T HE biggest problem facing TV
drama is one the movies never
have to meet—holding an audi
ence . . . Frank Wisbar, producer
and director of “Fireside Theatre,”
says that “unlike movies, we do
not have a ‘captive’ audience, one
which must stay in the theater
seat and watch or fall asleep
TV’s audience is on the loose and
a story must be good or ‘click*
goes the dial . . . My greatest
challenge is the knowledge that
each week ‘Fireside’ has to hold
the interest of families so com
pletely that they will stay with us
for the entire half hour . . No
moUon picture man ever had such
a problem! ”
Mr. Wisbar is certainly correct,
which brings up the question, if he
Is so cognizant of this unhappy
problem, how come Fireside Thea

scripts? The ones in recent weeks
have been pretty hackneyed and
the acting leaves much to be de
sired . . Maybe now that he has
at last recognized the difficulty, he
will try to remedy it.

Bible Comment:
Is Today's Trend
Toward Unification
Of Churches Good?
'T’HE young observer of today
A who sees extensive move
ments toward church union* can
hardly realize how completely a
generation or two ago the trend
was the other way.
'Sectarianism and divisiveness
were not only in the air, but right
on the ground, with hard prac
tical reality.
In one Canadian town then
there were two sorts of Method
ism, each church representing a
different organization. There
were additional sorts of Method
ism throughout the country
There were, likewise, two sorts
of Presbyterianism, and there
may have been others as well.
Wherever some presumably
prophetic soul or ambitious
leader thought he had discovered
a new idea, he proceeded to build
a new, and sometimes a very
narrow and intense, denomina
tion around it.
That rank growth of the sects
was in a sense the disgrace of
Protestantism, but it also had in
it a touch of Protestant glory—
the emphasis on freedom..
Like all great men and'good
things, freedom is capable of
abuse. But freedom is neverthe
less great and good.
Today the trend is all the other
way. Controversy has almost
disappeared. The things that
divided are hardly mentioned.
Yet one Scottish church leader
not long ago spoke of “good con
troversy” as a great need of our
time.
And we might well ask wheth
er with all the undoubted gains
in present trends we are not in
danger of losing some of the
essential values of the times
when Christians laid so much
stress ypon their conscientious
convictions and were averse
toward comnromise.

BOYS ARE
THAT WAY
By J. M. ELEAZER
As the bleak months of winter
wore on, we kids of the Stone
Hills grew more and more rest
less for the wild plenty that usual
ly came from the deep woods.
Spring, summer, and fall saw
these bounties come in abundance,
if you knew where to find them.
And we did. They took the form of
meat for both the soul and the
body, food and flower.
But winter saw hard going for
such things. And there wasn't
much. *
About all we could find at this
season was the catkins (tags, we
called ’em) on the alder bushes
that grew along the spring drains
and branches. And the boys from
across the creek would bring hand
fuls of small branches with long
er catkins on them. We always
thought they were from the chin-
quepin bushes. We didn’t have any
of those in the woodlands we
ranged. And there was much trad
ing for them with those boys.
What we wanted with those cat
kins, I don’t know. But we trea
sured them, and would get our feet
wet in icy water to get them. It
seemed that they always grew in
the most inaccessible places. The
girls liked ’em too. And maybe
that accounted for some of our
zeal for the catkins that grew on
the alder bushes in the damp
spots in the winter time.
I recall, there was a girl who
met my secret fancy. I had been
looking at her a lot, out of the
corners of my eyes. One day she
admired a hunch of catkins I
had picked along the branch
through the pasture as I came to
school. I got up the nerve to give
them to her: And, as I did, I quite

“ HOW DO I MAKE
A LOAN
AT THE BANK?”
Loans at this bank are made directly by our
manager, Mr. Norris, or by our assistant
manager. If you intend to borrow on collateral,
you should bring it with you. Generally, you
can borrow money more cheaply at the bank
than from other sources. If the loan is dis
counted (interest paid in advance), the. rate of
interest may be even lower. There are several
ways to arrange a loan.
YOU CAN BORROW ON REAL ESTATE
If you own your home or other property free and clear you will find you can borrow a consider
able sum here on a long or short term first mortgage at low rates. If your property already car
ries a first mortgage, a second mortgage loan can often be arranged.
YOU CAN BORROW ON LIFE INSURANCE
If you have paid-up life insurance or policies with sizable cash or loan value, you can borrow
money up to the full loan value here at very modest rates. Such loans can be made for either a
short or long period of time.
YOU CAN BORROW ON SECURITIES
If you own government, municipal or corporate bonds or debentures, or certain types of mort
gages, or high grade listed preferred stocks you can use these as collateral against a loan here
at moderate interest rates.
AN UNSECURED LOAN IS POSSIBLE
Sometimes a loan may be made here on no other security than your signature on a note. A bank
will often lend on “character” alone if the purpose of the loan is desirable and the borrower’s
record and prospects are of the best.
