Call it Salisbury steak .ground
round steak or just hamburger, but
OPA rationing regulations set up a
definition of this popular meat item
including specifications for retail
dealers to follow. If a housewife
wants to use some of her point
stamps for round steak, chuck rump
or sirloin ground, she will buy these
in whole form, paying the correct
number of points, and then have
them ground to order. But if she
buys ready ground hamburger, de
fined as "beef ground from necks,
flanks, shanks, briskets, plates and
miscellaneous beef trimmings and
beef fat" he will not be required
to pay more than five points a
pound. Of course, the point stamps
needed to obtain meat, chajses,
canned fish and edible fats and oils
under the new rationing program
which went into effect March 29,
are the red stamps in War Ration
book two.
No increase in points for the pro
cessed foods rationing program is
intended for the new ration period.
During April Mrs. America will
have 48 points to sepnd for her
purchases of canned, frozen and
dried fruits and vegetables and all
soups. These points will be ob
tained by the blue stamps in War
Ration Book two bearing the let:
ters D, E, and F. The blue stamps
A, B, and C were out March 31.

duction. If some of your precious
linen possessions bear the names of
France, Belgium, Austria, Czecho
slovakia stamped in the selvage,
realize these are truly relics. Other
linen -making countries of Russia,
Ireland, Switzerland, certainly can
not spare much labor for non-essentials,
and neither, and neither is
there cargo space for luxuries. So
obviously, handkerchief linen, dress
linen, drapery and upholstery linen
and table damask should be hand
led with greatest of care for a de
crease in their availability is
inevitable.
Want something new and differ-,
ent for your family's dinner: Shark
steak is a suggestion of the office of
the coordinator of fisheries, which
reports that war has introduced
soupffin shark meat into the Ameri
can kitchens. It was revealed that
tasty shark, in either kippered or
lightly smoked form is becoming
more available. Kippered shark is
said to have a flavor similar to
smoked salmon ,and it is also pale
pinkish orange in color.
Costume jewelry counters will
continue to intrigue Mrs. America
even if there are necessarily sub
stitutes for critical metals. Look for
bracelets of straw and plastic ear
rings. Pins of wood, shell necklaces
and glass beads are other items
which brighten costume jewelry '
counters.
And still on the department
store's main floor, a look at the
glove counter shows little change
by the war so far in dress gloves.
However, goatskin, horsehide and
capeskin are less available, and
many skilled glovemakers are now
engaged in war production. As for
handbags, war needs have a prior
ity on leather, and the frames must
be made of non -critical plastics.
Neither are metal nor critical plas
tics allowable for zippers. Further
on the subject of leather goods,
luggage and small leather accessor
ies no longer can be made of cattle
hide, calf or kid leather.
Colorful red and blue stamps con
tained in War Ration Book two
may be appealing to Junior as a
plaything, but it's up to Mrs. Amer
ica to keep this precious book out
of the hands of her youngsters.
Take for example one case reported
by the west coast war price and ra
tion boad of a tot gathering up
family ration books and distribut
ing stamps to people passing his
home. Perhaps, he got a paddling,
but the board declared his mother
needed "reprimanding for not taking
better care of family ration books.
The OPA says it's up to bookhold
ers to guard War Ration Books one
and two carefully to prevent loss,
stealing or mutilation. Anyone
needing to replace a ration book
must apply to his local war price
and rationing board on Form No. R
194. A board may hold up the is
suance of a replacement for as
long as 60 days if it finds that the
book was lost or stolen through
negligence on the part of the owner.
And many boards also require ap
plicants to report the case to the
police.
RETURNING TO TAKE
CHARGE OF HOSPITAL
Mis3 Mildred Dowry, former
manager of the Heppner hospital is
scheduled to return to Heppner to
morrow and resume direction of the
hospital. Miss Clowry resigned her
position about a year ago and was
succeeded by Mrs. Joseph Eskel
son. Upon the resignation of Mrs.
Eskelson Miss Clowry was pre
vailed upon to return.
Mrs. Annie Clowry, aunt of Miss
Clowry, also will return here to
make her home.

NOT just a bolt of Yard Goods, it's much more than
that! It's the hundreds of useful and pretty things
into which the clever fingers of women can transform it.
In a sense, this simple bolt of Yard Goods' symbolizes a
great American business the J. C. Penney Company.
From the outside this first Pen
ney store looked far from im
pressive. Inside, though, people
discovered it was different. For
it set a new pattern of low-cost
retail store service as neighborly
and as typically American as
ride-sharing and quilting bees!
THE PENNEY IDEA GREW TODAY PENNEY
STORES DOT THE MAP!
Kemmerer took to that first
Penney store! So did Moscow,
Idaho later on. And Salt Lake
City, Utah. And San Antonio,
Texas. And today there are over
1600 Penney stores in all 48
states.
For every hundred dollars
worth of sheets, or blankets, or
shoe?, or yard goods the Penney
store sells in Peoria, Illinois or
Scranton, Pennsylvania, or Savan

Mr. Penney didn't think "How
much can I take!" but "How
much can I give?" He cut out
useless frills, charge accounts
and deliveries; pared prices to
the bone; preferred many sales
at small profit to a few at large

Today Penney stores from
