Military men are inveterate students of matters theological. Literature on the subject is al ways poured over whether on the battlefield, in camp, in hos pitals or on ships at sea. War, it seems, has a tendency to pro voke a desire to reform mankind by the process of religious truth. According to the best accounts the most striking example . of reform in a soldier trained un der orders to do violence to the sect of early Christians was the conversion of St. -Paul, a Ro man soldier first and then a leader of the disorganized fol-j lowers of Christ.

The main purpose of the Oregon Milk Control Law is to hold prices up. To do this it gives the Milk Administration authority to set prices at the farm, wholesale and retail levels. It is unlaw ful to sell milk below these set prices, but Milk Control sets no upper limit on prices. The effect of this regimentation on YOU is that well managed businesses that keep their costs down are not permitted to pass I their savings on to the customer. Such regula tions protect high-cost operators, and actually require low-cost operators to take a larger profit than is necessary. . In other words, you have no chance to get as low a price as the best merchandisers can afford to give you. SHOP SAFEWAY...
