: The Angel Anael
BY ROBERT ASHFORD &
Last night as I lay on my pillow, I sought relief in
repose,
While I dreamed of beatified beings, beyond the
“Valley of Woes.”
1 sought in silence, the pathway, which leads to an
ultimate goal,
While the hope I cherished impressed me, with rap
ture that is untold.
The progress of my search seemed vain, but, faith
enlightened my dream
Which proved a charming reflection impressed by a
memorable scene,
The sadness which seemed to depress, and render
my efforts in’ vain,
Concerning the thing fondly cherished which often
one fails to attain,
Passed away, as it were, like the clouds which seem
to obscure the sun,
Whose radiance reminds us of the thing we hope to
have won.
The trials of life are lightened, which once were
burdens of care,
And is rendered a glorious achievement to him who
acts “on the square.”
There gleams in the midst of life’s errors, the glori
ous sparkle of Tenth,
Reminding one of the faith expressed in the story
of Ruth.
1 thought no more of the failures who return unhon
ored to the sod,
1 invoked the Author of my being, it was heard
from the myansions of God.
Behold the Angel Anael, a messenger of Infinite
Love,
Appeared o'er life’s “Valley of Woes,” with a mes=~
- spge sent from above,
His wings overshadowed the valiey, where many
were laden with care,
And the sorrows of those who mourn were con
stantly heard on the air,
But, under the presence of the angel it becomes in
an instant tranformed,
And blossoms with the beauty of Sharon, when
kissed by the dews of the dawn,
As a token of grateful remembrance, to the “Glori
ous Ruler on High,”
A fragrance like incense ascended to the dome of
the blue vaulted sky.
As I looked upon the face of the angel, radiant with
splendor subline,
1 thought of the children of the dust, o'ershadowed
i by the pinions of time,
Who seek in the midst of life’s sorrows, some balm
to cure their pain,
Yield to the tide of misfortune( give.up the struggle
as vain.
1 thought of the mother who laments o’er the error
of a wandering child,
And seeks a surcease from sorrow, in a realm un
corrupted with guile.
A realm adored by the sages, foretold in dreams of
the blest,
Untouched by the flight of the ages, secure in man
sions of rest,
Where hopes fondly cherished may greet us, clad in
the noblest ideal, .
And those now cherished in memory, may meet us
again in the real, ;
My thoughts for a moment oppressed me, like the
. chant of a solemn requiem, .
And crept into my fancy, like the spell of a feverish
dream.
The angel, my thoughts, thus reading, bade me look
upon the sky above,
And behold the glory of the stars, the work of his
Infinite Love.
The radiant stars of the Plaeides, as well as the
atom of the clod,
Performing each, in its cycle, the sublime mandates
of God.
Innumerable worlds march onward, heedless of
the flight of Time,
Proclaiming the glory of their Creator, in Nature’s
language sublime,
Let not the quest deceive thee, in search of some far
distant goal,
But, think on things that are spiritual, things con
cerning the Soul. :
The law inherent in the atom, as well as the might
iest sphere,
Reveal a wonderful lesson that one should cherish
as dear,
The path to happiness eternal is not through far
away doors,
But, peed the message Divine, and escape life’s
bitterest woes. 5
The angel finished his message and returned to the
City of Gold,
Me scattered my sad reflections and replaced them
with joys untold. .
Impressed by a brilliant dawning of a bright and
better day,
When the age of war and depression is destined to
vanish away.
Inspired by the light of my dream, for I had noth
ing to fear,
I knew that this age was passing, and the “Golden
Age” was near, .

