and News Advertisers, Their
. Products and Activities
Mothers, wives and sweet
hearts of soldiers have solved a
periodic puzzle how to pack a
cake or cookies to keep them
from being crushed In the mall.
The answor Is pop corn.
' The ' puffy, fluffy pop corn
flakes make a soft, shock-
absorbing filler, .around the
cake or cookies. Besides, the
corn- Is feathcrllght and - helps
save postage. And last, but not
least, the pop corn Itself is as
edible as the coke and cookies,
so the "package from home" Is
double treat.

War Cancels Firemen's
Christmas Toy Project
'For the first time in 12 years,
Klamath Falls firemen will not
toll over Christmas toys for un
derprivileged children, it was
learned Tuesday from Fire Chief
Keith K. Ambrose.
The fire chlei gave several
reasons why his men would not
embark on the project this holi
day season. The chief said rub
ber to use on trike, wagon, doll
buggy and scooter wheels could
not be obtained for "love or
money." He also cited the fact
that most families are engaged
in gainful occupations and he
felt that this year, more than
any other since the last world
war, hos there been less need for
distributing toys to poor chil
dren. "If, In the future, such a need
arises," Chief Ambrose stated,
"you may be sure the firemen
will be on the job, lifting dolls'
faces and patching 1 up metal
toys."

and nobody else is going to fight it for mel" .
lt Is net enough for our Army to be as big and as well-equipped as the
enemy's It should also be at well-balanced In age groups. The Army
Invites American youth, to answer that challenge.
j "''The privilege of electing their branohes of the service can safely be
j given to the men In the younger age group for precisely the reason for
i which the Army needs them their adaptability and ready response to
