Ration Tokens Will Be Used
By Shoppers Starting On Feb.
27; To Be Used For “Change"
Red And Blue Tokens Good
For One Point; Stamps
Change Value
Beginning February 27th, ration
book holders will use a new plan
for shopping. Tokens will be used
to make change for the red and
blue stamps in book 4.
Under the new plan, red stamps
and red tokens will be used for
canned fruits and vegetables and
other processed foods. Regardless
of how the stamps in book 4 are
marked, each will be good for ten
points and each token is worth
one point.
Becoming effective on February
27th are five blue stamps worth
a total of fifty points. Three red
stamps worth thirty points become
effective at the same time and for
each two weeks thereafter three
more become valid.
The red and blue stamps will
be good for approximately twelve
weeks, while the tokens will last
indefinitely. The tokens to be used
are slightly smaller than a dime
and have been made light for the
convenience of those holding
them. Tokens should be used and
not hoarded, say OPA officials.
By using the token system and
making stamps in book 4 good for
more points than had been pre
viously planned for, there will be
a great saving in paper, transpor-1
tation and man hours. Also the
new plan will be easier for book
holders because they will deal
with only stamps worth ten points.
To tie up the new rationing plan
with an old saying, it may be re
ferred to as “something old, some
thing new, something red, some
thing blue.”
Local merchants will get their
supply of tokens from the bankers
sometime between February 3 and
February 15, and will have them
ready to put into circulation on
the 27th.
BIRTHDAY GIFT
- FROM PAGE ONE -
Mr. Straus served as chairman
of the hospital finance and build
ing committees and has been
chairman of the board of trustees
for the past two years.
The beautiful new $100,000 hos
pital building was completed in
June, 1942, and has been in opera
tion since that time. The hospital
is debt-free and is filling a great
need in this county.
Money in the “Harry Straus
Fund” is to be used for some hos
pital purpose and the donors will
designate this use, it is explained.
It is also anticipated that the fund
will be increased.
In the near future another wing
to the institution will be needed
and a nurses’ home will be erected
after the war.

EIGHT INCHES OF SNOW
FELL HERE LAST WEEK
King winter really visited Bre
vard and this section last week
end when about 8 inches of snow
fell here.
Traffic was interrupted and the
opening of schools was again de
layed, but town and state highway
forces did an excellent job of
cleaning off the streets, sidewalks
and highways in record time.
Strange as it might seem, no
serious accidents were reported
and traffic was quickly restored
to normal.
The snowfall was rather general
all over the state.
