Folks, let's jump over to our man, Teddy Kegstad. You can read Teddy's Outstanding Tiger Forex Report every Monday. He comes out with that report. He has updates that fall throughout the week. You can check it out on the front page of TFNN, folks, the Tiger Forex Report. And let's just jump right into it. Teddy Kegstad, good morning. Good morning, Tommy, and good morning, little Tommy. You say hi. You say hi to Teddy. Hi, Teddy. Hi, Teddy. Oh, he's watching some truck videos, Teddy. He's deep in it right now. So we'll just talk some forex, but there he goes. You see? You see? Look it. There you are. And wait, you say hi to Teddy? You say hi? Yeah. So Teddy, where do you want to start things off, man? Well, I can say the dollar is kind of a mixed bag of goods this week. So right now it's actually under pressure since probably the last 10 minutes or so. But it's really a mixed bag of goods.  So the Japanese yen is kind of going sideways right now. The euro, I would say, is pretty much the only one that's showing some strength. They're trying to buffer its highs and maybe try and break out to the upside. And I think a lot of that has to do because the ECB is expected to do at least a half a point raise now over the next two meetings. So considering that there's already a half a point figured in for our Fed over the next two to three meetings, I think that that's probably where you're seeing a little strength in the euro US dollar right now. If we could jump to the yen, I was reading earlier, I had an article pulled up and let me see if I can find it, but it was talking about, yeah, from Bloomberg, that the Bank of Japan even owns more than 100% of some of the debt as bonds go round and round. And they're talking about here, you know, that eventually, and we've talked about it in terms of a new governor coming in there. But pretty interesting when you look at it, Teddy, that they're even talking about that basically they own more than 100%, right? They buy it, they lend it out and they buy it back again. They're such a buyer in that market. Where, I guess, and when do you see that yen potentially changing? Cause I got it up here with bumping up game maybe against the upper boundary of a potential channel, but quite a pullback from the highs we've had recently in the end. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I would say that you're gonna probably see most action in the yen probably after April going into May. So we have to get the transition for the new Bank of Japan chairman. Once he's in place, I think that you're going to see that the biggest thing is that we know that the policy of the Ministry of Finance and the BOJ is starting to change, which is something that it hasn't done in a very, very long time. So once we have this turnover of leadership, which will happen in April, I think you'll start to see it impact the markets come May and June for sure when it comes to the yen and yen crosses. So they're meeting probably a lot of a little bit of yen strength as well. So and I would see the long term right now that the US dollar yen and the yen versus other pairs is gonna start to become very bullish for the Japanese yen. Now this is relative to how it's been behaving for the past year and a half. You gotta realize that we're in a very big trend where the yen has gotten beaten up for a very long time. So for us to bounce the way we're doing right now, it's a nice correction. And I think what it's gonna do is we'll see how this turnover happens in the spring and we'll see if we're gonna either base and start to kind of pull back meaning yen strength or is what's had what they've been doing for decades gonna come back to haunt them. Time will tell with that one. So but I think it's gonna be where you're gonna see short-term yen strength once you get to the springtime period. Boy, one of the charts they have in this article on Bloomberg was just talking about they have a chart of their securities lending on one, just talking about trillions of yen and the spike recently in the last basically four years is off the charts. And then they talk about the government bond and purchases and you know, same deal over the last three or four years, man, compared to I think this they have it starting at about 2005 or something like that. Nothing like it in terms of what they've been doing for government bond purchases and the securities lending is up to over eight trillion yen, which just dwarfs anything on that chart. And then you look at where they're 10 year. I mean, what's their 10 year right now, barely over zero or something like that. They yield on the Japanese 10 year. So it would make sense, I guess. What about crude when we go from there? Crude obviously on the minds of many sitting at about 80 bucks. What's your take on this crude market up from the lowest recently? Yeah, well, I think that last week's high is gonna get challenged again. And if we break out above that, I can see us going out of every bit into the upper 80, 89 handle pushing 90 over the next couple of weeks. So I'm bullish on crude right now. I think that we're making higher move highs, higher move lows. We've had a little pullback over the last couple of days, but I think this is just another buying opportunity right now for crude, so long-term. Nice. And can you tell those listening to Teddy, because I know you've walked through it before, but when they sign up for the Tiger Forex Report, they get an archive of the webinar you did for your subscribers, forex strategies and fundamentals. What is behind the Tiger Forex Report newsletter? About a 60 minute webinar, folks. You sign up, you get Teddy service for the month. You pay $97, you gain access to the 60 minute webinar. And if you don't like it, it's not something you're using. Maybe you're just not trading what's going on out there.  Can you walk those listening to Teddy, just kind of what you walked your subscribers through in that 60 minutes for that webinar for the subscribers? Oh, sure. Well, I break down basically how I approach the Tiger Forex Report every week. So I look at the dollar index, I look at the interest rates, and I look at crude because they're all factors in various of foreign currency pairs, you know, depending on like, for instance, crude impacts the yen, you know, interest rates impact all of the currency pairs, you know, and then the dollar index, you know, as a guide, you know, like there's times where like, it's really driving the trend, and there's times where we're in right now, where I've been talking about where we have this divergence of currencies. So every week, I start with the beginning with those markets and those are the core fundamentals, and then we move on to each individual peer where it's the euro, US dollar or the pound dollar, and then I break down the analysis for those markets and how those variables should be impacting them, especially when it comes to breakouts and trend levels, you know, where if you have the like, for instance, if the interest rate of yields start to rise really dramatically over the course of the week, it should be typically bullish for the US dollar or at least constrict any type of lower trading bias for the US dollar. And I incorporate those kinds of fundamentals into the report. That's awesome. And it's so cool because, you know, I've learned so much from you over the years, man. And right now it feels like at least 4X and tied in with yields like you're talking about in the central banks are just, you know, all on some type of a hiking cycle or maybe gonna get there, like the Bank of Japan, eventually, it's just all so intermingled right now and they're all so related.  You talk about crude, you talk about, you know, the dollar, the yen, how that all works. Folks, check it out on the front page of your TFNN under newsletters. Teddy, we appreciate it, man. You're gonna say goodbye, Teddy.  You say bye. Say bye, Teddy. You say bye. Say bye. He's looking. There he is. You got a little wave. All right, Teddy, I appreciate it, man. We'll talk to you next Wednesday, okay? All right, I'm gonna go shovel snow now. Oh, stay warm, man. I saw that Chicago. I always pull it up. The feels like, the feels like is always wild there with that wind, man. Stay warm, okay? Thanks, take care. Okay, man.


