Counterfeits Are
A Big Loss In
The Past Year

A 90 per cent reduction in losses
to the public through acceptance OF
counterfeit notes has been accom-
plished in the calendar year 1910.
During a recent five-year period
the American public was swindled to
the extent of $1,00O,00O a year by
accepting counterfeit notes. For the
year 1910, this loss was reduced to
about 100000.
The United States Secret Service
believes that the decrease is due to
it's "Know Your Money" campaign.
This effort, after a try-out that show
ed promise, was intensified in 1910.
The Secret Service "Know Your
Money" campaign is a national move
ment against crime. We want to
bring the utmost in publicity to bear
on this campaign, with newspaper
stories, magazine articles and educa-
tional pamphlets brought into homes
schools and business places, teaching
American everywhere how to detect
counterfeit money.
Our aim is to bring the public loss
by reason of counterfeit money to 6
negligible minimum. We are asking
the cooperation of our nations edi
tors and publishers.
The "Know Your Money" campaign
is deigned to remove from our you'll
the temptation to engage. in crimina
careers through the "easy money
counterfeting route. It is designe'
to save the taxpayer money by re

The German
War Machine Due
Health Interest

An eminent doctor has stated that
the apparent inexhaustibility of the
German war machine is partly due to
the continued Nazi interest in health
and that if Americas defense produc-
ton schedule is to be maintained at
high speed, America must look care
fully to the health of its industrial
man power.
The observation is that of DIR. VIC
tor G. Heiser, author of "An Ameri-
can Doctors Odyssey" and you're
the Doctor" He was quick to say
however, that America should not
emulate the dictator nation with any
such RECOMMENDATION of the population
for health's sake. The point ne die
make was that with the full coopera-
ton of labor, management, govern
ment and the public we in America
can accomplish the same degree OF
physical fitness and efficiency with
out RECOMMENDATION.
Fortunately industrial medicine has
found methods to prevent fatigue Of
workers so that neither the workers
health nor the production schedule
will be impaired. What is needet
now is voluntary cooperation to pu
these methods into wider use. The!
have already been adopted by man!
manufacturers, large and small.
Certainly the interest of manufac
turers in the health of their EN-
ployees is indicated by the recen
"clinic" of manufacturers and medi
cal experts in Muskegon, Mich.-th

BASKETBALL AT OCEAN CITY

BASKETBALL AT OCEAN CITY
Both the boys and girls basketball
teams went to Ocean City on Tues
day, February 25, intent on winning
both their games.
The girls won their game against
the Ocean City sextet with ease, even
though they were held to a low score
in the first quarter. Many OF the
substitutes had a chance to play In
this game since the game was close
ly contested.
The boys game was, however, not
80 easy for our quintet, and even
though they played hard game, the
score at the finish was in Ocean
City's favor.
SENIOR RINGS
On Wednesday, February 10, q
standard class ring was selected by
a committee composed of representa-
tives from each class in Snow Hill
High School.
Messrs. Godfrey and Vincent were
both present at the time the selec'
ton was made. A very beautiful ring
was chosen from Mr.. Vincent's group
The set comes in two sizes, large
one for boys and a smaller one fol
girls.
The idea of standard ring was
formulated by the present Senior
Class. It was decided that a stan
dard ring would cause less confusion
each year and would serve to bring
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1941-03-07

graduates in closer contact with each
other.
The ring is liked immensely by
everyone, and thus far only three
people of the Senior Class have not
ordered one.
OLD HOME PRIZE
Paying respect to a definitely out
standing member of the Senior Class
of 1941, Miss Leatrice Gaskill, who
will be the Old Home Prize recipient,
is certainly an honorable but a vast
task. The coveted honor of being
worthy of this award was bestowed
upon Leatrice by the faculty in recog-
milton of her undisputed leadership,
capability, dependability and unlim-
tied scholastic ability.
To those unacquainted with Lea
trice, a short review of her high
school career proves her truly worthy
of this prize. Leatrice entered Snow
Hill Schol in the eighth grade. From
then on she began to augment her col
orful career which eliminated with
the receiving of this award. Her var
ious contributions to school and
scholastic records indeed make hel
meritorious.
The sincere congratulations of hei
classmates are extended her.

Nut meats stored in covered glass
container, placed in the refrigerator
or as cold a place as possible, will
keep over the longest period of time.
This is probably due to the fact that
the temperature checks deterioration
of the fat in the nut meats.
