The government is making plans for a nation-wide scrap drive this summer as steel mills are again in need of scrap metal to keep up production of war machines.

Five of the six cadets of the U.S. NaVal Flight Preparatory School here who were in an auto accident at Hazel last Saturday night are recovering at local hospitals, ac-cording to latest reports, although two ara still in a rather serious condition.

The quota set for the banks to buy was $156,000. Actually the banks in the county bought $275,000 worth. Thus, the amount bought by the banks plus the amount" bought by others totaled $500,125. • This was a part of the nation-wide drive from April 12 to 30 for 13 billion dollars, not including what the .banks would buy. Re-ports indicate that this national quota was over-subscribed , by about three billion dollars. \

Mayor George Hart was chair-man of the Calloway county drive, and much credit goes to him for this county's going over the top as he personally went out and urged the people—to bay.

The drive here was publicized exclusively" by The Ledger St Times. No other newspaper pub-lished * in this county -made any mention of the gigantic drive. Thirty-three business houses in Munray cooperatively sponsored large advertisements in the Led-ger & Times. These advertise-ments were prepared by the U. S. Treasury Department, and were sent to this newspaper with the request that sponsors "be secured for their publication, v

Legion Commander Urges Ex-Service Men Keep Faith With Men in Uniform

By C. B. FORD. Commander,

American Legion Poet No. 73 In 1620 a handful of people

landed at Plymouth Rock, faced with a great wilderness inhabited by hostile Indians. Truly a strange land to conquer so'they might live as free men. Through the hard years and lean years they built for this ideal.

Three hundred and twenty-three years of struggling and sacrifice, but always onward they moved. They were your father and his father and his father's father. They and their women companions were strong in the faith of a free coun-try; they paid In "blood for the

day. Yes, we have built thousands of

square miles of free country, through sacrifice of blood and lives of those we've held dear, and today we are facing a greater challenge than ever before.

Threatened with slavery apd destruction, 130 million people must again join hands, and there mtjst run through our minds the old cry " Onward evar onward."

We who are here must' united our efforts at home; it is our

task tc* keep the home front secure; must join hands, work and

sacrifice for the freedom of the L-ountry we love and the way of life that we have always known. It is our job, here at home to fur-nish fighting men wllH the proper materials and equipment to fight with; and it is indeed unfortunate that with already a serious short-age ip man power, we have, to suffer the loss of millions of man hours, in our defense plants due to a few labor racketeers. Yes, we must work hard and fast to make" up for those lost hours, that a few Benedict Arnolds have rob-bed us dt.

Today there are about 150.000 Legionnaires in service in World Ward II, and there are millions of boys who are sons of Legionnaires in service. How about it ex-ser-vice-men fii Worldr-War I i -J - e tV not break faith with piose who sleep in Flanders Field. Let us who are here at home fall in line, do "our own part whatever it may be.

We can at least support the American Legion hy" paying our dUes. and thereby help the organi-zation in its efforts ta back up our government in this time of national emergency.

GOLDEN TTXT—Now when they aaw the boldneea of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jeius.—Acta 4:13.

Does the Church have • m e n a g e for our day? Sometime* one won-der« a bit. but a little thought indi-cate* that it lt does not, lt la not becauaa Christianity has (ailed, but because Christian people have tailed to declare the eternal and powerful truth ot God. The primary respon-sibility for any such failure must rest upon the leaders of the Church.

It Is Instructive to see the qualities which made the Jeaders of the early Church effective for the Lord. In our lesson we find Peter and John doing three things.

In Memory of Daddy One year has passed since that

awful day, when our Dear Daddy went away to live in that happy home on high, where there will be no sad good-bye.

We wouldn't call you back, to this world of war and fear, for you have had your share of sor-row, pain and tears.

Tho the ways seems dark, and the days seem long, we'll just keep on praying and sfnging a song.

Yes, sing a song, as you would want Daddy Dear, it is then i t seems we have you near.

Five Murray ministers are co -operating to provide chaplain ser-vice for the Pre-Flight Cadets at Murray College. They do not con-duct regular Sunday worship ser-vices (the Cadets go to the city churches Sunday morning to at-tend ), but have regular times set aside to visit the cadets.