The signal oil program The whistler whistle is your signal for the signal oil program The whistler I am the whistler and I know many things for I walk by night I know many strange tales hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadows Yes, I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak Yes friends, it's time for the signal oil program the whistler Rated by independent research the most popular West Coast program In gasoline, you know it takes extra quality to go farther and Signal is the famous go farther gasoline So look for the signal circle sign in yellow and black that identifies signal service stations from Canada to Mexico And now the whistler strange story Seven steps to murder The Atkins Clayton affair was unusual for two reasons in the first place Of course it involved a pair of famous newspaper men Archer Atkins the Dean of New York Drama Critics and Everett Clayton a syndicated columnist But more than that it was interesting in its structure Yes, there were seven distinct steps between an apparently cordial relationship between two newspaper men and the murder The opening night of Clayton's first play the whirlwind was step number one Atkins had attended of course with the rest of the critics and Shortly after the final curtain had walked out to a waiting taxi with Merchison his editor Going back to the office Merchison. Yeah, I guess that better got a couple things to finish up. Yes, sir. No building driver, right Well, Atkins must say your friend Clayton gave me quite a surprise You never told me he was a drama full of hidden talents the boy when he was a kid He could stand on his head and wiggle his ears at the same time. You've known him for a long time, haven't you? I grew up with him Seems to me I heard somebody say you were once engaged to his sister absolutely correct I was quite fond of her at one time. Where is she now in Texas? Devoting her talents to some respectable school teacher or something then you and Clayton. Yes, we came east to school together In college came New York together after that Anything else chief? Yes, one other thing Why are you annoyed annoyed more than that?  I have a deadline to meet.  He deserves it. He certainly does Let's see now ever Clayton's new play the whirlwind opened last night at the Brighton Theatre Diana Brooks and Paul Strand finish it out. Oh Merchison been banging away there for an hour. I thought it is take a look Thanks Everett Clayton's new play the whirlwind Wait a minute Obviously a sophomoric attempt at a drama in the manner of O'Neill The whirlwind is not only afflicted with a deadly brand of dullness But is utterly lacking in originality imagination or even ordinary playability The death rattle was audible before the first act was five minutes old Listen atkins you can't like and I it was a bad play and I owe it to my who says it was a bad play you Is it up to you right? It's up to me. That's what I'm paid for You know what you're doing. Don't you this review will kill Clayton's play before it even gets a start You have no right to take that kind of responsibility then why don't you fire me?  Well ever good to see you sit down. Thank you waiter Coffee please. Yes, sir. No coffee for me milk. Yes, sir your stomach again. It's getting worse. I'm afraid That's not why I came is it Archer I suppose not that review Archer Nice of you. You're not a playwright Everett. You at least saw the play I presume Oh, of course hmm a sophomoric attempt at a drama in the manner of O'Neill An author spends a year writing a play and that's the consideration he gets any of your money in it everything I've got too bad Why didn't you consult me before let me read it because I thought and still think it's a good play I Didn't take it to you Archer because I knew what I'd get sarcasm smart cracks Not one bit of constructive criticism. There's a small item. You forgot and what's that talent? No one has yet succeeded in drawing milk from an elephant nor kindness from a critic if you wanted charity You should have said so honesty is not charity You won't be to go over it scene by scene and show you how bad it is. No because you couldn't That's the trouble you know The people don't decide what's good or bad anymore.  You've been a pony all your life Why if the robo boys in Switzerland had Edgall and pose name on it, you'd call it great that easy old boy You're getting carried away on the wrong guy Archer.  Oh Just do me a favor atkins Check my column tomorrow. It'll interest you With the prologue of seven steps to murder the signal oil company brings you another strange tale by the whistler But now let's suppose this were a quiz program You ready I have a man in a signal station Dr. Miller a great place to be and now for the first question in gasoline What does it take to go farther? Oh, that's easy in gasoline. It takes extra quality to go farther, right? You are in gasoline. It does take extra quality to go farther and now for your second question What is the famous go farther gasoline? Why signal is the famous go farther gasoline right again signal is the famous go farther gas Aline and you win the signal prize extra mileage plus extra driving pleasure and How may we close our little quiz program with this tip for drivers to get more mileage a gasoline must naturally get more Efficiency from your motor and motor efficiency means quicker starts faster pickup and smoother knock-free power That's why signal says your speedometer is the best yardstick of gasoline quality Just you switch to signal for a few tankfuls. You'll find it's true in gasoline it does take extra quality to go farther and signal is the famous go farther gasoline and Now back to the whistler.  Did you read Clayton's column? I don't read the ledger lead paragraph list I am now reconciled of the fact that my play the whirlwind will close in a matter of days as a result of the efforts of a group of Critics headed by Archer atkins as a matter of fact atkins is not equipped to set himself up as a critic or Even a writer he has no conception of values in literature dramatic poetic or otherwise and I intend to prove it in music Ranting of a wounded beast you wouldn't be whistling in the dark. Would you atkins? I'm sorry my good man I'm gonna be quite busy. Aren't there a few juicy obituaries that require your keen intelligence. I hope Clayton gives you a sock on a jaw Number three Archer Clayton's reply the next day a public challenge that went out to 20 million readers You decide it's ridiculous of course and during the weeks that follow you forget about it The play lasts five days and closes You and Everett Clayton only nod coolly now as you meet from time to time in the lobby and corridors of the Stratford Club Then one evening some weeks later Barbara Ross the fashion editor on the ledger walks up to you in the lobby and taps you on the shoulder Archer darling. Good evening my dear. Archer I found something. I thought you'd want to glance at. Oh did Clayton put me in print again? Nothing like that. Somebody handed me this book of poetry. It was printed privately only 50 copies. Oh now wait a minute Barbara I've read a million of those things and really I don't. Please Archer. Look I've got six hours of reading a day as it is. You've got to Archer for me. It'll only take a few minutes. You can look at it tonight after you get home. All right Barbara let's see it's 14 by Jafar Ahmed. Never heard of him. What's it about? I think it's lovely written by an immigrant boy about his love for a little girl. Oh no thank you. But Archer. Poetry darling is as much a part of adolescence as the first chave. Just about as important. Archer you know so much more about poetry than anyone else I know. All right dear all right I'll look it over. Step number four the book of poetry. Nothing to it of course is there Archer but you take it home toss it on the nightstand and just before you decide to turn out the light you pick it up and glance at the first page. It holds you from the start. There's something about the poems that haunt you almost as if you'd read them before. Memories things you'd forgotten completely spring to life. Yes this boy has managed to capture something out of every man's youth. Something that gets under your skin and stays there. You'll finish the book. Get out of bed hurriedly and sit down at your typewriter. You can't wait until tomorrow can you watch her you've got to get it on paper now. Although the poems are immature there's something great and universal about this work. The volume has been printed privately but in my opinion it would be a wise investment for any publisher to issue it in quantity. 14 by Jafar Ahmed should never be forgotten. That ought to do it. It'll be on the best seller list in a month. In the morning you hand your article to a copy boy unaware of course that you've just completed step number five and that's the vicious part of it.  It's just 24 hours later when the same copy boy walks into your office places a newspaper on your desk. Step number six. Here's your copy of the ledger Mr. Please boy you know better I never read the ledger everybody on the staff's reading it today sir especially Everett Clayton's car along with you. Yes sir just thought I'd around town with ever Clayton. Here we are. Three months ago I promised to reveal Archer Atkins the so called Dean of Literary Critics as a photo. Today I call attention to the raves he has been giving the book of poems called 14 supposedly written by a 14 year old Iranian lad. The fact is gentle reader. I wrote 14. What is shocking. Oh hello. I didn't see you. It's all right. It's all right. You didn't hide that some of our best people read ever Clayton including the publishers of this paper trash.  Clayton never wrote 14. He hasn't got enough sense. He seems to know a lot about it. I should read on he tells just how he did it. He had no knowledge of poetry says just threw together the luscious adjectives he could concoct made a senseless hodgepodge and had the whole mess printed up on the quiet. And you the great Archer Atkins gave it a bouquet praised it to the sky.  