I THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY. S. C. DRIVER CAN TRANSFORM HIS FLIVVER . . . Newest Models Have Built-in Parking Space . . . INTO AN APARTMENT AUTOMAGICALLY By H. I. PHILLIPS USEFUL AUTOS T HE latest trend In auto design is toward a pleasure car that can be transformed, presto, into something else. By little more than button pressing one model is con verted into a truck or station wagon. Similarly, another model has a trunk compartment that can Ibe made into something of a bou doir. We look for extensions of the trend, bringing perhaps, the combination sedan, deep-freeze unit and rumpus room. 0 m m Elmer Twitchell, the emi nent engineer, is at work on a design for fllwing that will give the summer auto tourist a car to be known as the ca bana special. Ton can drive it God Spoke to Me Today | / OD spoke to me today. Through the gray mist above the hills / Before the day was quite awake; Through the pink splendor of the east. The lilac lights across the lake, tje spoke, a voice within the wind: The little gentle winds that blow, A bed of tulips in the sun. Each deepest golden heart aglow. Were God’s own messengers to me— I love him so! I love him so! God spoke to me today — His voice ? Nay, I could not mistake. I hear him speaking clear tonight As the day dies and in the west The crimson sun sinks from my sight. Uncomraded awhile I mark Now far, now near the darkness grow, And lo, he speaketh, "Child of mine, When days and nights all passing go, Still will I hold thee, still will keep— 1 love thee so, I love thee so!” GRACE NOLL CROWELL onto the beach anywhere, throw a switch and change It into a beach cabana with cock tail bar. • • • Mr. Twitchell has other utilitar ian models in mind for Detroit in cluding the following: 1. Fisherman’s special. Here the back-seat area can be converted into a huge aquarium for live bait, with a fish well for the day’s catch. The car itself is aquatic and by a few wrist motions can be con verted into a motor or sailboat. As an extra there is a sun lamp under which the fisherman can loll and lie to one another in comfort. • • • 2. The Loaf-a-Mobile. Here, by a remarkable use of engineering skills, an extension can be whisked from the back end of the car which becomes, as if by sheer magic, a patio with flowered walls and bird- bath. A palm tree can be had in the deluxe model. Through this model the problem of having an auto, a beach home and a small yard is solved. • • • 3. The Kitcheny-Eight. Lives there an autoist who has never longed to whip up a meal en route? In this model Mr. Twitchell gives the world a roomy limousine in which the touch of a button transforms the rear of the car into a com plete kitchenette with icebox, stove, pantry shelves, cabinets, etc. A compartment for live birds is included in case the owner wants a fresh chicken dinner. • • • 4. The 12-cylinder What-Fun. By a few manipulations, taking less than 10 seconds, this model, seem ingly an ordinary touring car, is converted into a police car with all the traditional symbols and sirens. The mechancial devices which accomplish this change also slap a police hat onto the driver. There is no model as satifactory as this to operators in a hurry. • • • The Accordion-Kar. Here Mr. Twitchell has something which will be the answer to every autoist’s prayer. It is a model which folds up when the driver wishes to park it. All hands alight, a button is touched and the car contracts in the man ner of an accordion until it takes up little more room than an umbrella. The car can then be left in hotel lobbies, home hallways, or even phone booths. • • • (Note—Order this last one early. It is going to be hard to get.) • • • Race-Chart Stuff: Right Jab . . .

