Even if large quantities 6f food are sent abroad to our armed forces, to our Allies and to starving people in countries released from Axis domination, there still will be enough for Mr. Average Citizen and his family to furnish them above the average prewar diet barring an upset in crop prospects, these men say. "Our national diet wili be as good as in prewar years," predicts Marvin Jones,- war food administrator. The tribes that chose Estonia for their hom,e found a land ot fpre^ts, streams, lakes, and marshes. Low and flat, it is especially suited to some kinds of agriculture, despite its northern climate, with snowfall often crowding the harvest season. About 70 per cent of the Estonians make their living by farming and dairying. Before the war butter, eggs, and baoon were exported to Estonia's best customers, Great Brit-*"" ain and Germany.

Jay Carter of Pink Hill, N. C., who is credited with shooting down two Japanese dive bombers and serving up a batch of hot corn bread all within an hour's time. Mess Sergeant Carter literally "doubles in brass" by taking charge of a'galley and by serving as a gunner on the machine gun which is placed just a few steps from hi: kitchen door. "I was just baking a batch of corn bread when the signal for the raid came," the slightly built, 26-yearold marine explains. "I quickly shut off the stove and ran to the gun. There were five Jap planes diving down on us. I just opened up arid let them have it." Asked what he did then* Mess Sergeant Carter replied: "I went back into the galley, lit the stove again, and finished making my corn bread." Mess Sergeant Carter would be willing to overlook the whole incident, except for one thing. He feels that it is an unforgivable error to interrupt a North Carolina man while he's baking corn bread. several other musical numbers played Knights of Columbus will welcome j and found six pups in the den.

Brazil's raw silk production has passed the 500,000-pound mark. This is about half of the average amount of silk imported into Brazil during pre-war years. Brazil aims for production of sufficient silk to meet domestic requirements, plus a surplus for export. In Brazil, thousands of acres of fertile land are devoted to the growth of mulberry trees. The trees increased from 10,000,000 in: 1940 to 30,000,000 in 1942. In 1940, there were only three reeling mills or filatures, with a total of 273 reeling basins, in operation in the state of Sao Paulo. At the end of 1942 ther£ were 25 filatures and 619 reeling basins. An INS news release on Saturday describes how Lt. Eleanor H.

Physicist's Discovery Lengthens Light Beam The United States lighthouse service in peacetime operates 33,000 navigational aids ranging from lanterns hung on posts along our great rivers to the 9,000,000 candlepower beam of a modern lighthouse. With our entrance into the war, the lighthouse service came under ! the direction of the United States coast guard and the jurisdiction of the United States navy. The peacetime operation of a light- : house was made possible by a 19th century physicist who discovered that lenses and prisms could be so arranged and manipulated that they would collect and concentrate even a feeble flame and multiply it into a tremendous beam of many candlepower. Typical of what his discovery made possible is Ihe $20,0(KlVsns of the Navesink (N. J.) lighthouse where a modest 2,400 candlepower lamp is magically multiplied into 9,000,000 candlepower, a light that probes easily through 22 miles of darkness. This light revolves in a pot of lubricating mercury, six times a minute; It sends beams in two directions at once, giving two flashes to a revolution. It flashes at the same spot every five seconds, thus giving ships near Sandy Hook vital directional information.
