurpassed and the planes they pilot have speed In excess of the planes of any other power. This nation, which is the bulwark of Democracy, Is fast becoming the most powerful nation on land, sea and in the air. In a few months, at the present rate of preparedness the United States will be able, alone, to defend American shores from any nation or group of nations that might dare to attack -us. '"We arc now the mightiest nation on earth. We guarantee all nations, that democracy as we know it, shall always prevail. We promise the world that those principals of freedom for. which the brave pioneers of our country fought and died for some two centuries ago shall not have been in vain. We promise the world that no dictator shall ever raise his head in this, the greatest nation in the world today. A nation which shall forever be a nation where free peoples live."

A TRIP TO FLORIDA IN 12 PARTS (Pert Five) ?We used to think that maybe If bathing milts were made out of cotton instead of wool, silk and rayon, there would not bo any surplus cottou lu the XL S, In a year or so. But since examining tho Miami Beach 1941 patterns and designs, wo have decided that It doesn't matter what kind of stuff they uro.mudu of: uo producer of tho required raw materials will benefit therefrom. Some of them are almost "Forgets" or "What's the use." Of course we are talking only about women with tine llgureB. Tho overweight females still wear the Mother-Hubbard patterns. ?-My home state would like to have a few of tho Florida untaxed Items to romp on. As a matter of fact, we have run out of things to tax up my homo way. Wo can on'y resort to taxing the already over-taxed things two times Instead of one. Soft drinks and cigarettes have not yet been taxed by the state. Some cities In Florida run Miemselvos absolutely on the income derived from their own wuteT and electric light plants. The bondholders get all of the real and personal proporty tAxes that are collected. ?We ran across a real German Bun* der In the flesh today. He hulled from Phila. Ho Worshipped Hitler. He loved Bob Reynold (I>?-NC). Ho believes Lindbergh has wings. He thought Wheeler was a saint at first, and now he knows he's one. He said England would get wiped out in April 1941, this year. Her ships and guns are old and worn-out. And furthermore, our help to the Allies Is worse than nothing. Stalin is the only man In the w orld who knows anything at all, except, of course Herr Hitler. After he finished his spiel, we told him that we would sell him our Interests in the few animals he had referred to so lovingly for exactly nothing, and that he was evidently living far away from his rightful home, Germany or Russia. He hated Senator Pepper worst of all. (This won't be printed for two weeks.... nobody knws w hat will happen by then). ?The weather in Florida Is Ideal for use b y a lazy person, and that's all of our crowd. We sleep and relax, and. then we eat, and have to relax all over again. If we could understand what those Cubans and those Mexicans are saying on the radio, we might enjoy the radio occasionally. They (these furrlners) rule the air in this part of the country. The parts of the dial they are not using Is full of static. So long until tomorrow I A TRIP TO FLORIDA IN 12 PARTS (Part 8lx) ^ ?It looks like these Florida girls have started a new way to fix tho hair, meaning their own hair: not mine. I haven't any. If this Is really a new style, 1 t's going to be mighty tough on tho permanent wavers. All that they do to it (from a casual glance) is run their finger through it, muss It up, scatter It around, ani| leave It Just so. It hangs kind of loose and at random, hides the ears entirely, bulges out on each side, and encases the face so's it looks like a pretty little flapjack leaning up against the inside bottom of a frying pan. ?'Another somewhat noticeable change is?the Florida dresses appear to 'be about 2 Inches shorter than the "up home" dresses, and goodness they are short enough for all risible purposes. I have seen more knees since I left home than I ever saw in all my life up to 1929. And they aint bad looking either. Japan need not worry* any more about her silk exports. It will take twice as much silk as of 1929 to snake a pair of hose long enough for 1941, but they have Just about climbed their limit. And, folks?women are going to wear silk hose as long as silk worms spin. I?Clothes fit more loosely down here than up yonder: this refers to both men and women, but we are talking primarily of the latter. The garments Just sort of hang on and take their course. You've seen these inside-the-house clothes drying racks? Well, Just add beauty, poise, swing, lustre, chewing gum and cigarettes bo the rack, and you have a Florida belle. They say down hero that the rich girls dress poorly and the poor girls dress richly. You can't always tell about an egg by looking at its shell. ?We have not seen ah old model car since we left home except a few which bear a Florida tag. Tourists from everywhere have come down in new vehicles, and it looks like most 1 of them were bought for cash. We gathered this information from the fact that none of them seem to have a mortgage on them that - weights them down on one side or the other, like our own installment plan, for Instance. Our mortgage has settled in the left rear" wheel: it's 2 inches lower than the other side. (Listen in again tomorrow). E)ach household is limited to Ave cats by law In Topeka, Kan.

