Complete Education . - neaaing Advertisements Grive Ideas On Modern Trends in Manufacturing By Maxlne Baren Important to general reading for moderns, we are told, are the comics. Some writers contend that to be really on your toes, you must know the latest developments in the case of Dick Tracy. the Bumsteads, and others. From the number of allusions made to comic strip characters in newspapers and on the radio it . would seem that this is true. But look carefully at adver tisements In the better magazines and newspapers and you'll rea lize too that it's important to head . advertisements carefully, not al ways for Ideas on what to buy, but to keep up with modern In ventions and new trends. Advertisements at their best , are really sources of education. YouH learn a lot about new radios that may help in selecting the kind best suited to your needs, youll find Informative material about new fabrics, about laundering and caring for them. Advertisements reveal coming uses for plastics and the reader will be aided In proper choice of products when new things come Into the market. Of course auto- v mobile advertisements give some mighty good information on what we will want in cars when our chance comes. This morning we noted an in formative advertisement titled, A Very Merry Christmas From the Meat Industry" which set us thinking about the importance of . common everyday commodities in this past war, and recalled the reasons why, when such products as meats, come into the market again In full abundance, well be Today 'a Neecllecpnft III t getting other things for home, too. All From Meat The illustration shows a collee tion of gifts beneath the Christ mas tree, and describes why these articles were missing from many trees the past few years. A footstool depends upon the meat industry for its curled hair stuffing and animal glue between joints. Drum and banjo heads, a belt, traveling case and hand bag are made of leather. Toilet soap of animal fats and oils, beauty cream of skin softening lanolin refined from wool fat. Gelatine in many candies and richness in caramels come from animal sources. Lard gives short ness to cookies. Carving set handles are made of polished horn; hair from ears of cattle makes "camels hair" in the pu;,n? brushes for children's paintir uti, military brushes are n , torn fine bristles. Anirr bones go into fine bone china, fine strands of gut make leaders on hand tied flies for fishing, technical gelatine holds picture taking ingredients on the service of films. Much of our health is depen dent on by products of the meat Industry too. Laboratories pro duce health giving chemicals. What is true of the meat in dustry is also true of others in a lesser way perhaps. So reading the ads isn't merely a case of checking on what you want to buy, but is part of your education. 1 I mss 0 (3TOnT7i.Ol LESS Bay City Urged To Purchase Water System COOS BAY, Dec. 27-P-Pur- chase of the water system here for $373,000 was recommended to day by the Coos Bay water dis trict commission.
