Pouring dynamite down the

every time you throw away drip-

broilers. Clogging up the war and
your drains at the same time.
You have a new assigment now.
You’re careful with sugar. You’ve
turned in your old rubber good.s.
You walk to save gasoline and
tires. Next on the list are fats and
oils.
Fats are essential war material.
Here's why: We get glycerine
from grease. Glycerine is needed
to ma^e explosives. Two pounds
of grease produce e&eugh glycer
ine to make dynamite for five
rounds of antiaircraft fire.
The Navy needs glycerine too,
for floating ship compasses and
on steering gears instead of oil.
Billion pounds ot cooking fat a
year. There’s enough dynamite in
all that fat to bomb many a Nazi

You use glycerine In lots of

The Brotherhood organisation
of the North Wllkesbwo Metho
dist church heard a snbrt, inter
esting talk by Rev. Charles E.
Shannon at its regular monthly
meeting held in the church hut
Tuesday evening. Rev. Mr. Shan
non, of Monroe, is the new pastor
of the Wilkesboro and Union
Methodist churches.
In the course of his brief talk.
Rev. Mr. Shannon developed the
thought that much material pro-
greas has been made in the world
during the past 100 years, but
that Christian people are chall
enged with the question whether
or not spiritual progress figs kept
he pace with the material.
Mr. R. E. Gibbs, Jr., is presi
dent of the brotherhood, and
Messrs. W. D. Halfacre and W. E,
Jonej were program chairmen for
the meeting, which was well at
tended.

glycerine in it to stop the mixture

Doctors need glycerine. It fs
an ideal antiseptic. It softens
dead tissues in wounds, sterilizes

Mouth washes have glycerine fu
them; eo do shoe polish, and am-

as a lubricant in weaving rayon
fabrics. YouTI find glycerine in
j soap, paper, perfume, photograp-

common everyday prcnfucts.

Now im,port» from ffie Paclflc-
areas are largely cut off. It's up-
to the women of America to get
ail the grease out of ttielr frying-
pans and broilers and" get all oT
it that is not usable as- food lnto>
the hands of manuflacturers who-
can extract the glycerine from ft..
You can’t extract glycerine at-
home. That's why your goverm-
ment doesn’t ask you to make-
soap out of your unused' fats.
In Chicago housewives have-
been experimenting to the salvage
of fats and oils for the past ffe-w-
months, and now the rest of the-
country is- joining the campaign.
A half-tablespoon of bacon drip
pings seems inflniTesimal but
you’d be surprised Bow it adds ujv
in a month’s time. Get out a cleaw
coffee can and cover it with- a
clean piece of cheesecloth, don-
hla thickness. Pour your drippings
through the clo*h, and put the
can in the icebox, to keep the
grease from becoming rancid.
Rancidity in grease cuts down the
amount of glycerine that can be
extracted.
When the coffee can is full take
it to your grocer or butcher. He’ll
■weigh it. and pay you for the
|grense. You’ll And that a 1-pound
[coffee can holds about 2 pounds
of grease.
Don’t save the drippings in a
glass Jar or paper container. The
coffee can of grease will be sent,
as is, to the rendering plant. The
glass Jars might break and paper
cups smash. So remember about
using old metal containers.
If you don’t intend to use any
salvaged grease for cooking,
pour all klnd.s into the coffee can
—bacon, lamb, beef, and so on.
It doesn^t moke any difference lo
the rendering plant. If you are
saving fats to use in your cooking
you should use individual con
tainers for each kind of fat. You
will use bacon grease for frying
liver, eggs, or meats; you’ll u-se
it on wilted lettuce and for short
ening—one-half bacon grease and
one-half butter Is an old trick in
making delicious brownies.
Chicken and duck fats are good
spread on bread. They make fine
shortening, flavoring, and can be
used for frying.
.The more waste fat you use In
cooking, the less you’ll have to
buy, and the less fat will have to
be diverted from war uses to con
sumer usee. Also, you’ll be saving
money.
