The emphasis will thus be put

who are more urgently needed in
war production, of replacing Wcrk-

with workers who because of age
cr physical disabilities may not be
able to pass Army tests, of speeding

this.

is where the first headache
will come, for no matter how

formidable obstacle. As this one
measures SKIS inches, has "a

check on 22S trades and has

coupons and stubs torn off and
disposed of according to direc-
tions, there is bound to be con-

Many of the registants will need

provide his help, the $500 local draft
boards and the 1900 offices of the
United States Employment Service
have asked employers and labor
unions for help.

a man is no good as a dynamic bal

operator, steel mill pulpit man or
template maker to name just four
of the 228 trades in which here is
a shortage of workers.
CLOSE CHECKUP
When the forms are filled out,
one goes to the local draft board
and the other to the nearest United
States Employment Office. Then
comes the checkup. Every man must
be interviewed and tested to prove
that he filled out his QUESTIONABLE
correctly.
A man who has been a grease
monkey isn't mechanic, jug
gler isn't a dynamic balancer,
an internal keyseater isn't an
usher, pulpit man isn't
preacher and a template maker
isn't a dentist. So employment
office tests must be given to
see that every man is correctly
classified.
What happens next is interesting.
If man is classified as drill
press operator but isn't working at
it and there is a shortage of drill
press operators. the Employment
Service will tell the man where he
can get such work and if he takes
the job. he will be building up his
own deferment status if he is per-
forming essential work in a war
production industry. Or. if q man
is qualified fer training in an es-
sential industry. he can be given
the opportunity to build up his
skill SC that in time he may be
given defermCnt.

A Quick Homemade Soup
Is Made From Fish Stock

The mere mention of home
made soup often brings a frown
to the housewives forehead. Now
everyone knows that frowns are
bad things as they make wrinkles.
The reason for said frown is
usually the fact that one pictures
soup in the making as an all day
process with the stove going all
day. Stuff, and nonsense, say we!
There are short order soups as
well as short order anything else.
Nearly everyone saves the
liquid from boiled fish and with
this as base the housewife can
get to work and in no more than
half hour have as fine a soup
for lunch or dinner as if she had
spent all day preparing it.
This soup is a good family style
shrimp soup and is made by mere
ly adding one quart of fish broth
to one pound of picked shrimps,
and bring to a boil. Then add
one pint of boiling cream, season
with salt and pepper and chopped
parsley; add one-half cup of
broken Saline crackers, and four
tablespoons of sweet butter. The
soup is all ready to serve as soon
as the butter is melted.
