WORKERS ASKED
NOT TO HUNT

Washington, D. c. (ILNS).-Chair-
man Paul " McNutt of the War Man
power Commission has appealed to
war workers to remain at their jobs
during the game hunting season if
their absence will slow down war pro-
duction. "About 100000 licenses
have been issued for the deer hunting
season in Michigan alone" he said.
'It has been estimated that between
5 and 6 million man hours will be lost
in that one state"

PANTRY PALAVER

PANlR GALA v Elk
Have you ever thought of the
amazingly important part played in
our civilization by the lowly can
opener?
Many regard the can-opener as an
article of no Importance, but the truth
is vastly different-in fact, the can
opener is the cornerstone of our mod
ern civilization. 1t matters little
whether the ean-opener Of your choice
be one of those elaborate contraptions
fastened to the kitchen wall or the
more common and humble variety
that is plunged into the tin by brute
force and which you push, lower, lift
and slug through to successful sepa-
ration of cover from can.
Food is the basis of all existence
Our modern machine civilization
could not exist without the existence
of food in modern containers which
enables long distance shipment, pres
ervation and quick preparation
born of desperation, doomed to pass
from the scene when tin is once more
available to the arts and necessities of
peace. Take the tin can from the
American pantry and you take us
back to primitive America, where
mans work runs from sun to sun;
h,rf 20 Il
and never done as well as today,
either
But however vital to our modern
existence the tin can and it's contents
may be, it would be useless were it
not for the opener of the can, the dime
store device which is the sesame to all
ures of sustenance and nectar by
which we live.
By virtue of this lowly device and
such brute strength and ornate vo-
cabulary as we may have developed,
we are enabled to slam quick lunch |
on the table and thus make our get
away from home and fireside.
So let us have proper regard and
deep respect for the can-opener, that
little item which brings us in touch
with calories, vitamins, bulk, flavor
and gustatory qualification, even
though it jabs our fingers and does
temporary damage to our tempers.
More than any other tool in our
possession, the can-opener is the in
strument of our release from bondage.
All other conveniences and comforts
would be of little avail without the |
surcease from cookery made possible |
by that devlish and yet delightful lit
tie contraption, the can-opener.
There should be monument to it's
inventor and another to the man or
woman who can make one that never |
slips and never fails. May there al
ways be cans to open, can-openers
with which to open them, and fami-
lies that will not suspect us of duck
ing our duty by an overly Jealous use
OF both of them.
AS has been said, folks may eat all
they can and can all they can't, but in
vain can they eat all they can and
can all they can't except by the grace
of the humble but great opener of
all cans, the five and dime item so
long belittled, the jibed at can-opener.
Have | made my point? If not, you
will find that, too, at one end of your
can-opener!

Attention Taxpayers

We, the undersigned, have vol
unfairly investigated the report,
published in the January % issue
of the Western News, in which the
special investigator, Joseph Devish,
leaves the impression that his in
vestigation had resulted in already
increasing the valuation Of Lincoln
County BY $4,000 with increased
taxes thercfrom of $4,000
We find this impression is er-
roneous inasmuch as the County
records prove -cnnclusiVely that the
increase in valuation and in addi-
fional taxes referred to was all
closed up and a matter of record
during June of 194l, whereas the
S22UOD0 appropriated by the County
for the investigation was not made
until in August, neither was Mr.
Dcvish employed until In August

The forest service in Lincoln
county is an organization that is
taking time by the forelock and is
beginning to train young men to
take the place of older men that
may be called into the army. Sew
eral weeks ago mention was made
of clauses for that purpose being
conducted at Libby. Similar work
is also in progress at Troy.
Ed Henrichs, forest ranger at
Troy, is in charge of classes at that
place. He is training boys OF II
years and older from the Troy high
school and it is said there are from
Il to is who are taking the course
The classes are held twice week,
on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
The instruction specializes on
lookout duties, fire fighting and
the tasks that fall on smokechascrs
The studies also cover maps and
how to use a compass, telephone
repairing, Identification and use OF
tree species, and such other sub
jects as firemen should know Elk
aminations are held after every two
lessons.
While one of the objects is tc
provide men for forest protection
work provided older men are called
away, yet it should be borne ir
mind that there is no assurance
that jobs will be provided for those
taking the course.