Don't tell me to calm down. As a matter of fact why don't you get out of here. I'll teach Clayton his place you're through teaching anyone his place. I mentioned our publishers. Well they called Archie what your resignations to be handed in by the end of a month until then I'm to edit all your stuff. You've been waiting for this moment for a long time haven't you Murchison frankly yes poor drudge the mediocre untalented editor finally has his day that's right Archie I'm going to shine now while you curl up at home and read 14 by Everett Clayton did not write that book or I read it the more I know I've read it someplace before if it takes me years I'm going to find the real author of those verses sensitive or go hang Clayton's a bold face liar and I'll call him under his face not in the globe you won't and why not I told you I'm editing your material can't you get used to the idea I don't intend to have any libel suits in my hands not even to save the great name of Archer atkins. Good day for once I've had the last word. Well I turn you never expected never in the world it has you see the. And it's even worse when you reach the Stratford Club and learn that you've suddenly been turned into a laughing stock that your formally respectful colleagues are now given to chuckling and whispering behind your back a few like candy car or more open about it. Oh what you're all boy how could you what was it now I still feel the music the poignant expression of an adolescent. Sweetly agonizing emotions part of every man's you. Ever Clayton wrote 14 the earth is flat the moon is made of green cheese and you my dear Henley are as wise as Aristotle and who did write the poems are just take my reputation that Clayton stole every verse in that book. I know I've read those poems before. This thing has got you hasn't it Archer and it hurts deep twisting inside you until finally the seventh step begins to take shape. The seventh and final step. Murder. It's a frightening thought isn't it Archer frightening but very clear. It's all there in your mind as you ride up to your luxurious suite in the elevator. Ever Clayton is a man of habits one of them forced upon him by his health. You know all about that Archer how each evening at seven a waiter brings a large glass of milk to his apartment.  Hello coffee shop. This is Mr. Atkins. I wonder if you would send me up something. No I don't know something like a chicken sandwich perhaps. No no no hurry. Was that you have a waiter coming to Mr. Clayton's rooms at seven was time enough. Surely don't make a special trip. Thank you. A short time later you leave the door to your sweet a jar and sit just inside pretending to read while you watch for that waiter. He comes down the hall and starts for Clayton's room. Oh waiter. Yes sir. You have a sandwich and coffee for me. Yes sir I was going to stop first. Set it right down there on the desk would you. And then I wonder if you could do something for me. I tried to unlock a suitcase a moment ago but I couldn't seem to turn the key. Would you have a look at it. Why certainly sir where is it in the bedroom. Of course if it's too much trouble not at all sir I've handled a lot of them. You hesitate as the waiter starts across to the bedroom and then you turn quickly to the tray set down on your desk. Before he comes back you empty the contents of a small envelope into the milk intended for Clayton. You stir it hastily with a spoon and then return to your book. I got it open for you sir. The lock sprung a little bit. Oh I'd have it attended to. Here you go thanks for your trouble. Not at all sir. Thank you very much. Thank you. You settle back in your chair now giving the waiter time to deliver the glass of milk to Clayton. A few minutes later you slip out into the corridor and down the hall stop outside of Clayton's door and listen. He's talking to someone on the telephone. I'll see them about it first thing tomorrow. Yes yes I promise goodbye. You wait tensely after Clayton hangs up hoping no one will come along the hall and find you standing there. This business of murder isn't easy on the nerve is it. The moments dragged by what's he doing isn't he ever going to pick up that glass. You're trembling now wondering if it's ever going to happen and then. A moment later you wept the door open step inside and lock it. A glance at Clayton's body sprawled on the floor assures you that he's dead. Quickly you cross the room and sit down at his battered portable typewriter. To my dear mother my sister and gentle readers. It isn't often that a man gets the opportunity to write his own obituary believe me this isn't easy but I have been ill for some ten years now. You type rapidly Archer because you know exactly what you want Clayton's suicide note to say. It includes above all else a confession one in which the dead ever Clayton will admit to the world that his plan against you was just that a plan. His note tells how he lied in claiming to have written the verses in the book 14 how actually he simply dug up a number of anonymous ballads and revised them a bit. You put it all down Archer your way but in Everett Clayton style and then you add his well-known signature just the two simple typewritten letters. E see thanks my dear Everett see tomorrow how your 20 million readers like this one. The Whistler will return in just a moment with a strange ending of tonight's story. You regular Whistler fans have all heard me speak of the more thorough more conscientious service cars get that dealer owned signal service stations. But the really important thing is what customers say about it. That's why we're so happy to receive letters such as this one I have with me tonight. It's from Arthur Anderson of Los Angeles who writes after listening to the Whistler I decided to try signal go farther gasoline and test its mileage for myself. But after stopping at two signal stations I was so pleased with the courteous service I completely forgot to check the mileage as you suggested. However thanks to signal dealers and the Whistler you may be assured I'll be a steady signal customer from now on. Well Mr. Anderson here's hoping that by now you've also had a chance to prove in your own car that signal is the famous go farther gasoline and that it takes extra quality to go farther. Right now however on behalf of signal oil company I do want to thank you for your kindness in writing. It's letters like yours which we're constantly receiving that make signal dealers strive to do an ever better job of making today's cars run better and last longer. And now back to the Whistler. Well the seven steps are past now Arthur. Everett Clayton is dead. But more important than that the suicide note in his typewriter will put you back at the top of the heap. Yes. Merchison your publishers and Hanley Carr the whole literary world will have to admit who has the right to wear the critics crown. But you're very practical about it aren't you. The police will come of course and you're ready for them with that vague superior confident air that has always carried you through before. And why not. What can they possibly prove. You don't seem at all surprised at the police calling on you Mr Atkins. My dear Captain Foss the moment the manager of this club informed me of Clayton's unfortunate demise. I resigned myself to a round of dull questions naturally. You have known him all his life grew up with him sweet on his sister at one time. Anything else you want to know I was an incubator baby weight three pounds two and a third ounces. I'm surprised you aren't more interested in the way Clayton died.  Whether he was shot through the head with a cannon threw himself into Mount Vesuvius or was clubbed to death with the missing arm of Venus de Milo doesn't concern me in the least. Poison is more to your liking isn't it. I don't know what you're trying to imply. Let's make it clear then how long did it take you to write that note note Captain the suicide note in Clayton's typewriter. No tell. Inverse no doubt. It says Clayton never wrote those poems that he stole them from some anonymous ballot. Well I insisted on that all the time. We'd like it hold that editor of mine. You wrote that note Atkins you poisoned Clayton and then ran the note off on his typewriter.  Don't try to bluff it's too late for that. What do you mean you're going up for murder.    Another one is the druggist who sold you the poison. Didn't know he recognized you did you. I don't know anything about it. And the third is a lady down in Texas. Lady. Texas. Yeah take a look at these papers you ever seen them before. They're yellow. They're old. They're poems you wrote to Everett Clayton's sister when you were 14 years old over 40 years ago. The book of poetry you reviewed was not written by Jafar Ahmed or Everett Clayton but by Archer Atkins. You've been so busy reading other people's writing for 40 years you can't even recognize your own stuff. I was reviewing my own book. That's right. And another thing Clayton got a phone call last night just before he was killed it's too bad you couldn't have heard it. Phone call. I didn't hear it. He was talking to your old sweetheart Atkins his sister down in Texas. When she read how Clayton had crucified you with that book of poetry she blew up. Called to make him promise a public retraction and tomorrow's paper admitting the whole thing. He promised that he'd see you about it in the morning. Let that whistle be your signal for the signal oil program the Whistler. Each Monday at nine brought to you by the signal oil company marketers of signal gasoline and motor oil and fine quality automotive accessories. Signal has asked me to remind you to get the most driving pleasure drive at sensible speeds be courteous and obey traffic regulations. It may save a life possibly your own featured in tonight's story were John Brown William Johnstone and Howard Duck. The Whistler was produced by George W. Allen with story by Meyer Dolinsky music by Wilbur hatch and was transmitted to our troops overseas by the armed forces radio service. This is Marvin Miller speaking for the signal oil company.

