For
The Record
Movements for the public good are fre
quently launched with great enthusiasm,
but sometimes die out because sustained
effort is lacking.
This is not true of the North Carolina
beer industry's self-regulation program
to maintain wholesome conditions in the
retail sale of this beverage of moderation.
Continued with diligent effort since its
launching in May, 1939, our Committee's
program has won the praise and support
of the law enforcement officers, the press
and the public.
We promise there will be no let-up in
our efforts.

Our Country Needs Still More Used Fats
. . . and We're the Folks to Save lem !
OUR domestic supplies of fats and oils will be approximately
one and one-half billion pounds less than last year. Y et thou
sands of tons are still needed to help make countless essentials
for the battle- and home-fronts.
We country people must remember that because of the meat
situation, we are in a better position to save fats than city
folks. That's why we can't afford to miss a trick!
So let's save not only the big amounts from frying and roast
ing, but also meat trimmings and plate scraps. Melt them down
and add the liquid fat to the salvage can. Skim soups and gravies.
Every drop is important.
When your salvage can is full, take it to your butcher and get
2 red points and up to 4 i for each pound. If you have any diffi
culty, call your County Agent or Home Demonstration Agent. ?
