physical examination the only re-
naming hurdle.
Draft boards were cautioned last
night by Mai Guiton Morgan. ex-
ecutive assistant to Selective Service
Director c. A. Dykstra, that regis
trant may have only one classifl-
cation at a time and this should
be the lowest-the farthest removed
from military service-to which he
is entitled.
Responsibility Stressed.
In a national radio address, Maj.
Morgan stressed the responsibility
given each local board, which has
sole authority to classify, subject
to the right of appeal by regis
tered man or a Government appeal
agent.
This decentralization of au-
thority, he pointed out, is the spirit
of the Selective Service Act, which
is planned fundamentally to pro-
tect alike the social and economic
welfare of the individual. his de-
pendents. his local community and
the Nation.
Maj. Morgan explained that class
| includes men available for mill
tary service or for limited military
duty, members of the land and
naval forces: students allowed de-
ferment until next July and stu
dents held fit for only limited
service. Glass 2. he cited, is COM
posed of men necessary" in civilian
activity, class 3 of those deferred
because of dependents. and class 4
of several classes of deferred men
those who have completed military
service, those deferred by law. I'M
naturaziled aliens, clergymen. con-
Scientious directors and men ply
sically. mentally or morally unfit.
Having determined that the man
does not. belong in class 4, 3 or o.
said Maj. Morgan, "the board then
notifies the man to report for ply
steal examination, and. in the event
he is found to be acceptable accord
ing to physical requirements and
regulations of the Army, the board
then places him in class l."
The board then must determine
whether he is in class Unavailable
for immediate service-or belongs in
some other subdivision of the first
general classification, the officer
/ pointed out
! Even after the registrant has been
placed in IA. found physically fit
by board physician and ordered
to report to an induction station,
Maj. Morgan added, he will not be
in the Army until after he has been
passed as physically. mentally and
morally fit by the Army Medical
Corps at the induction station"
A large number of selectees al
ready have been rejected by Army
doctors after passing civilian medical
tests. This is ascribed partly to
the fact that specialists are on duty
at the Army induction centers and
partly to the greater familiarity of
medical officers with the physical
exactions of Army life and their
unwillingness to accept any one
whose stamina they doubt.

played in stores where only retail

the official emblem, centered on the

granted only to those merchants
who employ Union clerks eX-
clusivcly. The demand for this
Card means the employment of
Union clerks who always advance
the sale of all Union Label prod
ucts. Insist upon the display of
the Store Card of the Retail Clerks

ton.

EXAMPLE

Business men should set an example
to labor in personal sacrifice for the
country's defense. Business men can
not ask labor to work longer hours
at moderate wages unless business
men, too, are willing to forget any
expectancy Of war profits and play the
game as American institutions should
We must have a country united for
defense.-Gen. Robert E. Wood, chair
man, Sears, Roebuck & Co., in Forbes

What's The Cost of Operating a
Refrigerator?


Refrigerator?
When you buy a refrigerator-ice
or mechanical-ask the salesman (1)
How much power or ice is required
to operate, say. 6 cubic foot box
for a month when empty, to maintain
certain temperatures (2) What is
the cost of this much power or ice IN
your neighborhood
Failing to get the facts about the
power or ice needed, you might fall
back on some rough estimates which
the Bureau of Home Economics has
made after studying different types
Of boxes in operation and observing
the experience of others. These
figures are averages based on study
Of 6 cubic foot empty refrigerators
operating at room temperature OF
go degrees and maintaining good re-
frigerating temperature.
Ice refrigerators Of this size will
require about 700 pounds of ice
month. Electric refrigerators will
use approximately 80 kilowatt hours
q month. Kerosene refrigerators will
take Is gallons month to keep cool
A gas refrigerator will use about
$500 cubic feet of manufactured gas,
or 1000 cubic feet of natural gas.
Bearing in mind that these are esti-
mates and not invariable yardsticks,
YOU can find out the comparative op-
Grating costs of ice, kerosene, gas, and
electric refrigerators in your neigh
borhood without going farther than
your telephone.
In Washington, ID. c., where cleo
tricity is comparatively inexpensive, a
6 cubic foot electric refrigerator
would cost around 90 cents a month
to use A refrigerator using manu-
factured gas would cost $1,40 month
to operate. A kerosene refrigerator
would use 81 worth Of fuel a month,
and an ice box would melt $4.20 worth
Of ice to keep your food cool for a
month.
Watermellons Should Be Plugged
Best way to find out how ripe a
watermelon is, is to have it plugged.
Then you can see and taste for
youdself how good-or how bad-the
melon actually is.
If the dealer isn't willing to plug
a melon that you may or may not de-
eide to buy, do the second best thing
and try to judge the melon from the
outside.
Look for one that is firm, well
shaped, with good bloom on its
Surface. A good bloom means that
the melon has velvety hue over its
Surface.
Then turn the melon over and look
at the part that was on the ground
while the fruit rippened. If it is a
yellowish white color, then it is ripe
.And pick a big watermelon if you
want to get more melon and less
seeds.
If the stem end is soft or discoIor-
ed, don't buy. That is a sure sign
the watermelon will be a lemon