The Fiction * WAP PI : D IflP + By Ll\ JVL * Rkhord H. Wilkinson Corner BY INEZ GERHABD L ARRY PARKS, who just finished “Jolson Sings Again” at Colum bia, shares a fondness for old songs with his wife, Betty Garrett. They have one of the largest col lections of player piano rolls In America, also a foot-operated pi anola. So a party at the Parks’ means that everybody makes a beeline for the rumpus room; with LARRY PARKS elder and pretzels for refreshment, and Larry pumping the pedals, they lift their voices in old favo rites like “Sheik of Araby," "Whis pering” and "Moonlight Bay.” In cidentally, "Jolson Sings Again” is geported to be even better than the film that made Parks famous. Radio’s Galen Drake has finally given in to the demands of his listening audience; for the first time in his career, he has given a magazine permission to use his picture, (full color, at that!) with an exclusive story. His multitude of fans will be happy to learn that "This Is Galen Drake” will ap pear in the September issue of Radio Mirror Magazine. For the first time in his life )anny Kaye is thinking of taking i nice, long rest. In “The Inspec- or General,” at Warners’, he vrestled with professionals, had everal sword fights and performed issorted acrobatics. Columnists are always reporting Lat Howard (“Sam Spade”) Duff engaged to somebody. The eirdest "engagement” was to a age actresa Eloioe Jansen—Duff dn’t know ►er, finally found the >lumnist had invented her. Betty Hutton was just recover- ; from one injury — she broke finger while rehersing a dance litine with Fred Astaire for “Let’s ince” — when she broke a toe tile playing on the beach at Mali- with her daughters. T HE BLIZZARD, first of the sea son, was roaring fitfully when Trapper Joe climbed over the river bank and approached his cabin. Midway across the intervening clearing he stumbled over some thing and almost felL The some thing, he discovered, was a man, almost buried by snow, uncon scious. Trapper Joe rolled the stiff form over and saw a huge pack strapped to the man’s back. He grunted, picked up pa.ck and man, and carried both into his cabin. Trapper Joe examined the pack and found that it con tained five pouches, each filled to capacity with gold dust. There must, he reflected, be thousands of dollars worth. P RESENTLY the blanket-swathed figure stirred. Trapper Joe stared down at it solemnly. The unconscious man's eyelids flut tered, then opened. "Take it easy, pardner,” said Trapper J o e. "You’re coming around.” The man stared at Trapper Joe, then sat bolt upright "Where am I?” he demanded. your cabin, but ” “What happened? I remember set ting out for the Post It began to snow. I kept falling. Then I saw “But you didn’t have the strength to make it. I found you almost dead. I lugged you back here and nursed life back into your body. You’re safe, and so’s your gold.” "Sure. Some of it spilled out. You must have made a rich strike." “I did. A pocket. I stayed too late in order to get it all out. My name’s Tim McLeary.” He eyed Trapper Joe curiously. “Kinda queer having this happen; waking up and finding myself alive and— up and finding myself alive and—” Trapper Joe nodded. "You’re wondering why I didn’t leave you there to die and appropriate the dust, eh? Well, I considered it Then thought of what a chance I’d be taking. I thinks: When he wakes up he’ll see I saved his life wakes up he'll see I saved his life. McLeary brushed a hand across his face. His lips tightened. “I get it. You were scared to snitch t*le stuff. You figured I’d give you half of it on account of you saved my life. “Yon’re a cool one all right.” McLeary twisted his thin lips Into a grin. "Mebbe it was good figurin’ at that. Mind if I take a sleep? I feel sorta weak.” "Drink some more soup first. Warm you up inside.” O UTSIDE the storm beat and tore at the tiny cabin. Pres ently Trapper Joe slept. Time passed. The storm diminished in volume, died. The figure near the fire stirred, sat up, listened to Trapper Joe’s deep breathing and reached for a stick of firewood. Trapper Joe returned to con sciousness to find himself bound in his bunk. He struggled at his bonds. After an intermittently long time he freed himself, chafed his wrists, flexed his muscles. Then he built up the fire. There was a note above the manteL “Sorry, old timer, I’ve been dreaming of a strike like this for years. Pm young and can en joy the money. There’s not enough for two. I’ve tied you lightly and left enough supplies to see you through the winter. Thanks for the lift.” Trapper Joe folded the note and put it in his shirt pocket. "Time to celebrate,” he said aloud. “ ’Sides, I’U be wantin' to travel light so’s I can reach the Indian village in three days’ time.” Before sitting down to his feast he lifted a loose board behind the chimney and hoisted up a gallon can. He opened the can and his eyes lighted at sight of the yellow gleaming particles of dust there. He chuckled and replaced the can. “Well,” he soliloquized, “the kid had a chance to play fair, and didn’t take it. If he’d been willin’ to split I’d have come half way. It’ll take him a week to reach the post. By that time I’ll be safe and sound. CPU/ nn 011771C 1x51 wkks t jjW rill r U/lLl answ « m Ancient Beans ACROSS 1. Dull S. Braid ornament on dress 9.