Oh, it looks like it's a graveyard Let's see what we find here I'm assuming there's gonna be some jump scares here All right, so we just oh wait. It says look through window. Okay. Let's look through window There's these switches. Okay, let's switch them all on. Let's see what happens return back Can I go inside? No, I cannot What's over here? That was weird. He wasn't there. So let's go to To the Yoshi's island. Let's go see what's cracking at Yoshi's island.  What's going on here? All right, let's go Yoshi's island What do they have here? It's a door here enter door Okay, I think that was a new one. All right, let's go. Oh What was that? Enter door go this way. All right, let's Let's see something. Oh man. There's something going on over here for sure Okay, let's go in here. All right, I probably need a key, huh?  I heard something but I didn't know what it was All right. All right. Let's go in there again. Let's go in there again But now I know I okay. I could possibly die in this game. I didn't know I thought it was just clicking stuff All right, so let's go over here. Let's go to the first door again See what's cracking in here. Enter door Oh, like there's something dead down there. What is that? Uh-oh I gotta go. Let's go to the last door. Sometimes I feel like the last door is always the one that you need to go into Oh, there's an egg right there Some eggs Can it oh, I could pick up the eggs. Let's go. Let's save all of them Oh, no, I could only pick up one What's over here? Oh, there's a dead Yoshi in the top All right, let's pick up the purple one.  Let's go. Let's keep going Okay, so you can't stay too long in one area because then the The monster starts getting closer. So let's go all the way to the last one right here Let's go to the left So far I don't hear the footsteps. So oh, am I leaving the spot? All right. So that was a sketch spot. So let's go somewhere else. Let's go to Bowser's castle See what's cracking here. Let's go this way Quiet in here.  Oh, we back at the chair.   What's that? How me? Is he using the restroom or what's he doing? Let's keep it going What's up toad? You gonna let me in or what? Enter door Yeah, he let me in Hold on there. This is Mario's room. He isn't accepting any visitors. So go home Geez, you don't gotta be that rude about it. Mario. Yo, what's up? I'm outside dog He could have easily let me in bro. Just knock on the window go into the right All right, let's go in this door. Is this cracking in here? I could go into that tube right there. Let's see See what's in there. Oh wait. I can't go over there either Okay, never mind. Let's go back. Oh, it says look through window Look through window. Let's see what we see appears to be a pipe from the underground Least directly to Mario's room. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay I see where this is going So just keep going this way What's over here? That's that. So now let's go to All right, let's go to the underground again. Oh, okay. So if I find a if I find a tube here, I'll be able to go into Mario's room So let's go They're stopping me again All right, so that's all I'm gonna do for today If you want me to continue playing the game and to try to figure out Where the heck I gotta go next. Let me know this game actually does take a long time So let me know if you guys want me to keep playing it and uh, yeah, if you guys enjoyed that Make sure you click subscribe. Make sure you comment make sure you like make sure you do all that All right. See you guys later. Peace


I got a new backpack and it's amazing and I got to go to school with it. We are just thrilled having a wonderful day here, an opportunity to give out backpacks. We've partnered with, you know, Pike and the Pike County Libraries and we've been able to bless all kinds of kids with backpacks today as they get ready to go into the new school year. During the backpack giveaway event hosted by Grace Community Kitchen, the organizers distributed over 170 backpacks filled with essential school supplies. Sometimes I know events like this they'll just throw one and hand it out but we've really made sure to try and get kids the backpacks that they wanted, the backpacks in their favorite colors, their favorite designs because that is so important. It becomes a part of them throughout the year and it was really great to be able to see everyone get the items that they wanted, get the stuff that they wanted and really be able to personalize it for them and that's always great to see because it really is about the community helping the community. Are you ready for a new school year? What better way to start a new school year off right than with a new device on the network that keeps our students and teachers connected? Appalachian Wireless. Whether you need a new smartphone, wearable or an iPad, we have your back to school solution. Visit AppalachianWireless.com or go into one of our 26 retail locations for our back to school deals that'll help you show up and show out this school year. We are you. We are Appalachian Wireless. Grace Community Kitchen known for its commitment to serving the community once again proved its dedication by providing over 500 mils during the event. While volunteer stylists provided a total of 24 haircuts leading the young ones looking their best and ready to take on the new school year with confidence. To me there is nothing more important that we can do in our lives than to help other people and we're in a place here where we see the need up close and personal every single week as people come in our doors and pick up free meals. We know that families are struggling and we don't have just you know somebody homeless walking in our doors. We have families working families and so we know that the need is there and being able to provide a backpack and some school supplies just alleviates a burden from people who are already stressed and overloaded with the worries of lives and bills and just living. Individuals eager to contribute and be part of the positive impact that Grace Community Kitchen costs<PHONE_NUMBER>. Reporting from Mountain Top News, I'm Ethan Miller.


