count of her work In the Shan
tung Province where the Pres
byterian church has over four
million Chinese. There are also
other denominations in the field
and it is one of the most heav
ily populated areas In that part
of China, the speaker pointed
out.
Miss Forsythe said that there
are still four thousand untouch
ed villages In this location and
that despite the war condition
there are more demands for
Bibles and Christian education
than ever before. She mentioned
that the printing presses are run
ning at full capacity and that
all schools and hospitals are
open as usual. She pointed out
that the missionaries are ac
complishing a great deal of ref
ugee work in cooperation with
the Red Cross and other relief
organizations. Many colleges

WEDNESDAY 8:30 A. M.
transferred miles back into cen
tral China under the Central
government, Miss Forsythe said.
The returned missionary said
that the use of opium is on the
increase In the newly acquired
Japanese part ot China where
once great fields of wheat were
grown. The opium yields from
two to three hundred dollars
per acre where the wheat
brought in about eight dollars
per acre.
Miss Forsythe expects to re
turn to China next August. She
has been situated in Tingtao for
14 years.
The speaker mentioned the
following items which are ex
cerpts from a speech written by
Madame Chiang Kai-shek and
read at the New York Herald
Tribune forum on current prob
lems: ...
"Th word of mm u embodied
In International document appears
to be fast becoming without bond,
without standing, without worth. II
civilization la now to be aaved we
must renew that unselfish devotion
and fervor which characterised the
medieval crusaders. We must regain
power to stand for those higher
principals so that the liberty of men,
the sanctity of human rights shall
not depart from the earth. With
out religion no state can long en
dure. Unless a radical change cornea
over true hearts and minds of men,
some or us will live to see civiliza
tion perish, by the very same means
used so long and so ruthlessly to
destroy China. There la only one
thing that can prevent such a dis
aster to humanity. It la religion,
whose partial eclipse I lsment. When
national consciousness and Individ
ual consciousness are developed
through a belief in religion, when
religion is accepted as the central
and motivating force of life and
conduct, then the doom of civiliza
tion may be averted, but not until
then."

Agriculture Secretary . Sees
No Assurance Program
Can Run On Indefinitely.
Chicago, Dec. 5. fP) Secre
tary of Agriculture Wallace de
clared today the federal farm
program should be made self-
supporting to assure its per
manency. The secretary was among the
speakers listed for the 21st an
nual convention of the American
Farm Bureau federation.
Secretary Wallace indicated
in his prepared speech there was
no assurance the farm program
would continue long to be fi
nanced from the general treas
ury.
Because of the European con
flict, he said, "we must under
take the biggest peacetime ex
penditures in our history for the
army and the navy.
Permanency Question
"That means our entire feder
al budget must be given sharp
scrutiny and review. And so in
the next few months, the far
mers are bound to come face
to face with the question, how
really permanent is the national
farm program?"
Wallace shared with Edward
A. O'Neal, the. federation presi
dent, a discussion of means
whereby the farm program
could be maintained in the light
of recent economic develop
ments and opposition from non
agricultural groups.
In a prepared address, O'Neal
urged the program be made
self-supporting, but he declared
farmers intend to fight for
enough money to carry it on
"because national prosperity is
directly dependent on the wel
fare of the farmers."
Police Wisecracks Hushed.
Boston. (U.R) Police Sup
erintendent Edward W. Fallon
ordered patrolmen in radio
squad cars to stop wise crack
ing and joshing. He said that
some officers had been replying
with comical comments to mes
sages broadcast from headquarters.

The 25-cent piece, found by
Archie Jr., in a rubbish heap
recently, was dated 1876.

sen paid him $100 for it.

valued at a million dollars an
nually, is exceeded only by

This Is How We Financed
Our Christmas Shopping...
Less than a week ago Bob and I were having a sad
case of doldrums! Reason? No ready cash with which
to buy Christmas gifts, and we just couldn't let our
selves get in debt. Then Bob thought of the Classified
Ads and without telling me, he placed an ad mention
ing the things like Mary's baby carriage and Brother'
three wheel bicycle, our old gas heater and Bob's old
golf clubs which we had no more use for. Sure
enough, Bob sold everything and handed me the cash
with which to Christmas-shop for the family. We're
happy. And the folks who bought those former posses
sions of ours at low cost will have a merrier Christmat
too.
