Why Charge Your Uncle Sam For That Old Junk Rubber? BY RUTH MILLETT NEW YORK, June 29.— There was k mountainous pile of old rubber in front of the filling station. Tons Of old tires, mats, galoshes, balls, high boots. . It was an impressive sight. Ask ed if many of the folks who had brought the rubber in had wanted money lor it, tne filling station pro p r i e t o r said: “Most of ’em did!” That was just one station in one town — and so by itself it isn’t important. But if it happened all over America it is important. Not because of the cost to Uncle Sam. But be cause it shows Ruth Millett there is sometning wrong wun ua, something wrong with our atti tude. We know our government needs old rubber—needs it desperately. It ought to be a privilege, then, to rummage around our houses fiom attic to cellar and out to the gar age to find every bit of old rubber we have and to take it down and turn it in—free. Giving Uncle Sam our old rubber ought to give us a lift, make us feel for a little while that we are helping in a small way. But if the majority of Americans took their rubber down and sold it to Uncle Sam — that’s something else again. That doesn’t show any enthusiasm, and joy at being abie to be of some little help. That doesn't show any spirit. The very idea of letting Uncle Sam pay for junk that is of no use to us—but vitally important to him. As long as we have that attitude we are just sitting around thinking of the government as something apart from us, and as suming that it is somehow up to AS USUAL WE WILL CLOSE JULY 4th Thank You For Your Cooperation SUNSHINE LAUNDRY Phone 3386 r the government to win this war for tis. It is all right for Uncle Sam to offer to pay for our old junk. If he didn't there are some folks who wouldn’t bother to save it and turn it -in. But if most of us are tak ing pay for the stuff we can no longer use, just because Uncle Sam needs it so badly he is willing to pay for it. then there's something radically wrong with our spirit and our attitude. Let's hope that one filling sta tion proprietor's experience wasn’t typical. * # * Personals Misses Lillian and Mary Bel lamy are spending this week at Morehead City attending a house party. * * * Jesse A.

Cook Fruits Before Canning And Save Sugar For Uncle Sam By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX NEA Service Staff Writer “STRETCH your ration of can ning s u g ar to the limit,” Dr. Louise Stanley, chief of the U. S. Department of Agriculture’s Bu reau of Home Economics, urges America’s homemakers. “The special sugar allowed for canning fruit has been issued you in trust,” she continues, “so that you may keep good food from go ing to waste. Every jar of fruit you put up helps lighten the load on commercial canneries and helps relieve overworked trans portation facilities. SUGAR-SAVING TIPS LISTED Dr. Stanley gives these sugar saving suggestions for the 1942 canning season: Sweeten the fruit slightly and cook it in an open kettle, then pack it hot into jars in its own juice. That way you’ll need much less sugar than if you pack the fruit cold, then cover it with a sugar-and-water syrup. Packing fruit hot into containers "ccomplishes two other purposes. The precooking shrinks the fruit and makes it possible to make more economical use of limited jar space and rubbers. And it also Peasant Frock Look feminine and fragile in a peasant frock!

' -v Advertising Council Announces Intention Of Salvage Campaign NEW YORK, June 29—(«—The Advertising Council announced to day that a national advertising campaign to promote a national salvage program in cooperation with the government would be started July 13 through more than 11,000 newspapers. The Council, a volunteer group composed of newspaper, magazine, radio and advertising representa tives, said the petroleum, rubber and automotive industries would set up receiving centers to collect junk—such as old rubber, rags, rope, burlap bags and waste fats— needed by the government. In addition to newspaper adver tising, magazine pages and radio announcements would be used to “sell” the idea of salvage as a continuing effort for the duration of the war. The Council said a $2,000,000 appi opriation had been obtained from 362 industrial leaders who compose the American Industries Salvage Committee to finance the piogram as a patriotic contribu tion to the war.
