Thursday, June 24, 1943 What Happened To Fatima.3 Fatima was a dancing girl whose picture was once familiar to nearly every cigarette smoker fp the United States. Fatima, depicted in one of her most bewitching post-', was the trade-mark on the cigarettes that bore her name. The cigarettes wer# the most widely advertised and larg est sellers among all brands in the United States. What has become of Fatima? That is a question John B. Long, manager of the California Newspaper Publish ers Association, is asking audiences he addresses throughout the state, says the Marysville, Cal.. Appeal Democrat. Long first asks his lis teners to produce any cigarettes they happen to have with them. The re sults always the same: plenty of the brands made popular through news paper advertising, but no Fatimas. Long supplies his own answer a> to the fate of Fatima. Vears ago her manufacturers decided she had re ceived sufficient momentum from ad vertising to travel on her own power. But it did not work out that way. Fatima did not remain the darling FREE!

Now they all reign in Fatima’s place and have won the commercial pre-emi nence she once enjoyed. The example is only one of scores that might be mentioned.

Some of them tried to come back but found the go ing too rough; other more far-sighted merchandisers had established their products.

It is the lifeblood of newspapers, on which their welfare, their service to i the public and their economic inde pendence depend. But advertising also is the life-blood of commerce and all those who fail to keep theii names and their products before the public frequently go into a business black-out. N'ot many advertisers will again allow themselves to drop out of the procession in the present r»dnor mal conditions of wartime; the les son of Fatima is ease, to read. Who’s A Saboteur? By Ruth Taylor There was an advertisement in one of the New York papers today which struck home. It's heading was "Sa boteur—Who—Me?" That's not a pretty title The word "saboteur" is an ugly word. It reeks of slimy plots to destroy and disrupt. It is a word of darkness and evil. It is a thing of which we want nothing—here in this country of ours, in these United States that are America. But all saboteurs are not armed with explosives to blow up uttr plants or tu bog down our production. There are unseen saboteurs in our midst whose aim is disunity and whose weapon is intolerance—and far too ciften they make saboteurs of us without our realizing it. When we are careless in our speech, when we repeat the facts that should not be known, when we drop the ililt-: that tell of troop movements, of production, of shipments—just the chance word from which the enemy adding carefully thousands of such :ententes, tan get the facts—then we too, are saboteurs. When we attack groups within out own country, accusing them of lack of patriotism, condemning all with ing a group because of the acts of in dividuals, thus arousing hatreds that set class against class, group against group—then we, too, are saboteurs. When we perform our duties of citizenship guided by our hatreds rather than bv our calm and measur ed judgment, when we put party be fore country, and personalities before abilities, hewn we measure our co operation by what we may get out of it, then we, too, are saboteurs. When we allow ourselves to judge our fellow Americans by class or creed or color, and permit our own personal prejudices and preferences to color our vision, generalizing in stead of individualizing, in short, fol lowing the Hitler line, we, too, are saboteurs. Sabotage is not an American cus tom. Let's wipe it out forever, by first wiping it out among ourselves. •‘Saboteur—Who Me' XEVER! Conservation Needed The Perquimans Weekly Motorists of North Carolina should see the handwriting on the wall and conserve gasoline to the utmost dur ing the next few weeks or months to prevent this state being included in the list now being rationed severely At present North Carolina is left oft the lost, banning not only pleasure driving, but many non-essential de liveries. The gasoline situation along the entire Eastern Seaboard is teported as desperate, and it is our belief that unless motorists hereabouts restrict their driving to bare necessity, con ditions will be such that OP A will be forced to enlarge the number of states now restricted.

IN MEMORIAM In sad remembrance of our darl ing wife, and mother. Pricilla Eliza beth Davenport who left us two years ago June 27, 1943. Mother's faith has been a beacon Two long years of deep despair. We shall look for her up yonder. Will our Mother know us there? Heaven has retained our treasure. Earth the lonely casket keeps. The sun loves to linger Where our precious Mother sleeps This month brings sad memories, Of our loved one gone to rest, You will never be forgotten By those who loved you best. Surrounded by friends we are lone some, In the midst of our pleasure we are blue. A smile on our faces, but a heart ache. Because we are always thinking of you. Your loveliness is mirrored in the moon. Your memory, Mother dear, is a radiant light, Throughout the •morning, night and noon. In every flower we can see your love so deep. Your voice so tender, so soft, so clear. Each gentile, whisper saying, "I am near." Your shining love and memory will entwine, Until we are united, mother mine. —Your devoted husband Lee P.
