And now, ladles and gentle men, wo shall turn to our short- wave listening posts ovorsens, where our reporters with bark on will tell you about tho fight ing forests of other lands. Coma In, England! ... . . . This Is tho'Forest of Dean, in Gloucestershire, England's first and largest Nnllonnl Forest Park. Thrco centuries ngo nil of the old ouks but ona wero cut from the 20,000 acres of tho For est of Dean. This one, called the Newlnnds Onk, yet stands, In Its ngu of a thousand years, with n younger forest or great ouks about it. In the earth bencnth the Forest of Denn are coal mines. Timbers cut from tho onks frnme tunnels nnd slopes, where men labor to koi-p conl rolling out to steel mills nnd wnr plants. Crews of women work In the famed for est, cutting up boughs and stems nnd burnfng charcoal from them, nnd tho charcoal goes to tho steel mills. In Cumberland nnd In Scot land thousands of axes arc swinging from the brawny nrms of Engineer troops called Forest Fusiliers, to produco wood for war . , . Timber Slave at And now, a report from an un derground short-wnve station In Germany.' Jenn Buson, torn from his fnnv lly nnd a bit of wooded land in tho Vosgcs Mountains of France, nnd Louis Knrsnk from tho pin- erics of Polnnd, nre fnlllng pines (or Hitler In tho Black Forest of Nazi Gcrmnny. From daylight to dark they chop nnd snw under bayonets. They arc fed thin soup made of potatoes, rutnbngns nnd cabbage, with ersatz bread. Tho Frenchman may have hope. The Polo has nono. His homo was burned, his wife nnd children murdered. Ho works as a ma chine works a broken machine, Wood Is the life of tho Nazi wnr monster. Wood gas propels motor enrs, tractors nnd trucks.- Wood mnkes planes, explosives bridges, ships, railroad cars. Chemistry makes wool-like cloth ing from wood cellulose, and s thousand other such substitutes Proteins nro distilled from' wood for cnttlo feed. Let tho forests of Germany bo burned Into blnck snags, nnd tho Nnzls would bo forcod to surrender within 60 days. ... Whoro Loggers are Women . . Como in, Moscow arc the forests fighting in Russia? , , The Red Army fights with wood. Plywood fighting planes knlfo out of winter skies to machine-gun tho Nazis In their holes, Timber boats and barges keep tho giant traffic of men nnd munitions rolling on the Volga. Timber streams to the Front for pontoon bridges, for tank traps, for fortifications, for dugouts, for field base hospitals and tho roods through mud and marshes aro kept usable with timber corduroyl Tho homes of Moscow and other cen tcrs nro kept warm with wood fuel, leaving coal for the wnr plants. Women full tho pines, get out the logs and saw tho lumber, for the most part. Tho women of Russlu fight with axes and saws as their men fight with machines nnd guns. . . , Wood for Zeros ... Whnt do wo hear from tho Philippines? ... In our islands the J iips have taken over the t'inber Industries, and shiploads of logs nnd squares move stead ily to the sawmills and plywood plants of Osaka. Here Filipino men of tho woods nro enslaved. like tho Poles In Germany, at the work of producing wood to make the Zeros of . tho Japs, Their only hope is in Mac- Arthur's, "I came through, and I shall return." . . . Wood for Mac Arthur ... Como In, Australia, and let us hear an example of how wood is helping the fighting return of MacArthur and his men . . . This report is from a spot in tho for ests of Tasmania, whore a giant swamp gum is about to fall. For two and a half dnys a pair of timber-fullers, with axes and an eight-foot crosscut saw, have been working to bring this giant gum to earth and send it to war. Tho scarf cut alone is six feet and six Inches deep. The diam eter, nt tho height of tho cut, is 15 feet, five inches they're driving in the wedges "Tim-ber-r-ri" is tho shout and the great gum crashes down I . , .

Especial ly Is there a crying need for sponges. Our shipments to the army depots fall far short of meeting the need. This is partly duo to many new chapters just starting their programs and partly-to the fact that gauze has been held up in shipment to our larger chapters. But it does mean that each chapter must call in all the forces that can bo mustered in order to get this Job done. We must not let up on our standards of work, but wo must try to bring more wo men into the program, which will mean more days of work ana longer nours. Klamath has sent many men to the armed forces; don't you think it will hearten these men to know that the women of Klamath are making a sincere effort in dally work for the Red Cross? These dressings that we make here may go to our own boys; if not, to others who are just as dear to another woman. News from Pomona grange! On November 14 a program was put on by the grange at the Alta- mont school, featuring a patri otic rally. E. A. Boyd was in charge. A free-will offering was given which amounted to $15.32 uood workl Our quota of comfort kits Is still unfilled. Theso are the last pieces of equipment given to our fighting men before they embark for overseas duty. The kits are filled with necessary articles, such as soap, cigarettes, shoe polishing cloths, writing pads and pencils, chewing gum, 40-inch shoe laces, razor blades, sewing kit, etc. The bags after ward serve the men in uniform as a place to put their personal possessions, their letters, their cherished photographs. The cost of filling one com fort kit by the Red Cross is $1.50. Stop in at Red Cross headquarters on your lunch hour or next time you are downtown and look them over; we are sure you would like to send at least one. But do it now so they'll have their comfort kit for Christ mas.
