What Not to Do Bottled under authority of The Coca-Cola Company by COCA-COLA BOTTLING COMPANY Aberdeen, N. C. 15 BILLION DOLLARS (NON. BANKING QUOTA) While Our Men And Boys Are GIVING THEIR LIVES We Are Only Asked To LEND OUR MONEY In The World's Safest Investment Let's Do Our Part And More Let's Over Subscribe Hoke County's Quota Of $209,000 This Space Contributed By LESTER S DAIRY If you don't want to misuse ration stamps, don't: 1. Make purchase with loose stamps. Exceptions, one-point Ted stamps, used for change; shoe stamps when ordering by mail. 2. Trade ration coupons. 3. Lend your ration book to friends The patriotic thing is to use rationed goods as sparingly as possible. 4. Purchase rationed commodities without coupons. 5. Attempt to use ration stamps after they have expired. 6. Purchase rationed articles with book not issued to you,, except for shoes within a family. 7. Give up unused stamps to your dealer. Balance in Sandwich OPA is having a time striking the right balance between the supply of breads. The nation has too much bread for the amount of butter avail able. Jelly and peanut butter will help, but the fruit supply is short. OPA has just released more sugar to commercial jam makers to encourage production. It's already unpatriotic to use both butter and jelly, or peanut butter and i jelly. J Save Rancid Fats The Government wants all your : waste kitchen fats to turn into ex-1 plosives even if they have become , rancid. At first, the War Production ' Board said it didn't want rancid fatS because they were too smelly to han dle, but the emergency is such that j they are no longer choosy. i Waste-Paper Salvage A waste-paper-salvage campaign is. starting again, but on a local, careful ly organized basis so it can be dispos ed of effectively. Last year the Gov ernment was almost drowned in a sea of waste paper as a result of a nation wide call. The new drive is necessary because of decreased production of wood pulp, increased consumption of boxes for shipment of materials abroad, and a manpower-transportation problem among junkmen. I'sed-Car Prices Soar The used-car market is getting tighter every day and the Govern ment is having trouble with dealers who refuse to sell the few new cars they have left, but the real crisis in the automobile isn't expected until 1945. A ceiling on used cars may be ne cessary if prices continue to mount as war workers need more and more cars to replace worn out ones. Shoe Rationing Continues Rllmnrs that shnp rntirtwin ... .1,1 .-..-.B "uiu I soon come to an end were dispelled I this week when OPA announced that I the four "airplane" stamps in War Ration Book 3 will be used for shoes, j Shoe-Stamp Detachment If you inadvertently detach a shoe stamp henceforth, you have to go to this trouble before you can spend it: Take it to your local ration board and exchange it for a special shoe stamp. You may write, but you must present your book and state why the stamp was detached. Soldiers and sailors 'will have their shoe stamps removed before they get them, thus eliminating the line with which young women are said to be wooing military men: "You great big beautiful man. What are you going to do with your No. 18 stamp." State College Will Offer Six Courses For War Work Raleigh, Sept. 8.

I O To be eligible for support prices on cured sweet potatoes, growers must ' pack them in standard crates, baske'ts ! or hampers and offer them in carload lots. Every effort should be made to 1 sell them through normal channels. The school bells are ringing again call ing North Carolina's youngest generation back to the job of learning to be good and useful citizens. We've all come to think of a good education for our chil dren as the natural birthright of young Americans) but building up and admin istering a school system as fine as North Carolina's is a gigantic task. Nearly 900,000 students are enrolled each year in North Carolina's schools and college. There are 4,111 primary schools, 990 secondary schools and 52 colleges and universities. The rang of studies runs from kindergarten games through the three "R's" to the mo advanced scientific and sociological re search. Thousands of teachers are devoting their lives to this work and to them goes much of the credit for its success, as well as to the administrators of each institution, to local and county school boards and to the Office of Super intendent of Public Instruction. We of the Greyhound Lines take the same pride as all other North Carolinians in our State's educational achievements. We know that our own organization is aiding the school system both with tax support and transportation service. Those of us whose children are benefit ing directly from the splendid schooling afforded them feel doubly proud. ... la wartime even more than in peace time, the things that draw us all together, that unify our efforts, that make us good neighbors in every sense, are the things that count most heavily. Both good education and good transportation have decisive parts to play in shaping the present as well as the future of North Carolina in the post-war world.
