There's nothing we can do about the war but fight it. If the dog doesn't catch the rabbit it is time to get another dog. _ Heaven pity the unfortunate. The world hasn't time to do it. If the army doesn't furnish arms for the soldier girls the boys will. It takes two to make a quarrel and two more to make a free for all. Modesty may be becoming, but the fellow that has it is late m arriving. The difference between an argument and a quarrel is the temperature. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread, and the engels do not trouble to rescue them. Those who suffer from high blood pressure are not the one who suffer from low incomes. The world can't be stabilized until all the jackasses who started the war are stable-;zed. A man jnay have the right to play with rattlesnakes «if he likes, but he . is a fool if he does. No need to ask when the war will end. It's the only military secret that will not leak out. A doctor says women are not subject to lockjaw so much as men arc. We think he is right. That Guy Voiiva who has always insisted that the world was flat, may prove right after all. Sin has never been what it cost, but the price keeps going up and people keep on paying it. The gas is out. The tires are gone^Howdy, family. We are- home and no more will we roam. If our forces take all those little islands in the Pacific we can all-have one. But you may have ours. Under the present conditions the poor cant hope to become rich and the rich cant hope to stay that way.

State College Hints For Farm Homemakers I V , By Rath Current State Home Demonstration Agent N. C. State College. If you take the right care of the fats you save, you can use them in lots of ways in your regular cooking. Drippings, f«rr instance, can be used fir gravieoB, as flavorful seasonings for vegetables, in salad dressings, even for baking if you clarify the fat first. Clarify means to wash out object! onal odors, tastes, or colors. To do this, use twice as much water as fat and boil for 10 minutes. Stir the mixture well and than leave it to cool. In the case of soft fat, finish cooling in the refrigerator. The fat should form a solid cake. Lift off this layer of caked fat and scrape off any dark material from the underside. Then store the fat. (You can remelt it and pour into a satisfactory container.) Remember, clarified fats- dontl keep as well as other fats, so usej them quickly. separates the fat from the connective tissue. Poultry fat is naturally soft so you dont have to cut it before rendering, but other fats melt quicker if you either grind , or cut them into small pieces first You can render a small amount of fat in a double boiler over hot water. Cover it and stir occasionally. A* soon, as the fat is melted strain it into a container that has a tight cover. When the fat is cold, store it. To keep fiats in good condition, you have to store them well Put jthem in clean containers with tight fitting covers and store in a cool dark place. Check up once in awhile to make sure they're not rancid. new fat in THE HOME FRONT (Continued from page 1) serious shortage in track materials will make better track maintenance a necessity for railroads said local transit companies. All these sayings leave the steel industry far short of its main requirement—iron and steel scrap. The goal Bet for the last six months of 1942 requires a monthly average of 2,833,000 tons of scrap. July's shipments fell short of the avenage by 15 percent. Among the states, North Dakota led by shipping 26.7 percent of its quota, Oklahoma was lowest with 7.2 percent. Inflation Still Trwtens. The Home Front's dread enemy, inflation, still threatens us with high costs as vastly increased baying' power competes for scarce goods not yet under price control. Today, for example, we are paying $1.36 for what' was a dollar's worth of food in 1939. Prices of foods not under control have risen almost 10 percent in a three month period, whereas foods, products, and services under price ceilings have shown a slight decline during the same period. The answer is more extensive price control, and this control now has been extended to a varied list of products—nigs, denims, plywood, lime for improving soils, insecticides, fungicides, fall and winter knitted underwear, tool handles, wagon spokes,^ tent pins, dried prunes and raisins.
