I TOWN end FARM f ,1 -a WARTIME < . i Prepared by OFFICE OF WAR INFORMATION BUTTER SUPPLY DOWN QUESTIONS WORRY A salute to the wise motorist who avails himself of every oppor tunity to keep Amer ica’s transportatibn rol ling. It’s all up to you. You automobile can be a source of income and pleasure, a downright indispensible asset to your country in time of war, and a God-send for that emergency that may arise—IF you keep it in good repair. Our réputation is unique, it stands alone, built on the merits of long and faithful ser vice to this community. When you need us do not hesitate to call. Vernonia Auto Co. A Safe Place to Trade IN THE COUNTY VETS Then there is our pedigreed brood sow. My daughter insisted on naming her Gertrude because she looked like her name was Gertrude—pure feminine reason ing—so she has been Madame Gertie ever since. From the rear view she looks exactly like a very fat upper-society dame teetering along on high heels, and when you meet her face to face- you expect her to raise a supercilious lorgnette and snub you into knowledge of your pro per place in society. When 1 serve Madame’s dinner, she is liable to snort in a refined man ner and give me a look which conveys very plainly that if I am slow again she will certainly call the head-waiter and take the matter up with the management. The other day I met a neigh bor and his cow. Their gentle, friendly faces looked so much alike that I chuckled softly to myself as I went away, but the man was extremely» nice-looking and so was the cow, so neither need feel insulted if they read this. Now in my case-I had a Holstein come off the range last fall in bad condition. She was thin and nervous, wild-eyed at times, and looked so much like me that I kept her out of sight for fear others would notice the unflattering resemblance and in jure her feelings by alluding to it. Finally, in desperation, I put her up and began pouring the feed to her. Scon she was sleek and shiny and a credit to her sex. The result was so satisfac tory in her case that I have de cided to have the Big Boss put me up and give me a sack or two of ground barley. It might im prove my appearance as much as it did hers. I’ve nevir lived much with an imals, except cats and dogs, un til I came down here, but the more I know about them the more interesting I find them. We are told that the animals are on the second life wave, the one just below the human. They are, herefore, our younger brothers, and we, as elder brothers, are responsible to a great extent for their evolvement. So, why should n’t we look and act alike at times?
