YOUR HOUSE AND THE WAR: Salvage Of all the nations on earth, we Americans must admit to habits of wastefulness known In no other country. We have lived so long in the midst of plenty that we have lost the art of utilizing everything of value. Now we have to learn to sal vage, re-claim, re-use ... every little item we live with. On the home front such economies are especially important. Every housewife can devise ways of turning things to use. But remember this: in order lo get long use out of the things you buy, you must buy them carefully in the first place. The close scrutiny, the rigid testing of Penney merchan dise.assures you good val ue .. . an ossurance you MUST have in everything you buy today.

This was in the section where a communique yesterday disclos ed a Cierman penetration of seven miles. Today's war bulletin described the new gain as "a small advance," and said allied bombers and fighters, including the French LaFayeite cscadrillo, were sinking in support of the French troops. Minor engagements continued in the liou Arada legion north of the French positions. 'Iliei" a German thrust was reported yesterday to have been repulsed after a hard mauling. Reports from the front said that the Cierman penetration in the ridged, ravine cut country southwest of I'ont Du Fahs cre ated a fluid front from which one of the decisive battles of iho Tunisian campaign might take form. Allied plans for a coiinler move were kept secret, of course, hut it seemed certain that one was in the making. French, British Units I Fighting French troops from j equatorial Africa joined with the Hritish eighth army in speeding Marshal Koimncl's retreat lo ward Tunisia. The news that the Fighting French actually bad made co:i tact with the onrushing liriiish after sweeping northward across hundreds of miles of Libyan il-s-ert was disclosed last night in a : communique from lirig. Gen. Lo C'lerc's headquarters. 1 Lo C'lerc said his troops now were "brilliantly taking part with their liritish allies in the advance on Tripoli," movi:i:: steadily forward on the eighth army's flank, thus compressing Rommel's fleeing Africa corps in to a narrow strip along the Me.li ' tcrranean coast. The Fighting French maneu ver, effectively sealing the arc j which the allies had thrown i around the axis forces in North Africa, was regarded here as a j death blow to any hope liommel J ! may have entertained of makine '' another stand against the eighth j army somewhere east of the Tunisian border. The Merlin radio, apparently preparing axis listeners tor the Tall of Tripoli reported last night that the city was alilae from continuous aerial bombard ment. Allied advices, meanwhile, said thai axis troops ami equip ment already were streaming , j westward from Trinnli toward i ! the Tunisian frontier, some inn miles away.