The schedule is as follows: Rev. S. C. McKee. Mondays; Bev S. P Martin, Tuesdays; Bro. J. F. Ful-ford, Wednesdays; Rev. C. C. Thompson, Thursdays; and Rev. T. H Mullins, Jr.. Fridays. Each has from 6:30 to 7:30 in the evtn-ing to meet with the Cadets, and usually the conference room at the Barracks-is given to them for their use at that time.

power conviction ot-sin. It always does, although the outward Indication of its working may not be as marked as it was on that day. Three thou-sand souls were under conviction and asking what to do to be saved.

What an opportunity for the preacher and his fellow worker, John. How did they meet it? By faithfully declaring the need of re-pentance and faith, and then of fel-lowship with others in the Church.

One mark of a real leader for God will always be that he preaches and teaches the message of God without adulteration, without modification, and with plainness and simplicity.

The kind of leadership which is often magnified in the Church today and which--is largely n>ade up of personal magnetism, "pep" and fast talk, i i not real leadership at alL Test your leaders by their faithful and intelligent declaration of God 's Word. ' . .,,..? v

n . Conveying God's Power (Acts 1:1-8).

•Channels, only"—that is the func-tion of the worker for Christ, the leader in His Church. As Mary Maxwell well put it:

Channels only, blessed Master, ^ But with all Thy wondrous power Flowing through us. Thou canst use us Every day and every hour.

Silver and gold was a scarce com-modity with Petpiv and John, as it has T>een with many, yes most, of God's servants through the centu-ries. But they did have the blessed privilege of being channels through which the healing, cleansing, re-deeming power of God could flow— and that was infinitely better.

The lame man had long since given up hope of anything better than the few coins he could beg at the temple* gate. He was like many in our hard and practical age who see only the values that money can give, and thus miss the real blessing of God.

God has for men today, as He had for this beggar, that which is far better than gold—deliverance, from sin and liberation from the limita-tions of spirit which make them con-tent with the -paltry alms of men.

Peter and John were ready to be used of God because they were men who were not too busy to pray (v. 1). Knowing the compassion of God they sought out the ope in need, aad by faith put the unlimited power of God to work on his behalf.

God healed this man's body, but what is more Important, He healed his spirit Cv. b . We nee£ that kind of healing for the weak-kneed, lame-ankled, spirit-darkened individuals In our communities and our churches. We will have it only as our leaders are men and women who are cleansed—ready to be chan-nels for the Qonveying of God's pow-er to a needy world.

HI. Doing God's Will (Acts 4:13, 13-21).

The way of life of God's leaders is not an easy one, but it is a simple one. They do God's will—nothing less, nothing more, and nothing else. What could-be more delightful?

Peter and John had spoken the truth and declared salvation to be only in the name of Jesus (v. 12). Certain easy talkers within the Church who tell us that we must not be narrow but broad enough to see salvation in all religions, had bet-ter read that verse again.

Because they had preached Christ, and for ho other reason, they were Imprisoned, then released on condi-tion that' they would not mention Hirft again. What a splendid "op-portunity for a smooth and comfort-able compromise! They could preach but Just leave out Christ. Did they' do it? No! ( w . 19, 20).

Obedience to God was paramount with them, and it must be with every .genuinely Christian leader in the Church. Nothing else will do, nor will lt have the blessing and ap-proval of God.

Callovvayans Present Preview in Tennessee

James M. Thomas and., Wayltfnd Perry of Hazel gave a preview of their entertainment at Model, Tenn.. last Sunday. The audience was not so large, but an excellent interest was manifest. The pre-view consisted of a'demonstration of their ability to make recordings on phonograph records, which, to- . gether with singing and music will be, features of the entertainment there May 30.

Three recordings were made at said place last Sunday; an espec-ially fine patriotic song fras sung by the Duflney Sisters, With'guitgr accompaniment, which was also re-corded. Of the many home-record-ings played, one was by the Ken-tucky Quartet, which was made at South Pleasant Grove about a year ago. ^Phey report, a nice trip Vl to Tennessee, and are enthusiastic over tf}e prospect of a fine enter-tainment there May 30.

