A new element, meanwhile, has
been tossed into the controversy.
Late yesterday national selective
service announced a Nation wide
adjustment of draft calls to insure
that the remaining supply of avail
able single and childless married
men is exhausted throughout the
country before the first fathers are
called.
This leveling-of process will mean
that fathers will be called sooner in

reach them until November or De-

said they would have to call them

Conserving Nails

Many American roofers find that
their major problem arising out OF
war conditions is their inability to
get nails. The home owner plan
ming to re-roof his home before the
war is over can help to conserve
nails by choosing asphalt strip form
shingles instead of individual shin
giles. Only about a third as many
nails are needed to apply asphalt
strip shingles, and less labor is re-
quired. As there is also some short
age of labor in the building indus
tries, the use of strip shingles Is
doubly helpful.

Certain scientists maintain that
crickets are almost infallible as
thermometers. They claim that if
one takes the number of chirps
cricket makes in IA seconds and
adds 40, the result will be the cor

is said, gives the current tempera-
ture within one degree rs per cent
of the time, and within two degrees
80 per cent of the time.
