GO-TO-SCHOOL CAMPAIGN
PROGRESSES
More than 40 national organiza
tions educational, economic, social
and civic are supporting the cam
paign to get employed high school
pupils back to the class-room next
month. In 30 States especially or
ganized campaigns are under way.
Greatest stress is being placed on
the importance of having a well-
educated citizenry in the post-war
era and the hundreds of thousands
of high school boys and girls who
have gone to work are being ad
vised by veterans and others of the
importance of preparing for the
new era.
PVT. WOODROW QUEEN, son
of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Queen, of
Waynesville, and Miss Daphine
Belanibeau, of "Anesley Lodge",
Anesley Road, London. Pvt. Queen
entered the service in February,
1943, and was inducted at Camp
Croft. From Croft he was sent
to Fort Bragg and then to Camp
Cook, Calif. From the latter he
was sent overseas, and now serving
with the invasion forces in France.
Prior to entering the service he
was engaged in farming in this
county.
American pigs are killed too young
to have time to grow the long,
strong bristles characteristic of
Chinese pigs in reality boars.
These hog bristles from China are
very important in the making of
paint brushes for the Navy and
U. S. Maritime Commission, as well
as for brushes used in wool comb
ing machines.
HOG
BRISTLES FLOWN OVER
"HUMP"
Most dangerous air route in the
world, by general admission, is the
flight from India to China over the
Himalayan mountains. This run,
known as flying "The Hump", is
used for hauling vital war cargoes
to China. On the equally danger
ous return flight, Chinese hog bris
tles make up part of the cargoes.
NEW CEILING PRICE ON
BRIDES?
Now life has no more surprises:
In Durban, South Africa, a man
was able to get himself a wife by
paying her dad $88 in hard cash
plus seven cows. So what? So,
into the office of the Price Control
ler there appeared a man who pro
tested that his prospective father-in-law
had jacked up the price to
$128 in hard cash. The f-i-1 ex
plained that increased cost of liv
ing made it necessary for him to
boost his price. The Controller al
lowed as how the problem was
beyond his province. But, says
Canada's Wartime Information
Board which reported the incident,
it proves that even this primitive
man would see the solid common

Australia and New Zeland have
supplied American forces in the
Pacific battle tone with 250,000,
000 pounds of meat, 34,000,000
dozen eggs, 175,000,000 pounds of

ARMY CAN FIELD 50.000 BALL
. TEAMS
The Army purchases annually
enough baseball equipment to out
fit 50,000 baseball teams and 100,
000 softball teams; the Navy
enough for more than 11,000 and
22,000 respectively, OWI reports.
The Army and Navy buy up about
90 per cent of all sports and game
equipment produced in the United
States and, as a consequence, ci
vilians can expect little or no in
crease for the present in the
amount left over for their use.
Last year the services bought
sports and game paraphernalia,
devoted to the use of enlisted men,
costing $38,000,000. Even so, total
new supplies represent approxi
mately one baseball glove to overy
17 men in the Army and for every
28 in the Navy.
ROUND-IP
WPB announces; The total value
of farm machinery produced dur
ing July, 1944 was $75,595,553, a
figure which is 51.2 per cent higher
than the monthly average during
the 12 preceding months. Manu
facturers of corn pickers and bind
ers were urged to speed up their
production during August and Sep
tember so that corn growers will
have this machinery for the fall
harvesting season. American coal
mining machinery sent to Britain
is helping to raise the rate of pro
duction of "strip" coal from the
current 10,000,000 tons a year to
18,000,000 or 20,000,000 tons.
Lumber stocks at sawmills and
concentration yards totaled 4,118,
083,000 board feet at the end of
the second quarter, 1944, the low
est figure since December, 1941.
Exactly 15,000 electric hair clip
pers will soon be made and the
finished snippers will go to the
armed services.
Marry an army man, girls. He
can cook, make beds, and sew; and
he is in perfect health and he's
already used to taking orders.
