FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER, 29, 1939 THE NEWBERRY SUN PAGE THREE PATRICIA DOW MINIMIZE AWKARDNESS There’ll be no hint of “an awkward age” about the looks of a school-girl who wears this well-designed little dress (8474). The flared skirt, the puffed sleeves and the high neck line, finished with a little tailored collar, minimize any tendency to thinness that fast-growing young la dies have to contend with. And that pointed basque waistline has a slim, grown-up look that they will love. Practical for summer daytimes and also to start school on the first Fall days, this dress will be pretty in plaid gingham, plain-colored linen or gay percale prints, with the little collar in crisp, fresh white, set off by a small bow! Pattern 8524—The very newest fa- sbion is here worked out in a design that makes it exciting but not too ex treme, in your favorite two-piece style. The bustle effect, latest craze of Pa ris, is achieved by means of an impu dent bow, drawing in the fitted blouse to even more flattering slimness. The skirt has the very smart back fulness, adding to the Victorian charm that is a definite characteristic of this 1890 revival. A frilled, round collar or a collarless neckline either way is flattering.

Uiejeman also won lh« title in l!';-: Dogs Get “Nose Printed” (Continued from Page Two) of it, but even at that Germany suf fered less from the World War than either England or France. In saying that England and France did not observe the spirit of the trea ty I do not mean that the Germans did; nor can I imagine anything in that treaty that was harsher than the Germans would have imposed if the tables had been turned. President Wilson insisted upon in corporating the League of Nations in to the Treaty because he thought the terms were too severe and he hoped that in a time of greater calm the victorious powers might use the Lea gue as an instrument of adjustment. In violation of that, and in repudia tion of the general spirit of promise, France built up the most powerful ar my in Europe and occupied part of Germany’s territory. Before Hitler’s era that was settled. Hitler disregarded the treaty and took various steps in open violation of it; paid no more indemnity and or ganized a great army and air force. Let it be remembered that no Ger man towns were destroyed during the war, nor was Germany in any way despoiled. France suffered the loss of towns, factories and more than six hundred thousand homes. What is at the bottom of the Ger man movement? Japan and Italy were with the allies during the World War and gained territory through that association. Yet they are today with Germany and moved by the same impulse. What is it? What does each want? Territory so that each may have all the resources to become self-sustaining. Germany annexed Austria which is German. How soon will Hitler ab sorb Hungary, which was united to Austria? He wants Poland, on the theory that a part of Poland belonged to Austria. He wanted Czecho-Slo- vakia and pretended to be the cham pion of the German element there. He probably hopes' to get into Ru mania and reach the Black Sea. So Germany would touch the Baltic and the Black seas and the Atlantic. Per haps on the West she might take Belgium or Holland, or both. Quite an imperial dream more ambitious than that of the Caesars. France and England are not fight ing for Poland, although Poland was re-created a Sovereign State by the Treaty of Versailles under the in spiration of President Wilson. They are fighting for peace, for the peace ful enjoyment of what they have and for the quiet routine of ordinary liv ing. No man could be happy among us if several men banded themselves together and seized whatever they wanted. After a while all of us would be compelled to join forces in order to quell the turbulent menace. That is what Hitler is today—a pre datory spirit preying upon weaker na tions. England and France are fight ing, then, for the peace of the world —selfishly, no doubt, but truly. If I joined my neighbors in tracking down some dangerous character should de cidedly have a selfish interest. But that same interest is the reason for maintaining police departments. What is our part in this War? We have no part—yet. I earnestly advo cate a change in the neutrality law so that any nation may buy what she will here and move it at her own risk. That is not unneutral. Russia can sell to Germany. She may be as will ing to sell to England. If Germany cannot buy from us because she can’t transport her purchases, neither can England transport from Russia. During the world war only ten per cent of our sales to the allies was for munitions; 90 per cent was for such supplies as we may ship today. But we must not deceive ourselves: Germany will be just as ready now to sink ships carrying food and fuel as she will ships carrying powder and cannon. I think we should prepare to take care of ourselves. The surest prepar ation would be to permit the manu- acture and sale of everything to any nation that can buy. Then our in dustries will be prepared for our needs, if we should need them. Let me cite the amazing story of the World War. Although our coun try was a belligerent for nineteen ] months and spent billions of dollars and realy sent two million men to France, not one American cannon was fired by an American soldier in France, except a few naval cannon; and not one American plane was flown except a few observation planes. Shall we get our industries geared to possible requirements in a world j war; or shall we dream about resist-j ing attacks, or defending ourselves j with good intentions and eloquent words? | Russia has invaded Poland. She i says the purpose is to protect the, millions of Russians there. Protect, them from what and from whom ? I Russia was mobilized and her armies were ready. The invasion appears to be a trick agreed upon with Ger- i many. As I see it, England will have to do all her buying in this country and convoy the shipments, leaving most of her navy to hunt down submarines. THE by WE AUGHIftBAUGH MB THIS HAPPENED “In my forty years of practice,” said Dr. W. H. P., “I had what I have, always considered my strang est experience a year after I had hung out my shingle, and although it has been thirty-nine years since it happened, I recall it as vividly as if it had taken place yesterday.” Knowing there was a good story coming, I asked the doctor to tell me what he had in mind. “Well,” began the medico, clear ing his throat and contemplating the cigar which he was smoking, as he turned it over and over in ihis hand, “this took place New Year’s day. “When I was a young physician, it was the custom, as you recall, for medical men to wear beavers and garb themselves in long frock coats, and, of course, I adopted this style of dress, because it identified mem bers of the healing art and to a cer tain extent was w’hat one might term ‘ethical advertising.’ “I received a call, and was asked to hurry to a small stationery store about two blocks away. Gathering my equipment in my little bag, I hastened to my patient. “As I arrived at the door of the store an excited man greeted me and said: ‘He’s in der back room. Be quick—his brain is busted.’ I entered the store and was shown into the room back of it—the living quarters of the family. “To my amazement, on his hands and knees was a giant of a man, but ting his head against the wall, like an excited goat.

Our advice to all farmers in this section is to plant more acres in Beardless Bailey and less acres in corn since Barley can be raised for so much less. Corn is a very expensive crop. You can plant the same acres in Barley and raise twice the number of bushels with less expense and barley is just as good feed. Our yield this year was 2871 bu. on 70 acres! H. O.