PUZZLE NO. 13 Milk Products Add To Turkey Profits More Eggs Result 01 Judicious Use Increased egg production of nearly 25 per cent and an increased profit of $2.57 per hen, as a result of adding milk products to the ra tions of breeding turkeys, is indi cated in results of a feeding demon stration reported by the Kraft foods company. Two similar flocks of broad breasted bronze turkeys on the Lester Woodhams’ ranch at Sonora, Calif., were placed on test at the beginning of the season. Both flocks were fed a ration consisting of commercial breeder mash in pellet form, some oats and a little corn. One flock had 130 hens and the other 204. Breeding and man agement of the two flocks was identical. A* pelletized milk pro duct was added to the ration of the smaller flock. These turkeys show what ex cellent results can be obtained by turkey raisers with use of proper feed and control of flocks. Careful records of egg produc tion and feed consumption were maintained from the start of egg production, February 21, to May 26 when the birds were marketed because of the lateness of the hatch ing season. Both flocks were pro ducing at better than 40 per cent when marketed. During the 94-day laying period the 130 hens in the flock receiving the pelletized milk product laid a total of 6,257 eggs, an average of 48.1 eggs each. In the same period the 204 hens in the control flock laid 7,811 eggs, or an average of 38.3 each. This meant that the test flock produced better than 25 per cent more eggs. Rate of production was 51.2 per cent for the test flock compared to 40 per cent for the conrol flock. Eggs from the test flock graded 91.6 per cent saleable for hatching against 89.3 per cent for the control flock. With hatching eggs at 32 cents each, this meant that each hen receiving the pelletized milk product produced an average of $14.11 worth of hatching eggs, or $3.17 more than the average for the control flock, which was $10.94. Indian beans from varieties reportedly many thousands of years old are being tested by Cornell plant growers for quali ties that may help growers get better crops. The beans came from the Allegany reservation and the samples are shown here by T. L. York, assistant in plant breeding at Cornell. Superphosphate Assists Effectiveness of Manure One load of manure can be made to do the work of two in topdressing fields, if superphosphate is added before manure is spread, says Prof. C. J. Chapman, of the Uni versity of Wisconsin. He suggests putting 25 to 30 pounds of super phosphate in the spreader as the manure goes out onto the field, or scattering superphosphate in barn gutters at the rate of a pound per cow per day. BlBfc. ItBNETH i. FflUEIUH < SCRIPTURE: Psalms 19:7-14; 105; 119. DEVOTIONAL READING: Proverbs 2:1-9. God's Map for Me Lesson for August 28, 1949 Dr. Foreman H OW did the writers of the Bible think about the Bible? We can get part of the answer by looking at our Psalms for this week. These poets already possessed a part of our Bible: the Law, some historical books, perhaps some of the Proph ets. It was an incomplete Bible they had—but they loved it. They did not think of it or use it in some of the mistaken ways you may find some people thinking of the Bible today. They did not think it was enough to read a line or two before going to bed every night. They did not think that having a copy of it around would bring good luck, or scare off demons. They said nothing about the Bible’s being great literature. They were not at all bothered by miracle stories in Scripture; they believed them, and took them as evidences of the mighty power of God (see Psalm 105). They did not look on the Bible as chiefly a dictionary of Don’ts. They did not think of it as a Sab bath book, but rather as an every day one. It did not strike them as a book of mystery. mmm The Psalmists’ Bible I N reading Psalm 19:7-14, it is in teresting to see how many differ ent things the Psalmist says about the Word of God. He calls it by various names, but that is only be cause, being a poet, he likes to use several words for the same thing. As for Psalm 105, where else but in his Bible would the poet have learned that story of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph and the de liverance from Egypt? The reader of this Psalm will observe that the subject of most of the sentences is GOD. As the poet reviews his people’s histqyy, he shows that it is not simply the doings of the Israel ites, but it is God who brings things to pass. “Man proposes but God disposes” is a proverb which the writer of Psalm 105 would approve. Psalm 119 is known as an “alphabetic” or “acrostic” poem. It is divided into 22 sections, each one exactly eight verses long. There are 22 letters in the Hebrew alphabet, and in the Hebrew original of this Psalm each verse of the first section begins with the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, Aleph; in the next sec tion, Beth, and so on down to the last letter. Tau. • • • The Book of God W HAT the writers of these Psalms said about the partly-done Bible of their times is of course even more true of the completed Bible which is our heritage as Christians. One thing they make clear is that this is first of aU God’s book. They knew as well as we do that different human minds had a part of it, but for aU that it is always God whose message comes through what they wrote. The Bible, properly understood, reveals the mind of God and the will of God. The Bible reveals also the doings of God. His story is the weaving of God’s eternal decrees on the looms of time. Again, these poets see that the Bible is for man and about man. None of them thought of it as s guide to heaven, but rather as a road map or to guide us through the mazes of this world. Psalm 119 stresses this world, and no other, as the world on which God’s light shines. The commandments of God are so many lengths of barbed wire to fence us in, rather road-signs to guide us on life’s open highway. The Bible presents the “How” of living. It is God’s map for me. • • • The Bible in The Heart T HE SENTENCE: "Thy word have I hid in my heart" (Psalm 119:11) is the clue to the right use of the Bible. When a Hebrew writer says “heart” he means something more than mere emotion. The word means char acter, what a man really is. A young Korean was learning the Sermon on the Mount, but making slow work of it. When a missionary asked him about it, the boy said, “I have to be slow. First I learn a verse, then I go out and live it. I can learn the words in a few minutes; but it takes longer than that to live it.” That is the right idea. One verse, translated into living, is worth more than a chapter that never gets deeper in than the edge of the brain.