Hello friends, I am Sanjay Gupta. In this video, I am going to demonstrate you the predefined macros available in C programming. Before starting, you can note how you can search my YouTube channel. You can type my name Sanjay Gupta in YouTube. My channel will be available there. You can watch various programming related videos here. Now I am going to demonstrate you some predefined macros available in C programming. So first I have included a header file that is stdio.h. Now I am going to define main function. Inside main, I will be using predefined macros. So first I am going to print name of file in which I am writing the code. To print current file name, I have to use this macro that is beginning with double underscore. Then name of macro is file which will be written in capital and it is end with double underscore sign. So this file macro will be printing current file name. So in our case, name of file is test.c. So this name will be displayed on output screen. Now with second printf, I am going to print current date that is today's date and macro is date. Again I am using two underscore at the beginning of macro and two underscore at the end of macro. Now third macro will be printing current time. So same notation. Now I am going to use fourth macro that will be printing current line number. So this line macro is used at line number 8. So it will be printing line equals to 8. And fifth macro will be printing whether this compiler that I am using currently follows RCC standard or not. So I am using Dave C++. It follows RCC standard. So it will be printing 1. If your compiler is not following RCC standard then output will be 0. So now I am going to execute this code. You can match the output. First it is showing file that is CTC bin test.c. So here test.c is the name of file in which I am writing this source code. And path is CTC bin where this file is stored. Then second output is April 30, 2018. So this is the current date. On this date I am recording this video. So it is printing this date. Then current time. So right now time is 2651. So this is the current time that it is printing. If you use date and time according or as per your requirement. So it might be possible that these date and time will be different. So if you are executing this program on a particular date then that date will be printed and that particular time will be printed when you will be executing this code. Then you can see line number is 8 because line macro is available at line number 8. And STDC is printing 1 because Dave C++ compiler follows RCC standards. So this way I have used these 5 predefined macros that are available in C programming. I hope you have understood how we can use predefined macros in C programming. If you want to watch more programming related videos you can search my YouTube channel by my name Sanjay Gupta. You can also download my programming app Techiness which is available on Google Play. Thank you for watching this video.


So let's see if we can find a way of turning a non-exact differential equation into an exact differential equation through the use of some integrating factor. So let's work on an actual differential equation. Let's check this for exactness. So, again, dy over dx is not a fraction. Nevertheless, we'll separate our differentials as a reminder that if this equation is exact, the derivative with respect to y must be this thing, and the derivative with respect to x must be this thing, and our check is whether the mixed partials are the same. So here, I've already differentiated with respect to y, so I'll differentiate with respect to x and get. And here, I've already differentiated with respect to x, so I'll differentiate with respect to y and get. And since these are different, this can't be exact. So could we try to find an integrating factor? Now, since our differential equation involves both x and y, the natural question to ask is, could we find an integrating factor i of x, y that will make this an exact differential equation? Well, let's try it out. So we'll take our differential equation, we'll multiply through by our function i of x, y, and separating our differentials. So if this is exact, our coefficient of dy is going to be a partial derivative of some function with respect to y, and the coefficient of dx is going to be a partial derivative of the same thing with respect to x. And if there's any hope for this to work out, the mixed partial derivatives must be equal. So we've already differentiated f with respect to y, so if we differentiate with respect to x, we get. And likewise here, we've already differentiated with respect to x, so if we differentiate with respect to y, we get. And so we need our mixed partial derivatives to be equal. And so this gives us the equation. And so if we can solve this partial differential equation, we can find the integrating factor. Yeah, no. The problem is we haven't yet talked about how to solve partial differential equations. Tactically, that isn't really a problem because remember the problem exists independent of our ability to solve it. The real problem is that in general, we don't have any way of solving partial differential equations. So we can't use this method effectively. So what can we do? So again, a useful rule in life and in mathematics is that it's easier to obtain forgiveness than permission. Now, the important requirement here is that it has to work, otherwise you won't get forgiveness either. So rather than assume our integrating factor is a function of both x and y, let's see if we can find an integrating factor that's a function of x only that will make our differential equation exact. So again, we'll take our differential equation and multiply it by our integrating factor. We'll separate the differentials. And so this coefficient of dy must have been the partial with respect to y. The coefficient of dx must have been the partial with respect to x. We'll find our mixed partial derivatives. And again, the requirement is that we want our mixed partial derivatives to be equal. So we'll set them equal to each other. And we'll do a little algebra. Both sides have a factor of e to the y, which is never going to be zero, so we can divide by it. We can get all of our xi of x terms over onto the right-hand side. And so whatever our integrating factor is, the derivative must be minus 1 over x times the integrating factor itself. And this looks awfully familiar. Let's see what we can do with this. So the derivative of our integrating factor is minus 1 over x i of x, and so rearranging things a little bit, we get. And now, since both sides only rely on the variable x, we can find the anti-derivative with respect to x. And so we have log of our integrating factor is minus the log of x, and we'll do a little bit of algebra. And we find our integrating factor is 1 over x. So remember, the whole point of this was to find a function that we could multiply our differential equation by to get an exact differential equation. So with integrating factor 1 over x, we have our differential equation, and if we multiply this by 1 over x, we get... which is exact. And so that means the solutions are level curves of f of x, y equals c. Well, if the solutions are level curves, then our differential equation will have the form of a complete derivative. And so our partial of f with respect to y is the coefficient of dy dx. And the partial of f with respect to x is the leftovers. So we can find f by anti-differentiating with respect to y, which gives us our function up to some function of x. Likewise, we can anti-differentiate with respect to x and get our function up to some function of y. But they have to be the same function, so we can compare the two. And so c1 of x has to be x itself, and c2 of y has to be 0. And so putting everything together, we find these solutions are going to be level curves of f of x, y equals x plus x e to power y.


Hi and welcome to the session. Today we will learn about mode and median. So first of all let us start with mode of grouped data. Mode is that value among observations which occurs most often. So to find out the mode of the given data we will first find the modal class. In modal class is the class with the maximum frequency. Then we can find mode using the formula L plus F1 minus F0 upon 2F1 minus F0 minus F2 into H where L is the lower limit of the modal class is the class size. Assuming all class sizes to be equal is the frequency modal class. 0 is the frequency of the class preceding the modal class. F2 is the frequency of the class succeeding the modal class. Let us take one example to understand this. So here we are given class intervals and frequency corresponding to each class interval and we need to find mode. So first of all we will find the modal class and as we can see that in these frequencies 20 is the maximum frequency. So the class corresponding to the frequency 20 that is 200 to 250 will be the modal class. So we have modal class as 200 to 250. So here L will be 200 that is the lower limit of the modal class which will be equal to 250 minus 200 that is 50. Here this will be F1 F0 and 10 will be F2. Now let us find mode and mode is given by the formula L plus F1 minus F0 upon 2F1 minus F0 minus F2 into H. Now substituting these values we will get 200 plus 20 minus 5 upon 2 into 20 minus 5 minus 10 into 50. So this will be equal to 230. So here mode is equal to 230. Now let us move on to median of group data. Median is the measure of central tendency which gives the value of the middle most observation in the data. To find out median we will first of all find the median class. In class is the class whose cumulative frequency is greater than or is to the value N upon 2 where N is number of observations. Then we can find out median using the formula L plus N upon 2 minus CF upon F into H where N is lower limit of median class. N is number of observations. F is cumulative frequency preceding the median class. F is the frequency of median class and H is the class size assuming all class sizes to be equal. Now let us find out the median for the same data. Here we have class intervals, frequency. Now let us make the column for cumulative frequency. Here cumulative frequency will be 6, 6 plus 3, 9, 9 plus 5, 14, 14 plus 20, 34, 34 plus 10, 44. So here number of observations that is N is equal to 44. Now let us find out the median class first. For that we have N equal to 44. So this implies N upon 2 will be equal to 22. Now the cumulative frequency which is greater than and nearest to 22 is 34. That means the class corresponding to 34 that is 200 to 250 will be the median class. So here we have median class as 200 to 250. So N that is the lower limit of the median class will be equal to 200 upon 2 is 22. Now CF that is the cumulative frequency of the class preceding to the median class is 14 and F that is the frequency of median class will be 20. Finally H will be equal to the class size that is 250 minus 200 which is equal to 50. Now let us find out median which is given by the formula N plus N upon 2 minus CF upon F into H. Now substituting the values we will get 200 plus 22 minus 14 upon 20 into 50 and this will be equal to 220. So here median is equal to 220. Now there is a spherical relationship between mean, median and mode. That relationship is 3 times median is equal to mode plus 2 times median. With this we finish this session hope you must have understood all the concepts. Goodbye take care and have a nice day.


