Approximately year ago we went
overheard. in the desire to be cheer
full. and promised there would be
no gasoline shortage in this coun-
try
We argued the matter learnedly,
starting from the fact that we alone
| of all the great nations possess more
petroleum and more refining ca
pacity than we and our allies could
use.
Something perhaps a Washing
| ton rumor-tells us we were wrong.
For II states and the District OF
Columbia there is a very distinct
shortage of motor fuel and the
rest of the country probably will not
escape.
About the same time we were GER
tain, but the notion was tco silly
to dignity with even passing mel-
ton, that the United States never
would face troublesome food
shortage.
The reasoning was similar to that
| in the case OF gasoline.
We'll. now we're drinking coffee
with only cne lump of sugar Many
restaurants are refusing second cups
to patrons. Pepper and paprika are
ratfoned to the trade. Bananas are
six cents each, and the fruiterer
wonders whether there will be any
soon. Tea is on the way out. SO Is
pineapple.
All these, of course, are imported
The premium upon shipping space
makes them hard to get.
just to clear our conscience OF
the bad advice on gasoline, how
ever. let us record today that we
are going to meet up soon with
scarcitieS in a lot of foodstuffs that
do not have to be brought into the
United States by sea-things that
huge quantities.
We shall find these foods scarce
for two simple reasons that didn't
occur to us year ago.
First, because the Army, the Navy
and war manufacture are drafting
cur manroWer SO heavily that the
farmers can not get enough hell
to plant, cultivate and harvest thu
crops.
Second, because our railroads are
coming close to the limits Ct theil
carrying capacity.

REGIMENTING EVERYONE
TO MEET ONE PROBLEM

There was a worthy goal in sight when
the legislature adopted the state law re-
lating to child labor. 1t was the doing
away with of sweat shop labor and child
slavery in factories. Interpretation OF
the law. and administration of it by an
all-powerful bureaucracy, have perverted
it completely.
Now parent cannot say to his 17-year-
old son, Surely, you can go to work IN
the corner grocery store" The parent
must say, instead, "Son, you've got to
ask the state if you can go to work there.
The same is true of work on the farms.
Not only must the boy find the place
where he is needed, but he must then go
through the red tape of getting state
work permit And that is not all. The
man who employs him must also have
a permit. And the restrictions govern
ing both are many and varied.
The law that was intended to outlaw
child labor in sweat shops and unscrupu-
lous factories has reacted to keep young
men and women from learning to work
IT all. 1t forces most of them into idle
ness, even when their country needs their
labor 1t is strange, but true, that they
can Join the army or navy at an age
when they are not yet permitted in Cali
fornia to go to work.

AID IN REDUCING

Conversely, motions epeated
many times over long periods of
time literally wear down fatty
tiSsues-as you can see in the fig
ure of the wand-like long distance
runner. When you wish to reduce
your arms use the old Jogging
along distance-runners idea. Swing
You might start exercising them
back and forth many. many times.
Yo umight start exercising them
for ten minutes daily. and increase
gradually until you work up to
twenty minutes.
The appearance of the skin also
is important in summer-especially
he skin at the elbow. For th2f
reason every woman, who has any
self-pride takes a good stiff elbow
rub with her bath. Keep a brush
for this purpose in your bath
and don't forget it.

Altho it might be termed just a
little late to begin ones vegetable
garden we nevertheless admire Ar
den Baker for his grim determination
to obtain seed potatoes. After search
ing every store in town and calling
on potato growers in the vicinity he
finally found enough of the tuber type
seed in Millen Geiger's refuse. When
doubts were expressed as to the pro-
fiigacy of tn seed, Baker indicated
that all he wanted was the satisfac-
ton of planting the blamed things.
Of course, with potatoes sky high no
one would object if a bushel or SO
would result from the planting, says
Baker.
With the drive for scrap rubber

be of help:

one-third longer than the average, it
was stated by Harry Barnes, high
school agricultural instructor.
Well, well, it's small world after
all. You'll agree with us after we
tell you this one about Ebert Kibele,
kermit's elder brother and a buck
private down at Camp Bowie, Texas.
On the street in Ft. Worth the other
day he overheard one man say to an
other "Good morning Mr.. Triple
horn" 1t sounded like Bluffton, so
Ebert introduced himself and found
it to be Dave Tripplehorn, oldtime
Bluffton resident and a brother of
Fred, John and Dan.
Accuracy certainly is the key work
in the vocabulary of d. C. Bixel,
Bluffton watch repairman. We over

Bixel and a customer in which loss
of 10 seconds in watch during a

a matter of grave concern.
