Included in that 5 is the small percentage known a alcoholics."

In conjunction with "Johnny Angel," the Craterian will show the novel and sensational fea turette "Hitler Lives," a force ful Indictment of German sav agery with an eloquent reminder that the. doctrine of world con quest is destined to assert Itself unless there is an alert watchful world. In dramatic scenes showing Bismarck, Kaiser and Hitler as German lust for conquest, the stark reality of the future possi bilities of a World War III is portrayed. In spite of drastic controls by the allied commis sions and the dismantling of the strong Industrial empire that fed the German war machine, the continuation of Hitler ideals, in countries around the world forms perhaps the least suspect but the greatest of all the dan gers facing civilization today. The systematic and Ironically ef fective corruption of the German youth during Hitler's rule has left a generation of poisoned minds which must not only be nmIm Tn Creditors IN THE COUNTY COURT OF THE STATE Vt untuun svin .TACKSON COUNTY.

"I am growing Impatient," he announced with a nod of bis head toward Jerry, our brown gelding, which he had Just rid den up and tied to a tree. The much publicized patience of Job has been greatly over rat ed. To be patient tor a day, or even a month, is one thing. But to remain calmly unruffled through six years of having your land laid waste by a horse Is major league restraint. Of course there Is another viewpoint If the neighbor has grown In grace through these years of persecution, why maybe he should thank Jerry, not con demn him. Certainly we, as Jer ry's owners, deserve no credit. Not that we object to character development. In fact we are all for it But we believe in free enterprise; let each man acquire qualities of character by his own methods, is our motto. And we have known a long time that the neighbor wished to have no truck with Jerry. Cooperating like we always do, w tried fences, both wire and electric. No good. We then staked him out, tied him to trees, fl.ially shut him In the barn. Still no good. Jerry Jumped over, barged through, pulled loose, chewed free or broke out, suit it J his method to the need. One thing I must say for Jer ry, he never tries to shift the blame for his depredations onto some other horse. He Just lets his finger prints fall where they will and leaves 'em. If he arrives In the night, he doesn't leave ome morning. Yes sir, Jerry's code of ethics may be his own. but he has one: Like when he prefers psnsies to carrots, he Just over the fence and takes pansies, not sneaking up on them, like a horse with less character might. But there are metes and bounds to human character de velopment. There is a saturation point, you might say. I knew the neighbor had reached his when he said, "I am growing Im patient." A riggin' sllnger was present at the time. He told the neighbor he would have to speak Eng lish, if he was to make any im pression. "What you need to do," he enlarged, 'is to use some log ger lingo. Scinething mild of course, seeing there's a lady pres ent. You might try, 'You keep your blankety-1 lank nag at home o- 1 11 blanketv well knock your so-and-so bloc off. Try this first. If It falls, I'll give vou lesson number two." "But that's exactly what I have been raying," the neighbor re plied. "Didn't 1 say I was losing patience? Something tells me it's time we really did keep Jerry home. UNNECESSARY BUILDING DUE FOR EARLY LIMIT Washington, Feb. 22 U.P.) Housing Administrator Wilson W.
