CLARIFYING THE VIEW According to visual evidence, this has been a notable spring for the man of the house to get acquinted with the condition o f the putty in his windows. And to learn that rain does not keep the outside of the window panes clean. O f course, a man can claim that this driest spring in a century is responsible for the Lady’s insist ence that she "can’t see through the windows.’’ A logical reason is always helpful. Window washers used to do the work, quick ly and efficiently. This spring the head of the household has found that the process is a pecul iar and tantalizing one. Theoretically, after a window has been washed and dried it should be sparkling clean. Practically, after one has been scrubbed and rubbed there are still heter ogeneous smudges and streaks. The manpower situation is responsible but the man who catches the 8:15 knows the outside of his property bet ter than he has for a long time.— Christian Sc ience Monitor. GERMAN ROUT IN ITALY The Germans were evidently routed in Italy. They retreated in wild disorder, leaving only mines and suicide squads behind to delay the Allied advance, units stealing each other’s equ ipment to rush their advance to the rear. If this happened to the Italians it could be charged o ff as a natural expectation, but Ger many’s isn’t that kind of an army. The men f i ght with dogged determination under the most adverse conditions. If ordered to fight to the death as at Stalingard they usually do. Only in North Africa did they quit at all easily and then only on orders from their commanders who de fied Hitler’s orders. Even in Russia they were seldom reduced to a disorganized mass. How significant the Italian debacle is we don’t know, but it strongly suggests a serious decline in German morale, such as preceded the blowup of November, 1918. It should how ever be kept in mind that only in Italy can such a conclusion be drawn. In France and Russia the Germans are still fighting furiously. — Idaho Free Press Owyhee A motion picture with sound por traying a Bible story with a gospel message by Rev.
