NRA ENFORCEMEN criticism, properly enough, penalties inflicted in various states «fer petty infringements of NRA codes. Some | | inorder to | of them have been under the federal en- forcement laws and some under state laws. Perhaps there are three or four things that ought to be said about such cases, and ahout the emotions they arouse, keep our thinking straight. First, severity. Some of these penal- ties inflicted on small dealers have been | absurdly severe, and could not be justified in public opinion ever if proportionately severe penalties were visited upon big dealers or manufacturers for greater in- fractions. But this is not the whole story. Second, revision. The codes have been | written by the trades and industries them- selves, not by the government. The latter, in general, has merely approved them when it was convinced that, on the whole, they would serve the purpose of eliminat- ing cutthroat competition and assuring aj; fairer deal within the group. Mistakes have been made in many codes. Some pro- visions are unworkable; some are unfair to the “‘little fellows.” Codes, however, ean be revised. There are committees and boards of appeal. Let wronged minorities or individuals. get together and insist on re- vision. Third, trial. ‘The codes expire hy limitation tiéxt year. The present period is experimental. when the next congress meets, whether this system of business control by joint ac- tion of business and government will work, and whether we want it continued. If a majority of business men or a majority of voters have turned thumbs down by that time, the code system will evaporate. Meanwhile, it is horse sense to give the ex- periment a fair test. Fourth, enforcement. Why the haste for state government to enact enforcement laws during this trial period, when the fed- eral government has the- machinery for it already in. operation? Won't there be plenty of time for assumption of state con- trel if and when NRA survives its federal test? The important thing at present is for business, public and government all to keep their shirts on and co-operate to make the test fair and complete. BETTER POULTRY Farmers’ wives formerly looked upon the poultry flock as merely a means of better providing for the family table, with possibly a little “pin money” from the sur- plus chickens and eggs. For these pur- poses jt was not thought that any par- ticular care was necessary in the selection of breeds or in the general handling of the flock. $ But that idea is fast being discarded and the thrifty farm homemaker now looks upon her poultry as an important source of cash.income. She has found that it is little-more trouble to have a big flock than it isito have a small flock, and the big flock is ® money-maker. _ ‘Not only does she have larger flocks nowadays, but she has better stock and employs ‘scientific methods in her poultry taising! “More attention is‘ giventé Proper feeding and sanitation; poor layers are culled out; infertile eggs are produced and they are marketed clean, graded accord- ing to size and color. A good-sized flock of pure-bred chickens affords one of the most depend- able sources of farm income. FARM INSURANCE Farmers thronghout the country are insuring their property against fire less to a greater extent than formerly, a recent survey by the Department of Agriculture shows, In 10 years the amount of farm insurance in ferce increased from six bil- lien dollars to 10 billion dollars. A great deal of this insurance is car- ried by mutual insurance companies or- ganized by the farmers themselves, and the average rate is very low, being only about 26 cents a year for each $100 of in- surance. Insurance is carried very gen- erally in the Northern and Eastern states, while a majority of farmers in the South- ern states carry little or nene. Considering the very low rate at which farm insurance may be obtained it would seem that every pradent farmer would avail himself of this means of pro- tection, There has been \a good deal of | of severe | We shall all know better, | Lite of Our Lorn THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1934. ‘Chatiles Dickens The Hitherto Unpublished Manuscript Kept Secret 85 Years.

CHAPTER THE NINTH. HE feast of the Passover being now almost come, Jesus said to two of his disciples, Peter and John, “Go into the city of Jerusalem, and you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water, Follow him home, and say to him, ‘the Master says where is the guest-chamber, where he . can eat the Passover with his Disciples? And he will shew. | you a large upper room, furnished. There, make ready the supper,” As The two disciples found that it happened as Jesus had said; and having met the man with the pitcher of water. and having followed him home, and having been shewn the room, they prepared the supper, and Jesus and the ather ten apostles came at the usual time, and they all sat down to partake of it together. e Kt is always called The Last Supper, because this was the last time that Our Saviour ate and drank with his Disciples. * * *. ND he took bread from the table, and blessed it, and” broke it, and gave it to them; and he took the cup of Wine, and blessed it,.and drank, and gave it to them, say- i “Do this in remembrance of Me!” And when they had hed supper, and had sung a hymn, they went out into the Mount of Olives, There, Jesus told them that he would he seized that night, and that they would all leave him alone, and would | think only of their own safety. Peter said, earnestly, he never would, for one. ‘Before the’ cock crows,” returned Our Saviour, “you .will deny me thrice.” But Peter an- swered “No Lord, Though | should die with Thee, 1 will never deny Thee.” And all the other Disciples said the seme, ee: ESUS then led the way over a brook, called Cedron, into a garden that was called Gethsemane; and walked with three of the disciples into a retired part of the garden. Then he left them as he had left the others, together; say- ing, “Wait here, and watch!”—and went away and prayed by Himself, while they, being weary, fell asleep. And Christ suffered great sorrow and distress of mind, in his ‘prayers in that garden, because of the wickedness of the men of Jerusalem who were going to kill Him; and He shed tears before God, and was in deep and strong affliction. i When His prayers were finished, and He was com- forted, He returned to the Disciples, and said “Rise! Let us be going! He is close at hand, who will betray me!” ~ NOW, Judas knew that garden well, for-our Saviour had ofter walked there, with his Disciples; and, almost at the moment when Our Saviour said these words, he came . there, accompanied by a strong guard of men and officers, which had heen sent by. the chief Priests and Pharisees. It being dark, they carried lanterns and torches, They were armed with swords and staves too; for they did not know but that the people would rise and defend Jesus Christ; and this had made them afraid to seize Him boldly _ in the day, when he sat teaching the people. As the leaders of this guard had never seen Jesus } Christ and did not know him from the apostles, Judas had“ KEY WEST IN DAYS GONE BY) mriea. casting their ballots?

Let my disciples here, go-freely, I am He,” .Which Judas ¢on- firmed, by saying “Hail Master!” and kissing him. Where- upon Jesus said, “Judas, Thou betrayest me with a kiss!” The guard then ran forward to seize Him. No one offered to protect Him, except Peter, who, haying a sword, drew it, and cut off the right ear of the High Priest’s servant, who was one of them, and whose name was Mal- chus. But Jesus made him sheath his sword, and gave him- self up. Then all the disciples forsook Him and fled; and there remained not one—not one—to bear Him company. - (Continued tomorrow.)
