Crush some tablets of genuine Bayer Aspirin in some water, and gargle at once. This gives you instant relief, and reduces danger from infection. One good gargle l and you can feel safe. If all soreness is not gone promptly, 1 repeat. There’s usually a cold with the sore throat, so before gargling take two tablets to throw off your cold, headache, stiffness or other cold symptoms.

CLEMSON COLLEGE, Feb. 6.— South Carolina farmers would do well to return to the old-fashioned practice of raising some mules and horses, says O. M. Clark, extension farm management specialist, who states that unless breeding of work stock picks up materially or the mechanization of agriculture goes much further soon, a shortage of , work stock will be upon us within the next few years. Considered from a long-time point of view, the use of tractors and trucks for farm work will j probably increase in importance, j but for the immediate future there i will probably be some decrease in , their use, Mr. Clark believes. “But even with a continued increase in 1 the mechanization of agriculture, , the outlook for horses and mules is i such that for those who are in posi tion to do so it would probably be desirable economically to make plans for raising some colts. There are many farms in South Carolina , on which colts oould be raised with- ; out great expense,” he continues. | “If the prices of farm products stay low as at present it will be difficult for most farmers to buy j their replacements when their I present work animals are past their period of usefulness, and if the prices of farm products go up horse and mule prices will be high. While horse and mule prices have come down appreciably since 1929, they have declined only about half as much as has the average price of all farm products. If prices of farm products should within the next few years go back to the 1929 'riritef of STER EXECUTIVE* Supplying s week-to>wc«k iaspiratioa for tbe hem Ty-burdened who will fend everyhwn*iitn*lp»raJWedi^thee*per»rnce^^Th^4»«Nobod^lCjiowik^ HIS METHOD Many leaders have dared to lay out ambitious programs, but Lhis is the most daring of all: “Go y® into all the world,’ the whole creation.” ' Jesus said, “and preach the gospel io Consider the sublime audacity of that command. To carry Roman civilization across the then known world had cost millions of lives and billions in treasure. To create any sort of reception for a new idea or product today involves a vast machinery of propaganda and ex pense. Jesus had no funds and no machinery. His organization was a tiny group of uneducated men, one of whom had already abandoned the cause as hopeless, deserting to the enemy. He had come proclaim ing a Kingdom and was to end upon a cross: yet he dared to talk his faith in that handful of followers? By what methods had he trained them? What had they learned from him of the secrets of influencing men?

We speak of the law of “supply and demand,” but‘the words have got turned around. With anything which is not a basic necessity the supply always precedes the demand. Elias Howe invented the sewing machine, but it nearly rusted away before American women could be persuaded to use it. So his biographer paints a tragic picture—the man who had done more than any other in his generation to lighten the labor of women is forced to attend the funeral of the woman he loved in a borrowed suit of clothes! Nor are men less stubborn than women in opposition to the netv idea. The typewriter had been a demonstrated success for years be fore business men could be persuaded to buy it. Almost every invention has had a similar battle. Said Robert Fu 1 - ton of the Clermont: “As I had occasion daily to pass to and from the shipyard whera my boat was in progress, I often loitered near the groups of strangers. The language was uniformly that of scorn, sneer or ridicule. The loud laugh often rose at my expense; and the dull repetition of ‘Fulton’.? Folly’. Never did a single encouraging remark, a bright hope, a warm wish cross my path.” That is the kind of human beings we are—wise in our own con ceit, impervious to suggestions. Nineteen hundred years 'ago we wera even more impenetrable. “To the whole creation.” . . . Assuredly there was no demand for a new religion; the world was already over-supplied. And Jesus pro posed to send forth eleven men and expect them to substitute hU thinking for all existing religious thought! Next Week: A Conception of God Copyright, Bobbs-Merrill Co*
