February 26. M&y these weeks of ) Lent serve to remind us all of the courage with which Jesus Christ our Lord faced the hatred which achieved his physical death, but which also set His matchless spirit free to bless the world. Let us in the coming weeks, and in His name, make our self sacrifices in time, talent and money to extend His kingdom here on the earth. This the challenge of Lent as we go for­ward toward Easter. The Pastor urges special attendance at all our services. Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and material blessings will be added un­to you.

Wearing of Khaki

It is believed that English sol­diers in India started the vogue of wearing khaki uniforms about a century ago when they dipped their white uniforms into muddy pools to give them protective col­oration, says Pathfinder. The name khaki, in fact, comes from the Urdu word, Khak, meaning dust. The practice led to the offi­cial adoption of khaki-colored uni­forms by the British army in the Egyptian campaign of 1882.

DOANS PILLS

By LEMUEL F. PARTON (Consolidated Feature!—WNU Service.*

V E W YORK.-Having enjoyed a -•* ward-room acquaintance of six or eight weeks with Rear Admiral Russell Willson, who recently took

Willson Can Pilot p e r i n t e n d e n t 'Ship' Annapolis of the United Through Any Sea States Naval 1 academy, this

i writer feels that everything will be j shipshape at Annapolis—come what

may. When the then Commander WilJson deployed the destroyer fleet

i around Greenland and Labrador, shepherding home the army world fliers, in 1924, we were stalking

I Capt. Donald Macmillan, the explor-| er, in the sub-Arctic, and found gra-

cipus hospitality on the command­er 's destroyer, Lawrence, at Indian harbor, Labrador.

1 He's an alert disciplinarian, with-t out being in the least stiff-necked ( about it. When we began issuing the

"Labrador Gumdrop," the spright-l iest piece in it was wr i t ten by the

I commander. He is tall, grave, slen-I der, distinguished in appearance, ! deliberate in speech, but quick and

precise in action.

The latter became clear when i a black squall socked the Law­

rence one day, with almost the suddenness of an explosion. With a rock bottom under Indian har­bor, the ship had nothing to get her book into. She started slith­ering and spinning like a Japa­nese dancing mouse. The shore was rocky and the chances for a crack-up looked fairly good. The commander's job was something like chauffeuring a skidding automobile. We aren't sufficiently nautical to tell what happened, but he brought the ship through top-side up. A young lieutenant told me later that it was a brilliant piece of seamanship.

Under a generous naval lease-lend plan, we borrowed the commander's fishing tackle and shotguns, to shoot

j puffins. We won the war and re­turned the armament. He, as one would have known, moved smoothly on up through grades to the post of rear admiral.

He was born in Sardinia, N. ¥., in 1883, put in two years at the Massachusetts Institute of Tech­nology and transferred to An­napolis. In the World war, he commanded the sixth battle squadron of the grand fleet. He holds the Navy cross, the Vic­tory medal and the Vera Cruz medal. Unfortunately, there is no file of the "Labrador Gum-drop," but I remember that the last issue was a heartfelt tribute to Commander Willson.

JACK BENNY, radio and screen ^ comedian, may be rusty on his \ calculus and Albert Einstein not so quick on the gags, but here they are D l i . t / - L in step on the Ribbing by Cobs Honor Roll of Effects Gagging Race Rela- j By Jack Benny t i o n s f o r 1 S 4 ° .

7 cited in Ne-! gro History week for their service to race relations, "in terms of real democracy." Mr. Benny is named for his tact and understanding in the use of his Negro fellow-comedi­an, "Rochester."

Born in Waukegan, 111., the son of a small merchant, he was a theater doorman, property man and then a vaudeville vio­linist for years before he ever said a word on the stage. In the navy, playing classical mu­sic for sailors, he was ribbed and ragged by them, impulsive­ly talked backhand uncorked his talent for gagging.