REV. BILLINGTON The largest single gathering in

Akron- and possibly-'in the country Sunday was at the Akron Baptist temple at ° 2312 Manchester rd. where Rev. Dallas F. Billingtorj addressed rnore t£an 15^006 persons assembled in the teanple, in bleachers that had been set up about the church- and gathered in "over f low" rooms at Rimer school. '

An estimated 12,000 were as-sembled at the Rubber Bowl for , union sunrise ^services arranged by the Akron -Ministerial associa-tion. Nearly 2,000 more attended the Easter sunrise services of the Knights Templar at the . Palace theater. * -

(The above article was taken from the Beacon Jaurnal of Akron, Ohio. The Rev. Dallas Billington is a Calloway county product and still considers this his honre. "My heart is still here", he says, and occassionally returns here, when opportunity pern\itsf He has been unusually successful in ministerial work in > Akron. One will note f rom reading the article in''Beaeon Journal that .more people attended the Easter Set-vice at his church than did the rest of the churches and services in the city.)

Whoever first said "Variety Is the spice of life" must have had food in mind. Most likely he was thinking of his vegetable garden, for if ever one can have a wide variety of foods, it is in those from a Victory Garden.

WFithin a f e w weeks along will come tender shoots of poke as well as dandelions for "sallet" as they say in the mountains.

A little later we can expect crisp l,ettuce and crunchy radishes from die edge of tobacco plantbeds. Then come fresh onions, English peas, new potatoes and 3 whole host of others through the spring

have them if we planted the seed and took proper care of the plants, for no one has yet devised a method of producing vegetables without planning and J working, with generous applications of fer-tilizer and elbow grease.

Some folks presume that If their garden is full of potatoes ^end to-matoes, corn and beans, with few onions thrown in . for good measure, they will have plenty of food for the year. According to them a few vegetables will do so

.why waste time growing more' But the family that always grows 15 or 20 kinds of vegetables knows the advantages of. variety in the garden.

Plans for a real garden' call for at least 15 kinds of vegetables. Of course a family in town with l itt le- -space fog gardening may-have to be satisfied with less but no rural family should have to

If we have good roads and nice bank ac-counts, and let our children go with out training, what are we ac-complishing?

"Some people are not acquainted with taxe^. Injaaying taxes we are buying protection, good roads, bridges, free text books for our children, school teachers, houses in which to teach the children, school buses, and a nuipber of other things.

Kirksey, Route 1

Pfc. Charles Farmer,*graduate of | was head of the music department Murray State College, is a mem- a t Lenoir City. Tenn. where he ber of the "Camp Tyson Post baud i ' ° ® ^ I at Murray he was business man-which was recently sheeted ^to-h make a tour of Southern War Pro -duction plants with Army officers and personnel on a rallying drive against absenteeism. * Included in the. week's tour were Tennessee, North Carolina. Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi. High rankftig officers were among the speakgrs. ,

Pfc. Charles Farmer last year

ager of the College News. Pictured above, left to right, are

Lt. George Meredith, in charge of the tour; C. W. O. T. Haaning. di-rector, of band; Pfc. Charles Far-mer, bandsman; T. Sgt. Carl Mapes, principal speaker just re-turned from the African front.

Sergeant Mapes. told the work-ers: Stay ett your- jobs and weti" stay on ours".

Back in the 1870's t e a c h e s of the public schools in Kentucky had to attend Teacher's Institutes every summer. Among other daily performances was the appointment of a critic whose duty it was to look out for mistakes made on the floor and publicly call attention to them in a report aV the close of the session. One day when I was serving as critic I called attention to the word PREVEN-TATIVE which someone had used. I said it was not a good word and should not be used. My criticism called out a number of protests. After the" Institute adjourned a number of teachers met me at a down town lawyer's office and pointed out the said PREVENTA-TIVE. They thought ftiey had caught me happing. But we opened Webster's Unabridged and foufid the word, but it had immediately following it " incorrectly used for preventive." We should b e careful of our criticisms as well as of the words we use. In an old clipping in my files I recently ran across the following: . .

• Rowland Collins, in Plat-forjrri Speaking, says: "Your most inexcusable..sin is the mispronun-ciation of a worg f in common, e'veryday use. The pronunciation of the word municipal, with the accent oi\ the . third syllable," Ts decidedly offensive to an audience of any intellectual standing."
