Stalin Can Be Wrong
Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin came on strong Friday,
when in an interview, he predicted "only defeat for the
United States and Britain if they reject China's peace offers." 
But that remains to be seen. A great financier once
said, "The man who sells the United States short will go
broke every time." And while we admit these are days of
trial for our fighting forces, the great masters of American
production have been called, into council and action and assigned 
their tasks. Now the mighty power of America is being 
harnassed. So, it is too soon to sell the United States of
America short.
Again the Premier was wrong when he said "The Anglo-American 
generals and officers are not inferior fighting
men but these soldiers consider this war against Korea an
unjust war," and consequently the cause they are defending
is a very unpopular one. There we must dissent again. Our
men know they are not fighting Korea nor even China. They
know that they are not even fighting Russia. They are fighting 
Communism which has conquered Korea, conquered Russia, 
conquered China, and which is at war with America, with
the United Nations, with liberty, with Christianity, coldly
and intelligently seeking to wade through the blood of innocent 
men to absolute world domination.
But once again, we repeat, don't buy America short, because 
you'll lose everytime. Communism has very nearly,
but not quite, a 50-50 chance to go through to complete, irreversible 
victory, but it is a chance which grows less with
each day that passes.

The HEALTH
FORUM World
By DR. R. EARL BLAND
Intestinal obstruction is a condition 
in which the passageway of one
or mere portions of the intestines
is occulded and the normal movement 
of the contents entirely suspended. 
Through the interference
with the normal course of the feces

at any point, a number of severe
symptoms soon develop.
These generally begin suddenly
soon become several, and either
close spontaneously or, if not cured
by internal or surgical means, cause
the death of the patient.
The subjective symptoms are pain
nausea, vomiting, retention of gas
and feces. Pain constitutes the main
symptoms intestinal obstruction.
Vomiting is one of the most regular
symptoms of the disease.
In complete intestinal obstruction,
constipation is generally absolute
and continuous as long as the disease 
lasts. Neither faces Don gas
are passed; however, there may be
many noteworchy exceptions.
In all varieties of intestinal obstruction, 
the general condition of

the patient suffers greatly. Naturally 
there are differences in the several 
forms of obstruction. Age, constipation, 
and other factors have
their influences here as they do in
other conditions. To a certain extent, 
the degree of the shock indicates 
the site and perhaps the nature 
of the obstruction.
If the physician picture of obstructtion, 
is well developed and its course
can be followed from the outset, the
differential diagnosis from other
related conditions is rarely difficult.
If, however, the beginning be obsecure 
the symptoms not well-marked 
or complications present the diagnosis 
becomes very difficult.

MEALTIME MELODIES

"Humpty-Dumpty sat on a wall.
Humpty-Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king's horses and the king's
men couldn't put Humpty-Dumpty
together again." This rhyme still
has meaning for you. You know,
that fat little fellow who fell off
that wall was once an egg.
Eggs have an outstanding place in
our diet. About how many do you
eat a year? The average American
eats some 400 of them a year-more
than one a day. They are an excellent 
source of almost all food essentials. 
To be sure eggs run a close
second to milk for the little of natures 
most nearly perfect food.
There is more calcium by weight
in eggs than in milk in easily usable 
forms. They have twice as
much phosphorous and four times
more calorie value than milk. Eggs
are rich in iron and fat. They contain 
all the major vitamins except
ascorbic acid (Vitamin C. chiefly
in citrus fruits) and are especially
rich in Vitamin A and some members 
of the B. group.
Well, the Vitamin D. (sunshine
vitamin) content varies with the
food eaten by the hens that lay the
eggs and with the hen exposure to
sunlight. All commercially prepared 
chicken feeds have Vitamin D
so you can be certain, that eggs
sold under brand names contain it.
Since the egg is such a versatile
food yet so nutritious, it deserves
careful selection care and preparation. 
Are you sure you know how to
select eggs, care for you know and prepare 
and serve them?
You select eggs on the basis of
quality and size the sizes of eggs
really stand for weight. The quality 
of eggs in terms of grades are labeled 
on egg cartons Many states
have egg laws based on federal
standards of individual eng quality
to govern all commerical grading
arid candling you know. These are
U. S. Grades AA. A. B and C. Grades
AA and A are usually preferred for
cooking in the shell and coaching
lower Grades B and C instead of the
ton grades.
Large eggs usually cost more per
dozen than  ones For in
stance, 
if medium eggs weighing 21
ounces are 47 cents a dozen (2 1-4
cents an ounce), they are a better
buy than large weighing 24 ounces
at 60 cents a dozen (2 1-2 cents an
ounce).
The color of the egg shell depends
on the breed of the hen and does
not indicate the food value of the
egg. So do not pay a higher price
for white eggs than for brown ones
for vice versa). In some markets
shell color makes the price difference 
of as much as 5 to 10 cents a
dozen.
Now, if you study the size of eggs
in relation to price, you are using
economy. Especially in late summer
or early fall when pullets began
laying All sizes, with the exception
of weight, are equal in food value.
Of course there is a difference in
grading and candling eggs. You already 
know that grading is sorting
eggs for size and shell quality. Candling 
is testing the inside qualityof 
eggs The candler holds the eggs
up to a strong light so he can see
through the shell. In top grade eggs
he sees only a small amount of air
space and a well-centered yolk.
In lower-grade eggs, the air space
is larger and the yolk is off center.
The grade guarantees quality only
when eggs have been stored properly 
since candling. And the candling
is based on the degree of Moisture
loss that has taken place in the
egg.
Do you know that eggs stored at
room temperature of 70 to 80 degrees
lose as much freshness in four days
as eggs stored several weeks in a
refrigerator? But the eggs in a covered 
container in the refrigerator
Remove only as many as you will
use immediately. Wash eggs just before 
using them not before. The
shells, you know have a water-soluble 
coat that checks the tendency
of eggs, to a and flavors. 

