A car driver is generally called
chaufeur but irate pedestrians call
him something else. Simple
Susie observes the girls
now stay at home and pout for there
are no boys to take them out.
Blonde hair can be made black in
the beauty salon. Blue eyes can be
made black in the liquor saloon.
A knowledge of trigonometry will

rvometry will bfing down more Japs.
Probably they are called board
meetings because those attending
them are bored.
Very little criticism is now being
directed at Mussolini. No one kicks
a dying dog.
So many women are doing men's
work that men will have to do theirs.
If Ma brings home the bacon Pa
ought to cook it.
It evens up. The merchant gives
the customer short weight _fe. his

long wait for his.
• DO YOU HAVE A PHOTO?
We are planning a patriotic window

all those in the community
who have a photo of a soldier in their
family in the service to lend same

State College Hints

Hoate Agent) . \y

Santa Clans
[ GoesTo War
The children of Fmrmville and
community will not be forgotten by
Santa Glaus next Christmas, in spite
of many manufacturing restrictions,
says Gene Horton Oglesby, secretary
at the Farmrille Merchants' Association.
However the thousands of tons
of steel and inn, copper, sine, lead,
silk, rayon, plastic, paints and fabrics
which ordinarily are fabricated into
toys for Young American will—this
year and for several years—be poured
into the manufacture of gm
ships, tanks and planes, added the
secretary. u
Such is the effect o£ the War Production
Board's recent order banning
the fabrication of >ya containing
more than seven percent of certain
"critical materials" after June 30
and stopping production of toy* made
of certain "prohibited materials.''
The order is expected to save for
war 100,000 tons of iron and steel,
2,000 tons of copper, copper alloy,
and brass, 1,000 tons of lead, 3,000
tons of rubber, 3,000 tons of sine and
huge quantities of other vital materials.
At the same time toy manufacturers
are expected to torn to
such substitutes as wood, paper, ceramics,
cvtton fabrics, earth colore
and noncritical plasitos to fill the
breach.
There is enough zinc in a 3%
pound toy locomotive to make a carburetor
on a jeep or a cover-cap on a
projectile. It carries enough copper,
wire, strip and brass to produce halfa-dozen
.30 caliber cartridge cases
for use in a semi-automatic rifle or
light machine gun. Sixteen such
locomotives contain sufficient steel
to make a 3-inch shell for the firing
of a 75 mm. Howitzer.
WPB's consumers durable goods
branch estimates that 50 per cent of
the toys handed out next Christmas
will be produced under the limitations
of the present order, ,the balance
coming off dealers' shelves and from
the output of'the early months.
The Christmas tree of the future
will probably be set up on a stand
of wood, not metal. It will be decorated
with shimmering ornaments of
spun glass and festoons of paper in
place of metal tinsel. It may even
be lighted with candles as of yore because
of a shortage of light bulbs.
Dolls will be stuffed with cotton instead
of kapok, will be dressed in
cotton intead of rayon and their
faces will not beam so brightly as in
the past Velocipedes will be made
of wood from the tips of their handlebars
to the rim of their wheels, with
only enough steel to hold them together.
Toy diches will probably
come in glass or china. There will
be no electric trains or other metal
conveyances, no rubber balloons, no
metal mechanical sets, no plastic
teething ring for the new baby on
the war-time Christmas tree beyond
1942.
Toymakers expect a boom in military
toys by next Yuletide. They
have come out with Springfield and
Garand rifles made entirely of wood,
wooden machi ne guns which sound
off a realistic rat-a-tat-tat, soldier
sets of cardboard, lead and plactics,
and all-wood parade guns, cannons,
anti-aircraft guns, forts, Airplanes,
jeeps, tanks, field ambulances, battleships,
submarines and Commando
barges. As an indication of the interest
in civilian defense, they have
laid in a supply of doctors and nurses
outfits, air raid warden kits and
blackout sets—ail made of non-essential
ingredients.
