POETS CORNER
SPRING ARRIVES 4
Over vales and purple mountains
Spring arrived, without a care,
Trailing birds and bees and flow
ers
Bllthsomely in sun-drenched air.
Dancing in and out the bowers,
Lightly skipping on the lea,
Scattering now and then a show
er, ,
As she tripped along with glee;
Till she came to sunny Roseburg
In the first faint dawn of day.
Then, folding down her gauzy
wings,
She smiled and nestled there to
stay.

Swallows Return to
Capistrano on Schedule
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO,
Calif., March 20. (AP) The
swallows returned to mission San
Juan Capistrano yesterday St.
Joseph s day right on schedule.
Preceded by a small advance
flock, the main band began ar
riving at 11:40 a. m. and contin
ued to come in flocks of 50 to 100
at intervals.
There was little fighting be
tween the swallows and the
swifts and sparrows which occu
py their nests under the mission
eaves during the winter. The ad
vance group apparently had dis
couraged the interlopers, and only
a few were on hand when the
main band of swallows arrived,
said Father Arthur Hutchinson,
mission padre.

Mrs. America Meets the War . . .
EDITOR'S NOTE: War touches
every home and every citizen.
This column, . based on official
government information and pre
pared by the Office For Emer
gency Management, shows how
the war will effect Mrs. America
and her home.
Many women, particularly on
the Pacific coast, will be relieved
to know that the government is
now preparing to provide gas
masks for all civilians who are
likely to need them. The money
has already been appropriated by
congress $100,000,000. Part of
this money is being used for gas
masks, the rest for auxiliary fire
fighting equipment, stretchers,
cots, and other civilian supplies.
Warning: Don't under any cir
cumstances buy masks from pri
vate retailers; such sales are pro
hibited by government order, be
cause the masks are not made ac
cording to approved specifica
tions. You can be assured that
masks will be furnished to every
one, for adequate protection must
not depend upon willingness or
ability to buy.
Mrs. America will not only
have to do more walking, but she
will have to do it on second-grade
soles. Eighty per cent of the top
grade leather soles are to be set
aside for the manufacture and re
pair of military shoes. Civilians
will get the other twenty percent
and the entire lower-grade out
put. Housewives are getting help in
their fight to hold down the cost
of living. Quickly following the
price regulation on canned vege
tables and fruit, a price ceiling
has been put on 90 per cent of
America's pork products, includ
ing ham and bacon. In the strug
gle with the budget, this regula
tion will prove pretty important
because pork products make up
more than half of the whole
meat supply of the nation.
If a Victory Garden is to he
your next project, stop and con
sider. There may be a number of
reasons why it would not be prac
tical or economical for you to get
out and dig. If you live in a large
town or city, you 'probably have
no adequate or advantageous
place to grow vegetables. If
you've never done much more
than pamper an occasional ger
anium, you probably shouldn't
undertake this kind of work.
Seeds, fertilizer, tools and energy
are all at a premium and must
be used to the best advantage. A
new pamphlet Just published by
the department of agriculture
called "Victory Gardens" will
ByGalbraith
orf.
guide you in making a decision.
Even if you are an experienced
gardener,' you will probably be
interested in the concise uirec
tions for planning and care of a
small vegetable garden. The
pamphlet may be secured from
the Superintendent of Docu
ments, Washington, D. C, for five
cents.
First the war took tin and irid
ium, copper and lead, away from
the jewelry makers, and now it's
put a ban or rhodium. Rhodium
is a by product of platinum and
is used especially to give a non
tarnishing finish to such articles
as compacts and cigarette cases.
Soon, although there's plenty of
gold and silver, there just won't
be any "junk jewelry" metals
left. The manufacturers will have
to use their ingenuity, and that
will mean baubles of wood, shells,
glass and painted macaroni!
Shirts for your husband,' pa-
l jamas for Junior, housedresses for
I yourself all have risen so sharply
in price that a temporary celling
has been set to freeze maximums
at the prices prevailing between
March 7 and 1L This order in
cludes all finished piece goods
made of cotton, rayon or their
mixtures. Even the frozen prices
are not what the government con
siders reasonable, and permanent
regulations at still lower prices
arc now being worked out.
Mouton, that warm, good-looking,
Inexpensive fur which has
been many a college girl's and
young wife's favorite may not be
so inexpensive this next season.
Mouton is merely the name for
shearling (lamb or sheep skin)
that has been fur dressed, and all
shearlings are in high demand by
the army for aviation and Arctic
clothing, as well as for gloves,
helmets and boots. The price ceil
ing on shearlings has just been
removed so that maximum sup
plies may be made available for
these purposes. So your next
mouton Jacket will undoubtedly
cost more if you can get It!
Coffqe is one food It wouldn't
pay to hoard if you wanted to.
As every good housewife knows,
roasted coffee does not retain its
flavor If stored for any length
of time. Anyway, the office of
price administration says that
stocks of coffee and cocoa in
warehouses, both wholesale- and
retail, arc adequate for some
time.
Glass to the rescue! It's going
to fill one of the biggest war jobs
of the year as it turns into mil
lions of Jars, bottles, glasses and
cups needed for civilian canning