He married Sadie Marks, the Mary Livingston of his radio pro­gram. His new picture, "Love Thy Neighbor," in which he is co-starred with Fred Allen, is right on his tar­get. His friends remark his gen­tility, pressed for further explana­tion one of them said, "He seems to have an instinctive regard for other people's feelings."

Be was born Benny Kubesky, his recreations are bridge and casino, and he la rarely geen without a cigar. He meets re­porters thoughtfully and never does any exhibition gagging for them—no matter bow they prod him.

Many kings have toppled since then, but the durable three are still here, and the other night at the Metropolitan, Miss Moore made good on her prophecy and Signor Montemezzi made his debut at the Metropolitan, conducting his opera "The Love of Three Kings." He was born in Italy in 1875, and studied mu­sic under famous masters in Rome.

Farm Product Research Brightens Rural Picture

Government Chemurgic Laboratories Seek New Outlets for Raw Materials

Of U. S. Agriculture.

By BAUKHAGE National Farm and Home Hour Commentator.

WNU Service, 1395 National Press [ Bldg., Washington, D. C.

From four strategic points in the ; United States members of the de-] partment of agriculture are looking | into the future and slowly and care-I fully planning the way toward new | uses of the product of field and

farm. They are the men directing the work in the new laboratories of

j the bureau of chemistry and engi­neering.

j The layman who takes a quick look over the shoulders of these men may get a little dizzy. As I sat in

j the office of one of them taking ! notes with a pencil he had just

handed me, labeled "U. S. Dept. Agr. Soybean-Phenolic Plastic" I had difficulty keeping down to earth. I saw the cornfields of my native state suddenly producing the fuel of tomorrow, I saw husks and cobs

i running farm and factory machin­ery and automobiles, and cornstalks turning into paper. Plants and

'. vegetables from the farms of the nation became all sorts of gadgets from airplane parts to ash trays, a gallon of milk turned into a lady's dress, a pumpkin into a limousine.

At this point I was taken by the ' hand and led gently back to earth.

I was reminded that "chemurgy," which is what the modern Ala.ddins call their art, is still in the list of "new words" in the dictionary. I looked it up. Chemurgy, I found, means "that branch of applied

I chemistry devoted to industrial uti­lization of raw materials, especially farm products, as use of soybean oil in paints and varnishes, and of southern pine for paper pulp."

Attack Surplus Problem, That definition by no means gives

the true picture of what the four laboratories of the department of agriculture are doing. In the first place it is necessary to point out that the government chemists are confining their research efforts to farm surpluses and to what is now waste. They are bending their ef­forts to discover new uses for farm products rather than trying to de­velop products to compete with present markets. The objective, re­duced to purely material terms, is more cash for what the farmer raises.

The decision of the congress of ihe United States in 1938 to vote $4,000,000 for these four laboratories to carry on this research was not a sudden Ihing. It was the gradual realization that in this changing world, new conditions have proved that making two blades of grass grow where only one grew before, will not solve the farm problem. International trade restrictions, wars and rumors of wars, revolu­tions both economic and political, have conspired to create great sur­pluses of farm products. The job today is to find new markets for those products. It is a long-range job.

Dr. Henry Knight, chief of the bu­reau of agricultural chemistry and engineering, describes the function of his new organization as a combi­nation of three kinds of research. One is finding new facts about the substances he is dealing with. That is the kind of thing that goes on in the laboratory of the professor of physics. Another is improving and controlling the quality of a product and lowering the cost of its manu­facture. That is the kind of re­search a manufacturing concern carries on.

Then there is the third type of ex­perimentation which an industry de­veloping new products follows, the attempt to discover and develop methods for processing or combin­ing various raw materials to pro­duce useful products.

Wider Markets Sought. "These are the three basic types

of research," says Dr. Knight, "which will be employed in the four regional laboratories to find new and wider markets for the farm com­modities assigned to them."

These four laboratories are locat­ed in four areas in which four dif­ferent types of farm products dom­inate.

