Salvation Army in
Final Plea for Aid
In Christmas Food
A final plea for a generous
offering was asked by the Salva
tion army today of all in fortun
ate circumstances so that those
less fortunate may nevertheless
enjoy a happy Christmas.
Contributions thus far have
been gratifying but far from ade
quate to pay for the many bas
kets of food the Salvation army
will distribute imong poor fami
lies in Jackson county, said Ad
lutant Charles K. Cox, chief exe
cutive here, in pleading for a
final manifestation of generosity.
"Drop a good-sized coin In our
kettles or the tins at various
stores throughout the county or
mail your contribution directly
to the Salvation army." Adjut
ant Cox pleaded. "Upon your
generosity depends the Christ
mas happiness of many Jackson
county families, for our Christ
mas baskets are (manced entirely
by these contributions."'
ALBERTA KNIPS
SAFE IN HAWAII
Mr. and Mrs. W. G. Knips of
Oak Grove Road were today in
receipt of a letter from their
daughter, Alberta, informing
them that she was well and ful
filling her duties as an army
nurse in Hawaii.
Miss Knips, who has been in
Hawaii at Schofield Barracks
since last July and is rated a
second lieutenant, went through
.the sudden Japanese attack on
' ".he islands December 7. The let
( ler to her parents was written
the following Sunday, but it was
not postmarked in Honolulu
'until December 17. The letter
had to pass the post censor.
"One week has gone by and
things are almost back in the
old routine," Miss Knips wrote.
"You can take off your hats
. to Uncle Sam's soldier boys.
There is not another lot in the
world. Nobody will ever take
their spirit or sense of humor
away from them.
"Don't worry about me. I am
okay. Say hello to everyone for
me."
SOLDIERS' FOLKS
MUST BE PATIENT
Parents should not feel con
" eerned if they do not hear for
ten days or two weeks from
their sons after they have en
J tered the armed forces of the
United States, a father told the
Mail Tribune today.
Saying that he knew of num
ber of mothers who worried be
cause they did not hear imme
diately from their boys, the
father pointed out that there are
so many routine things to do and
so many transfers from one
place to another to be made that
the new soldier or sailor has lit-
tie time or opportunity to write
' until he gets settled at his per-
manent station. So the father,
who did not hear from his own
son until ten days after he had
left here, advised parents to be
patient.

Civilian Defense Set-Up
Explained by Coordinator
The following IB the second of a series of Informational articles on
civilian defense prepared bj Frank Hull, coordinator of the Jackson County
Council of Defense:
FIRE
The protection from fire by in
cendiary and demolition bombs
is one of the most important and
most urgent to be understood by
the public and the civilian de
fense. In England every man. woman
and child function as firemen
first. All other activities such
as rescue. Red Cross, shelter and
protection are supplemental to
fire. In England the fire pro
tection group consists of four to
five people. A small hand
pump, four ordinary palls of
water, a shovel and a long hoe
are utilized. Full instructions
will be given on how they oper
ate later.
The reason for the necessity
of all participating in fire-fighting
is obvious when you under
stand that one airplane loaded
with incendiary bombs can drop
a series of bombs every 20 sec
onds over an area three miles in
length and each and every one
of these 1,500 to 2,00 bombs can
start a conflagration. Multiply
this by several airplanes and
you can see that in the space of
five minutes' time that an area
like Jackson county, including

thousands of fires.
Those who have gone through
this ordeal have solved the prob
lem of preventing these fires
from becoming great conflagra
tions by the simple method of
preventing the bomb from start
ing the fire.

DAYLIGHT SAVING
Washington, Dec. 23. W)
Senator Downey (D.-Callf.) wants
nationwide daylight saving ime
for the protection of public wel
fare and the conservation of es
sential resources, and he has
proposed that the senate put it
self on record as of the same
mind.
Senator McNary fR.-Ore.),
however, questioned whether a
simple resolution of the nature
Downey Introduced was in itself
enough to authorize setting
clocks ahead an hour In each
time rone, and whether actual
legislation might not be neces
sary. For that reason, the senate
minority leader objected to Im
mediate consideration of Dow
ney's resolution by which con
gress would "express approval"
of any steps by the president or
the war department, acting under
wartime powers, to change the)
time standard.
