Patrice, a schoolteacher in Los .Angeles, and Lina, a dance -hall entertainer, both madly in love 'with Randolph Scott, stage a fight :in. which Nina tries to slash Pat with a knife, During the first take, the girls thoiled around the dusty floor of e set, struggling for possession id the weapon, something went wrong and the breathless girls lied to play the scene a second time. • As if the bell for another round had just gone, they went at it again, In the struggle, Lina hurl- ed Pat right across the room so That her arm hit an iron kettle 'with a mighty blow, ' When the director yelled "Cut!" Pat sat on the floor, rubbing her bruised arm and calling for water t0 wash the dust out of her mouth, The two actresses glared at each ether.

"As soon as we clean you up," promised the director, with a /sigh of relief, "we'll do it again, but, Lina, don't hide the knife 'when you roll over the next time. We want to see it" Make-up men, hairdressers and wardrobe women went into ac- tion like seconds working over 'their ring opponents between xounds — and the two girls were Salmon and Rice Mold Late Summer Treat 1Yx DOROTHY MADDOX A RICH, beautiful -to -leek -at jellied salmon and rice mold makes the perfect dialttor your late summer porch party, your Labor !Day at borne, or for your canasta luncheon.

This time the knife re- mained in camera view, the girls finished with a suitable crash, and Felix called, "Print it." But Pat and Line stood look- ing at each other, hands on hips, like a couple of gladiators. Then, almost at the same moment, they slipped out of their palls and became themselves again "You all right, darling?" asked t h e dishevelled Patrice Wymore. L 1 n a nodded, feeling for bruises. "O,K, but if we have to do it once more the Technicolor cameras will record me as one big black and blue mark." The two ladies went oft; arm in arm, chattering and laughing. The director wiped his brow. LFA RM FRONT 6121well;, Here's an idea that Canada :might very well borrow — and Copy—from our neighbors to the immediate South. An editorial in l'he Farm Journal, published in hiladelphia, tells all about it. * * * This November will see the start of a new, nation-wide con- tinuous effort to exterminate the filthy and destructive rat. No, Nits won't be exterminated in one month, or year; but in time they can be reduced to rarity, and, if completely eradicated, all Fe better. No dirtier nor more angerous wild beast lives than he rat, and to eliminate his kind ivii8 make this a cleaner, health- ier, more prosperous America. * * * Two reasons prompt this cru- sade. Warfarin, the new chem- urgic poison, makes it easily pos- sible to kill all the rats wherever it Is used. Child, woman, or man can do it by following simple directions. That's one reason— the fact that the tool is now at hand. The otlier reason is that unless rats (and mice, which war- farin also kills) are eliminated, thousands of farmers are going to Le penalized in the near future when they offer contaminated. grain for sale. Clean-up now is urgent. is • * This 'November is the chosen time. In late fall rats move from the fields to barns and cribs for shelter and abundant food. Farm- ers can fmd the few minutes necessary. Of course, November can be only the beginning. You may clean up your farm, and later find a new supply of rats moving in from your neighbor's. You will have to keep giving them bait. Meanwhile, organiza- tion and social pressure will be urging your neighbor to kill his own rats. Whole neighborhoods will become rat -free. * * Here is a leadership oppor- tunity in every community, 4-H „Flubs, F,F.A, chapters, Farm Bureau groups, Granges, Legions, women's clubs, churches — any kind of society or organization can undertake to achieve a rat - less community. Any individual who takes care of his own prem- ises can urge and help his neigh- bors to look after theirs. Even- tually no one will want to be the poor kind of neighbor who har- bors rats to spread over other people's premises. * * Forehanded farmers, of course, long since learned that a rat has to have a place to hide. On their farms you will find that con- crete, sheet steel and hardware cloth protect the places where rats can enter buildings. You land "Bugs" August is vacation time in England and these eople seem to be enjoying the sunshine at Brighton. However, hey take some time to gaze up at the helicopter that throws bug -like shadow over the beach "bugs„ at southern England's MOUE resort, $ r, Why So Glum?—You'd never know it, but Herbert J. Idle, 55, just won $307,500 for winning first place in the Unicorn Press puzzle quiz contest. The Bureau of Internal Revenue told Idle he'll be allowed to keep about $82,500 of the total, which ac- counts for his dour look, will find lumber and pipe stacked 18 inches above ground, feed sacks, corncribsand grain up on stilts, and no rubbish piles left for rats nurseries. Every farm should have a rat -exclusion pro- gram. It may make rat -killing unnecessary. But probably 'not 10% of farm buildings are rat - proof now. * * One rat costs $2 a year for the feed he eats and destroys: He is likely to contaminate at least another $20 worth. Each rat in a grain storage for a year sheds about a million hairs, and voids about 10,000 droppings and u gallon of urine. As many as 10,- 000 lice have been found on a single rat. They carry fleas and mites. One pair or rats may raise 50 more rats in a year. For every rat you see there are probably ten or a dozen more you don't see. * * * Towns and cities have plenty of rats too. The extermination war will have to reach into the streets, alleys, store -houses, and slums. Town dumps are bad of- fenders, for they provide concen- tration centersfrom which rats can spread out over farms that have been cleaned up, If your farm community eradicates its rats, your town will easily be made to see that it must do as well, • * * When enough people get to thinking about the costs, the filthiness, and the dangers of hav- ing rats on their premises, to tol- erate the beasts will become thoroughly unpopular. When everyone learns how easy it is to destroy all their rats with warfarin, they will wonder why anyone should permit a rat to live, As this column remarked a few months ago, no self-respect- ing person will any more think of allowing rats on the place than a housewife will rest when she finds bedbugs in the house, NO SALE A crusty old Arkansas farmer was approached one Clay by an eager young salesman who was peddling a set of books on scient- ific agriculture. The old farmer was a difficult prospect. "What de I want them thing for?” he scowled. "If you had these books, sir," the salesman pointed out, "you could farm twice as good as you do now," "Hell's bells, son," roared the old farmer, "I don't farm half as good as I know hew now."

