Newspapers in Pennsylvania, 265 of
them, have celebrated “press prestige"
this week. Governor Earle tells the edi
tors, presumably shivering with de
light and surprise, about “the impor
tant part that newspapers play in the
lives of our people.” It is as im-
ple’s eyes and ears, and might be taken
for granted by now.
Napoleon knew about it when he
said that, if he.allowed freedom of
the press, his power would not last six
weeks. Stalin, Hitler and Mussolini
could make speeches about It

The newspaper is a mirror in which
the public sees Itself, the newspa
per’s owner and the civilization of the
nroment. Interesting rejections of
that civilization may appear soon in
Jispatohes from Ethiopia and from
London in case Mussolini should send
his first 500 airplanes In the direction
of Buckingham palace, the house of
commons. Downing street and the
Bank of England, 'xlth the message:
“What do you think of explosive and
mustard gas sanctions?"
The pathetic thing In Journalism, as
in politics, Is the lack of names that
the people know. Millions of Ameri
cans redd newspapers with no faintest
conception as to the character of the
man whose newspaper they read. It
might be called “anonymous nonen
tity." There are exceptions.
The most Important and Influential
newspaper by far. In proportion to cir
culation. Is the so-called “country
newspaper," smaller dailies and week
lies.
Their readers know who runs them,
and those readers, not living in city
apartments, with a can oj>ener, buy
everything from the paint on the roof to
the cement In the cellar floor, from the
piano and radio In the sitting room to
the car In the garage.
Berlin says the Nazi party plans,
forcibly, to buy out all Jewish firms
and businesses, suggesting that “am
bltlous Aryan business men will eet
great bargains." One Idea is to allow
“Aryan" employees to take over Jew
ish businesses with government back
Ing. They might take It over, but
what abofit running It? Anybody may
buy a business; making It pay Is an
other Job.
The Republican committee will have
“an Important meeting” now, a really
big, first-class, “bang-up” meeting in
December, to put “pep” Into the lltt0
campaign.
The question Is, “Who Is your man?"
Americans want to yell for some
body.
They have not been trained to yell
for an idea.
Who Is your man? What Is hit
name?
Amusing situation in Europe: Eng
land sends her gigantic fleet to the
Mediterranean, heaviest dreadnaughts,
submarines, airships; parks them
around the rock of Gibraltar and at
the entrance of the Suez canal; sends
additional soldiers to the Island of
Malta.
Mussolini puts his convenient Island,
off the coast of Greece, In a state of
siege, with submarines, airplanes, cut
ting the Mediterranean in two, isolat
ing the big English fleet In the western
end.
Then England, having shown an
ardent desire to fight Italy, sends offi
cial word that she really hadn't any
war with Italy In mind, her feelings
were hurt by the Italian newspapers.
That Is why she sent her fleet
ADVENTURERS’
CLUB
“Nearly the Last Round-Up”
By FLOYD GIBBONS
—~ -J Famous Headline Hunter.
A VAST there, mates! I mean “Hold ’em, cowboy!”
Gosh, I don’t know what kind of lingo a sea-cowboy uses, but I
know the kind I would have used if I’d been ^board the cattleboat,
S. S. Winefredlan, in mid-Atlantic, that wild March night WtthrPeter
Mullan and 700 head of plunging, terrified cattle.
Pete came so close to going on the Last Round-Up or to Davy Jones’ locker
that It wasn’t funny. Incidentally the S. Sr Winefredlan has since slipped quietly
down the stays to Davy Jones’ locker, so maybe she was just playing a re
hearsal for'Pete.
Cattleboats, Pete says, are hot exactly floating palaces:' In fact, they’re gen
erally made-over tubs. -
The Winefredlan was no exception to the rule. Her under-decks
were just a mass of cattle stalls with a narrow passage—just wide
enough to allow a man to pass—running the length of the ship.
Pete, two other greenhorn cattlemen and an underforeman were nursemaids
to the steers on the ship, and this^snT such a bad way to earn a trip td Europe
—unless you hit a bad storm. And then it’s awfu’

of Surplus for Gardeners
DeWolf Hopper Is dead at seventy-
seven, too soon. He worked to the
last, talked over the radio in the after
noon, and was dead at 6:30 next morn
ing. He should find a good seat re
served for him in the entertainment
that lasts forever, in a better world.
He spent his life working to make
people smile and forget their sorrows.
At Council Bluffs, Iowa, John Slat-
;ery, seventy-one, and at present “on
■elief,” sits In his one-room “shack,”
covered with tar paper, wondering
ivhat be will do this winter with twin
laughters, that his twenty-four-year-
)ld wife added to the earth’s popular
tlon ten days ago. He married her
when she was seventeen and he sixty-
four.