The Taft And Eisenhower
Vote In Penn. And 111.
In a reasonably accurate sense, Pennsylvania’s
presidential primary was Illinois in reverse.
Senator Taft won Illinois overwhelmingly against
Harold Stassen, the only .other candidate on the
pallot. General Eisenhower took Pennsylvania in
sweeping style, again swamping Stassen, his sole
ballot opponent.
In Illinois, Eisenhower polled upwards of 135,000
in write-in votes. In Pennsylvania, Taft collected
close to 130,000 write-ins. Taft's percentage of the
Illinois vote was 73, against Eisenhower’s 11 per
cent. Ike’s share of the Pennsylvania Republican
total was 76, against Taft's 13 percent.
Both write-in showings were creditable under
the circumstances. There was more surface evidence
of campaign effort behind Ike’s Illinois write-in
than behind Taft’s in Pennsylvania. But not all
campaign work meets the eye, and it is possible
some pretty earnest vote-drumming was done by
the Taft forces in Pennsylvania, |
The only fair conclusion to draw is that Illinois
proved itself good Taft territory and Pennsylvania
showed solid Eisenhower leanings.
1t is too bad these two candidates were not actu
ally matched on the ballot in both states, since a
fair test would then have heen had in two of the
most populous sectors of the country.
Eisenhower was kept off the Illinois ballot be
cause his campaign leaders considered it an unfav
orable state, Taft was held off the ballot in Penn
sylvania for much the same reason..
We may discount the senator’s statement that he
stayed out because the result of the popularity test
was not binding on delegates, Neither is it in Illi
nois, New Hampshire or West Virginia — all states
Taft chose to enter.
Illinois and Pennsylvania do not quite cancel
each other, Taft won 59 of 60 GOP delegates in Illi
nois, because the officially unpledged winners are
actually pro-Taft organization candidates.
It’s another story in Pennsylvania, where Gover
nor Fine and the Grundy-Owlett organization con
trol some 60 of the unpledged delegates and have
not yet committed them to any candidate. Despite
Ike's victory, Taft still may come out with a big
chunk of that delegate strength. °
Eisenhower’s parallel triumph in New York is of
a slightly different order. He has been conceded the
great bulk of New York’s 96 GOP delegates all
along, though Taft people have now and then
claimed as many as 20. Ike supporters won all but
a few of the 11 disputed berths, and thus the gen
eral will have close to 90 additional votes at Chi
cago,
Fairly it may be said that Pennsylvania and New
York ran true to form. They brought the GOP race
closer to the decisive stage, but they did not actu
ally tip the scales either way.
Another New Deal! \
With Harry Truman’s announcement that he
“does not choose to run,” the political prospects on |
a national scale take on new and even more inter
esting aspect.
Truman’s decision was a wise one, and a decision
which was for the most part accepted enthusiasti
cally by the Democratic Party. For the Democrats
now have a greater chance to keep their party in
power. Truman could not have won—that much is
certain. Another candidate may have a chance.
This much, however, should be remembered.
Washington still needs a housecleaning. Will the
corruption now so rampant be fostered for another
four years under a new Democratic regime? It's a
big question, and one that should be answered be
fore voters go to the polls.
Yes, it will be an interesting election.—Country
Wide News (Texas),
Admission of Truce Teams IsKey
Key issue in Korean armtistice negotiations may
turn out to be not the prisoner-of-war or airfield
construction issues now played, up, but the willing
ness of the Communists to admit non-Communist
observers in North Korea.
Russians have never countenanced such inspec
tion by outsiders on any issue—atomic energy, dis
armament, elections in Germany or any of the
satellite countries.
If the North Korean-Chinese Communist nego
tiators finally agree to admission of United Nations
truce team inspectors'in their teiritory, it may be
taken as an indication that they really want peace.
If they stall on this Issue, it will be only what
might be expected. It will show that the Russian
Politburo leaders in Moscow, who are pulling the
strings on this puppet show, haven’t changed abit.
Moscow Composes Catchy Offer
Closer examingtion of the recent Moscow Eco
nomic Conference proposals has revealed a num
ber of catches. Offers by the head of the Moscow
Chamber of Commerce to make billion-dollar pur
chases listed machinery and herring, ba}l bearings
and textiles, ships and citrus fruits.
The gimmick here is that the Russians can buy
consumer goods—the herring, citrus fruits and tex
tiles—any time they want to come in and lay the
money on the line in any mrarket in the world. The
things they can’t buy are the strategic machinery
items they want as tie-ins.
The Amrericans, as far as I know, are the only
people who ever taxed themselves for foreigners in
peace time. — British Foreign Secrtary Anthony

Boyle Ponders Best Way To Bid
The Little Woman Fond Farewell
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK—(AP)— How to
say goodbye to your wife in the
morning?
More and more thoughtful Am
ericans believe this is the crucial
matrimonial problem of modern
times. At least I sometimes get
that impression after listening to
wives discuss the subject.
All agree that their husbands,
thoughtful though they may be on
other occassions, have neglected
the art of delivering the daily
farewell.
“My husband is in a fog from
the time he gets up until he goes
out the door,” one wife com
plained.
Sometimes I wish he would even
beat me-anything to show he rea
lized 1 was alive.”
Another wife objected to the