In the western laboratory in Al­bany on San Francisco bay, fruits and vegetables and alfalfa are the chief concern. The eastern labora­tory is in Philadelphia. Here to­bacco and milk products are stud­ied. The northern laboratory is at Peoria, 111., where corn and wheat are the chief commodities dealt

C The department of commerce, which for some eight years has been feeling a little peaked, is picking up considerably. Friends of six-foot, white-haired Jesse Jones, who suc­ceeded Harry Hopkins as secretary, give the tall Texan the credit for the department's new lease on life.

with. In the South, at New Orleans, cotton and peanuts are the main in­terest.

Perhaps the best way to sum up what is being done right now is to quote the men in charge of the dif­ferent laboratories:

"Cotton overcoats for sheep," was the first thing mentioned by D. F. M. Lynch, director of the southern laboratory.

"We're co-operating with the ag­ricultural experiment station of the University of Wyoming." Said Mr. Lynch, "Sheepmen in that state put some of these cotton coverings on sheep last'year— and found that the wool grew better—.and it was much cleaner at shearing time. This year —we sent them 500 coats. They're being put on the sheep just about now—to be left on until warm weather. If coats were put on all our sheep it would result in a,3mar-ket for 100,000 bales of cotton a year."

Pacific Lab Objectives. Mr. T. L. Swenson from the Pa­

cific coast says: "We're to study alfalfa, apples and other fruits, po­tatoes, poultry and poultry products, vegetables and wheat."

And he is co-operating with the frozen-pack laboratory, located irif Seattle. "One thing we did recent­ly, Mr. Swenson told us, "was to prepare an entire dinner of frozen-pack foods — including chicken stuffed with frozen dressing."

In the Philadelphia laboratory, Dr. P. A. Wells is in charge: "One of the things we are working on is apples," he reports, "better ways of making apple juice for the mar­ket."

And tobacco—new nicotine com­pounds to kill insects and prevent plant diseases, Milk is another study in the East—making better casein products. Casein is used now chief­ly in paper sizing. Lard is being studied, too, and like soybeans and other products, it is valuable in making plastics.

In the Peoria laboratory, corn, corn-stalks, corn cobs, are the chief interest. Their cellulose content is being studied. They have real pos­sibilities for making synthetic rub­ber for example, says Director O. E. May. And motor fuel, too:

"That 's one of the big jobs we're going to tackle. One of the impor­tant aspects of this problem is mak­ing alcohol or other fermentation products from corn or wheat, and using the alcohol as a motor fue l -perhaps alcohol alone, or perhaps , blended with gasoline. We're set­ting up a pilot plant—that is, a regu- ] lar alcohol-making plant on a small scale—so we can study methods of making alcohol and try to improve them and cut down the cost.

Washington'* Foresight A Boon to Nation's Capital

This year, as usual, at the season of his birthday, George Washington was lauded throughout the land for his many gifts to the nation. Few realize the role he played in creat­ing the capital city which is named after him.

It seems today as if he actually • possessed the ability to see into the future when he accepted the city plan of Pierre Charles L'Enfant, the young Frenchman who had followed Lafayette to this country and dis­tinguished himself as an engineer in the Revolution. For to most of the people of that day L'Enfant's scheme was a madman's dream. The Frenchman was eccentric and he paid for his eccentricity with a death in poverty although his plan lived. Thirty-two years ago he was reburied with honor in the Arlington National cemetery. '

When the landowners of the acres that were to comprise the capital ' heard about streets of 100 to 110 , feet wide and an avenue 400 feet wide and a mile long, they said L'Enfant was crazy to waste this land that might be sold as building lots.

Today many Washingtonians vain­ly protest when streets with a line of trees on both sides of the side­walks are widened between curbs to allow for the congested automo­bile traffic. But if it had not been for L'Enfant's planning of wide streets and the active support which he received from President Wash­ington, this widening of the pave­ment today would have been impos­sible. Now, at least, one line of trees can be preserved.

