Used Silk NyIon
Stockings Quest By
Camp Fire Girls

With the War and Navy De.
partments in quest of used silk
and nylon stockings for use as
powder bags for guns of major
cslibre. Browning Camp Fire Girls
have placed suitable boxes in var
ious local stores retailing this
commodity to accommodate dom
ors.
1t is not expected of Brown
ing women to donate stockings
that m q v still be seryiceable.
However, stockings in the service
of their country in these times
when United Nations manpower
is called upon to the uttermost
on behalf of a decent world in
which to live, would be splendid
testimonial to donors.
Silk. it is explained. is the only
substance which burns complete
Iy, with the result that its use in
connection with exploding am
munition d o. not necessitate
cleaning of the gun before re-
loading. While nylon does not
have this virtue it is none the
less vital in other important war
work.
On behalf of the Camp Fire
Girls quest, Mrs. John C. Ewers
urges that stockings be launder-
e d before being donated that
they will be in readiness for war
use.

Community Chest
Proposed TO Solve
Browning Problem

A committee including Ere d
Getty. chairman; J. L. Sherburne,
Percy Nash. Stewart DesRosier,
Rex Campbell and Frank P. Sher-
burne. which was appointed at a
meeting o t representatives o +
various fraternaI . n d service
groups last week to consider the
need of q community chest in
Browning, met in the Lions Room
Of the Yegen Hotel last night to
consider the projects phases 10
more detail.
A budget Of $1,000. subscribed
by Browning business establish
ments and individuals, who feel
disposed towards tn e project,
would be the immediate quest.
The community chest, which
aims to separate the chaf from
the wheat in the allocating of
pooled funds to various local and
outside groups and institutions,
had it inception in the Lions Club
recently.
Its need n Browning as in
numerous towns and citiesthrough.
out the country has developed
from appeals for financial sup.
port made by solicitors in num-
bers that annually result in un-
sound economy.
By budgeting financial support
and by referring appeals to q
community chest committee for
the determination of validity of
support, it is explained. Brown
ing's problem will be nearer the
point of solution.
Nearly 20 groups and institu-
tions. besides individuals, annual
ly tap the community for fnan-
cial assistance, house-to-house
soliciting of representatives re.
sulting in a drain of funds in
which n numerous cases h e
smallest one gets h e biggest
piece of pie.
Under the community chest
plan there would be an equitable
distribution of u n d g, which
would be formed under a quota
plan. In this way local groups
which otherwise stand to be de-
prived of their deserving share
of what the community aims to
provide them would be upper
most.
The community chest plan. it
is explained. would eliminate the
need of house-to.house soliciting.
In fact, it would not be permit
ted.
