Mrs. America Meets the War Mrs. America's choice of colors can run the usual gamut except for nine vat dyestuffs, golden orange, olive, green, one shade of yellow, two shades of brown and three shades of olive—which are used to dye armed forces uni forms. However, available dye sup plies for civilians, being restrict ed, go farther by making colors lighter. That’s why navy blues, deep wines and purples are a shade or two lesq intense and vivid reds have a softer glow. Print designs are smaller and spaced farther apart on lighter backgrounds. Lacy patterns give the effect of an all-over print without using as much dye, and plaid with white background is a dye saver. The conservation pro gram means 55 million pounds of dyes and the chemicals which go into them are made available for war production—toluene for TNT; benzene for high octane gasoline and synthetic rubber; phnol for sulfa drugs; and anilin for explos ives. Vernonia Eagle_______ Thursday, June 24, 1Ò43 Tips on writing to men in the armed forees may be gained from a check by the office of war in formation on the kind of letters fellows like to get from home. Most boys want to know how things are going economically for the folks back home, that the fam ily is doing everything possible to aid the war effort, that they are anxious for the boy’s return, that the family is “okay and busy.’’ Remember this when covering the news of the communily in your letters. Soldiers like to hear the latest about their friends, par ticularly those in the armed ser vice. So include as much news as possible about friends at home, girls the soldier knows if they’re single, changes in social relations, past events, places he used to go and the community’s night life. And now there should be more room on library shelves to accom odate a greater number of books if they’re of the war model type. For publishers are making books lighter and easier to handle. It’s so they can manage with wartime restrictions on publishing mater ials that lighter-weight paper stock is being used, that margins are narrower, the space between LUMBER — SHINGLES — VENEER WHOLESALE AND RETAIL See my bargains in Kiln Dried Lumber at $12 per M and up.

Bill Pringle, Sr. Mist Rt. 2513 Tongues of the victims of the grade crossing accident shown here were wagging faster than the wig-wag warning signal as the car approached the grade crossing - wagging so fast the three occu pants of the car didn’t see the crossing watchman either, holding his STOP sign high. Two of the talkers were‘killed when the train hit them, including the driver, the car was badly dam- -fed and the train delayed one l.our. lines of print is being reduced and’ the number of pages is being de creased. However, that doesn’t mean that there will be fewer books published. Unless an army of volunteers can be recruited locally to staff canneries, Americans will have less canned goods next year. And this is an important step in the production of food vital to win ning the war which can be taken by Mrs. America. In most commun ities the local United States Em ployment Service office can give you information about working in a cannery. It is expected that in nearly ’ all communities house wives or employed women and others who cannot give up their full time will be willing to devote parts of days or nights or a cer tain amount of time each during the season to this essential war food production. Here’s a chance to become an important part of the army’s or ganization for air defense. Be a volunteer of the Army Air Forces Aircraft Warning service for right now there is an urgent need for people living near thq coastline of the United Stateg to sign up for this duty. If you live on the West Coast, apply through your local defense council or write to Commanding General, IV Fighter Command, Oakland, California. Every effort will be made to fit the applicant’s available hours into some part of the service. The surviving occupant of the car said all three had been con versing, diverting the driver’s mind from concentration on what always should be a full-time job for a driver—driving his car. Tve National Safety Council is conuuctiug a special campaign to stop these accidents, which every day delay 38 trains a total of 22 hours — a blow at transportation facilities which the nation cannot afford, least of all in wartime.
