Enrollment Grows In Youth Section Peace Campaign PHILADELPHIA, June 16.—From colleges all over the country the head quarter# staff of the Youth Section of the Emergency Peace Campaign is receiving reports of active interest in the summer plans of its Emergency Peace Volunteers. Hundreds of young people have applied for enrollment already, and a number of them have been offered the financial support of college and other groups in providing the half of their expenses in the field which they are expected to pay them selves. One example of such support on a large scale Is reported from the Uni versity of West Virginia at Morgan town, W. Va.

A mimeographed sheet has been prepared and distributed to all stu dents, outlining the stresses being ex perienced in the world today which might lead to conflicts, and urging more general interest in them, their causes and their cure. “If the people, sincerely desiring peace as they do,” says this sheet, “are shown the paths by which America was led and is being led into war, and if their voice is given ex pression and guidance by trained lead ers, ( then it yet may nob be too late. “And that is where the several hundred students from the nation’s leading colleges and universities come into the picture,” it continues. TROUBLES I OF WORLD NOT NEW‘ 4,000 YEARS AGO PEOPLE# WERE SURE IT WAS COMING TO END By VIRGINIA LEE "OUR EARTH is degenerate in these latter days; there are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end; bribery and corruption are com mon; children no longer obey their parents; every man wants to write a book, and the end of the world is evidently approaching.” Wouldn't you think these words were written about 1936? Well, they were not. According to Dr. Fred erick C. Ferry, president of Hamilton college, they were written in the year 2800 B. C. on an Assyrian tablet. That war succeeds war, and there are many indications that civilization will be completely destroyed by con flicts in which all toe nations of the earth take part, would doubtless also be true of that faraway day, as it is of this. We have advanced in science. We now skim through the water, over the earth and in the sky in ways that were not dreamed of in those days, and the common man —once a slave —has a good deal more liberty and many more comforts than he had then, in spite of his still unsatisfac tory position in the world, but hat reds, Injustices, violence and pas sion seem as rampant now as then, over 4,000 years ago. Maybe they are not; possibly we have progressed in those fields, too, and are more moral than in ancient times, but we are so fl»r from being “good”, that we can not help being discouraged. ♦ ♦ * BOBBIE is another young girl who has trouble at home. She has a step father who casts slurs on her boy friend, who is of a different nation ality than herself. Your stepfather doesn’t forbid you to go with the boy, I gather, Bobbie, so I’d keep up the friendship. I think the slurs on his nationality are very unjust, and in tolerant—very bad stuff. Don’t let yourself get that way. But get home in good time at night. I think you should be allowed to go to parties occasionally, but not to stay out so late that your mother worries. Good luck to you, Bobbie. There are about 1,000,000 square miles of lake and river surface in the entire world, and nearly 2,000,000 square miles of Islands in the seas. HIS ANSIVER A none-too-well-prepared applicant for a civil service appointment found the following question on his exami nation paper: “How near is the moon to the earth?” He replied: “Not near enough to bother me in my work, if I get this job.” JsavannahL Automobile Company’s *nr— “LEADS SAVANNAH IN USED CAR VALUES.” The BUICK and PONTIAC Place Extend An Invitation to YOU, YOU and YOU to See For Yourself VALUES Never Heard of in the History of USED CARS.

