HOW WARS ARE WON

(From the Journal of Electrical Workers)
AN American army officer returns from Great
Britain, after weeks of observation, with a
report. High up on his list of standards for win
ming wars are:
morale Of working force
civilian morale
Low in his list of standards strange to say
is military operations. That is why no govern
ment has been willing to sweep away social bene-
fits. Social benefits are not now regarded as gifts,
but as nstrumentalities for producing national
spirit.
Moreover, in the present nature of modern
warfare lies a condition for producing unity Civil
lans under fire are in as much danger-or in more
danger-than soldiers Boys who go to the front
can not feel that slackerS remain at home. All
must participate. All share alike.

Mems Shirts


Prices of mems shirts have not vet
gone up appreciably. Gu found in
recent tests of IA brands reported in
April Gu Eeports. But two of the
brands have gone down in quality
since Gus last tests. Both are made
of lower count fabrics than they were
a year ago.
One improvement has been made in
this years shirts; Gu noticed less
shrinkage and less bad fit due to
shrinkage than year ago.
Among the Best Buys were Wards
Ashley Cat. No. 1851 ($1.29 plus post

Campus Square is distributed by

Typewriter Ribbons and Carbon Paper
Gu tested Ill ribbons, 80 brands of
carbon paper, to find out which brands
give best value. Tests were made on
an electrically operated typewriter,
with constant touch and using tipping
sheets of standard quality. Ribbons
were tested to see how long they
would give legible impression and
how fast they filled up the type. Car
bons were tested both for wear and
manifolding quality.
i Gu found that ribbons for standard
machines are generally better than
portable ribbons. Users of portables
can get better value by buying stand
ard ribbons and winding them on port
able spools.
In buying carbon paper, weight and
finish should be considered, as we'll as
quality. There's real economy in suit
ing the paper to the typist and the
job to be done. For example, typist
with heavy touch will need hard
linked carbon paper. A typist making
many copies has to use a light weight.
A chart published in Gu Reports sug-
lgests the proper weights and mixing
for most office jobs.
|, Best Buys of the typewriter ribbons
| were Mittage & Volger No. 1000 ($D +;
= Mittag & Volger No. 900 (50c); and
Old Town Tan Box (50c). Best Buy
carbon sheets were Tablet and kreko.
