Mrs. America Meets the War War is war, but there is one part cf the carriage trade that expects tc carry on. The babies of Ameri­ ca will continue to have carriages, strollers and walkers—that is, as long as the more critical materials are not u ed and only a minimum amount of iron or steel goes in­ to the conveyances. In other words, there should be all wood models— except for steel axels and fittings —for Mrs. America’s juflior. From August first on, iron, steel, gold, and silver are the only metals which may be used. But here is an idea of the restriction placed on the use of iron and steel for these nur­ sery world products. During an or­ dinary year the baby carriage in­ dustry used 14,000 tons of steel. After the WPB order goes into ef­ fect, the same number of articles will be put out with only 3,000 tons of steel. Mrs. America, roll up your sleeves and rally to the home front’s cur­ rent battle cry—the rubber sal­ vage campaign. Patriotic houseclean- ing means routing out every ounce of scrap rubber from the cellar to the attic of your home. Remember no bit of rubber is too small, too worn or too old for you to take to your neighborhood filling station foi the rubber salvage collection. 1 ou will receive a penny per pound of reclaimed rubber. Look around your kitchen for old rubber gloves, aprons, sink stoppers or preserve jar rings. Any old shower caps, soap dishes, drain plugs, rubber sponges, hot water bottles or ice lags today Even the tiny, rubber bulbs from droppers in the medi­ cine chest are worth reclaiming. And rubber hair curlers, girdles and combs are on the liist. Even the nur­ sery can contribute baby pants nip­ ples, teething rings and toys.

The army itself is trying to conserve wool, and as a result the Quarter­ master Corps has developed cotton comforters to replace wool blankets for the barracks in the United Slates. Even the army’s winter un- aerwear will have more cotton— yes, long underwear containing 50 and 75 per cent cotton. SOLDIER'3 FOXHOLE DIVERSION—Private Vincent Costante at Fort Benning, Georgia, models a sculptured likeness of the giri back home. Active service in the foxholes has no terrors for the United States Army soldier of 1942. Possessed of talent, ingenuity and a will to win, he finds diversion wherever he may be. It is an old American trait. At Valley Forge after a dreary winter had ¡passed the Continentals played a game which since has been evolved into baseball. Confederate cavalrymen with “Jeb” Stuart rode their best when they joined tn rollicking song, and veterans of the old 155th Pennsylvania Infantry used to tell of their lively card games on the rocks of Little Round Top during Pickett's charge at Gettysburg. It’s the same indomitable spirit that so long has kept chins up over on Corregidor. « Farmers Need Spark Arresters Verrorla Fnip cov-