Nagging backache, logs of pep and energy,
headaches and dizziness may be due to slow

kidney function is very important to good
health. When some everyday condition, such
as stress and strain, causes this important
funetion toslow down, many folks suffernag

cause getting up nights or frequent passages.
Don’t neglect your kidneys if these condi

peck on the check her mate gave

“There is no greater insult than
an absent-minded Kiss,” she af
firmed.
Several more wives aroused
about the silent treatment accord
ed them by husband with a chron
ic habit of reading the newspaper
at breakfast.
One wife said that whenever her
husband laughed at something he
was reading and she asked him
what was funny, he just looked
up with glazed eyes and said
HWhO?” @
The basic trouble in these situa
tions- appears to be that wives
feel they are doomed to another
lonely day in the home while hub
by is off to another gay gallop at
the office. The husbands, on the
other hand, don’t intend to be
tho%h%’ess. They simply aren’t
awake "yet. No man ever really
comes to his full senses before
noon.
But if a fellow can do his work
all morning at the office while
half-asleep, there is no reason why
he can’t train himself to give his
wife a convincing goodby in the
same condition before leaving
home. It just takes a little train
ing. Look at a horse-he can sleep
standing up.
The first thing to decide is what
kind of a goodbye will really im
press your wife, Then practice do
ing it until it becomes automatic.
Young wives like the robust ro
mantic touch. If you have one of
these, simply wipe the egg from
your moutnh, bend her backward
over the breakfast table, kiss her
feverently and murmur—*“till
dusk.”
Naturally the spinal columns of
middle-aged wives might crack
under this treatment-or your own
might, if you are a middle-aged
husband. Perhaps, if you fall in
this catagory, it would be simpler
merely to grasp both her hands
and say fondly, “life wouldn’t be
the same without you, hon.”
Another solution is to sit down
and-between gulps of coffee-
WRITE HER A SIMPLE BOYESH
LOVE LETTER TELLING HER
HOW MUCH SHE REALLY
MEANS TO YOU. A short one will
do four or five pages. If you don’t
have time to do that in the morn
ing, write it the night before after
she falls asleep. Then pin it in her
hair curlers so she’ll find it as a
surprise when she awakes.
There is one other method to
cope with the. problem of the
morning matrimonial parting, and
more and more men are finding it
highly satisfactory.
“I just stay home now and let
my wife go to work,” explained
one husband. “That gives her the
problem of saying goodbye to me.
And you know what? Some morn
ings she acts as if she hardly
knows I was there.”

Infected Tonsils And Adenoids
Cause Most Hearing Troubles
BY EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D.
Written for NEA Service
The ability to hear well is a pre
cious quality which mmust be pre
served if at all possible, and if
not, which must be relieved to the
greatest possible degree. In reccg
nition of this, National Hearing
Week will pe observed this year
from May 4 to 10, and sevéral col
umns this week will therefore be
devoted to the problem of hetter
hearing.
Hearing difficulties are not rare;
it is said that one person out of
ten needs some kind of hearing
help, but it is encouraging that so
much is being done to prevent
difficulty and to aid those who do
have some hearing troubles.
An interesting report on a con
servation of hearing program for
school children comes from Hart=-
ford county, Maryland. During the
three-year period of a survey, 70
percent of the children in the
county’s schools were. screened
for hearing defects.
About one child out of seven,
among the 7,000 tested, failed to
have perfect hearing as shown by
the original test and was referred
for further study.
Out of the 1,118 youngsters who
failed the original test, 712 showed
a certain type of hearing defect
called chronic conduction deaf
ness, which was nearly always as=
sociated with chronic or acute in=-
sections of the upper breathing
tract — most commonly, infected
tonsils and adenoids.
One hundred - ninety children
had their tonsils and adenoids re
moved, though this number was
only about one-third of those for
whom it had been recommended.
Of those for whom this proce=
dure was done, about seven out of
10 showed definite improvement
in hearing. Only about three out
of 10 of those for whom it was
recommended, but was not done,
showed any hearing improvement.
No Need to Wait
The degree of hearing improve
ment was about the same in older
“and in younger children. So there
seems to be no reason for waiting
to have the tonsils and adenoids
removed to conserve hearing, if
removal is otherwise indicated,
merely because a child is older. In
other Yvords, the operation should
not be'postponed merely in the
hope of improvement. 28
| Ehls experience is only one of
several attempts to conserve hear
ling. It is, of course, better to save
good hearing than to try to treat
it once it has gone bad, and there
fore, efforts to do this should be
encouraged.
In closing this article, I should
like to mention the fact that the
Americdn Hearing Society (817
14th Street, N. W., Washington 5,
D. C.) is a national headquarters
for informration relating to hear
in. The Volta Bureau (1537 35th
Street, N. W., Washington 7, D. C.)
also distributes pamphlets on this
subject.