You are thrifty to get the best
eggs and use them to your best advantages. 
Good fresh eggs stand tall
the white is thick, not runny, and
the yolk is firm. You may use eggs
for mergingue and other recipes that
require beaten eggs. At one time I
thought any egg could be beaten an
used for a meringue
Cook eggs over a low fire so they
can cook slowly and evenly. It's the
protein content that makes eggs
tough when they are cooked rapidly. 

There are 300 or more ways to
serve eggs. Besides eggs carry in
their golden hearts every food element 
the human body needs. The
golden protein dishes made with
eggs are happy choices when meat,
poultry and fish take a holiday from
your table!

HEADLINES & BYLINES

"A man whose heart is stayed upon 
God is just the same in the hour
of his most afflicting trials and
most discouraging surroundings as
when ht was in prosperity, when the
light and favor of God seemed to
be upon him."—From: Thoughts
From The Mount Of Blessing by
Mrs. E. G. White.
We do not usually think of a
sports broadcaster as being spiritually 
minded. Still,
we have to admit
that, we saw in
this morning's
Commerical Appeal 
under Lenten 
Guideposts,
the headline.
"Your Disposition 
a Deciding 
Factor in
Shaping Destiny."
by 'Red' Barber.
Toward the end
of his article, be
wrote: "In a very real sense the
teachings in the Bible are inseparably 
tied with this matter of human 
disposition. This indicates
that the "Old Reached" is much
more spiritually minded than we
may have thought.
This article set me thinking anew
on some matters which fly through
this wandering mind of mine. And,
I would like to call your attention
to one of them: true accomplishments 
come only from the overcomeing 
of obstacles.
As illustrations of this point. I
cite the following: Joe Williams, the
Scripps-Howard sports columnist,
wrote that he would not go out on
the limb for a fighter until after he
had seen a knock down. Also, be
claimed in the same piece that he
needed to know how a horse ran after 
he was passed by another horse
before he would go for him.
Moreover, he wrote of Alley Reynolds 
in the opening game of the
1949. World Series as follows: "Nine
times he has found himself behind
the hitter in the dangerous 3-2 situation. 
When he didn't come out of
it with a strikeout he managed to
get by without gaping wounds and
always without a score against him.
Only once did he slip, even so slight

ly, and then one of the old pros
Joe Dimaggio, going out far to his
left brought down a potential triple
from Jackie Robinson's bat–the
best hit ball any of the Brooks
contributed all afternoon, by the
way."
In addition, "Memphis Bill Terry 
that series:" One player on the
Broklyn club that deserves all the
credit and praise you can give him
is Campanella. It is a pleasure to
see him catch and until the ninth
inning yesterday he was still hustling 
and giving his best for a lost
cause."
"Red" Barber writes in today's
article: In fact, the disposition of
a pitcher can offer be most accurately 
measured by watching how
he pitches when he is behind and
is apparently pitching for a losing
cause. Baseball scouts will not make
up their minds on young pitcher
in the Miner Leagues until they see
how he pitches when he is getting
beat."
So, it seems as clear as crystal
that the above experts stake a great
deal on the performances done under 
adverse conditions. And indeed,
it is equally true in the physical
world; for every measuring energy
unit with which I am familiar is
expressed directly or indirectly, in
terms of the opposition overcome.
Finally, such is the main tenet of
the Christian religion; for Jesus
said: "In the world ye shall have
tribulation; but be of good cheer:
I have overcome the world." Keep
in mind that He told his disciples
this on the eve of His darkest hour;

that is, the hour of His crucification.
Then, we as Christians need to emulate 
Him and keep our hearts stayed 
upon God even in the dark days
of adversity.

