Since the war: began the "small" man in Great Britain has contributed $9,546,000,000 in savings, which has provided 20¢. of the Govérnment's borrowing needs. Munitions output in Britain in the first quarter of 1943 has exceeded the uot- put of the first quarter of 1942 by 40 per cent. One worker in three in munitions--is now a woman. The British army has not only fought the enemy on the battlefields of Europe, Africa and Asia, but has also performed the key task of con- taining the enemy in strength in Ice- land, the British Isles, Gibraltar, Malta, Cyrus, Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Pesria, Madagascar, India. . 250,000 men--the whole of an en- emy army--were put out 'of action in the' rst North African campaign. Less than 2,000 casualties were suf- fered by the Army under Gen. Wavell, More than 70 per cent. of all the casualties suffered by the armies of the British Empire in all campaigns of 1940 and 1941 were suffered by United Kingdom troops. - Not one British warship has been sunk by an Italian surface vessel dur- ing the two and a half years since Italy entered the war. It is calculated that by March 1943, the Italian. Flect|- had lost 10 cruisers, 48 destroyers and a large number of submarinesi\> | At the end of May, workers and residents of the County of London had contributed $3,267,840.00 to the Red- Cross-Penny-a-week-Fund. The British Government has taken 580,000 tons of railings and 400,000 tons have already been converted into bombs, tanks, ships, ete. : The Britain had reached nearly $3,000,000 by the end of May. In Great Britain, 90% of the men employed before the war as bus con- ductors have now been replaced by women conductresses. In 1939 the proportion of women employees in the bus companies was 9%: today women represont approximately 35% of the entire staffs of the bus companies. In the East African campaign, in 17 days (March 1-17, 1941) the columns under the 'command of General Cun- ningham drove an average of nearly 44 miles a day.

About September one millions of hollyhock seeds are to be planted along Minnesota highways by the Department of Conservation, su- The thought behind it is that when our Minnesota soldiers come back from war these hollyhocks will be a "triumphant phalanx of colour lining the roadways", delighting the eye and uplifting the spirits. Hollyhocks are sturdy and caw stand all' kinds of severe winter weather. They reseed themselves and require almost no attention, There is no more showy flower anywhere, and in mass growth should present a never-to-be- forgotten sight that will outdistance the charms of California poppy fields, Oregon's rose hedges, Virginia's dog- wood, Michigan's tulips and the famed cherry blossoms of Washington our capital city. Even if you have no holiyhocks in your own garden' you can purchase some packets of séeds and send them in, and so have a feeling of partnor- ship in the colorful cavalcade of beauty which will enthrall mative Minnesotans and tourists alike as they revel in the joys of our Land of the Sky Blue Water.
