Thursday, May 14, 1942, Vernonia Eagle, Vernonia, Oregon M rs. America Meets the War EDITOR’S War every on NOTE: touche* citizen. official every This and home column, based information government and prepared by the Office for Em ergency Management, the will war affect show* Mrs. how America and her home. Lights out! You can do your part to keep an unbroken power line to war industries and essential civilian sei vices by being careful at home. Turn off lights when they aren’t necessary, don’t leave the radio plrying to an empty room, anil conserve on electrical appli- ances. If you don’t the War Pro duction Board may find it neces- •.ary to cut down on electricity for commercial and industrial consum ers as well as in the home. If short: ges occur—and they have in some areas already—it’s the war effort that comes first. ... Let’s get down to brass tacks, ladies. Actually, however the tacks are steel’ nailheads which have been sprinkled promiscuously on shoes, The WPB says these steel nailheads, or brads, cannot go on serving as high style decorations. Ilf they do, shoemakers may be restricted in the amount of steel actually necessary in the basic construction of foot wear. * « a And here’s a note on Mr. Amer ica’s shoes. Although the WPB set aside the entire stock and produc tion of heavyweight sole leather for military and lend-lease requirements for shoes, don’t worry. The order affects only heavyweight outersole leather, and there is plenty of the ordinary lightweight outersoles, the kind that is used for most civilian purposes. War time means more neighbor hood cooperation, and one way it can work with benefits is to help in your city’s transportation prob lem. With the obvious decrease in transportation 'facilities, try pro moting group riding in private auto mobiles in a round-robin fashion, That goes for the master of the house as well as for any working wives or daughters. And if the schoolhouse is too far from home for children to walk, perhaps neighborhood mothers could get to gether and work out transportation on a planned basis. Still another way to help is to shop at a time which does not intrude on rush hours of buses and streetcar* al ready overcrowded with worker*. • « « Home sewing needs are expected to be amply taken care of for some time despite the WPB order shut ting down production olf domestic sewing machines after June 15. Of course, there has been an increase in the amount of sewing done at home, but there are about 20,000,- 000 women who own machines. And there’s a good supply from the stock of 800,000 in 1942 as well as this year’s production of 250,- 000. Statistics ordinarily are dry, tut not when you translate the 29 pounds of pig iron used in one electric sewing machine into enough steel for a .30 cal. machine gun. • • • Get that knife and breadboard cut again because the chances are that they will be called to active service. It looks as if ready-sliced loaves of bread may be another civ ilian war casualty. Unsliced loaves save both labor and paper. • ♦ • It won’t be too great a catas- trophe if you break a cup or if the cream pitcher falls to the floor dur ing dish washing. A recent OPA reg ulation set a ceiling on the price of many china and pottery articles. The regulation runs the gamut of Mrs. America’s cupboard—dinner ware sets, cooking and baking dishes and even refrigerator jars. * * * The kitchen brigade is shifting attention from refined white sugar to other sweeteners for cakes and cookies now that sugar rationing is in effect. I'f you use honey as a replacement, experts advise that the measurements 'be matched cup for cup. However, use one half the quantity of any liquid required. For example, revise the original recipe listing one cup of sugar and one cup of milk to one cup of honey and a half cup of milk. Other in gradients remain the same. This tip is contained in “Victory Begins At Home”, a pamphlet of recipes to match the homemaker’s sugar quota. It is distributed by the Con sumer Division of the OPA. • a * Think twice before tossing away that used lipstick container, empty cold cream jar, or last year's van ity case. They're all precious items because of metal and plastic short- ages, especially since many con- tainers will no longer be made of these materials. Each year that fancy row of toiletries and cosmet- ics on your dressing table takes its toll’ of critical goods to the tune of five million pounds of plastics, Legal Notices NOTICE OF PLAT AND VACATION TRUSTY AUTOMATIC— Still one of the A-my’s most effective weapons is the Browning automatic rifle. Like the old Springfield, it is the infantryman’s standby. This rifle embodies features upon which no improvements have been made.

DATED that 20th day of April’, 1942. Loel Roberts Citv Recorder, Citv of Vernonia 18 to 22 EQUIPPED FOR A RAID— Reconnaissance missions call for alert 'nds and sharp eyes. Hundreds of infantrymen are receiving ial instruction in this type of work to attain self-reliance and lenc*. They carry side-arms instead of riflea. 250,000 tons of steel, 2,250 tons of copper and 550 tons of zinc. That’s the explanation for the contemplat ed packaging of cosmetics in paper, cellophane or other less permanent containers. However, the WPB toil etries and cosmetics branch doesn’t expect to ration glamour yet. Per haps women will not use more than they need. Then the supply of lip sticks and other cosmetics will take care of beauty needs adequately. • * * Mrs. America should be able to keep the home fires burning less expensively after May 18, thanks to the government’s price freezing program.
