thinking of the industrial East
with' its great pools of skilled
workers. He replied, “Listen, these
Iowa farm boys are smart, and
they work hard. I guess they learn
ed both by working on the farms.
No manpower problem yet.”
The area around St. Louis and
southern Illinois is a tremendous
center of defense activity today.
A partial list of defense contracts
there shows nearly 200 factories
working on 418 different orders.
Still Below Peak
Their total dollar volume, since
last June, has gone well over $3
million and manufacturers in those
parts are pretty blase about it:
“It’s about one-tenth of what we
did during the peak periods of the
last war,” they say.
This list is partial because it
enumerates only the “unclassified”
orders in the area, meaning those
that are not secret. A qualified in
formant said the “classified” list
is almost as large, in terms of fac
tories and larger in dollar expen
diture.
Spectacular Variety
Even so, the publishable data
shows a spectacular range of pro
duction—shoes, weapons, precision
instruments, chemicals, food, ma
chine tools, bullets, mortar conver
sion kits, ammunition containers,
soap, brake-linings/rotating bands
for shells, clothing, ovens, oxygen
cylinders, gun tun-ets, airplanes—
and stencil cutting machines.
Stencil-cutters are a big item in
any government office!
Extension Course Gets
National Publicity
“The Effect of Industrial Waste
on Aquatic Life,” a course pre
pared and taught by A. J. Krell,
a field instructor for the Texas En
gineering Extension Service, is
highlighted in the February issue
of the Industrial and Engineering-
Chemistry magazine.

Tubbs Addresses
State AVMA
Dr. C. R. Tubbs spoke of three
important phases in the field of
veterinary medicine—the State As
sociation, poultry practice and
general practice—as he addressed
the AVMA at their meeting re
cently.
In speaking of the State Asso
ciation, he urged all graduating
seniors to become members and em
phasized a few of the numerous
benefits which are derived from its
membership.
He warned against the possibil
ity of the graduating veterinarian
overlooking the advantages pre
sented by poultry practice. Al
though poultry practice is consid
ered to be of minor importance in
many localities, it is nevertheless
very important and essential to
the poultry raiser and warrants
more attention than it has received
in the past, Dr. Tubbs said.
Concerning general practice, Dr.
Tubbs discussed many of the per
plexing problems encountered by
the inexperienced veterinarian, at
tempting to start a general prac
tice in a new locality.

"Three little kittens lost their mit
tens . . " Bobby is thoroughly
absorbed in the antics of the kit
tens. He will be pleased to discover
that at the end of the story they find
their mittens again. Like all chil
dren, he wants his stories to have
happy endings.
But soon Bobby is going to find
out that life's stories don't all have
happy endings. Bobby is growing
up, out of the land of fairies and
elves, into the world of reality
Bobby must learn to meet sorrow
with understanding, pain with
courage, prosperity with thankful
ness, defeat with hope, success
with humility—he must learn to
face life.
Gifts
The Church School is waiting
with open doors for Bobby, your
Bobby. The Church School is pre
pared to show your children the
best ways to make life a success.
The Church School is ready to
teach your children—in the lan
guage of children — the eternal
truths of life.
t THE CHURCH FOR ALL ....
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest factor on earth for the
building of character and good citizenship. It is a store
house of spiritual values. Without a strong Church,
neither democracy nor civilization can survive. There
are four sound reasons why every person should attend
service regularly and support the Church. They are:
(1) For his own sake. (2) For his children's sake. (3) For
the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake
of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material
support. Plan to go to church on Sunday and read your
Bible daily.