X-J ALF the fan of hooking rugs is *• -* in making your own designs. All you have to do is to, mark the pattern on burlap with a wax crayon and then go over it with a warm iron to set it. Simple flow­ers are easy to draw and in the olden days real leaves were used for patterns. Scroll designs com­bined with flowers are popular now for use with Eighteenth cen­tury furniture. The scrolls of the handsome rug shown here were hooked in gold color outlined in

brown. The edge medium blue; the center darker blue and the flowers in tones of red and deep rose with leaves in two tones of green.

This diagram shows you how to make a scroll pattern that you may use in different ways. Just rule a piece of paper in one-inch squares and then follow the dia­gram outlining the scroll so that its lines cross the squares exactly as they do here. Now, cut the scroll out and trace around it on the burlap repeating it at each comer; then fill in the flowers

Some amount of electricity-

TWICE AS MUCH LIGHT!

For the same amount of electricity, you can

get TWICE THE ILLUMINATION by using

new fluorescent tube lights in your factory,

store or office. But a word of caution is

advisable:

Fluorescent lighting is so new and there are

so many fixtures on the market, sa many

claims being made, that it is hard for the inex­

perienced buyer to know what to buy. At

present fluorescent fixtures are more expen­

sive than other types, and special auxiliary

equipment is needed to operate them, so that

getting your money's worth is especially

important.

Our experienced lighting staff will be glad

to give you full information about this revo­

lutionary new lighting. Call any Detroit

Edison office. There is no charge or obli­

gation. The Detroit Edison Company does

not sell fluorescent lamps or fixtures. See

your electrical contractor or lighting fixture

dealer. The Detroit Edison Company.

Designers Use Chinese Styles In Spring Jackets, Capes, Hats

By CHERIE NICHOLAS

C P R I N G 1941 promises a program ^ of exciting new fashions. In answer to the challenge flung to American designers to carry on the style traditions of the world, there has been projected into the field of costume design a to-do and to-dare spirit that makes for refreshingly new ideas in clothes this season. Be­cause of the encouragement given to originality and play of imagina­tion there is that "something dif­ferent" about current styling which fashion-minded women welcome and covet.

One of the most vital movements is the change taking place in the sil­houette, especially in regard to suits. The new formula calls for longer jackets, straighter skirts and modified shoulders, and in these points is sounded the death knell for the carried-over suit you had hoped would be good this season.

As to shoulders, they certainly are under lively discussion. So impor­tant has the shoulder theme become that one is almost justified in coin­ing a slogan declaring that a dress, suit or coat this season is only as chie as its shoulderline. Instead of exaggerated padding as heretofore the tendency in the newer versions is toward gently sloping and subtly rounded lines of grace.

There are breathtaking innova­tions, too, that are adding zest to the mode, not the least of which is the Chinese influence that is seen in col­ors, in millinery (coolie hats are the

latest), and in jackets and capes. Success for the new Chinese

movement was mentioned at "Fash­ion Futures," that brilliant event at which authoritative style forecasts were dramatically presented in a spring prevue. Beauty and suavity of lines and simplicity in Chinese technique were pointed out in sev­eral fetching evening wraps and daytime suits. Two of the latter are pictured in the illustration here­with.

The jacket to the left credits green as a leading color for spring. The Chinese influence is apparent in its neat, trim lines and the gentle, natural shoulder slope. An all-round pleated black skirt completes this twosome. That the fashion group sponsors green is again evi­denced in the jacket to the right, which also is Chinese-inspired. Note the styling in the black skirt.

And now for a most breathtaking thrill—capes I Watch capes go on parade this season along the high­ways and byways of fashion. There will be more capes than you can count, and doubtless you will be wearing a cape yourself for design­ers are turning them out in endless types, and in every length from short to long.

Much attention will be given to cape linings. A demure monotone cape is lined the South American way in purples, Peruvian pinks, blues, reds and yellows nicely as­sembled. The cape costume cen­tered in the group pictured with its matching turban is typically a new vogue. It's smart in any color but particularly so in oatmeal tweed with dashes of brown or gay tan­gerine.

