Little Girl, YouVe Had a Busy Day/
FitsWashington'slOO-Per-Centers
After a hard day at the office,
government worker Muriel Rourke
pretties up t* attend soldiers’
dance at Fort belvoir, Va.
BY ANN FRANCE WILSON
NEA Service Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Dec. 7—This is
the story of a typical Washington
100 per center. Among the thou
sands of busy, earnest war-time
workers there are a good many
who are like her, but the name
of this sample, exemplary citizen
happens to be Muriel Rourke.
She’s 23, a blue-eyed brunet, and
has an engaging smile to highlight
her unflagging enthusiasm. She
crams her days with such excite
ment as there is—and with innu
merable dull, routine chores that
“someone’s got to do.”
She never leaves the Office of
War Information until eyery pa
per nas been cleared from her
desk, and that often means 7
o’clock or later. She knows every
body in town who has regular deal
ings with her office, and she
knows what sort of information
he wants.
Originally from Iowa City, la.,
Muriel Rourke has been in the
capital more than a year, and she
Take Care Of Your Tricycle, Johnny;
It'll Be Your Last For The Duration
By ANN FRANCE WILSON
NEA Service Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Dec. 7—This will
be the last year that little Johnny
will be able to get a tricycle or
scooter from Santa Claus.
These large metal toys are fast
disappearing, and officials figure
that once Christmas is past
there’ll be very few left. For that
matter, WPB warns Johnny he’d
better take jolly good care of all
his toys, because manufacturers
are converting to more important
items.
So watch out, Johnny, don’t
abuse that whistle if it’s made of
metal, and be sure your favorite
train isn’t trampled to death.
Muskrat, Not Mink
There’ll probably be a boom in
medium priced fur coats—say of
the $100 variety. At the beginning
of the war when many salaries
were doubled and gals who had
never dreamed of purchasing a fur
coat in the $1000 price range start
ed trying them on and demanding
them, retailers stocked up on mink.
Then came strict credit regula
tions, taxes and generally in
creased living costs. So the aver
age fur coat buyer is now back
to the less expensive models.
Muskrat, it is believed, may be
come a favorite. Not just because
it’s a cousin of the mink but be
cause it is a domestic animal. It s
not particularly precious — there
are lots of muskrat in the United
States—and their fur can be made
up in many different ways.
So expect to see more inexpen
sive fur coats—and fewer sables.
Pottery Jewels
Just because the War Produc
tion Board puts its foot down and
cuts precious and ordinary petals
out of costume jewelry, that
doesn’t mean that such frivolities
are necessarily gone for the dura
tion. , ,
Manufacturers are already ex
perimenting with ceramics and, if
they can only find ways of making
a pin without using any metal,
you’ll soon find on the market all
kinds of ornaments made entirely
of ceramics.

This year you’ll buy sauerkraut
in bulk direct from the grocer’s
barrel because packers were not
allotted tin for packing There is a
bountiful supply of kraut, so use
it to give variety and flavor plus
healthfulness.
Famous teams are kraut and sau
sage, and spareribs, kraut and
pigs’ knuckles. But.these are only
a starter, say the home econo
mists. Diced apples and kraut,
browned together, make good
team-mates. To some people the
Christmas turkey or goose stuffed
with kraut is a glorious dish. It
is traditional also to team kraut
with such foods as fried liver or
baked fish.
When you are planning dishes
to spread meat flavor or main
dishes to alternate with meat, try
sauerkraut scalloped with' maca
roni and bits of meat; or kraut
scalloped with left-over mashed po
tatoes and a generous amount of
cheese. .
When fitting sauerkraut into
meals, don’t forget that the juice
chilled makes a good first course.
Some like it straight. Some pre
fer it with a little lemon juice,
or mixed half-and-half with toma
to juice.
Cook it in the Norwegian style.
Lightly brown 1-4 cup or less of
fat in a skillet and add 1 quart
of sauerkraut and 1-4 teaspoon of
celery or caraway seed. Mix well,
separating the kraut with a fork.
Cover and cook for five minutes,
and serve hot. You give the kraut
a Pennsylvania Dutch touch when
you add onion, apple, and a chop
ped potato.
TOMORROW’S MENU
BREAKFAST: Sauerkraut
and-tomato juice, wholewheat
cereal, enriched toast, jelly,
coffee, milk.
LUNCH: Black bean soup
with'lemon slices and croutons,
enriched hard rolls, cheese,
stewed pears, peanut codkies,

nah, Ga. Mrs. Davidson is a niece
of Mrs. Carr.
With other members of Women’s Battalion, Muriel boards charter
ed bus for dance. Muriel works for OWI in Washington.
IJSO canteen also claims some of Muriel’s evenings. There she
joins other girls and service men singing songs at piano, dancing and
playing games.
loves it. “It seems natural,” she
said. “I have an aunt who works
for the War Department, and ever
since I can remember my family
and I talked of the time when I’d
go to Washington too. OWI is a'1
temporary organization, but I don't
feel that I’m here only for the
duration; at least I hope not.”
One of her jobs is attending to
war bond pledge cards among OWI
employes, and Muriel is a good ex
ample. She has pledged 12 1-2
per cent of her salary. "I guess
the reason I’m investing a little
more than I can afford,” she ex
plained, "is that I go regularly
to dances and parties for servcie
men, and know many of them, and
realize a little better than most
people how much those men are
giving up. I’d be ashamed not to
try to make some extra sacrifice.”
Muriel is a member of the Wom
en’ Battalion—which means that
twice a week she pretties up, pins
on her badge, and catches a char
tered bus for Fort Bel voir, Va.,
and a soldiers’ dance. It’s a lot
of effort after a long day’s work,
but she has a grand time. None
of the girls may leave the dance
floor with a soldier, and all must
return to Washington on the same
bus; otherwise they”d lose their
badges.
O nevenings when she isn’t danc
ing. Muriel drops in at the USO
and chats with service men. Or
plays games. Or joins them around
a piano for singing.
The office air-raid warden for
OWI is Muriel Roure. She's cool
but very busy when the alarm
sounds, and she’s forceful with
laggards. Admits she can boss
’em around when she has to.
Another thing that makes Mu
riel a 100 per center is that she
and the three other girls who share
a three-room apartment diligently
save every ounce of fat left over
from cooking. Miss Rourke saves
most of it because her chief house
hold job is getting breakfast for
all o$ them—“and four hungry gals
can eat an awful lot of bacon.”
She also smashes tin cans for sal
vaging.
She’s war-thrifty in other ways,
too—such as never wearing stock
ings. Just slaps on some paint.

You can with the rich washing action of New OXYDOL
—and your clothes will last much longer
Get a wash so sparkling you’ll hardly
believe you haven’t used a bleach.
It’s easy with the New OXYDOL.
Do it without harsh bleaching that
so easily weakens fabrics and fades
colors. And without hard rubbing
that causes so much wear and tear.
And without those extra minutes of
washer-running time.
The New Oxydolis now much richer
in washing power. Every ounce gets
out more dirt for you. You’ll find its
livelier “Hustle-Bubble” suds go
after that last stubborn cloudiness
... that gradual yellowing so many
women notice with other soaps.
That’s why your white things have
sparkling whiteness with Oxydol
. ; . without bleaching, except for
stains, of course, or unusual pieces.
So use this modern soap that’s so
safe for your colored washables ...
safe even for your dainty washable
rayons. Even milder now on hands.
You’ll find clothes last much longer
this New OXYDOL way.
