Mrs. H. W. Doub, Moore County

tensely interesting report of the ac
tivities of this corps to Mrs. Paul

meeting of the services held in the
committee room at Red Cross head

13,892 men and make 8,261 sand
wiches, their present responsibilities

In her report Mrs. Doub also men

the Grey Ladies serving at Camp

The Aberdeen Corps is just one of
the hundreds of Canteen Corps in the

ed and equipped to undertake group
feeding in time of local disaster, na
tional emergency or war. In normal

structors with B. S. or B. A. degrees

I food and nutrition and with a mini-
I n.um of one year experience teaching
I in the first and the same degree
jwith a major in dietetics or institu-
j tional management within four years
! prior to this class - in the second
! course.
The Office of Civilian Defense and
the National American Red Cross
have an official agreement that Red
Cross assume responsibilities in
time of war and peace in feeding
groups needing such service in ep
idemics, fires, floods, hurricanes or
in cases resulting from sabotage or
war—victims, fire fighters, air war
dens and others engaged in protect
ing life and property. For this they
are efficiently organized and train
ed to a uniformity of procedure in
methods of food preparation^nd ser
vice that ■ they, may work speedily
without confusion.
Their uniform is of cotton in Bel
gian blue with matching coif with
Red Cross emblems on coif and pock

ficient women with a will to serve
in one of the most humble, yet most
essential of the Red Cross Corps join

they go to serve especially in time
of war.

PULPWOOD MEASUREMENT
An eight-man committee compos
ed of pulp manufacturers, forestry
experts and Department of Agricul
ture representatives' met in
Raleigh on March 17 to adopt a rule
for the measurement of all pulp-
wood sold in this State, according to
C. D. Baucom, State weights and
measures superintendent.
Baucom’s proposed method for
converting logs into cubic feet of
pulpwood was completed recently,
and is being sent to all delegates
attending the recent pulpwood con
ference held there.
In urging pulpwood producers to
request the measurement sheet, Bau
com said “It is now possible for any
farmer using this scale to take a
simple yardstick or foot rule to his
pile of pulpwood and tell the number
of feet of wood he has for sale.”

' X. iiat s a great editorial you just read
to us, Judge. 'VVhere did you say it appeared?”
“In 'The Stars and Stripes’...the news
paper of the U.S. Armed Forces in Europe.
Kind of gives us folks back home something
to think about, doesn’t it. Bill?”
“ It certainly does, Judge. Particularly the
last paragraph. Would you mind reading
that again?”
“Glad to. Bill. It says, ‘We can remember
L .. days of prohibition, when moonshine
whiskey made quick fortunes for bootleggers,
crooked politicians and dishonest police offi
cials. As a result, we claim we know what we
want in the way of liquor legislation and feel
those at home should wait until we return before
iniiiatingfurther legislation on liquor control’. ”
“Out of fairness to our boys over there
fighting. Judge, how could we disobey such
a wish?”
