WASTE DRIVE
GETS START
HERE TODAY
Salvation Army. Will
Handle Collection Of
Material

The Advisory Committee of Jul
neaus Waste Salvage Project held
an organizational meeting today
and elected B. F. Heintzleman, rep
resntative of the Chamber of Com
merce, as chairman. Other mem
bers Of the committee are Don
Skuse, Juneau Rotary Club repre-
sentative; Claud Carnegie, Ameri-
can Legion; William Kennel, Boy
Scouts; Ella Smith, Juneau Wom-
ans Club
Task of the new committee is to
promote the salvaging of waste
material from Juneau, and to direct
this material back into the chan
nels of trade where it can be used
To aid in the country's war effort.
The committee accepted the pro-
posal that the Salvation Army, act
ing through Adjutant Stanley Jack
son, Juneau representative, act as
the collecting agency All mater
ials will be collected that can be
sold without loss by the Salvation
Army. Profits, if any, will accrue
to the Salvation Army, charitable
institution, and be used in social
welfare work at Juneau.
Captain Jackson will issue list
of materials desirable for salvage
purposes in few days. Residents
are asked to hold what material
they have on hand until the list
is published. The list will be
changed from time to time, de-
pending upon prices and market
conditions in the States. The pub
lie will be notified of changes IN
regular statements issued by Cap
tain Jackson.
The project will begin with an
initial drive, to be held in the near
future, and all accumulated mater
ials will be collected. After this,
certain collection days will be set
aside as often as the accumulation
of material warrants. Donors will
be asked to cooperate by delivering
materials to a depot which will be
located in the central business Sec
ton, easily accessible.
Arrangements are being made,
however, to collect the salvage
materials Tor families not able to
deliver the scrap themselves.
1t is also expected that arrange
ments will be made through which
material will be collected regularly
from retail stores.
| Mr. Heintzleman said that it is
hoped the work of collecting, sort
ing and baling will be carried out
by volunteer labor. The Boy Scouts
and public school groups will be
counted on to cooperate in the
gathering, sorting and baling.
The Advisory Committee will act
as an advisor group to the Saliva
ton Army on all matters. Col
lection of materials to be shipped
will be made SO that no scrap which
will not pay it's own shipping cost
will be collected. II
Higher grade materials will be
sent south currently by CONNER
cial steamer Less valuable scrap
will be stored and shipped at a
|, nominal COST, through the Govern
ment or otherwise.
Members of the Advisory Com
mittee will keep interest in the
drive alive by reporting regularly
TO their respective groups and urg-
ing continuous support.

Speaking Of Prunes-

Speaking Of prunes remind
most of us of the days when we
ate them because "they are good
for US" and would make our hair
curl, and how! though we who
had in the meantime learned that
all sorts of gruesome things made
our hair curl! But now that w
are grown up Tor are we) we eat
prunes because we know delicious
ways to fix them such as:
PRUNE SOUFFLE
% prunes
6 egg whites
A teaspoons sugar
Boil the prunes until a soft
mass and put them through a col
lander with little juice. Beat
the whites of six eggs until very
stiff and add the sugar. Then
whip prunes and whites of eggs
beaten until very stiff. Put in a
baking dish and set in a pan OF
boiling water and bake for fifteen
minutes. Chill and serve witt

"FASHIONETTES"

In New York we scarcely saw a
hat on the street-fiowers, ribbon
or velvet bows adorned the heads
of all females from II months to
~ years.
Victory red was the popular
color for accessories, from coats to
gloves and shoes, worn with black,
brown, or green as well as with the
light colored dresses.
All black without a vestige of
color, with all black accessories,
looked chic but depressing. Saw
several all brown costumes that we
liked better.
The Fifth avenue shops are
showing suits and dresses of pur-
pie for Fall, and guess the trickiest
hat color to wear with the purple
"a cerise red!
Winter hats are to have high
crowns with regular with
crowns, tall and pointed, or squar-
ed off at the top Puritan fashion.
