There is a regulation in the British navy that forbids officers to speak dis-l couragingly to their comrades con: ecrning any enterprise that they may he engaged in. The authorities realize what a depressing effect is produced when anybody speaks in a dishearten- (‘tl way about the efforts they are un- ~' ' kin . ' , dtxdsinggle man who talks in a dis- courugud way about an existing situa- tion can do more harm than an attack from :. pmverful enemy. The man who says, "It. can't be done" is the enemy of i \try naval and military force, and h must be silenced or eliminated if n I dy of men are to accomplish re- Bulltuis the same in civic life.

The trouble is that, in the labyrinth of new books. a reader is rather dazed about which few to per- use. Newspaper editors sense this. and the old-time book review depart- ment is returning to favor. Windows. The census shows America has over three and a half million widows. You'd vhax’e lost money if you had been bet- ting on the total without knowing it. How many of those widow's and. their children were left amply provid- ed for when the man or the house passed on? 7 Most husbands and fathers do. a m FOR TAT * "isomsoiimmemma semen fairly good Job, at providing for their families, on this side of the grave.
