get together a group of women
who would prepare and serve
the food. The money to buy the
food was raised by contributions.
At that time the stove at Fell
loWship House was an old one
with only two small burners. So
Mrs. Glossbrenner herself pre-
pared all the hot dishes at home
and carried them to the Fellow
ship House to be served. Now,
also through voluntary contribu-
tions-there's a shiny and ade-
quate new stove so the food is
all prepared at Fellowship House.
In summer time there's huge
porch for sitting out. In winter
there's a blazing fire in the big
fireplace.
Through Rear Admiral Pet
tengill it was arranged to have
the orchestra from the Navy
School of Music to play for these
parties once month. Other
Saturdays they dance to the mu-
sic of juke-box. It's gala night
when the Navy School orchestra
comes-and there are hot bis
cults and chicken then too.
Other churches have become
interested in these successful
parties and so have other organ
1zations. Last year one chapter
OF the OAR gave up its annual
luncheon and instead gave the
money toward making decora-
tlons and presents for a Christ
mas party for the servicemen.
If you'd like to help keep these
parties going-right now there's
a crying need for some new
tables-they don't have to be
new really if they're good and
strong. But the ones the service
men are using now are getting
pretty frail and wobbly.

next day. They didn't, it seems,
know any one in Washington
and they knew very little about
the city itself. Mrs. Drysdale
wanted to talk to them, but the
bus was crowded and she felt
rather shy and embarrassed. So
she got off the bus at her house
without having said a word to
the young men. But she thought
a good deal about them that eve
ming.
The next day she went to her
regular Sunday school class.
(She teaches at the Chinese Sum
day SCHOOL, and again she went
by bus This time she saw one
lone sailor-so she took her cour-
age in hand, and she asked him
to come and sit beside her and
talk to her. She asked him lot
of questions, and he gave her a
lot of answers-which, when
boiled down, amounted to this:
That there were lots of lonely
young servicemen In Washing
ton every week end with no place
to go and no friends. So Mrs.
Drysdale got busy.
Mrs. Drysdale had some good
Ideas as to what to do to give
young men good time. She has
three sons of her own. Two are
on active duty as lieutenants in
the Army Air Forces-both with
fighter squadrons and the
youngest has been sworn in as
an aviation cadet and is waiting
to be called. The only pieces of
jewelry that Mrs. Drysdale wears
are the silver wings of the elder
sons-the tiny gold wings of the
young cadet and the two identi-
flcation solo crash tags" which
she has as bracelets. They are
fine looking boys all three-she

STATE MAY ASK
FOR DEFERMENT
OF FARM YOUTHS
COMMITTEE THINKS STEP WOULD
HELP ALLEVIATE LABOR
SHORTAGE

Montana plans to ask the army
whether. to help alleviate an impend-
ing farm labor scarcity, skilled farm
youths may be deferred from selective
service.
The farm labor subcommittee to the
Montana land use planning committee
decided to ask Brig. Gen. Lewis B,
Hershey, national director of the draft,
for a statement Of policy on that
question, or alternatively whether al
ready indicted farm workers could be
furloughed home from training camps
to help when the growing and harvest
ing seasons are in full swing.
Jay G. Diamond, federal marketing
service statistician and committee sec
rotary, said the livestock industry, es-
pecially, needs help in Montana. He
said a decline in production Of lamb,
mutton and wool in Montana possibly
might result unless potential scarcity
of sheep workers, shearers and lambers
was alleviated.
In sugar beet production, commit
tee spokesman indicated, about 1900
workers are needed to handle each
years crop. Half the number ordinarily
are transient workers, but even that
supply, along with the others recruited
in the state, has been affected serious
" by the draft, Diamond said.

JAPS MAY WORK
IN BEET FIELDS
NTPPONEsE ON COAST LIKELY TO
BE SENT AS LABORERS TO
MOUNTAIN AREA

A plan for the evacuation of Japa-
nese-some American-born as well as
aliens-to the Rocky mountain sugar
beet area, was presented to federal Of
ficiaIs by a special committee OF the
Los Angeles county defense council.
Thomas G. Clark, enemy alien con-
troll co-ordinator for the western
states. and his assistant, James E
Harrington, heard the plan explained
at a meeting Of the executive commit
tee of the county civilian defense by
Hal Ryan, chairman Of the county ag-
ricultural resources committee.
The plan calls for the removal OF
all alien japanese, American japanese
under the age Of Is years and all
japanese who have citizenship but
who have been visitors or have come
from Japan at any time since June
II, 1910, who reside within SO miles
Of the Pacific coast and Mexican Dor
der, OF within a 10-mile radius OF
mt1nition plants or military camps"
Removal of all other japanese who
have American citizenship would be
by their own volition, upon invitation.
If it be not voluntary, then federal
action can be utilized.
Under the plan the United States
department of agriculture viii be
charged with the responsibility Of util-
izing this labor to the fullest extent
in the Rocky mountain sugar beet area,
and the federal security administration
would have the responsibility Of pro-
viding housing facilities.

WILSON GIVES
TIPS TO STATE
FLAX GROWERS
PROPER SEEDED PREPARATIONS
AND CONTROL OF WEEDS
VI PRIME FACTORS

AS Montana farmers prepare to seed
more acreage to flax to help meet
the need for more oilseed crops useful
to the war effort, they are reminded
by Fred S. Wilson, superintendent Of
the North Montana branch experiment
station at Havre, that proper seeded
preparation and control Of weeds are
two important factors In successful
flax production.
Because a firm seeded is very i'm
portant, tillage implements that tend
to loosen the soil to any depth should
not be used, he said The rod weeder
is a good implement to use because
when set shallow it does a good job
Of killing small weeds and it also
tends to pack the soil. If packer Is
used it should be OF the subsoil type.
In weed control the important thing
is to get such weeds as Russian thistle
and pigweed to terminate and kill
them. Then seed Immediately.
Best results with flax at the branch
station have been obtained on summer
fallow. Recommended flax varieties
for Montana are Bison, Newland and
Reserve Bison is wilt-resistant but the
other two are susceptible to wilt
Farmers are again urged by r. j.
McKenna, chairman OF the Montana
USDA war board, to collect all avail
able scrap metal they may have on
their farms and turn 1t in to help
in the war production program. "Our
campaign to get the scrap moving
from rural areas into regular trade
channels Is meeting with general sue
cess but it should be augmented and
speeded wherever possible" he said
County USDA war boards have COM
plete information on how scrap metal
is to be disposed Of McKenna said