The Johnson-Wax Program, Words at War, with Carl Van Doren. The makers of Johnson's Wax for home and industry, in cooperation with the Council on Books in War Time, proudly presents one of the most widely discussed programs in America. Words at War, dramatizations of the most representative books to come out of this great world conflict. And with this as usual, is one of the keenest judges of good books in America. The eminent author, biographer and Pulitzer Prize winner, Mr. Carl Van Doren. Mr. Van Doren. Tonight's book is the story of an American who has been a soldier since the early months of this war, but who has never left the country. He modestly begins by saying that he has nothing to talk about and that that is why he wrote the book. But you will soon find out that he has a great deal to talk about. I'll tell you what it is and who the author is after Jack Costello has brought you a short message from our sponsor. You know, folks, we'd like to point out that during these summer days, both your front and back doors are apt to be open a good deal of the time. That means that more than the usual amount of dust and dirt are going to blow into your kitchen and front entrance hall. And their linoleum floor coverings need extra protection. They'll be perfectly safe if they're polished with Johnson's glow coat. If you ever looked at the jagged edges of those dirt particles under a magnifying glass, you'd understand why floor coverings wear so much longer. In fact, six to ten times longer when they're regularly protected with Johnson's self-polishing glow coat. Actually, the glow coat film, although invisible, acts as a tough shield guarding against wear and scratches. Glow coat is easy to apply, dries quickly to a beautiful sparkling finish. It's called self-polishing because it needs no rubbing or buffing. It keeps the colors of your linoleum new looking indefinitely. And of course, it saves you many hours of work. All right, here's Mr. Vandoren. Words at war tonight brings you a dramatization of Donald Huff's Captain Retread. In the last war, Donald Huff was interned private, corporal, second lieutenant, and first lieutenant in the signal corps. In this war, he is a captain in the Air Force. His book is the story of his experiences in an army which is essentially the American army he knew, but in a war which is different and how different. Pay no attention to him when he says he has nothing to talk about. He has a great deal to tell all Americans about the daily lives of millions of young men, soldiers in training whom we think of every day. But I'll let Captain Huff tell you himself as he tells it in his human and humorous book, Captain Retread. That's a great song. I was going back in the army after 24 years. The last time I was a kid of 22. Now I was 47. An individual of experience.  But which, having watched and developed, I accredited mostly to beer. I was getting into uniform again on May 19, 1942. Trying to pick up where I'd left off on August 4, 1919. I had a commission as captain in the Air Corps. And first order of business was to meet my friend Hyatt at the department store to pick out a uniform. Hyatt tried to get back in the army, too, but they turned him down. Poor guy, I felt awful sorry for him. Look! Pornographs, house furnishings, kitchenware, uniform. Uniforms. And boys' clothing. Creepy. Third floor. Make it easy, brother. You can't get out until I open the door. I've got to get a uniform. Probably got a few left. Out on three. Pardon me, madam. Excuse me, sir. On up three. Get back in the car, please. Up three. Hey, hi. Hi. Here I am. Oh, hello, Don. Very nice of you to come down high. Where are the uniforms? Right over here. I've been looking at them.  You know, I still can't figure why they turned me down. I'm in just as good shape as you are. Well, maybe high, but, you know, we all can't go back. You've got a jab to do here at home, high old man. Air raid warden, save waste fats, sell bonds. Man in the home front, you know. Ah, nuts to the home front.  Yes, gentlemen. May I be of service? My friend wants to look at a uniform. Yeah, an army officer's uniform. Big, your pardon, sir. You are going in the army? I'm going back in the army. Oh, a retread, eh? What do you mean, retread? Oh, that's just to name the younger men half of you First World War officers, sir. They call you retreads. Rather good, don't you think? Hey, that's not bad. That's just what you are, Don, a retread. Oh, right, all right. Let's see some uniforms. Well, now, let me see. I'd say you take a 40, right? 36. I'm so them wrong about sizes, sir. Yeah, let's just slip this 40 on for size. I don't want a 40. I want a 36. You only take a 36 now? Oh, I have taken a 40 now and then, but I'll be losing a lot of weight in the army. What I want is a 36. Very well, sir, if you insist. 36, well, you'll never get into it. And here we are, sir, a 36. Thank you.  Now, there we are. Now we put this one on. Uh-huh. Now we button the buttons. There. My, we do have a tummy, don't we? Now, your cap, sir. Oh, no, no, I don't want that kind. I want one of those slouchy ones. I'm in the Air Corps. Don't be silly, Don. Those floppy caps are for flyers. Yeah, but I could have one, couldn't I?  Oh, all right. Now you're insignia, sir. Double silver bar. That's right. Uh, let me fix them for you. Oh, thanks. There we are. All ready for another war, eh? Not bad. Not bad at all. All done. I really would like to have the blouse altered for you, sir. If you don't mind my saying it, it is a little snug. Snug? Say, buddy, in a few weeks this blouse will be hanging on me like a sack. Come on, high, let's go. Goodbye. Good luck, Captain. Goodbye. Come on, Captain Retread. Coming. Goodbye, Broadway, hello, friends. Hey, hi. Look what's coming at us. What? Don't you see? A soldier. Boy, watch me return his snappy salute. Hey, this'll be great. First time I've saluted in 20 years. Get this now, high. Get this high. Boy, why, he walked right by me. He didn't even look at me. Didn't even give you a tumble. But you'll recover. Now come on, Retread. Let's stop in at Joe's. I'm thirsty. I certainly need something after shopping with you, Don. That is nice of you to come, high. I appreciate it. You ruin my day. You get a commission and they turn me down. I still don't get it. Oh, it's just the brakes, high. You know, somebody's got the man. Don't you mention manning that home front again or so help me, Don. Yes, gentlemen. Oh, hello, Mr. Downey. Hello, Joe. Mr. Oh, I mean Captain Hoff. Well, congratulations, Captain. Thanks, Joe. Yes, they're getting some of us old boys back in harness. Yes, they certainly are. What'll it be, gentlemen? The usual, Joe. Only make it a double. Yes, sir. And you, Captain? Oh, I don't know. Give me the same, I guess. What's the matter? Not for you, Captain. No one in uniform served before five o'clock. California law. Oh, no, say, what's the idea? You could have a little beer, maybe, or a soft drink. Oh, give me a beer. One beer. My wife, Barry, and my son, Sherwood, and I were living in Laguna Beach. Sherwood was stationed nearby with the Marines. And I was due to report to the air base at Santa Ana. So we were all together for a while anyway. Well, come in here. I've got something to show you. All right, dear. I'll be right in. And wondering what