The of "Christ In' Bronze" is a from the far novel of the same name by Yoshiro Nugnyo. It tells the story of tire 17lh century persecution of Christians by the To- kugawa Hhogunate, the then mil-! ilary of Japa.n.

These Shoguns felt that Christianity was weakening Japan and that this was part of a plan for cnn- quest by some foreign power.

Holle, Commissioner of Health, one-third of these deaths could have been prevented by earlier detection and prompt treatment. On this basis 3,126 Texans needlessly died ol cancer in 1955, because proper treatment was begun loo late. There are some encouraging aspects in the fight against cancer. Deaths from that disease among women in the United Slates have declined more than ten per cent in the past ten years. Many thousands could be Eaved if men and women would have a complete physical examination an ordeal which weakens him to once a year.

NETHERLANDS SENDS THANKS JIOBOKEN, -N. J. --UP-- The Netherlands government sent a token of thanks to the United States Monday for the flood aid it gave to the Dutch three years ago. The Holland-America Liner Noordam docked here with .9,600 young trees and a large number of shrubs to help beautify the six northeastern states ravaged by floods last year. UMBLE WTOR on is the motor oil Uniflo was The first multiple-grade molar oil offered fo motorists Now, a new formula marks an outstanding improvement in this outstanding oil.

Trvly, New-Formula Unitlolt motor oil beyond compare. Compounded like a Prescription In the new formula, Humble first refines a premium-price crude oil in one of the world's most modern refineries to produce the base stock for Humble Uniflo. But no oil by itself meets all the requirements of modern automobile engines. So Humble researchers, working with the care of a pharmacist preparing a prescription, have used a new formula to compound Unifio's base stock with special chemical additives that give Humble Uniflo special qualities. These make New-Formula Uniflo the motor oil beyond compare.

You Profit from Using New-Formula Uniflo in Your Car First, you use the one grade of Uniflo the whole year around--winter and summer. It is recommended for every SAE number from SAE 10W through SAE 30! Second, Uniflo is such a superior lubricant that you cut friction wear in your car's engine to a minimum: the engine lasts longer and runs better. Third, Uniflo so effectively reduces "motor oil drag" that your car's engine uses the power in your gasoline more efficiently. You get more power and improved gasoline mileage. Finally, Uniflo is, of course, an HD (Heavy Duty) oil, anti- acid, detergent, a superior lubricant and cooling agent I I I A See dealer in your neighborhood for a quick change to New-formula Humble I --the motor oil beyond compare.
