Some "field workers of the federal bureau of industrial conservation regard this estimate as conservative in the light of industry's enormous appetite for old rags, waste paper, old rubber and scrap metals. In every state and almost every community they have begun campaigns to convince householders that they qan contribute far more to the "salvage for victory" program than a stack of newspapers or the wad of Unfair Junior has been saving since he was six, They want last year's license plates and your old tableware. They'll be just ps pleased to get a pair of worn-out galoshes or a, second- hand bird cage*. Grease, from; the kitchen is on the conservation list, sand next it may be old bone,s. Scrap Drives Successful. Tin cahs are a bout 'the Only 4rash that the bureau hadn't been able to work into, the program. - They may find a use for them before the war'? much older. „ Slowly but steadily the campaigns are showing results. In Illinois,, where State Salvage Director Nathaniel Leverone said the program had been especially successful, hundreds of persons are delivering grease to their butchers, razor blades to their barbers and empty toothpaste tubes to the corner drug stores. :' A two-day drive conducted by the Daily Pantagraph, a Bloomingtor (111.) newspaper, brought rn 2,4^7 sets of old automobile license plates They " Wrghed 1,820 pqunds, and scrap dealers estimated that when the metal was put on the market it would release enough virgin steH ta make 300 Garand rifles. In the metal division, .the campaigners put clothes hangars, pip>?, wire fencing, garden tools, kiddie cars, garbage cans, fireplace equip* ment, sash weights, picture frames, drain pipes, buckets,, casters and1 steel wool. Sport Goods Can Help. ~~ Rubber goods included gloves( car and bath mats, balls and other sporting goods, hose, and soles and heels. " General collection figures are hard to arrive at, but the Chicago sal-r vage committee found out that, in a five-week period this year;, collection of wa^te paper was up roughly 25 per cent to a total of 428,897 tons. Another thing the conservation bureau's field workers are trying to put across is the uses to which all this salvaged material is put after it is reprocessed and returned to production. , , Paper, for instance: Surveys have shown that practically all of the arms and supplies going to Britain, Russia and China are packed in waterproof paperboard boxes. Army ordnance plants alone use 30 tons of paper a month to pack shells. There are hundreds of uses for scrap iron and steel in the manufac ture of tanks, airplanes, naval vessels^ guns and ammunition. Twenty per cent of our lead supply is derived from scrap. Copper goes into brass casings for artillery, anti-alrcraft and anti-tank cartridges and shells. One variety of bomber now in production requires two miles of copper wire for each plane. Coloj for Women >, Knowing t<iat\color in the home' affects the emotions and is an aid in maintaining morale, every woman selects colors carefully these days when planning the repainting of hpr home. Realizing that she herself is the mainspring of that home, it is not strange that the thoughtful woman selects tints and tones which are flattering to her own appearance. It has been stated that every colortype can use every color for decoration, but that the color intensity of the detonations must be accurate to assure harmony and flattery. *rhe "AJl-American" type--having light brown to dark brown hair with blue, green or brown eyes--is flattered by the vivid shades or tints of every color. She should avoid neutral hues. Research proves blondes should decorate with dark or medium colors, avoiding the vivid, unrestrained tones. ,* Charch Prefers Rice A church in Liddlehampton, England,- is requesting "wcduihg guests to throw rice instead of confetti at brides, because "rice is cheaper, sweeps up easily and feeds the •birds/'. : lV,-v ,, v INSURE YOUR HOME : AGAINST HITLER/ Twice To 1 d Tales Item of Interest Taken Fwb the Files of the Plaindaakt of Years Ago ; j are t&king ia Jthe sigM# a^.Chj£ag0 this TWENTY YEARS AGO Overton & Cowen have again taken over the taxi service, which during tiie past few months has been conducted hy Overton £ Laures, Math B.

Linus Newman and Thomas Keams TTeart Disease'Victims Often Found Healthy "Some of the most pathetic victims heart disease are those wfio don't have it." Dr. Howard West, president of the California Heart association, so reported at the annual symposium held by the organization. "Many people who haven't heart disease think they have, and that is enough to ruin their lives," he explained. "Even when patients do have a bad heart," he continued, "it is much more important--and more, difficult--to treat the patient's miodi first. "Br some instances, tfee most reassuring advice you can give a-patient is 'come back and see me ia about five years.'" Dbcrtors, he said, can advise how • to>cui* or alleviate the malady, "but the main factor is the faithful cooperation of the patient, which in. more important than any medication." This co-operation, he stated, cot* sists in right diet, the proper amount of-exercise and of relaxation, and » mindl as free as possible from worry and harrassments. Tvwo cardinal rules he listech as: 1 "Since 45 to 60 is the common* age for heart disease, learn how to ! live before you are 45* so you will, avoid it. , "Find out early if your- heart is all right, and thus you may escapecertain types of difficulties of thepeople who think they have heart : disease, and don't." < A Not everybody with a dollar to spare can shoot a gun straight--but everybody can shoot straieht to the bank and buy War Bonds.