was keeping you. Just about to call your office. Sherwood's going out this evening at... Don. How do you like it? But when did you get it? It's afternoon. I went with me. Sappy, huh? Oh, you look wonderful, dear. Wonderful. Not bad for a retread, huh? Retread, dear? Sure. You know, that's what the kids call us old timers, who come back in the Army. Oh, that's cute. Retread. Yeah. Now, see, back in harness. Dear, turn around. Huh? Why? Turn around. All right. Hmm. Dear, isn't that coat a little snug? Snug? Well, of course it isn't. It's a 36. But, dear, you take a 40. I take a 36. This fits me. Well, anyway, I'll be losing weight in the Army. Well, perhaps. But anyway, unbutton the coat and sit down. Be comfortable. Perfectly comfortable the way I am. But, uh, it is a little warm, isn't it? Well, if I sort of unbutton it is warm. Well, Barry. Here we go again. Yep, once more. I can't pretend that I like it. You and the Army, Sherwood and the Marines? Well, I'm not going any place much, Barry. I'll probably stay in this country. Maybe we can have a house wherever I'm stationed. It won't be bad. What about Sherwood? Well, somebody's kid has to go overseas. I know it. But I don't want to go overseas. I can't help it. I don't want him to go. You'll come through all right, Barry. It's just something that's got to be done. We were getting along so well. Sherwood loved his job. Your work was going fine. Everything was nice. Just the way I always hoped it would be. And then this, this war. We're just one little family, Barry. We've got to remember that. Oh. I don't want to go overseas. We've got to remember that. I know, dear. And I understand what you and Sherwood must do. You can count on me. Sure. We know that. Hey, where is the kid? He's upstairs getting ready for a date. Donna, I wish you'd speak to him. Yeah, about what? He's getting so hard to manage. I begged him to wear his rubbers today and he flatly refused. Oh, Barry. Sherwood's a man now. He's a marine. I don't care. Don, do you think he's getting enough to eat? Of course he is. He's eating better than you are. I don't know what's come over him. I fix all his favorite dishes and he hardly touches them. Barry, soldiers eat well. They don't come home hungry. That's the trouble. People think soldiers get nothing to eat but beans. Well, he looks thin to me. Well, sure. He's lost weight. Bound to him basic training. I say I'll probably take off 30 or 40 pounds myself. Where are you? In the living room, dear. Come in. I want to show you something. Okay, what is it, Mom? Jeepers, Dad. When did you get it? Private Huff. Is that the way to enter the presence of a superior officer? What do you mean, superior officer? A marine private first class is the same as a captain in the air corps. Why? But okay. Mrs. Huff? Yeah? Mrs. Huff, may I have your permission to speak to the captain? Oh, you sillies. Yes, you have my permission. Captain Huff, sir, I have Mrs. Huff's permission to speak to you. Very well, Private Huff. Well, get up on your feet. Give us a gander at that uniform. All right. Boy, if that ain't something, that's pretty good, Dad, for a retread. Hey, what do you mean, retread? Doesn't he look fine in his uniform? Button it up, dear. Boy, I'll say. Hey, hey, say, say, Dad, turn around. Turn around? What's the matter? Dad, isn't that blouse a little snug? I hope you're having as much fun as I am. This is Carl Van Doren speaking, and we're bringing you a dramatization based upon Donald Huff's book, Captain Retread, another of the Words at War series presented each week by the makers of Johnson's Wax. So far, we've shown you Captain Retread, an officer in the First World War who has donned his uniform for the second. It's a bit snug, but he's going to reduce.  Well, I reported to Santa Anna, and the first day stepped around the base with a spring on my walk. I had a picture of myself, lean-hipped, a hard-bitten fellow with chiseled features, the mark of many a bitter campaign on his face. Yet the little wrinkles around his eyes have betrayed a keen sense of humor, the right little smile, somehow a bit sad, too. Women would naturally fall in love with this fellow. But what was the poor chap to do? I dropped in the PX for a cup of coffee. There's a cute little redhead waiting on the counter. I slid onto a stool and decided to give the kid a break. Hello, gorges. Hello. What'll it be? I'd like a cup of coffee. Beautiful. Draw one. Anything else? Pop? No, no, no. We took the other old guy. You've got to take the captain on your side. Listen, we've got three of these Retreads on our team now. So have we. What can we do about it? There's simply in regulations about five hours of physical training or athletics a week. I decided to take it out in softball, which was no treat to the youngsters on the team. They put me in right field on the theory that nobody ever hits anything there in softball. So I tried to put on a front. I stand out in right, picking up pebbles now and then. I place my hands on my hips during pauses, the way they do in the big leagues. Take a few quick steps in the direction of a ball, no matter where it's hit, and in a general way, try to show that I'm on my toes. I shout encouraging remarks to the pitcher. He ignores me. But everything's okay until it's my turn to bat. You can do it, captain! In and a mothin'! I'm up there to try. I wiggle my legs like Babe Ruth, hitch my belt like Miller Huggins, swing my bat exactly like Hans Wagner. Nice try count. I wasn't destined to attend the Army as a commuter for very long. Orders came through, transferring me to a base gunnery school at Ajo, in Arizona, near the Mexican border. A very rugged post. It wasn't practical to get a house, so Barry stayed at home. We sure went away with the Marines. She pitched into Red Cross work. And at last, our family was fighting a total war. And now, away from home, now really a 24-hour day soldier, I find myself proud to be living with these men. Especially at night as I walk between the rows of brightly lighted barracks and the tents placed along the streets to handle the overflow. There's something thrilling about the post at night, just before the lights go out. There's laughter and horseplay. The last few minutes of general talk, the tired fingers scribbling letters home.  