' THERE are censorship troubles Jn Australia, where newspaper eultlohs have been confiscated because they carried news of "misunderstandings a b r o rt d." (Presumed to be accounts of .American ivuction to recent tales that the Australian army is to be- reduced In order to provide more Workers on the homo front.) Most people will agree tluil when censorship trios to stop political news and discussion It Is going much too far. Breeder-Hen Turkey, Put In Price Class for "Old" Breeder-hen turkeys, regardless of age, are classified as "old tur keys" and must not sell nt higher prltvs than those allowed by OPA regulations for that classification, the' district OPA price division uimounees. The ruling was made ID answer to- problems arising rrom sale by gome dealers of 11-month-old birds of breeder hen stock at young turkey prices. The sale of thti young bre&dura has been due to a slightly earlier season. A breeder-hen turkey, It was held, is one which has laid eggs for hatching, and prices for such fowl are 8 cents .to 9 cents below the price for young hens or torns. MUTUAL AID, NOT CHARITY By Charles UlE enjoyed o visit earlier1 P Arnold, general manager a corporation organized to the blind. Colonel Arnold was blinded during World War J, but has refused to permit his physical handicap to halt an aggressive cafGer, " Despite his loss of sight, he was the organizer and leader of the Tillamook Guerillas. He- has been very active in civic and political 'activities. He' is now devoting his time and energies :to the corporation which would train dogs to fUrnlsh eyes for persons already blind and those who will be blinded by combat and war production wounds and adcidents. ; , We mention the visit of Colonel Arnold because of the phrase used in bis discussion of the program in which he is How engaged, :,lhe corporation, of which he is manatrer, must be supported entirely by private contributions. It has1 no other soul-ce of income. Many people would call a sub scription to this, organization by the name of charity. We prefer, however, the term "mutual aid" used in our conversa tion with, the colonel, j : ! !

"He that dwelleth In the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." Ps. 91. It is not a tehiporary shelter, but ft per manent dwelling place for all soldiers of Jesus Christ. It is not simply a human habita tion, but is the secret place of the Most High, who in turn shares it with man, as earthly parents furnish their children with a home. So the Heaven ly Father furnishes a home for His redeemed ones. In the se cret place we are under , the Bhadow of the Almighty, that affords protection ; from '.the storms and scorching heat, and helps man to withstand temp tation. There we find the shade and cool, refreshing spring pouring ;f orth , the Water of lifeifrqiri beneath the Rock Df Ages. The shelter of the soul is in this secret place of the Most High. ' The shelter of the Almighty is bomb'proof against the '.forces of : evil. Nothing can harm life, iif ;we live within the shadow of God. Then we have the promise of His protection. How thankful we should be for this impreg nable shelter for we cannot escape the storms of .,lifej put they cannot ,:harm .us if we trust hi Him.
