Subscription rales, year, in adyance. copies, 5 cents. 52.00 a Single Don't Bo a Slacker Newark residents, along with the citizens of the entire nation, have a big jo b t o do. Not just a few individuals, or most of us— b u t every single one of us. As a peace-loving people we walked the tight-rope of a questionable neutrality, and though most of us knew it meant war we w ent along wishfully pushing reality aside. A fter going on that basis for so long it is h ard to change our habit patterns overnight even though war has been plumped directly into our laps. Now we not only have to think and talk of all-out efforts— we have to GO all out— -each a n d every one of us. W e have had to m a k e few or no sacrifices, but that is all past now. W e n o t only face war, we have war, the greatest in our history, the greatest that ever confronted any nation on the face of the earth— with enemies all around us, in the sky above us, in the sea beneath us, and possibly in our very m idst. It is the duty of every one of us to do as much as be or she can, if these enemies are to be defeated. We cannot possibly m a k e the' sacrifices that our men are making in the fighting lines, even should they survive the struggle. But we can b ack them up to tbe limit, and do it eagerly, a n d cheer-, fully.’ There are m a n y ways in which we ought to be serving now. O ne is to support the Red Cross W ar Relief Drive to the lim it of our ability. A rcadia’s quota of t h e '50 million fund sought is $6,840, nearly as much as the entire Commu nity Chest budget. Everyone will have to give heavily to make the goal— b u t we cannot and will not fail. Another, if it has not already been done, is .to volunteer as a blood donor to furnish life-saving plasma for the armed forces, and for civilians in the event of bombings. A quota of 500 donors was set for Newark before the nation was attacked. There are no quotas now. The Red Cross needs as much of this precious fluid as it can obtain. Every person in normal health should volunteer his blood donation at once by telephoning R e d Cross headquarters, 106. There will also be a place for all sorts of volunteer serv- ives. M en are w anted as air observers, air raid wardens, fire defense and other activities. ' ' W o m en too, have a big part to play. They are respon sible through nutrition in the homes for health preparedness. There are also m any opportunities for them in the work of the Red Cross. T h e A rcadia Branch of the W ayne County Chapter will be. organized at a meeting this Friday at 2:30 in the High School cafeteria. All women who can possibly attend-should be on hand. A m ong ways in which' they can participate “in the R e d Cross program are? Sewing, knitting, bandaging, first aid, m o tor corps, nurses aides. — Buy Defense Bonds — A - D A L E C A R N E G I E MAKE HIM SELL HIMSELF Recently a num b e r of life insurance salesmen gave a luncheon in the Pittsburgh district. After luncheon, the men began to talk about the ‘‘toughest customer they had ever gone up against. They agreed the hardest-boiled • egg of all was a Dr. Brownee—the most contrary human that had ever irritated people on this planet. ... If they said “It’S iblack,\ he would say “It’s white.” One of the salesmen sat listening quietly. His name: Ross P. Roberts, 3336 Browns ville Road, Pittsburgh, Pa. Well, Mr. Roberts is a psychol ogist as well as a seller of the insurance. An \ idea popped into his head as to 'how tb approach the obtuse debtor. He garnered all the infor mation possible. He learned that the doctor, was young, married, had two daughters, and was devoted to his fam ily. That was ammunition. The . next day he called up the girl in the doctor’s- office and sfld fiF washed Tb see the doctor when he was least tousy. The gtel ^al^^heTBist' time would be just .'before t t e doc tor would .be,leaving the of- ■ Hoe for the flltqrnoon. ’When Mr. Roberts arrived, he reminded the girl he was the one she toad talked to aver the telephone. The girl, with- °“t asking 'his business, went ln to seb tRe doctptTahd ip a moment, Mfr. Roberts'was usto- ei’ed into the doctor’s private office. r-iNdw-Tit'’ was .sink or swim. . He tojd the doctor he was an insurance broker. Instant ly, the doctor bristled. Now Mr. Roberts began on the plan hp had laid: he ■iyould tajce advantage of the doctor^ trait o f opposing peo-‘ P|e. He gsk,ed a few questions about the doctor, and then be gan trying to conyince the pnysiciaii hhgt fie should not take any. h ie Ihgpranbe. Said the doctor, “If you have ■Jbl line tri tpnvc mrmpv t.rv al your death, there is no reason why you should carry any in surance. As you know, it will only be an added burden.\ The doctor looked \at him somewhat curiously, but made no reply. His most potent weapon-was gone: opposition. Finally, he said: “I haven’t a cent of insurance. If I died today,’ my estate would not last my family three years.\ Mr. Roberts*, said: “The chances-are yt§- jyiU bye to accumulate $20,000 or $30,000. Then you will have enough.\... “Suppose I don’t?” asked the. doctor- - Mr, Roberts said: “If in your opinion you do .need insurance, I’ll be pleased to take care of it for you.” Well, right then and there, Mr. Roberts wrote the doctor a policy for $15,600* ---- He had accomplished some thing wtere all the other in surance men had failed be cause he Had capitalized on the doctor’s extreme love- of opposing an interviewer. He had made the doctor the sales man; had made the\ doctor convince him that he needed the insurance. If you have p “tough” cus tomer why don’t you-try the same method on him? Make . him sell himself. —B?y Defense Bonds— — 0—— ------ Christmas Not Mentioned Christmas -is not mentioned in the Bible.

But when war. comes, as it has now come for us, the people of that nation want to know “Who are our leaders?” “Who are these men to whom we have entrusted the- lives pf our soldiers and. sailors,! Hubby,” faces his first serious test as commander in chief of the U. S. fleet. • Only §9 years old, he was appointed to his Bloomer present position over the heads of 46 admirals during President Roosevelt’s reorganization of the navy last February. He is a native of Kentucky. In 1915, when he was 33, he was Roose velt’s aide when the latter, then assistant secretary of the navy, the safety of our homes, our sue- ' toured the Pacific coast.

In the present turmoil, of the nations, let ug remember JsaiaiVs proph ecy and the promise that “the zeal of Jehovah o. hosts” will uphold the kingdom of God.

He was in command of the cruisers of the battle force when promoted to sons of God and received power to do all good. • Above all, Jesus is the revela tion of God’s lov.e—that men may have life. Certainly if God so loves us. we should love one another. It would be tragic in deed for any man to try .to ap propriate God’s love to himself alone. That would be a sure way to lose God’s love. That love Is revealed to us, not for ourselves alone but that it may be • revealed and ministered through us unto others. Let us remember the last verse of the lesson text this Christmas sea son.H o w better could we cele brate the birthday of Jesus than to be ministers of God’s love un to those who are in need?. —Bay Defease Bonds— IN HEALTH By ARTIE McGOVERN Exercise Precaution While Reducing Strenuous exercise is always dangerous, b\ut it is particularly so to the person who is extreme ly overweight. Where serious attempts are being made to re duce, the exercise routine must be arranged withthe greatest of care. Obesity of itself puts an extra burden on the heart and it is most unwise to add more work to an already overtaxed organ, Roy most excessively fat people, walking is simplest and easiest. Rut even here one must be cagtious. Walk only a few blocks for a. starter. At the end of each week, tfie distance may be increased a little until one is able ‘td coyer a mile or more without any sense of fatigue or strain. Some mild abdominal ’setting-up exercises may be in cluded ih the routine—subject, of course, to the approval of your physician.
