st am almost through with my
Six-weeks' course here. This same
course, incidentally, once required six
months to cover. The great demand
for hospital corpsmen caused the re-
duction in time.
"The subjects taught here are Ma
terra Medica, first aid, hygiene, anat-
omy and nursing. The first four have
petty officers as instructors and the
last is taught by nurses.
ST honestly believe I am in the best
branch an enlisted man can join. Do
not think I am attempting to build
up the corps when I say that the
food here is the best an enlisted man
can get in the navy. We have good
beds and lockers, instead of bother
some hammocks and seabags."
"The whole state of Texas would

THIS WEEK
FOR VICTORY
HUNTERS CAN MAKE WAR
CONTRIBUTION.

Hunters, here's a chance to do ar
extra job during the season this year
Save your used shot gun shells.
Save the down feather of waterfowl
Save the fats from deer and elk
They're all useful, federal officials
interested in war emergency activities
explain, in the war effort.
There will be 1000 tons of brass
available for the war in the dis
charged shells saved. The down
feathers can be used for numerous
comforts for military forces. The excess
fats from deer and elk killed this year
will weigh 5,5O0,0OO pounds. These
fats are invaluable in the manufacture
of explosives.
U. S. NEEDS OLD SILK STOCKINGS
Would that be a run in your stock
ing, lady?
Don't let it bother you. That stock
ing can now become useful item in
the war program, says the WPB. The
silk or nylon it contains can be
worked over to make powder bags for
firing big shells at the enemy.
Silk bags are more useful than bags
of other materials because they auto
matically clean the inside of the gun
when it is fired. Other materials re-
quire special cleaning.
A collection campaign will soon get
under way to pick up all discarded
silk and nylon hose that Americas
women can give up, and they're be-
ing asked to save them for the event.
