4 GREAT ECONOMY Be
CAUSE Of EXTRA WEAR

"After trip to Kilauea, the active
volcano of Hawaii, my Ne5lin-soled
shoes were the only ones not abso-
lutely ruined. Many in our party
wore hob-nailed boots" said Miss Jean
Plane of Seattle, Washington.
The sharp jagged lava of kilauea
cuts an ordinary sole to pieces quickly.
That Neolin Soles stood the test but
emphasizes their toughness and dur
ability. These qualities are built into
them by scientific process. Women
and men and children. too-who are
hard on shoes should buy them with
Ne5lin Soles. They come IN many
styles, and because of the extra wear
they give, are great economy.
And any repairnan will re-sole your
worn shoes with Nc6lin So!cs, which
are flexible and waterproof as we'll as
long-wearing. They are made by The
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., Akron,
Ohio, who also make Wingfoot Heels,
guaranteed to outwear all other heels.

UNNECESSARY CALLS

DoEsN'T it seem strange that the tcle- ;
phone company should ask you not to
make unnecessary callsl
THERE was time when the telephone
company openly and consistently advo-
Gated free use of the wires, even for social
conversations But times have changed.
Let's get the big job cleaned up first and
do our social and non-essential talking
later.
We must still save telephone calls in order
to conserve labor and materials. AS to
what is an unnecessary call, it should
not be hard for each to decide that for
himself.

week or two i'll the barracks it be-
came obvious to me that we were
all smoking too many cigarets. The
little corporal, too, began taking his
first one between first call and rev.

call each morning 40 pairs of feet
would strike the barracks floor in
chorus, and 40 hands go upward to
the shelf ovcr the hunks, and 40
matches scratch. and flicker in the
mornings semi-darkness. From then
on we smoked as we dressed.

periods, smoked after mess. In fact
we smoked after everything. l pro-
posed, TO my bunkie, one Sunday aft
ernoon as we were lounging in the
squad room. that we ought to do
something to curb this habit, and
a lively discussion followed. Mitch
was lying OH his bunk nearby, ap-
parently asleep. After the talk had
progressed somewhat he rose grave,
ly, gave his trousers hitch, and
grimacing nischievously as he came
out of his rap, strolled to our group.
"Say," he interrupted, why don't
you have pulpit installed for these
Sunday gloom -fests?" We all wait
ed for the rest of it, and were not
disappointed.

drowsy sarcasm. why, down in
Mexico, some years ago, knew
heather Mexican, 95 years old, who
smoked cigarets all day and most
of the night, great black ferocious
looking things. and he inhaled every
uff and he had been doing it for
I yer 20 years. Well sir, told that

of laughter followed and there the
sern onizing ceased. Scotty reached
for hi, cigarets, the others follow
ing his lead and soon clouds OF
tobacco smoke filled that corner
of the squad room. Mitchell salut-
ed the group sravely, did an about

and was soon sound asleep again.