The Kentucky Rosebud had campaigned against the best in the world, . and was credited with a knockout victory over peerless George Dixon, feather- weight champion of the world. However, Johnson was a young- er man ' and the rumor's flew thick and fast that the Rosebud was on his way down the ladder after a long and creditable car- eer, It was a battle between a man coming up and a man going down. Or was it? On the night of the fight, the little Broadway Athletic Club was jammed to the rafters with a wildly excited crowd, Every- one present was eager to see how the younger and stronger Johnson would make out against the more experienced Kentucky Rosebud: From the opening bell the men began to mix it fiercely. The fight was not only a matter of victory but there was also . a question of prestige to settle be- tween them.' The first round was even, 80 far as the spectators could deter- mine. Each man . gaveand re- ceived territfic punishment. The second round was a replica of the first as the men stood toe to toe, neither giving an inch. In the third round, the Kentucky Rosebud brought the crowdto its feet as he sent in telling blows that had his younger and mere vigorous opponent stagger- ing around the ring. The crowd howled for the kill, As usual, the older man had won the favor,of the sports fans through his abili- ty, in spite of their doubts, to cope with Johnson. The bell rang for the fourth round. John Henry Johnson, quick to revive froth the punish- ment, came out dancing. Cocky and sure of himself, he was de- termined to regain mastery of the situation. His older opponent met him in the center of the. ring, feinted once, and then caught him with a terrific blow to the chin, Johnson dropped to the canvas, then gamely strug- gled to his feet. The Kentucky Rosebud was ready for him, Be danced in and shot over another left, then a right cross. Down went Johnson again. This time the referee counted ten over his prostrate form. Again the Kentucky Rosebud had proved to skeptics that he could take the ring with anyone. Again he showed that he was still' a leading featherweight no matter how much people thought he had slipped. Had he not just licked John Henry Johnson, one of the toughest lit- tle men around? That should teach any other young upstairs that there was still plenty of kick in the old boy! Nothing unusual about the fight, you say? Well, there was plenty about the fight between John Henry Johnson and Walter Edgerton that was different. For example, John Henry Johnson, the young upstart, a mere .box- ing youth, was forty-five years old. The veteran, winner by a knockout in four rounds,." Walter Edgerton, the Kentucky Rose- bud, was on the. night he fought, exactly sixty-three years of age!

Titus 3:14 RSV, The letter to Titus was Writ- ten by .Paul during the lilted= between his , release'from his -first imprisonment and,hia reimprison- metr}}t, The *Epistle shows that Paul had recently been with Titus in Crete • and ha U left him there in ge9eral, charge et the churches upon the island, and with authority to appoint elders in every'aity. Titus was of Greek parentage and was One of Paul's converts as evidenced by his call- ing him ,"my true child • after a common faith" (1:4 ASV). From Galatians. and 2 Corinthians we • learn that Titus had accompa- nied Paul to thecouncil at Jeru- salem and was later sent by Paul on two missions to Corinth. Paul was certain that works wouldn't save a pian, He was certain that . all men must be saved by grace alone. But Pani was also ..positive that wicked men were not a part of God's Kingdom! Paul had much to say about doctrine; but he also kept insisting that the Church:' have something more than doctrine: "Adorn the doctrine of God in all things." It wasn't enough to be right about regeneration and the renewing of the Holy Ghost. Pau] added other .words to. these: • "Be discreet, chaste,— sober-minded — showing thyself s pattern of good workst'- sound speech, that cannot be. condemned ` -- not stealing, but showing all fidelity - speak evil -of no man -- be no brawlers - avoid :Foolish ques- tions, and genealogies, and con- tentions." Many a man has been brought to Christ who knew nothing of doctrines but who saw Christ in the life of someone he knew. "I - never have believed your doc- trine, but I cannot withstand your good spirit." said an unbe- liever to his Christian neighbour. "You can seldom break a man's heart with a theological state- ment," says Lon Woodrum, "but you can break it with love out of another world." Jesus made His doctrines burn and sing with meaning when they spiked. Him to a cross, and He forgave them. When the doctrine is adorned with spiritual living it is a lovely thing. . .:v In Hot Spot—Sidi Moulay Mo- hammed Ben Arefa is the new religious leader of Morocco, re- placing his uncle, Sultan Sidi Mohammed Ben Youseff, Arab nationalist leaders, caught off guard by France's buster of the sultan, quickly recovering from the surprise move, order his fol- lowers to fight, as tension heightens in Rubat, ]r: lends Ear r to Ducky idea—Cindy, the dog, lends one of his shaggy ears to the latest wise quack of Daffy, who thinks a dip might help them both beat the heat.
