All families in the Nation ajre
telng asked to contribate alike in
Ae “share-the-meat” progrram by
kolding down weekly consumption
lo 2 1-2 pounds per person pver 12
years of age.
In clarifcriBg the request, I)r. I.
0. Schaub, director of the, Exten
sion Service of N. C. State Col
lege, said all meat slaughtered or
farms for home use and that which
families purchase in quantity for
storage in freezer lockers shoulr
be counted in the 2 1-2 , pound
weekly s^iaring allowance.
This aipplies to the meat from
home-slaughtered cattle, calves,
logs, and sheep, since the ‘'share-
the-meat” program affects all beef,
pork, veal, lamb, and mutton. All
meat, whether slaughtered' on the
farm or commercially, tpakes up
the total supply to be available to
consumers.
Explaining the situation. Dr.
Schaub said that huge amounts oi
meat must be supplied to the Army
and Navy, and our Allies. Civilian
consumption must be held to the
rmount available after all*of thesi
seeds are met. ,
If civilians were allowed to buy
all the meat they wanted, their
purchases alone would take 21 bil
lon pounds of the total available
fupply of slightly more, than 24
billion pounds. Since Army. Navy,
and Le’id-Lease requirements run
sp to d 1-2 billion pounds, civilian
consumption must be cut to 17 1-2
billion pounds.
Dr. Schaub said a meat-rationing
system cannot be worked out until
early in 1943, so citizens have been
asked to cooperate in the volunta
ry "‘share-the-meal’' program so
as to assure adequate rations for
the Army, Navy, and Ameiican
Allies.

Career of Cidum
Had Many Peaks
New York.—George M. Cohan,
the Yankee Doodle Dandy whose
‘‘Over There” was the marching
song of a million Yanks in the
first'World War, and whose 50
years , of song and dance roles en
deared him to all Americans, is
dead.
Cohan died at his apartment
surrounded by his wife, his son,
George, Jr., and his daughters,
Msry and Helen. He underwent
an operation tor an Intestinal ail
ment October 0, 1941, from which
he never fully recovered.
The song and dance man—the
des^Hptioh of his varied theatrical
career which he liked best-rwrote
another v’ar song after Japan
struck at Pearl Harbor despite his
enfeebled health. Although the
tune was lively and the words had
the Cohan ring, he shelved the
song, fulfilling a prediction he
made two years ago:
“1 hope America will never
need another war song. But if we
do need one, it wil have to be
wrritten by some young fellow”.
Did Everything
Cohan’s roles included every
thing from President Roosevelt to
Peek’s Bad Boy. His theatrical
experience included vaudeville,
musical comedy, radio and legiti
mate acting. His talents included
playwright, production and song
v/riting.
The lists of his accompli.shments
in all lines are almost endless. He
is best remembered for his plavs
‘‘The Tavern”, and "Seven Keys
to Baldpate”, which are still pro
duced by stock and amateur com
panies.
One of his many triumphs asa
legitimate actor was in Eugene
O’Neill’s Pulitzer Prize play, ‘Ah.
Wilderness”. His most beloved
S. De-' performance was in ‘Td Rather
Be Right”, the hilarious song and

reality and blasted us all out of our peace

in the battles of both wars. Now it is time
to realize that this is the people’s war—
and that to win it, so that we will be vic

each of us must fight with all our will and

It’s Important
To Know
The A B C’s
of Vitamins! "
IN PLANNING nutritious meals, it’s important to know which foods contain certain
-..min.v—and just as importmt to keep vitamins in the food you buy . . .
■j H . VITAMIN A—important to good
V A j eyesight and resistance to colds—
^ ^ is a fat-soluble and Is not readily
lost in cooking, except in frying. To get the
inaxiitiiitp in vitamin A In eggs, boil, poach,
or shirr. Broil or roast meats. Air destroys
vitamin A — dc *t stir vegetables while
cookin".
U n VITAMIN Bi, or tniamine chlo-
V Di ride. Is a water-soluble and easily
^ ■—* destroyed by overcooking, or by
cooking in too much water. To keep Bi in
foods so your family cm get ks benefits,
cook vegetables in little water at steaming
temperature. *
VITAMIN B:—This vitamin, too,
is water-soluble and -istable to
heat and must be -yo’ .; J properly.
In cooking meats, use low temperature to
minimize shrinkage and evaporation of nu
tritive juices.
Bj* I VITAMIN C—This vitamin I
S V I very unstable. Improper storage
• ^ ' ■■■ of foods destroys it, as will too
much heat . . . too, it is easily washed away
when cooked in an excess of water.
H|| \v IT AMIN D Is another fat-sol
S U I uble. So, to get the maximum of
^ this sunshine vitamin from foods,
consider poaching, shirring, baking and
broiling, and for the moment forget the
frying pan!
A GENERAL “DON’T”
ABOUT VEGETABLES
Don’t take thick parings from pota
toes, carrots, apples or other fruits and
vegetables. "ITie richest mineral content
is close to the peelings. Save the food
value for your family. Don’t use soda
to heighten color—it destroys vitamins.
The Only Vitam) and ’ erals That Count are the Ones That Reach Your Table.