(Released by Western Newspaper Union.)

Easy to Make Prints Accompany Plain Materials

There is sort of a gypsy charm and fascination about the new dresses, be they cotton, silk, linen or rayon. The skirt has just enough fullness, introduced in subtle ways, to give it the casual look. For the blouse top, the material is in mono­tone. Quite smart is the black or navy jersey top.

For evening, lovely gowns are made of printed silk done in re­splendent colors. A fitted bodice may surmount a skirt of billowy white mousseline on which is ap-pliqued at strategic points flower clusters cut from the same print that fashions the waist.

He was of a thrifty turn of mind, having originally come from Scotland. One day he was told by a friend that instead of putting a quarter into the meter, much the same effect could be obtained by blowing smartly into the slot. That night he tried the experiment with most gratifying results.

| This went on for some time, and j finally an inspector from the gas j company called to examine the i meter. He was obviously puzzled

the pelf.—Juvenal.

Take a tip from smart dressmak­ers and use polka dot drama when you make accessories for your spring costumes. Sewing is really fun with modern sewing machine equipment and'almost every locality has a sew­ing center where you can learn to make these smart accessories in an afternoon. For this turban and bag you will need three-quarters of a yard of 36-inch polka dot cotton pique, or print silk, if you prefer. An additional half-yard of 39-inch rayon taffeta for the bag lining and a half yard of buckram for bag re­inforcement. By attaching the hem-stitcher gadget to your machine you can finish off all edges to look pro­fessional.

Coats Take On Dressmaker Touch

Dressy coats show much dress­maker detail. Wool weaves used are light weight and yield beauti­fully to fabric and surface treat­ments. AUover braiding on the blouse top, done in self-color, en­hances many a pastel coat. The ! new oatmeal shades, beige and brown, violet (very smart this sea- , son) pastel blue and muted pink are fashioned in this way. Tucking is ! another fabric treatment, likewise quilting which sometimes is done in an allover pattern in sprawling leaf and tendril design.

Flowery Prints Very attractive for young girls are

the new two-piece dresses that top a skirt of gay flowery print. Go as far as you like in way of a vivid print—the more gypsy-like the bet­ter. Either the full peasant type skirt or the all-around pleated are up-to-date in style.

Handsome Plaids Come Into Picture

Coats, dresses, capes, jacket suits are being made of handsome plaids. Made up in the new coolie jackets, plaids top a monotone colored skirt.

Capes of plaid bring drama into the spring style parade. These capes are long, and the style touch is achieved in epaulet effects formed of fringe.

While consumer benefits technic-:•!'>• wouM reduc e taxes on 16 price iovel, below 33 cent? and increase t.ixes only on eight, critics maintain that the practical outcome would be for the average customer to ignore th • multiple card system, pay a high­er tax on small items or patronize hvge business firms which would offer to absorb a cash tax on small ,tnr,s ra ther tthan annoy customers--:i competitive practice that would not help the little retailer, the for-ev.tror man whom th e plan is in­tended to benefit.

FEBRUARY 22nd February 22nd will be celebrated

as the birthday of George Washing­ton. We may do well to remembar that Washington was one of the MI :ding lights through the war of Independence, the years dur ing the drafting and adoption of the Con­stitution, and as our first President.

In 1776 the Continental Congress declared the thir teen colonies to be a free and independent nation.A war of seven years duration was fought t > gain th e actuality of that free-^"IU and independence

Only singleness of purpose, self-sacrifice and an undying loyalty to a c;"se made possible the United State* of America. George Washing­ton was the characterisation of those attributes.

We, the people of the United :tiiies have successfully governored ourselves for 152 years. We have maintained the t rus t established by

gton and those associated im. We must continue to

lna ntain it. We have faith in Amar-ica, in an American government by the peonle,, for the people and of the people .