SHORT TALKS

Simply an observance of these
words of Lincoln would cause 'Brotherhood 
to become a reality in today's 
world There would be differences, 
yes, but genuine respect
for differences. No two brothers
were ever alike in every respect but
it is naturally that they love each
other.
Einstine says. 'We must not only
tolerate differences between individuals 
and between groups, but we
should indeed welcome them and
look upon them as an enriching of
our existence. That is the essence
of all true tolerance without tolerance 
in this widest sense there can
be no question of the true morality."
It is important to remember the

true meaning of "Brotherhood" at
home, at work, at play. Each person's 
load would be a little lighter
because we would remember that we
are our brother's keeper, both materially 
and spiritually we would
share his load.
Speaking of "load" never was
there a heavier load than that of
hate, resentment, envy, malice and
of all the others that seem to gnaw
at the very heart strings and are
capable of deteriorating both mind
and body. It is only in loving that
we really know what love is and in
forgiving that we are forgiving.
Because Lincoln loved truth, he
became a martyr. He likewise became 
a big brother to all men who
love truth honesty and fair play. It
is said when he died a by-stander
said: "Now he belongs to the ages!"

MART OF THOUGHT
I am remotely concerned with
everything that affects humanity,
and most concerned with that
which touches me directly. Nothing 
is of more importance than
the source of livelihood, and mine
is earned from one of the brainchildren 
of the greatest man I
know, Dr. Joseph Edison Walker.
History and holidays remind us
of many great men and we reverse
them but here is a man who lives
in our time. I sometimes think that
because we walk and talk daily with
this illustrious man we tend to take
him for granted and thus lose
awareness of his greatness.
You know, it is said that many
have passed the Great Stone race
and it was just another mass of
rock to them because they looked
either when they were too far
away or too close to it. One must
be just the right distance for the
lines of the face to stand out so
clearly that the face looks almost
human.
Think of the people who have
missed this wonder of the by not
looking from just the right angle.
Maybe we have beer too close to
our remarkable leader. I have
much respect for him who with his
many committments never fails to
recognize us. He was most generous
With his congratulations and encouraging 
words to me for the recognition 
I received last week.
Dr. Walker stands tall in the
business world. He is a man so tall
that he casts a shadow of economic
security in nine states. I am most
grateful that he stands between me
and the sweltering sun of unemployment. 
So come on and "Doff
Ya Derby" with me if you please,
to this man who lives in our time
and resides in our town.

TRASH NOT TOO
"TRASHY."
Mrs. Ray R. Hartless, 
Jr. was delighted when three
young men came to the door to buy
waste paper. She gave them a collection 
of waste paper and boxes
and would accept nothing for it,
declaring. "I'm glad to get rid. of
it." Included however, she discovered 
later, was a box containing
her daughter's beige lace wedding
gown. Her daughter, Shirley, 19,
had to buy a new gown for her early 
February wedding.

BROTHERHOOD WEEK
—Robert Freeman, THE HEATHEN.
At this time of new bloodshed and terrible crisis the need for
tolerance and understanding, of man for man seems to me far
greater importance than ever. Brotherhood Week deserves the
enthusiastic support of all true Americana.
—Hanson W. Baldwin, Military Analyst.
There is a destiny which makes us brothers;
None goes his way alone.
—Edwin Markham, A CREED.
Whoever degrades another degrades me,
And whatever is done or said returns at last to me.

Almost any mother can think of a good reason why her son
should not be in the armed services.
The Chinese Communists, it seems, fight wars without modern
conveniences.

Seems Like We're Getting Cleaner
American have just chalked up a new record for cleanliness.
Production of automatic water heaters, bathtubs, and many other
types of plumbing fixtures are setting a new record.
More than 2,300,000 automatic gas-fired water heaters were
manufactured and sold in 1950 as compared with 1,800,000 in 1947,
the industry's previous peak year.
Production of bathtubs in 1950 for the first time in history exceeded 
two million units. In fact, a total of 2,290,000, were made and
shipped as compared with 1,475,743 in 1949 and 1,899,994 in 1948
which was the best year up to that time.
The output of lavatories and water closet bowls and tanks also
set new records in 1950. A total of 3,500,000 lavatories, 3,900,000,
water closet bowls, and 3,500,000 flash tanks were shipped by manufacturers 
in 1950.
The record output of many types of plumbing fixtures in 1950
enabled the plumbing industry to take care of the requirements of the
largest building program in the country's history. Many thousands of
fixtures were used in modernization work such as the replacement of
obsolete equipment and the installation of additional bathrooms and
powder rooms.
Here is Mrs.
Hurd's own statement: 
"I had
aches and pains
for quite some

time. They sure made me feel bad.
I didn't feel like doing anything. My
appetite wasn't good and I was
run-down. I heard about HADACOL is
over the radio and decided I wanted 
to try it. That's just what I did
— bought a bottle and began taking
it. After the second bottle I began
to feel better. I have now taken 12
bottles and can truthfully say that
HADACOL has certainly helped me.
I have a good appetite and no longer 
feel run-down. I have more energy 
and my aches and pains have
been greatly relieved. HADACOL is
certainly wonderful. I just can't
praise it enough."
