AUOid Writing To
Lonely Soldiers

Exchange of letters between
soldiers and unknown correspondents
is being discouraged by the war de-
partment because spies use exactly
this technique to obtain important
military information.
Secretary of War Henry l.. Stim-
son stated that there have been
many laudable organizations formed
with the object of writing to lonely
soldiers. These groups, however,
have placed heavy burden on pro-
tective agencies against espionage.
He said that evidence has come to
the department that the technique
is still in use by bogus organizations
for the purpose of obtaining infor-
nation against army activities.
1t is urged, of course, that civil
ians write to soldiers they know
since the letters are an aid to the
building of morale.

A stunning surprise play helped
Bellefontaine get away to an early
lead over Bluffton High in the game
here last Friday night, and the Pr
ates did not fully recover from the
shock until the last half when they
finally settled down to score 20 points,
after trailing by 80. ). Receiving the
opening kickoff, Bellefontaine deliber-
ately ran the ball to one side OF the
field. Over at the other sleeper
knelt, unseen by Bluffton defenders :.
Without bothering to call signals,
Bellefontaine swung into formation,
the ball was snapped from center,
there was perfect pass to man IN
the clear, and a touchdown was scored
on the first play of the game.

Retail Sales ShOJU
Increase In County

Retail sales in Allen county
showed an increase of SIS, 5,889.57 for
the first eight months of this year,
as compared with 1941 records, it
was announced this week by state
sales tax commission officials.
Sonsidering that automobile sales,
always largest single source of sales
tax revenue, practically are non
existent this year, indications are
that sales of cothing, furniture and
other taxable items has more than
doubled in the county.
At the close of October Allen
county's sales tax receipts amounted
to $571,775.96, against $555, 1868
for the same period last year.
This is the best record in Ohio for
increased retail sales.
