No social worker is gonna do Hything about It, In particular, xcept keep a nice job by talking bout> it and by keeping the unch clubs in a lather on how o fix it. And back to the mamas and apas? the cavorting ones ? the nes who allow their off-spring o run wild versus staying home hemselves and keeping the oungsters under control. These avorters will disapperin' time, 'he wheel chair or the under ak&- will finally get them. The namas and papas of tomorrow rill be the Girl Scouts and the Joy Scouts of today. We can re y upon them. They will be in he saddle 15 years hence. In the meantime, the police an handle the bad eggs quite landily if the uplifters don't >arge in. A zoot-suitrer should )e no great problem. Yours with the low down, JO SERRA . o Labor Stabilization Employers and workers in the Raleigh area, after about seven wepks of operation under the Em ployment Stabilization Plan, are becoming more familiar with its provisions and on the whole are cooperating in its aims, it is stated by Manager Craven, of the Raleigh office of the U. S. Em ployment Service, an agency of the War Manpower Commission. Many questions have arisen on the provisions of the plan and many employers and workers have contacted the office to get the answers. Manager Craven said. Inquiries are not as num erous as they were during th? first few weeks of the plan. "The chief thing to remember," said Manager Craven, "is that a worker employed in an essentia] industry cannot quit his job and accept a job is another essential industry without a statement ol availability from his last employ er. or from the U. S. Employment Service. If he is seeking a jot further away than "normal com muting distance, he must have this statement of availability from the local office of the Em ployment Service. "Another point to remember,' Manager Craven stated, "is thai this Stabilization Plan is not s job "freeze" order. It does per mit workers to change jobs, bu: in an orderly, directed manner Conditions under which a workei may request and receive a state ment of availability are: (1) when he is discharged. (2) wher he is laid off immediately or foi seven days^or more, (3) when th? employment is not using his highest skill or at full time, ant (4) when he has compelling per sonai reasons for a change.

Yes ? up to a point- But the' Quartermaster Department has' found that ? in spite of the wealth of variety in today's Army diet! ? some soldiers, particularly new j recruits, actually don't eat 1 enough. I After, all. the Army mess ta-i | ble is exactly like a football! | team's training table. The food served there is carefully planned I to aid in the physical develop ment of the soldier. And the Army has discovered certain lit tie ways to increase Johnny Doughboy's apifetite. For instance, today's soldier is no longer required to stand at attention before sitting down at; : his mess table. When the bugle founds out the Army equivalent; of "Come and Get It!" the sol jdier does just that ? ? . with no - preliminaries to dull his appe-l I the. ? ' I Another wiy the Army has t found to add to a soldier's enjoy I ment of his food ? and therefore 1 increase his consumption of all I those carefully prepared vitamins. ' minerals, and proteins ? is to al ? low the men to smoke during meals. Measured tests run by ' : the Quartermaster's Department ? show that food consumption ac s I tually increaed by 5% when sol ? (diers were permitted to smoke ?jcigare'ttes at the mess table. "Smokes." of course, play a prominent part in many phases' of the life of a soldier. When ever you see a news photo of soldiers at ease, you're apt to see them enjoying a cigarette. Par ticularly among American troops j overseas, cigarettes ? real Amer- I ican ""cigarettes ? are highly priz- j ed and almost never present in sufficient quantities. What kind of cigarettes do Un cle Sam's fighting men prefer? Well, records show that the fav orite cigarette is Camel. That is true not only with men in the Army, but with Sailors, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen as well. ' Sales records from the service] men's own stores ? Post Ex- j change. Sales Commissaries, Ship's Service Stores. Ship's J Stores, and Canteens ? show that j Camels are first with men in all branches of the service. Further proof that Uncle Sam's fighting men like their smokes is given in' the service man's pref-, erence in gifts from home ? it's a carton of his favorite brand of cigarettes. Tobaico dealers, re cognizing that Camels are the favorite among service men, are equipped to help you in properly wrapping, addressing, and stamp ing your gift of Camels to the man in the service. Onlooker: "Why does that cow seem so happy while being milk ed?" Farmer: "She's a baseball fan and likes the Yanks!" o ? On fay Day, Buy Bonds ? Olive Promoted William R.
