WAR ORDERS CHANGE
CONSUMER HABITS

Recent War Production Board and
Office of Price administration orders
set top prices on more things you buy
cut off production of more things you
use, reports the Consumers Counsel
Division of the L. S. Department OF
Agriculture.
Here are some that will affect your
family's living habits and your pocket
book:
Stores that sell radios, monographs,
washing and ironing machines, house
hold cooking and heating stoves and
ranges must pOSt-where you can see
them-the top prices that are permitted
to be charged for these articles. In
every case, the top prices must moi
be more than the prices charged on
March 10. SO if you must buy any Oh
these goods, be sure to look for the
list of top prices. If you don't SEE
it in the store, ask the manager tt
show it to you.
The Government has set top prices
that stores and statesmen selling
vacuum cleaners and refrigerator
may charge. Stores that sell these pro
ducts must post the top prices; travel
| ing statesmen must see that the tOl
prices are on the labels attached to tn
goods. BE sure you know what price
are before you buy.
TO prevent runaway prices on exist
ing supplies of "A household electrical
appliances, like tOaSterS, fans, electrl
razerS, whose production stops on Ma.
81, another Office of Price Admins
tration order set the top price retailer
could charge for those they had Il
stock. That's the price they asked o
March 80. But It's up TO consumers t
check these prices-they don't have t
be posted.
No more oil burners and coal StOkel
for home use may be made after Ma
81. HOmeOwnerS on the East Coast an
in Washington and Oregon, who ha
converted coal furnaces to oil burners
are urged to dig out their old co;
CRATES and 90 back To using coal fo
heating.
Golf club manufacture is -Stoppe'
, Sales of plumbing and heating cquil
mcnt and accessories costing over Sol
have also been stopped To conserve q.
listing supplies for essential buildin
IIomeowncrS who take down the
stove pipes at the end of the heath
season are warned not to throw the
away this year Clean them and StOl
them carefully for next winter.
The Salvage for Victory committee
have renewed their drive to get
more old rubber. Householders are b
: ing asked to hunt out every pOSSib
pound whether i'm old tires and inn
tubes, hot water bottles, bath mat
rain coats, or any other form But
L sure that you can't make them uSal
t yourself, before You give them away.

ILeningrad. 1t fed the heroic be-
sieged, with ammunitions, arms,
reinforcements and food.
Our car sped along over the
smooth highway. On our left we
could see the shore where the front
line passes. The road is not far
from the shore, but there was no
time TO have a good look. We had
TO slip through the area of German
fire with all possible speed.
We climbed on the shore later
and proceeded along a high road
Iand soon we stopped before a SEN
try at the outskirts of Leningrad.
We entered the beleaguered city
for the first visit in a long time.
Everywhere as we came into the
city we could see that Hitler had
paid with thousands of men for
every foot of ground he gained.
The harder he pressed the more in
tense was the resistance.
Through il all the peopie-even
old men and girlS--worked on in
the factories to supply the front
line fighters.

Ter could hurl against it because of

reached the shore of Lake Ladoga.
The sentry looked through my pa
pers. With a wave Of his little red
flag, he admitted me TO the ice
road across the lake-the way to
Leningrad. NJ
The city, struggling in the grip
of the enemy blockade had built
this road and connected it with
the railway lines on both ends.
Thus IL became a throbbing artery
which linked Leningrad with the
rest of the country.
All winter incessant files of
heavy truckS--thouSands of them
dashed over the Ladoga ice road.
Soviet airplanes guarded the
road.
And not for a single minute docs

"Oh yes. you do, Patsy . e.

Loudly emphatic, Sarah pushed
over a suit. The smallest they
had hung slack on that little
frame. "Get your lesson over,
and come hack for little chat"
"Will you unfasten my locket,
and keep IL safe for me?" Patsy
presented her back, and Sarah's
fingers fumbled at the nape of
the warm little neck. IL might
lose it in the water, and It's my
only treasure" There was a
sudden glow in the brown eyes.
'It opens but no fair peek

NO FAIR PICKING:
"No fair peeking?" Sarah
chuckled, putting the locket into
the drawer. Her eyes followed
the child when she came back,
shivering as she lowered herself
into the shallow end. The
smallest shrimp of them all.
Watching Patsy. scared but
resolute, take her diving lesson
Sarah's throat contracted pain
fully. If ever there was child she
longed to pick up and make of
with, Patsy was that child.
She needed a home. Oh, she
had one, so-called. A tall, gra.
house in the East COS, with quar-
tiers on the top floor remote
and hygienic for Patsy ano
her governeSs.
Not what Sarah would call z
home, though. She longed to take
Patsy to her sisters shabby house
in the Bronx. Full of warmth anC
noise. and kids tumbling all ovei

When Patsy was dressed again
Sarah kept her laughing anc
joking behind the counter, while
the children were called for. II
