2 Heppner Gazette Times, January 21, 1 943 Mrs. America Meets the War Rayon to Mrs. America these but to Uncle Sam it means war goods cords for military tires,, paratroop uniforms and lining for cords for parachutes, material for military uniforms. Perhaps you wonder how that delicate material in stockings or dress materials can be toughened to a war job. Ac tually the same ingredients and manufacturing technique are used for rayon as milady knows it and as it goes to war. The weight is superstrong for its military role, the main difference and it is made So far it has not been necessary to prohibit the manufacture of any rayon product because of its ex panding use for war. However, the range of hosiery colors has been reduced, and some simplification of construction may follow. . Home may have never been quite like this, but soon Mrs. America may have skillets made from heat resistant glass, dust pans of paper board and molded fibre, and ruga ted paper board. When store clothes hangers made from cor keeper's inventories run low on civilian goods made from steel and other critical materials, certain substitutes may save the day for some articles which otherwise may be out. There is more wood furni ture replacing metal furnishings, and wood also will be used for buckets, trays, washboards, vege table bins which have been made of metal. Glass, bone and non critical plastics also will be used for these articles. Butgeting homemakers should welcome the .OPA action in setting new and uniform margins for re tailers on nine food commodities coffee, canned fish, cooking and salad oils and hydrogenated and other shortening, corn meal, can ned citrus fruits and juices, " evap orated and condensed milk, pure maple syrup, pure corn syrup, flour and flour mixes. The uniform mark-ups will be applied to his net cost by your storekeeper to deter mine his ceiling prices. This is part of the OPA program designed to simplify price control for Mrs. America as well as her grocer. It is expected that this uniform mark-up procedure will be followed by broader action on other pro ducts. Packaging is the latest civilian convenience to lose more frills for the duration. The WPB has cut the production of boxes used by re tailer merchants for packaging merchandise, and at the same time board which can be used in the restricted the quality of paper manufacture of special gift boxes. The WPB expects to provide more containers for products that for merly were packed in tin by the new order. And speaking of packaging, the expression "wrapped in cellophane" is about to become more of a war casualty. Cellophane is the best known form of cellulose film which has become a much-needed war material. Among the packages which formerly had cellophane wrapping, but won't any more, are boxes of candy, tea, spices, pep per, unshelled nuts. If you used to find certain cartons of dried fruits with overwraps of this material ,or rice, barley, macaroni, noodles, ect, they'l be without from now on. The housewife in rural communi ties stands to benefit today from the government order limiting big store inventories. Her home-like merchant will be able to have a better stock of goods from which shse can choose since the order is intended to make a more equitable distribution of goods instead of al lowing them to accumulate in warehouses. So in these days of gas warehouses. So in these days of gas rationing, when trips into the city are difficult, Mrs. Rural America should find that she will have ac cess in her own community to the things her family needs.

" Although the Kenny method was a matter of pronounced skep ticism 'until three years ago, its amazing results since have won the endorsement of the American medical profession. After a thirty. year struggle for recognition the Australian Bush nurse came to this country in 1940 and through funds provided by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis she was established at the Univer sity of Minnesota. Further study at the Minneapolis General and University of Minnesota Hospi tals was made possible by the Foundation and has enabled scientists throughout the nation to carry on extensive research into the subject. 4 The Kenny method of treat ment consists of the use of hot applications plus a highly spec ialized method of restoring weak ened muscles to their normal use. It does away with splints and plaster casts. It is by no means a cure. It is, however, a tremen dous step forward in the treat ment of the disease, and in many cases eliminates painful and crip pling after-effects.

This was revealed very satisfactorily in the annual reports of the Church. Beginning the year with nearly $2,000 indebtedness, the church, under the leadership of T. J. Hum phreys, was able to clear itself of his obligation and still have some to spare. For the first time in 22 years the church is free of debt, and has an adequate surplus in the general fund with all bills paid. When most other Bible scshools have been showing a decrease in attendance, as national figures re veal, the Bible school of the church had an increase of over 15 percent. The increase in membership was in proportion. There were 23 baptisms and 13 statements of membership last year as compared to the same number in the last four years.
