■■■■■■' ■■ ■ .■ ■■■■■■» Town And Farm In Wartime NO DATES ON KEROSENE COUPONS Persons who use small amounts of kerosene for domestic cooking 1 and lighting may now get renewal rations for periods longer than ] the six months formerly permit- : ted. This provision of a recent OPA amendment is to reduce the ; number of renewal applications by 1 the consumer and the amount of : paper work performed by the 1 rationing board. The amendment provides that rations issued for domestic cooking and lighting no longer will bear dates of issuance and expiration, and coupons may be used as long as they last. The rationing board may issue the ration for any period up to a year from date of application. The maxi mum ration allowed for domestic cooking has been increased to 30 gallons a month for the first seven persons. It was formerly 24 gallons for six or seven persons.

The 1943 crop may have amounted to as much as 280 million bushels. That estimate compares with unofficial estimates of 268 million bushels last year.

Sales through vending machines are included in the new OPA ruling on matches. NOTIFICATION OF “NEXT OF KIN” Notification of “next of kin” of naval personnel killed, missing, wounded, or captured — except where death occurs within the continental limits — is generally a telegram giving such available information as may be divulged. In case of death this telegram is confirmed by a letter from the Secretary of the Navy, conveying condolences and giving any addi tional details. Next of kin are also furnished data as to rights and benefits to which they are entitled. In the case of a “missing” person, the next of kin receives a letter about the continuance of allot ments for insurance premiums and for dependents. If the navy re ceives further details of the casu alty, next of kin are promptly notified.

Music Furnished By Ecusta Band A war bond rally held at Lake Toxaway school last week turned out to be a patriotic jubilee cele bration, with nearly every person present buying bonds and dancing to the hillbilly music furnished by the Ecusta string band. The small school house was filled to capacity and over $3,000 worth of bonds were sold and delivered. “I never saw anything like it in my life,” E. H. McMahan, Tran sylvania county Third War Loan drive chairman, said. “We could have sold several thousand dollars more if we had had the bonds and facilities for handling checks.” This was one of the 11 war bond rrllies that are being held in Tran sylvania this month. The outlook at the beginning of the rally was dismal. “I arrived there about dark,” McMahan said. “And there were no lights in the building, no piano jfor our musicians, and no one had gotten there to take charge, but i at least 150 people were in the 1 yard. “With the aid of a sound speak ing system and an automobile, we got some light and the program was started about 30 minutes late. “Our string band and singers really put on a show and Ralph Fisher then made a stirring ad dress, after which the sale of jonds started,” he explained en husiastically. “You should have seen that crowd; they lined up to buy bonds md kept on buying them while :he string band played. Many of >ur bond buyers got so happy ;hat they started singing.” L. V. Sigmon, Rosman post master, was present and issued aonds.