S. C., June 16.—Or i ganization of the Anderson-Woodruff- York Highway League, has been cre ated by South Carolinians for the promotion of a direct safety highway from Norfolk. Va., to Houston, Texas. The league constitutes the initial unit of a contemplated Southern Short- Way Association to be composed of similar leagues in eight states The group sponsors the immediate routing and survey of new road links from the Saluda river bridge on South Carolina Highway No. 247 east of Belton via Fork Shoals, thence west of Owings, crossing the Enoree river over prseent Woodruf, a dis tance of approximately 20 miles; thence from Woodruff passing near Glenn Springs directly to Hickory Grove, a distance of about 40 miles. There the new route would connect with South Carolina Highway No. 5 to York and over Soutl) Carolina Highway No. 163 and North Carolina Highway No. 49 to Charlotte. The highway from Hickory Grove to Char lotte already is paved. It 4s estimated that this new short cut across South Carolina would eliminate about 30 miles between An derson and York, and about 22 miles between Anderson and Char lotte. In addition, it would provide an alternate route from Charlotte via York connecting South Carolina Highway No. 9 to Spartanburg and Greenville. Furthermore, it would con nect an alternate and shorter route from Anderson to Gaffney, saving about eight and nine miles, respec tively. This new arrangement would pro vide key links in the proposed South ern Short-Way which would follow a straight line between Norfolk, Va., and Baton Rouge, La., a distance of over 100 miles. Since the route would follow a straight line as nearly as possible, no present or future route could be shorter, it was pointed out. It would cross and connect most north-south United States highways in the South and would cross ma jor rivers at existing crossings. PENSION LEADER HAPPY OVER MAINE ELECTION CHICAGO, June 16 (TP)—Dr. Francis Townsend told Transradio Press today that he is highly pleased with the showings made by Town send Club candidates in the Maine primaries. In a joint statement with his lieu tenant, Gerald Smith, Dr. Townsend claimed two victories in three states in the Maine congressional races. The chief of the S2OO-A-Month Pension Organization emphatically denied newspaper reports thf, a Townsend candidate was overwhelmed in the race for the nomination for governor. Said Townsend: “We endorsed no gubernatorial candidate.” Townsend added: “If we do as well in the national field, we'll be satisfied. As Maine goes, so goes the nation.” HINTS MAKE LIFE HARD FOR WOMAN HUSBAND’S SUSPICIOUS, SO WIFE THREATENS TO LEAVE By VIRGINIA LEE WHO IS more hateful and does more mischief than a liar and tale bearer? The person who never tells tales right out or says a single thing against another person, but who hints. “Better watch your wife,” he says, grinning. “Why?” you ask. “I’ll never tell,” or “Oh, nothing,” says he, laughing gaily, “only watch.” Isn’t that beastly? Nothing definite, you see, only a hint that Friend Wife isnt all she should be .Often the hint er thinks he's being funny, but I can tell him his sense of humor is warp ed, and tragedy is likely to follow his mean insinuations. A Real Man would give such a sug gested a good healthy punch and tell him he’d better mind what he says. But humans are poor, weak creatures, and some of them think the hinter really knows something against the person he hints about, and even in the*’ mind of the one who “smacks him down”, a little seed may be plant ed that may, given a good healthy chance, blossom into a strong and troublesome weed. Such is the case with a woman who writes me and asks my advice. She and her husband and children would be happy, she says, except that one of those insinuating beasts toid the husband he had better look out for his wife. And the poor sap of a hus band, although he knows this man is a trouble maker, can't trust his wife and she, poor girl, although she knows herself to be innocent of any wrong, is on the verge of leaving him because his jealous suspicions make life miserable for her. He has his moments of reason when he promises he will not distrust her, and then he helps her with the house work and they are happy with the babies. But then, I suppose he thinks over what the man might mean, and as time goes on, he gets worse and worse, his wife says. Mrs. M. E. F.: You certainly pick ed a weak brother for a husband, my dear. If he had any manhood about him he would tell that man if he ever said anything like that about his wife again he would punch his head, and mean it. How a man who loves his wife can let another even hint that she isn't all she should be is a mystery to me, especially as he knows from past experience that this man is a mischief maker.* Your life, from what you tell me, is an open book, and I think if this thing goes on I would advise you to tell your father about the whole thing and let him settle with your husband and the other fellow, too. He, at least, would stand up for his girl. Don't break up your home if you can help It. But try to have it very definitely understood that you will not stand much more nonsense of that kind. Sun hats are amusing, with large brims ,tiny cone-shaped crowns, or Chinese effects without crowns. They usually are in gay-colored straw, with ribbons that tie under the back of the head. There also are some fabric beach hats ith ide brims, but no crowns. wederal Savings i|AND LOAN ASSOCIATION 808 REALTY BUILDING SAVANNAH, GA.