Each year the average gardener
has a ’surplus problem. His garden
normally produces more vegetables
during the summer than he and his
family can consume.
This sji.r^us—of little value In the
summef-^-can be used during the
winter in preparing a variety of
tasty and wholesome dishes if the
extra vegetables are properly stored
in cellat-s, attics, or other suitable
places. Storing of vegetables also
lightens the annual canning work
v
Beets, late cabbage, carrots, cel
ery, onions, parsnips, potatoes, sweet
potato?*, salsify, pumpkins, squash,
and turnips may be stored In their
natural condition. Beans of various
kinds, including the llmas, may he
dried and stored.
A half-acre garden, according to
horticulturists of the United States
Department of Agriculture, will, if
properly cared for, produce enough
vegetables for year-around use by
the average family.
Cellars containing a furnace usu
ally are too warm and dry for stor-
Ihg root~crops, but •- room may be
partitioned off in one corner or end
of the cellar and temperature con
trolled by means of outside windows.
Outdoor cellars may be built at a
low cost ^
The total factory consumption of
all animal and vegetable fats and
oils In thls country last year amount
ed to 3,355,555,000 pounds. More
than one-third, 1,375,416,000 pounds
went Into soap manufacture. Com
pounds and vegetable shortenings
came next, and paint and varnish
third. As might be expected, the
largest single item was cottonseed
oil, 1,083,059,000 pdunds. Next in
order of large Items were: Edible
tallow, 585,896,000 pounds; -coconuf
The storm hit the cattlebbht when she was out in the middle of the Atlantic
ocean, and the old ship groaned, plung&tf an#-rolled on her beam ends at an
alarming angle.
The crowded cattle—seasick and mad with terror—shrieked and
kicked at every-pitch of the ship, and Pete says it was plain bedlam be
tween decks.
But, storm or no storm, the helpless beasts had to be taken care of and
Pete and his shipmates were right down among them doing the best they could.
- Monster waves plunged In through the open upper-deck hatch and thejneg
and cattle swished around knee-deep li^sea water.
Now if you'vs never been on a cattleboat you are probably wonder,
ing why they didn’t close the' hatch and keep the water out, but the
trouble with that is that it also keep* the air out, and if you’ve ever
been on one of those loaded beef, ferries you know what that meant.
The stench and heat from the tightly packed steers would kill a man with
a gas-mask ou!
Giant Wave Threatens Death to All.
8o the hatch was left open and the water poured In and the good ship wal
lowed In the high seas like a ham-strung calf at a rodeo.
It was four o’clock in the morning, Pete says, when the crisis came. The
men were ladling out fresh water to the frantic cattle when a monster wave
slapped the weary side of the ship and Pete thought it was all over.
Pete was standing in ths narrow passags-way with his mates when
that wave struck. The ship keeled over to a 45-degree angle and flung
the cattle in heaps to ths port side of their stalls.
She paused there as though trying to decide whether or not to turn bottom
side up, and then righted herself and dipped almost as far on the starboard side!
Wham! Those tons of living steaks shot-the-shoots across their sialls an I
hit the detaining bars with a deafening crash.
Some of the stalls held, but soms of them didn’t, and when Pete got
to hie feet and looked around him he forgot ail about the storm, for
coming right at him along the narrow passage-way. WAS CERTAIN
DEATH!
Now a staiuiKHle on dry land is about as dangerous a thing as you can Mm)
Nervous, Weak Woman

“I had regular shaking spells from
nervousness.” writes Mrs. Cora San
ders, of Paragould, Ark. “I was all
run-down and cramped at my time
until Itwonld have Jo go to bed. After
,my first bottle of Cardui, I was bet
ter. I kept taking Cardui and soon
I was all right. The shaking quit
and I did not cramp. I felt worlds
better, t five Cardui to my daughter'wlio
waa in about the same condition and she
was soon all right.” \
Thousands of women testify Cardui bene

Consult a physician.

A Stampede at Sea Is Really Something.
and I for one don’t want any part of it, but a »tam|>erie at sea
really something to wYlte home alH>ut.
Pete says It was a ^ight he will never fdrget. The maddened steers—Insane
with terror—came splasliing along the passage-way at amazing speed-tongues
hanging out of their o|M>if mouths and eyes starting out of their beads.
Men and, Cattle Caught in Dfeath-Trap.
One of the leaders fell, t>ut the rest never paused as they trampled him to
death in the foam liencath their pounding hoofs.
Pet* let out a yell and tried to get out of the way, but the foreman
waa in front of him, and the foreman wae a fat man and his elow-mov-
' ing bulk completely filled the passage-way.
Pete says lie felt like a rat In r trap—those few seconds that he stood there
unable to move one way or the oth
The foreman was an old-timer find when he hurdled over a barrier into a
stall he saved not only his own life bU{ Pete’s, because as he jumped he felt the
hot breath of the leading steer on his cheek.
Well, sir, jumping into one of those narrow stalls with a frantic steer for
a cabin mate was like jumping from the Trying pan Into the fire.
Every time the boat rocked the ^eer would go careening danger
ously around—smashing against one Side and then the other—with
Pete doing his best to keep his feeL
One false step on that slippery floor and this story would never
have been told. \
Luckily for Pete and his shipmates not as many of the cattle had escaped
as It seemed.
^Sea Was Singing “Last Round-Up.”
The bellowing procession down the passage-way was only about ten strong,
and when it passed the men all Jumped back out of the stalls and waded after
their charges.
That chase rambled all over the ship, and if you want some excitement, Pete
says, try rounding up cattle on a ship at sea.
Every time the cowboys would eorner^one of the critters, why that
floating pasture would turn on and and man and cattle would slide kick
ing Into the scuppers. Those big waves, Pete says, sure seemed to be
. tinging "The Last Round-Up” for him.
But the storm finally eased up and the cattle were rounded up and led back
to their repaired stalls with no serious casualties to the men.
There were a lot of broken legs, however, among the steers.
The animals were destroyed to end their suffering, and as the good ship
steadied on her path they were burled at sea.
And so, boys iiin glcls, ends the saga.
