MISS MAY SCHAFFER, BERNARD BLUTSTEIN, MARRY o ■ Friends here have learned of the recent marriage of Miss May Schaffer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. I. Schaffer, to Lt. Bernard Blutstein who is serving with the United States Army Medical corps. Supply Os Soap Depends On Salvage o “No soap” is a phrase that can be taken literally today. It’s a condition that is likely to continue for two or three more years unless ways are found to supplement the fat and oil supplies, states Grace Armstrong, foods specialist, Uni versity of Illinois College of Agri culture. The war destroyed many of the country’s ships of the type neces sary for carrying fats and oils from the Pacific areas, and do mestic production of tallow and grease still has not caught up with demand. There is one source that is proving a real help, though, and that is the salvage of fats by America’s homemakers. According to the U. S. Department of Agri culture, there would have been 13 per cent less soap last year were it not for this kitchen salvage. But more is needed. “If you want to find your favorite soap flakes or powder on the shelves of your local store,” says Miss Arm strong, “the thing to do is to con serve every drop of fat that comes into your kitchen. Strain it and use it. When it reaches the stage where it is no longer usable, pour it into a tin can and sell it to your butcher for four cents a pound. You’ve everything to gain and nothing to lose.” —Mrs. Annie L. Goodson shopp ed in Black Mountain Tuesday.
