The public relief load has increased almost 100 per cent in number of per- sons, and more than 400 per cent in cash cost to the Federal government in the last year, records of the Federal Emergency Relief Administration re- vealed. Its a cinch that people will positive- ly not work unless they must. Just as | long as Uncle Sam continues to pro- vide, men will not even do work, much less seek it. GOING PLACES The New Deal for pure streams seems to be on its way. Governor Earle assigned a live wire to the Sanitary Water Board in Grover C. Ladner. A stream pollution bill drafted by him was introduced in the Senate and im- mediately referred to the committee on Forests and Waters WHERE IT WON'T BE PICKLED AS IN FORMER YEARS. There are 37 streams in Pennsyl- vania in which $50,000 worth of our game fish were killed by polluters be- tween May and October of 1934. An enactment of such a law will give us pure streams in Pennsylvania and to us it looks as though the present administration is “going places.” LENTEN THOUGHTS The fundamental thought of the church season of Lent would seem to be that people should repent of their sins.. The modern world does not like the word “sin.” But nothing is more evident than that the world is full of offenses against God and man. People trample on the weak, they abuse the bodies that God has given them, they are dishonest and crooked. Man has grown no wings as yet. Whether or not he conforms to the Lenten custom, it will do him no harm to take a little time and re- view his life. He will find plenty of things of which he should repent, and he will be happier if he does. THEY TOO, SEE IT The Bulletin has from time to time called attention to the fact that “relief is more of a racket” than a relief. Here's an editorial from a Democratic news- paper: “Our opposition neighbor has just discovered that “relief is a racket.” This newspaper has been saying so for months. Whenever the records show that 6,500 families in Lancaster county are on relief, direct or indirect, it is patent that relief as administered to- day is a fraud. It will continue to be a fraud until Governor George H. Earle gets time to reorganize it and then watch the fur fly and the chiselers with it.” UNDERWORLD BUSINESS Investigation of the policy racket in New York City is revealing some astounding evidence as to the mag- nitude of the profits of what may be called the underworld’s big business. J. Richard Davis, the attorney for Dutch Schultz, when Schultz headed the policy racket, testified that the policy racket in the five borough did a gross weekly business in 1931 and 1932 of $2,000.000 a week. He esti- timated the current “take” at much higher figure, at least double and perhaps five times as much. Investigations have come and gone in New York City, without touching the higher-ups. It remains to be seen whether the current enquiry will come to a like end. An under- world, it must be plain to a blind man, does not reap a “take” of mil- lions a week from the policy racket without a lot of higher-ups, to say nothing of uns~pulous lawyers, being in on the split. SPRING IN BUSINESS The stock market always expects a “spring rice” in the value of securi- tiess. In the spring season, more people go to work on farms and the construction jobs, more is paid out in wages. people are able to buy more, and business becames more active. We are now close to the time of year when these things happen. The reople should get ready for them. They should look forward with the Heartiest Congratula- tions From Us Subscription Price $1.50 Per Year!

