USED BY 4-H I E BUSESMAYB SCOUT GAMP 0 HAVE SUMMER GIF ATTENAG PUm for 4-H club lummer camp forged ahead after an an nouncement by the school board that buses would be made avail able for the trip to Lake o' the Woods. Use of the buses is sub ject to final clearance by the of fice of defense transportation, however. Dates for the summer camp were set for July 25 to July 31 for the girls, and the week of August 1-7 for the boys. Attend ance this year was limited to 100 each week, because of damage done by snow to buildings at the camp. A dormitory and a crafts building were put out of com mission and will be replaced by tents, which cannot house as many. Members of the club nine years old or older may attend the camp either on scholarships or by paying their own way. Mem bers with scholarships will be given priority over those who pay their own way u tne iuu limitation is reached. Reserva tions for those awarded scholar ships will be held open until July 15, and after that anyone may apply. Plans are underway to use old' er members of the club as coun cilors at the camp to assist in taking the groups through their respective programs, to handle camp fire programs, and to work with the campers in their living Quarters. - Older members who wish to go to camD as councilors should contact Clifford Jenkins, county leader for the 4-H clubs as soon as possible. There will be a meet- ine of the councilors on July 1 1. In determining whether or not there would be a summer camp this year, the county war board, the directors of the chamber of commerce, the county court, and all 4-H club leaders were con tacted for their views. They were all of the opinion, said Jen kins, that the camp should be held because of the need for this type of education , particularly during periods of stress and war. Jenkins and Mrs. Winnifred K. Gillen will be in charge of the camp. It will be held at its reg ular organizational camp site at Lake o' the Woods. Reservations have already been made for 75 campers.. . .'..,..-.. Transportation lews E PART TIME HELP -The urgent need for more spare-time workers to help Southern Pacific maintain its tracks in this vicinity was em phasized again today by J. E Bick, local agent for the com pany. "Southern Pacific is short several thousand section men for its full-time crews in Jhe Pacific coast area," Bick said, "and is appealing to business and professional men, students and others, who have time to spare on weekends, to help re lieve the shortage. The proper maintenance of railroad tracks, he pointed out, is necessary for the speedy' han dling of the ever-growing war traffic. For this reason, persons who are able to devote time to track work will be contributing directly to the country's war effort. ' Since the campaign to enlist the services of spare-time work ers on section crews was launch ed by Southern Pacific several months ago, Bick said, ' much valuable assistance has been re ceived, but the company has im mediate need for many - more trackmen. , Weekend and holiday employ ment on the railroad offers local men not only an opportunity to engage in vital war work but also to earn extra money. Full information regarding this work may be obtained from Local Agent J. E. Bick. . ! E. G. Childers, Southern Pa cific employe, is on his vaca tion. He is expected back about July 15. l .jsc; - p I'M iJl Licking an -old swimmin' hole," these lads and lassies on New York's lower East Side find nr hydrant makes a good substitute.

Follow Instructions for Best Food Canning Results Using Wartime Jar Caps Housewives doing home-canning with wartime jar caps arc cautioned to. follow explicitly the instructions of. the cap man ufacturers if they wish to avoid unhappy experiences and waste in their patriotic effort to con serve. Spoilage of food and breakage of jars is certain to result, if instructions are not followed to the letter. Proper methods and careful canning will insure excellent results, more important in the present food situation than at any other time. The Glass Top Seal fruit jar cap, a wartime product devel oped to conserve metal, requires careful use, according to the home service departments of fruit jar manufacturers. This cap consists of a metal band, glass lid and rubber ring. With these three widely varied ma terials making up its compon ent parts, the cap must be used according to important but eas ily followed instructions. First of all, the cap is not recom mended for and must not be used in oven canning. If the food is processed (cook ed in a jar), one inch of space must be left in the top of the jar when filled, in order to al low room for expansion. If an open kettle is used, one-half inch space must be left in the top of the jar. The next step is to place the rubber around the projection on the bottom side of the lid. and the lid must then be placed so that the rubber lies between it and the top edge of the jar. All jars on which top seal clos ures, either glass or metal, are used must have smooth top edges. The band is then applied tightly and immediately loos ened slightly, about one-quarter of a turn. Bands must fit loos ley during the processing, or cooking. If an open kettle is used, the bands are to be screw ed tight as soon as the jar is filled. After the processing is completed, the bands are screwed tight to complete the seal. The bands may be re moved 12 hours after the can ning operation. At no time should the filled jars be turned upside down. The housewife who takes no chances on variance from any one of these simple but impor tant steps is assured of success and the enjoyment of the de licious flavor of home-canned foods this winter. Dan Cupid Holds His Own Despite Scarcity of Men Giacomini Wins Pet Contest in Parade Anthony Giacomini of Merrill emerged as the winner of the pet c o n t e s t in the Buckaroo Days parade on Monday. His entry was a small rubber tired cart drawn by a Shetland pony. It was driven by three small girls. -If Anthony has not yet re ceived his prize, it. is waiting for him at the chamber of com merce. - - Little Dan Cupid seems to be holding his own in Klamath Falls despite the fact that sin gle men are getting somewhat scarce in these h yar . parts due to their joining the army or leaving for war industries and the fact that many marriage applications and ceremonies are handled at or close to the bus- band's army camp. Surprising enough there were six more marriages here this June than last, and only a few less than in the years of 1940 and 1941 before the war start ed. There were 26 marriages per formed locally last month; 20 performed in June, 1942; 32 in that month in 1941, and 29 in 1940. Quite a few older persons around middle age tied the knot this June, as did several young sters just out of high school, ac cording to the marriage appli cations, filed in - the county clerk's office. The rest of the applications were - made up of soldiers and their brides and a few. men of 'draft age apparent ly, deferred because of occupa tion or physical handicaps. . DREAM COME TRUE LAURENS, S. C. VP) Wouldn't it be wonderful," Mrs. Margaret Wilkes was writ ing to her husband, Lieut. S. M.
