Sands Produce Various
Sounds in Wide Range

The "singing sands" of the Ara
bian desert have naystified travel
ers for thousands of years. These
sands produce the most unusual
sound effects, ranging from the
rumble of drums to the high
pitched twanging of harp strings.
Sounds are produced over the mu-
steal dunes by the movement of
sand grains in the wind.
Only sand grains of a certain
size, shape, and uniformity will
produce these interesting sounds.
This accounts for the vast acre
ages Of silent sand in many lands.

Our Use of Paper

Not only is America using vast
quantities of paper in the war eff
fort, but it's peacetime consump-
ton has always far surpassed that
of every other nation. For years
before this war, the annual per
capita use was $50 pounds in the
United States, 100 pounds in Eng
land, IS in Germany and 20 in
Japan.

Handy Chest Made
From an Old Buffet

MANY young homemakers are
A'A gaily setting forth to buy junk
furniture for remodeling. The first
thing they learn is to consider each
piece not for what it is but for
what it may be. The 40-year-old
buffet shown here was never beau
tiful in its youth and took itself
too seriously in heavy sort of
way. It seemed to be waiting there
in the junk yard for some young
modern to make cheerful use of
its sturdy materials.
The sketch shows how the main
part of the buffet was remodeled
to make a chest under window

Fine Powders

Chemists who measure, with a
complex apparatus, the areas of
fine powders to determine their
adsorptive value have found that
a cubic inch of some such parti-

removing carving that is glued on
and either putty or plastic wood
may be used for filling old screw
holes and even places where locks
have been in drawers and doors

down with sandpaper to remove
the high gloss before painting.

Thirty tons of Del-Mar-Va PEN

initial capacity of a new dehydrat-
ing plant being installed by the

Farm Fighters
Because farm men and youths of

peals to apply for draft deferment

manship, the Delaware USDA War
Board today notified all county War
Boards that their most important
assignment at this time is to make
certain that all essential farm wor-
kers be deferred and to convince
such workers of the vital part they
have in the war effort.
Dairy Labor
County USDA War Boards are
now receiving from local Selective
Service Boards lists of draft-defer-
red men who are qualified TO work
on dairy farms. The War Boards
are making a direct appeal to these
deferment cases to volunteer for
work on dairy farms, which have
been asked TO increase their pro-
duction of war foods in spite of
serious shortage of labor. Similar
appeals are being made TO Selec-
tive Service registrants between
the ages of 3S and As years who
are in nOn-deferrable jobs.

Following a special appeal by
Chester Davis. new War Food Ad
ministrator. for the planting of
still more war crops, Clarence Z.