THE MOUNT JOY BULLETIN, MOUNT JOY, LANCASTER CO., PA. | N\ 3 N\ NN \ 3 HEN you plan your menu for a St. Patrick’s Day luncheon, supper-party, or aven a family meal on March 17th —bear in mind that these must be no ordinary, everyday foods. St. Patrick was no ordinary person, if we are to believe legends con- cerning his life. Some of the less well known of these legends are as fascinating as the oft-told tale of his routing the snakes from Ireland. There is the story of St. Patrick as a little lad. Playing in the snow one cold winter's day, he managed to break loose some small lumps of ice. He hurried home to show them to his nurse, of whom he was very fond. She came grumbling into the room saying surely to goodness he could have spent his time more profit- ably by bringing in a bit of wood for the fire instead of cold ice which would soon melt and mess up the whole place. St. Patrick felt very sad to have displeased his nurse, so he spread his little hands over the lumps of ice, and lo! they suddenly burned into a roaring bonfire. More Magic At another time the old nurse fell ill, and lying limply em her bed she begged for a pot of honey. Nothing else in the world would help her, she said. But no honey could be found in the whole of the village. Little Patrick took a pitcher of water, and by passing his hands over it, changed it into the finest honey — food which saved the old woman's life. Let us see if we can borrow a little of this magic, and pass our hands over everyday foods in such a way as to turn them into mira- cles of goodness worthy to be served in the name of good St. Pat. Green foods, of course, to keep his memory green, and to have the charm of his native isle. Garnished with Green—and Good The following dishes have been selected because they are festive enough for any of your parties, and at the same time delicious enough for whatever meal you wish to serve them: ¢ Sardine Egg Cups: Hard-cook eight eggs, peel, cut in halves and remove the yolks. Mash well, add two tablespoons of melted butter, two tablespoons of lemon juice and four tablespoons of mayonnaise. Mix thoroughly, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Re- move the skin and bones from one ENCHANTING FOODS FOR ST. PATRICK'S DAY 31%-ounce can of sardines (or use a 4-ounce can of the skinless, boneless variety). Mash and add to the egg yolk. Pile lightly back into the egg cups, decorate tops with capers, slices of stuffed olive or tiny strips of green pepper. Chill thoroughly. Arrange on a large platter decorated with water- cress. This serves eight persons. Green Gage Mousse: Remove the stones from two 8-ounce cans of green gage plums and press the plums through a sieve. Add one- third cup sugar and one-fourth cup corn syrup. Boil for about two minutes. Soften two teaspoons gelatin in two tablespoons cold water, and dissolve in the hot syrup. Cool. Add one-fourth cup lemon juice, and, when it begins to set, fold in one and one-half cups of beaten cream. Tint green. Pack in a melon mold and freeze in a mixture of salt and ice. Or freeze in refrigerator trays. This serves eight persons. St. Patrick’s Cocktail: Combine the contents of one No. 2 can of pineapple juice, one-half cup of honey and two cups of sweet cider. Chill well. Put a green mint cherry in each tall slim glass, fill with crushed ice and pour in the cocktail. Top with a sprig of fresh mint. This fills eight glasses.* If we all take hold of our work with a will, we shall get this spring rise in business, in addition to the tremendous impulse which soon will be given by all the projects for which the government is spending money. THE BLUSTERER Though his role in the play of the months is that of the lion, March, on the word of no less authority than the poets themselves, does more than roar. William Morris, looking the rough mien of March and undis- mayed by his mighty voice, wrote: Slayer of the winter, art thou here again? O welcome, thou summer night! The bitter wind makes not the vie- tory vain, Nor will we mock thee for the faint blue sky. And when but “in the wild March- morning” did Tennyson hear the trees begin “to whisper?” The poets, of course, are not al- ways first among the realists. They have, nevertheless the gift. of looking beneath the surfaces and seeing the things hidden from ordinary mortals eyes. So be not too sure that they are not right in what they say of this blustering fellow, March. Maybe winter is not yet done; maybe there are still rough winds, sharp with the that bring’st the hone and energy to new opportun- ities. they should work for the new ghropiness and new business, put in tor licks at their trade, advertise cold, ahead of us. But for all of such chances who does not leave the latchstring out for the rough old fellow who knows the secrets of the snow drops and the crocuses? beneath | THINGS ARE LOOKING UP Columbia merchants are making many changes and improvements in their stores, getting them in shape for Spring business, which is just around the corner. Among those who started various improvements during the past few days are the J. C. Pen- ney Co., who have rearranged their store, adding eight or nine new dis- play tables and installing several hinged artificial sash, on which cur- tain material may be displayed. The Haines Shoe Store is being improved thru the laying of a new floor, and the general rearrangement of their shoe stock, while Joseph Eichhorn, proprietor of Eichhorn’s Clothing Store is having the shelv- ing and suit racks on one side of his store moved back, adding more than thirty square feet to the floor space of the establishment. tt pm nl QF MRI CLASS MARKS OF PUPILS IN MILTON GROVE GRAMMAR The report of the class marks for the Milton Grove Grammar School for the month of February, 1935 are appended.

Starting Troubles Oils which thicken like cold molasses cause so much “drag” that your starter cannot snap the motor over. The right kind of motor oil enables cold motors to start easily these winter days. Sunoco 20-W flows freely even at zero. That's why it makes winter starting easier and gives instant, safe lubrication. Car manufacturers recommend 20-W.

The delegates at this meeting heard a number of interesting things. Among these was the statement by Charles Stelzle, New York ex- pert, to the effect that if churches do not advertise their “ware”— spiritual upbuilding and moral betterment for both the individual and humanity—they cannot hope to arouse interest among the mass- es and fulfill the obligations plac- ed upon them as parties to the general spiritual movement. Another speaker declared that “advertising is greater than any single moral force we know of to- day. Advertising brings about changes for the betterment of life itself, changes which fuse into the social and political life of the na- ion.” It is now generally admitted by economic forces everywhere that advertising is the most important development of modern business. And it is also coming to be realiz- ed that newspaper advertising is the best kind of paid publicity. In the convention just mentioned the delegates who were advertising ex- perts, agreed that newspaper ad- vertising affords the best publicity medium for the churches and all church activities.
