Medford's movie houses will

the nation-wide campaign just
inaugurated to sell war stamps
and bonds through the theaters.
The first film player to ap
pear here in connection with
the drive will be handsome curly-headed
Johnny Sheffield,
who, when he's not helping sell
Owar bonds ad stamps for Uncle
Sam, is playing the role of "Tar
zan, Jr.'' as the son of "Tarzan"
Johnny Weissmuller. He . will
arrive next Saturday as head of
the U. S Treasury's War Sav
ings Staff's "Buy Tanks For
Yanks" National Tour.

THIS Johnny
Has Got
HIS Gun
WHEN JOHNNY gets his
gun, he puts the nation's
needs first. His personal inter
ests he parks for the duration.
Standard has been imitating
Johnny so whole-heartedly
that the War Production Board
now sponsors an identical policy
for all U. S. business.
We, too, have parked our
peacetime interests. Our nation
has been attacked, and this
Company is for fighting back
with everything we've got. Our
aim now is to produce, produce,
product full-throttle, and
under our own man-power. For
Uncle Sam needs all the man
power there is.
We're studying every Stand
ard job. Will it help win the
war? Does it link oil-field and
battle-field? As our men leave
war-essential jobs for the colors,
we'll find replacements with
in our own organization. Jobs
not essential to the war will
be left vacant for the duration.
Job-priorities you may call it.
Or you may think of every
Standard employee enlisting as
an industrial soldier. Essentially
Standard is trying to solve its
own man-power problem with
out aggravating the nation's
man-power problem. That's why
Uncle Sam likes our plan. That's
why WPB is borrowing it in
tola to help all American in
dustry get its gun