AMOCO COMPANY NOW MARKETING NEW GA8 Returning today, from a sales and advertising conference hold at Charlotto Hotel, Chariot to. N C., 11. F Speaks, local diatrlbutor for the American Oil Company, stated that through tho completion of the world's flint commercial hyd reform lug unit, hia company la market lag a new type [ gasoline. Pioneers <tid not pass with tho cov' ei*ed wagon. Scientists ami choiuiaU are piy.oneerlu4j in new. .fields dally. For many years, petroleum chemists have been searching for efficient methods to "Reform" or convert low octane naphtas Into high antiknock gusollnes. Hydroforminff, which is a new process involving the ubq of high temperatures and pressures, carried out in the presence of hydrogen pas and a hewly discovered catalyst, has now solved this problem. Tho hydroformi!\g process, ho stated, Is of groat interest to National Defense because It not only produces a new high anti-knock gasoline for automobiles,-*- but It opens a" now source Tor the production of high octane aviation gasoline and a large potential supply of toluene, a substance vitally needed In the manufacture of T. N. T. Officials of tho company, ho said, .old of the new robot control hoard usod In the hianufacturo of this product. The Control board removes tho element of chance during manufacture and guarantees precise uniformity of *lho product. Tho product from the Texas City Plant will be blended Into tho principal grades of gasoline marketed by the American Oil Company. Mr. Speaks further stated that comprehensive tests of the product Indicated that it would give smoother, more efficient high octane road performance. He concluded his remarks by stating that this new hydroformlng process has boen enthusiastically acclaimed by the petroleum industry, not only for its contribution to the manufacture of quality gasolines but as a distinct scientific advance. BRAVERY MEDAL FOR LANCASTER CITIZEN According to press association reports coming from Oamp Stewart, Georgia, Corporal Joseph Q Adams of the 107th South Carolina separate battalion (the I^ancaster unit of the National Guard under tho command of Captain William Green Williams) will be awarded the soldier's medal for bravery for saving the life of a child from drowning Hast summer. Corporal AdamSC^T^ and a native of Lancaster rescued nine-year old Richard Mcpherson at Fort Moultrie, S. C. last August while attending a bugler's school there. The child, playing In the water with a group of about 10 others from a nearby Catholic orphanage. was caught by an undertow. Adams and another soldier swam to tho child without even, taking time to remove their shoes or clothing. The other soldier became winded before the rescuo could be effected and Adums towed the drowning child In alone, then swam buck and helped his fellow soldier to safety.

NEGRO CROPPER BECOMES 6WNER AND GOOD LANDLORD Greenville, April 12.--The rise of C. C. Thomason, Greenville couniy Negro fanner, from cropper to landowner with sovorul tenants is a heartening story told by M. C. Rochester, farm management specialist of the Clemson College Extension Service. Thomason beguin his .farming career, almost 50 years ago, as a croppor on a 50-50 basis. After 8 years ho bought a mule aud some farming equipment and began farming as a tenant on a 1-3 and 1-4 Imsis. During 10 years under this arrangement he accumulated enough money to mako .the down payment on 37 acreB of land In 1910, with final payment In 1917. loiter ho sold this farm and bought a nearby farm of 110 acres to provide more land for an increasing family. Then he repurchased the 37 acres previously owned. Now ho has three cropper families on his land. Grow enough food and food products to supply the farm needs and have some for sale together with tho sale of the regular cash crops' is the rule followed -by Thomason and his three cropper families. He and thoy sell surplus vegetables from yearround gardens, chickens, eggs, milk, butter, and meats every week to customers in Greenville. , "Good productive land is essential for success in farming", says Thomason, discussing his farming methods. "Some of the land I purchased was so run-down and in such a poor state ' of cultivation that I was advised by the person then living on the farm to abandon it and clear} new land. Through the planting of soil-building crops, following crop rotations, using compost and litter, proper fertilization and farming practices, the same land Is producing a balo of cotton per acre'.' "Thomason'? cropper families make their living on tho farm by growing gardens, wheat, other? food patches, and -keeping cows, hogs, and chick- _ ens" says Mr. Itochestor. "Pastures are provided for croppers' cowb for which they are required to help keep tho pastures in good repair. Generally the only credit advances to croppers are for purchasing clothing and necessities which cannot bo produced on the fanm. 1 "In planning a successful tenancy system which will promote stability of cropper families, Thomason encourages them to so organize their farming that they will be kept busy. During periods "When croppers are not busy with their own crops Thomason , is generally able to employ them on a wage basis."

Similar conditions have been found to exist In damp Stump House mountain tunnel, once the drenin of engineers planning a railroad from Anderson. S. (\ to Knoxvlllo. Tenn. ' Started In 1868, the tunnel reaches nearly a mile and a half luto the mountain, a spur of the Blue Rid go. Work was started at the beginning of the War Between the States and has hot been resumed. Although the tunnel temperature does not vary more than two degrees a year, a brick partition with an air tight door was built 6(H) feet from the opening to help maintain constant temperature and humidity, essential to manufacture of blue-vein chees... The Clemison product will differ from tho French only In ono respect? the tunnel experiment is being conducted with cow's milk while French Roquefort Is made from ewe's milk. But only -an expert will bo able to tell the difference. When the curing period Is completed the cheese will bo removed and wrapped In tinfoil. If the experiment Is successful another market for southeastern dairy products will be opened. WIN8 FAME A8 WRITER Convict In Washington Prison la Earning $160 a Month Walla Walla. Wash., March 26?A convict serving a 16-year sentence In tho Washington state prison here is winning recognition as a writer. He Is Ralph Hunter, twenty-nine, who is following the footsteps of Jack Iyondon and O. Henry, who did their early writing behind bars. l^esB than five years ago Hunter slipped up on a "Job" and was wounded in the leg by a bullet. He was captured, convicted for assault and robbery and handed two concurrent 15year minimum sentences in the Washington penitentiary. Today ho is one of America's leading script writers. He dabbles in poetry and has sold a number of short stories, not to mention a prize winning 22,500-word serial, which netted $750. Although his world is bounded by- the four grey wails of The <pri?m, Hunter has developed from an inexperienced writer with only slight newspaper experience. Ho attributes his success to the help of a friend "outside". The friend is D. T. Wallace. Working in a corner of the prison printshop, Hunter learned rapidly. During tho past 16 months Hunter's Income from his writing has averaged $160 a month. The money is kept for him by relatives, for, as Hunter says: "I like about 500 other fellows, want to get out of here some day." Hunter started his prison writing career In 1938 when he sold a short story entitled "Farewell by Proxy" to t a national magazine. He is hoping now for a pardon. When it comes, he plans to continue his writing career. Unless the headlight reflectors of an automobile are polished often, they become tarnished and the light is not reflected evenly.
