Take My Word for 1t
BY FRANK COLBY.
SATURDAY JAMBOREE.

Walla Walla: How should we pro-
nounce "caduceus, the emblem OF
the Army Medical Corps?-W. L. B.
Answer: The caduceus, the myth
ical staff carried by Mercury, is a
rod with two wings and entwined by
two serpents. Say: kuh-DYOO-
see-us.
Clifton: I have noticed that most
speakers pronounce manufacture
as if it were spelled manufactured y
Why?-R. E. S.
Answer: Carelessness. We should
say: MAN-yoo-FAK- cher.
st. Joseph: Recently you stated
that the three golden balls Of the
pawnbrokers were not from the coat
of arms of the Medici family. But
in the same paper another col
umnist proves that you are mis-
taken. Observation-Disclosures.
Answer: Sorry, no retraction. The
early pawnbrokers of England were
not agents or members Of the Medici
family. They were certain mer-
chants of Lombardy who settled in
England and monopolized money
lending. They we're anything but
aristocrats, and had no arms. The
three golden balls which they
adopted as the sign Of their trade
were from the arms Of Lombardy.
The Encyclopedia Britannica says:
"It is now as we'll established as
anything of the kind can be that
the three golden balls were not,
as has often been suggested. from
the arms of the Medici family"
A San Francisco teacher sends me
this "howler" from a fourth-grade
paper: AN optimist is man who
looks after your eyes, a pessimist
looks after your feet" Teachers,
send me your classroom howlers.
An occasional laugh these days is
good for US. Names, Of course, will
not be used.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS

Geodetic Survey Output
OF Charts Skyrockets

The Coast and Geodetic Survey
produced approximately $4,000
nautical and aeronautical charts in
January, more that six times the
output in January, 1941. the Com
merce Department announced today.
While the output of charts, under
the stimulus of the defense program,
has been steadily increasing, the
japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
skyrocketed the demand from the
armed services, the Commerce De-
partment pointed out Continuance
of the January production rate will
bring output of charts this year to
more than 6,6OO000, compared with
2,727414 in 1941, it said.
Production Of aeronautical charts
in January was approximately eight
times greater than in January a
year ago. To keep abreast of the
demand for aeronautical charts, the
survey has tripled the number of
craftsmen engaged in this work, and
the presses printing these charts are
now operating "a hours day.

Opportunity in Jobs
Seen as Minimizing
Rejectee Hardship
Army Returns to Old
System Of Induction
On Physical Test

The willingness Of employers to
hire men pronounced unqualified
for Army service Is expected by
selective service officials to solve
the problems VI men who give up
their jobs and then fail to pass
their Army physical examinations
at he time of induction.
The original system Of Inducing
men at the time of their physical
examination by the Army was criti-
cized because Of the hardships men
found In being rejected after they
had wound up their civilian affairs.
See Conditions Changed.
In going back to that system
after period during which the
procedure Of giving men pre-induc-
ton notice after they passed their
Army physicals was followed-the
War Department, which ordered the
change, apparently felt the situa-
ton had changed and men will now
have no difficulty in getting jobs,
whether in their old place Of en-
ployment or a new one, 1t was ex-
planned.
The new system, providing i'm
mediate induction for registrants
found acceptable at the time of
their physical examination by the
Army, goes into effect March IS.
Actually, it goes into effect in
the District after today. The men
examined Monday, yesterday and
today will be called for April induc-
ton. They are the last under the
old system.
The remainder of those to be
called for induction in April will be
sent notice of induction instead Of
notice to report for their physical
examination by the Army.
Furloughs Under New Plan.
A call already has been issued to
the local boards for the induction of
registrants in March who were
found acceptable by the Army
Physical Examining Board during
February.
Under a new induction procedure,
selective service registrants will be
given furloughs Immediately after
passing Army physical examinations
to permit them to adjust their ci-
william affairs. Brig. Gen. Lewis B.
Hershey, director of selective serv-
ice, announced today.
At present selectees who pass
their physicals are Immediately in
Quoted and are subject to Army
rules and regulations, and therefore
can receive furlough only from
the service.
Gen. Hershey said the War De-
partment has given him assurance
that furloughs will be granted in
cases where the registrant, after in
duction. needs time to adjust his
affairs.

This years crop of apples is above

The export market is cut off by
global war. Apples, and all fruits
in fact, can be shipped in quanti-
ties to our armed forces and our
Allies only in dried and canned
forms. For all these reasons, fresh
apples are another food that we
can eat our fill of here at home.
In addition to their good flavor,
apples have another welcome wedge
into wartime meals. Served fresh,'
they need no sweetening at all.
Cooked, they need only be sweet

may sometimes be honey or corn

overlooked the silverware as she set
the example and slipped her soup
from the cup. BY this time there
were questioning glances. Was this
a new sort of game? What would
be the next course and would Peggy
still omit silverware?
Here 1t came-chicken legs, fried
a rich brown, and each leg duly
decorated with paper sleevelets.
Maybe this was planned to be a
silverless dinner. How novel! But
what next? Now Peggy passed
around a large dish of potato chips.
No silver needed thus far. But
would there be another vegetable?
Sure enough, here came stalks OF
asparagus and Hollandaise, just
made for ones fingers.
But what about a salad? It came
in due time-cold artichokes with
tiny paper cups of mayonnaise.
Well, now, that was cunning.
What would the dessert dish be?
Had Peggy and Leonard worked out
an appropriate dessert? OF course,
1t could be nuts and raisins-prob-
ably peanuts which could be opened
without nut crackers or shelled nuts.
Or maybe bits of cheese and crack
ers to eat in ones fingers.
But none of these guesses proved
correct. For the dessert course was
ice cream cones, by jimmy
crackee. Then as small cups of
black coffee were served, amid the

Canning Apples

Canning apples for this win
ter's pantry shelves has a three
fold advantage just now-it aids
in assuring a well-stocked pam
try at time when food sup
plies for the civilian are a real
problem; 1t releases the COM
mercially canned stocks to our
armed forces and Allies, and 1t
prevents food wastage. since be-
cause of emergency cold-storage
conditions many apples will
waste this fall unless used up
at once.
TN the fall October and No.
vember) it Is advantageous to
buy apples by the bushel. Fresh
from the trees, they keep well
with ordinary care as to tenn
perature and moisture" says
Apples: Their Home Use"
Apples packed raw tend to
shrink and leave the jar not
quite full. To prevent this pre-
cook before packing in the jars.
Pare the apples and cut into
the desired sizes. Precook by
boiling five 60 minutes in light
sirup or steam until wilted. If
apple sections must stand, pre-
vent darkening by placing in a
mild salt-and-vinegar solution
2 tablespoons of salt and 2
tablespoons of vinegar per gal
lon of water.
Apples take a thin sirup, one
part sugar to three parts of
water, boiled together until
sugar is dissolved. One bushel
of apples will can approximately
20 quarts and will take about
five pounds of sugar.
If sugar is short apples may
be canned without it with entire
safety. Simmer fruit until hot
through in its own juice or just
enough water to keep from
sticking. Pack into clean, hot
jars and process at $50 F. for so
minutes.