The energies and brains of all these youngsters who are segregated from the world at which they've been so vital apart, confined by these barracks' walls in dedication to battle. And beyond the barracks, reaching to all parts of the country, hover the indistinct images of families. Their eyes and thoughts turn this way. Apprehension this way. Fear this way. Love this way. Watching boxes being packed. Presence being bought. Prayers being said. It seems too heavy a concentration in this small spot of the very essence of the country. Too many of the best. The mixture's too rich here, leaving it too lean outside. Barry came down to look over the army and me. Barry, darling, oh, I'm so glad to see you, dear. You look wonderful. Well, ten pounds lighter, that's all. You have at least that, Don. Well, come on, Barry, I'll show you around. I want to see your quarters. You will. What kind of a song is that? Oh, that's our old hinky-dinky brought up to date. The waxin' waves will win the war, par-li-boo. The waxin' waves will win the war, par-li-boo. The waxin' waves will win the war. So what the heck are we fighting for? Hinky-dinky par-li-boo. A million verses. They're fine-looking boys, aren't they, Don? Yeah, they're the best, Barry. Oh, there's one of the barracks. That? You'll be sorry! What's that? He's yelling at those recruits just passing the barracks. That's the stock greeting for all new men. You'll be sorry. Well, I must say everybody seems to be in good humor. Yes, Barry, they are. The army's humor is what makes it the best army in the world. It's our defense in depth. What do you mean, Don? Well, there's no other humor just like it. The humor of the army is concerned with itself. The army thinks the army is funny. Its humor is based upon itself, kidding itself and laughing itself off. I guess that goes for the rest of the country, too. That's why we could never tolerate a Hitler or a Mussolini. We'd watch them strutting and posing and burst out laughing and spoil everything. Yes, I suppose we would. Of course we would. When I'm officer of the day, I have to wear a pistol. That seems funny to the men. A guy in an office wearing a sidearm. My Barry, the other day I walked over to talk to a clerk about a report. He threw up his hand and said, Oh, don't shoot, Captain. And I read about a sailor in the ice-cold North Atlantic the other day. He was perched on an overturned lifeboat, as if you're riding a horse, and yelling, Hi-O Silver at the rescue ship. Oh, no. Barry, you can't beat people like that. Our peculiar sense of humor is our secret weapon. That's what I mean about our defense in depth. Now, we turn here. Oh, where's your house? You're looking at my house, Barry. This? This is just a barracks. Barry, please. This is B-O-Q. Bachelors, officers, quarters. I'll have you know I occupy the deluxe suite. Oh. Come on, Barry. This place was built years ago for the CCC. Well, maybe it's better on the inside. Oh, it is. There we are. Go on in, dear. How do you like it? Oh, Don. Ample room, six by eight. And look, I have got a ceiling. Only officer who has a ceiling. Ceiling? A few pieces of old beaver board. My night table. Don, it's a cardboard box that breakfast cereal came in. Uh, my wardrobe. Piece of gas pipe.  Barry, I've been living this way and loving it. Don, I'm going to speak to somebody about this. Oh, Barry. I wasn't kidding about loving the life and being with the men who make up this army. When I leave, I'll miss the men more than anything else. Most officers feel the same way. The men are everything to us. The men are the army. It's body and spirit and soul. And all we officers can do is skulk around the fringes of their vast brotherhood trying to get in. I won't pretend that it was an entire picnic. There were a lot of lonesome nights of the wind howling through the cracks of my deluxe suite and spraying the Arizona desert sand in my face. I won't pretend that I wasn't pretty excited when we got a chance. Barry and Sherwood and I to be together again after almost a year. The boy and I have been corresponding regularly and we both felt that Barry had behaved nobly during this year by herself. So we had a little surprise cooked up for her on the first anniversary of the family's second war. Shouldn't Sherwood be here by now? Oh, he'll be along. He couldn't get on the first bus. They're pretty crowded. Oh, I hope he comes soon. I have stakes. Hey, he'll be here. The three of us together again. Yes, Barry. You realize I've been in the army a whole year? Lost 28 pounds too by Gad. Oh, you're beautiful, dear. Well, I don't think I look like a retread anymore. It's Sherwood. That's his ring. Sherwood. Come on in, boy. I am father. I am mom. Oh, darling. I don't see it swallowing by. Seems he is. Yeah, gee, I missed you too, mom. Well, son, let's look at you. Hey, what's this?  You've been promoted, Sherwood. It'll be Sergeant Sherwood to you, madam.  Marine Sergeant, huh? Corresponding to Major in the Army. Say, will you look at the old man's streamline?  Boy, that retread is wearing thin. Oh. Sergeant, tell me, how did it happen? I don't know. A major asked me that the other day. I made a mistake, and he said, how did you ever get to be a sergeant? I said, I don't know, sir. And he said, well, I'm sure I'll never know. Well, there you are. Oh, I think something else is indicated here. Sherwood, could I speak to you a moment over here?   Now, what is this? A conference, Mrs. Huff. Oh, but she deserves it. Oh, but is she ready for it?  What is this all about? Let's go speak to her about that. Mrs. Huff. Yes? Mrs. Huff, we wish to make a citation. A citation? A citation. To bury Huff, our beloved wife. And mother. For conspicuous restraint, in permitting her son and husband to drink beer and eat peanuts and cheese and crackers, thereby spoiling their dinners. For recognizing the fact, at long last, that marines do not put on rubbers when it rains. Well, they should. For sewing buttons on our shirts and shoulder patches on our blouses. For not crying at bus stations, for allowing us to skip the salad. For yielding all of her privileges and prerogatives as boss of this family in the interest of the war effort. I, Captain Don Huff. I, Sergeant Sherwood Huff. We do both now, bury Huff. Elevate you for long and distinguished service to the rank of private first class. Congratulations, private first class, bury Huff. Oh, you nuts. Come here, both of you, before I cry. If you do, we'll break it a buck private, won't we, Sherwood? You'll bet we will, ma'am. All right then. I won't. But promise me one thing, will you, fellas? Sure. Anything? Make this the last war, will you?  One retread in the family is enough. Oh, Barry. There you are, Captain Retread by Donald Huff. This book, written with a tongue in the cheek and a twinkle in the eye, has its serious overtones, too, as you've heard. Obviously, we've been able to bring you only a few of the high spots of Captain Retread. So I suggest that you get this book and enjoy the rest of it. In a moment, I'll be back to tell you about our words at war for next week. Mr. Cartello? Thank you, Mr. Van Doren. Folks, the gasoline and oil companies are rendering a real service to car owners these days. First, by providing you with thorough check-up service, and second, by frequent reminders to take care of your personal transportation. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure in any car owner's language, and that goes for the finish as well as what's under the hood.  Let me suggest that you give your car a treatment with Johnson's Car New, the auto polish that does two things at once. Both cleans and polishes with one application. Car New is a liquid. So easy to use, you'll gladly do the job yourself. Make a note now to ask your dealer for Johnson's Car New, spelled C-A-R-N-U. Car New, which brings us to next week's program. Mr. Van Doren?  It's the story of a group of young Americans who fight not only against Nazis, but also against one of the most demoralizing enemies of all, against the awful curse of loneliness. The script has already been written, and it is as imaginative a piece of writing as I have read in a long time. The title is War Below Zero. I recommend that you be on hand to hear it. Now, this is Carl Van Doren inviting you to be with us again next week, and until then, goodbye.
