long years OF service:
Never pile pots and pans on top
of each other. Sooner or later
they'll topple over and chips of
enamel will fly. Hang each from
hook, or set them separately on
shelf.
Don't let pans boil dry or let
food in them burn. Enamelware
conducts and holds heat efficient
ly, so that once the contents have
come to the boiling point the
flame should be turned low.
Never dash cold water into a

changes in temperature cause too
rapid contraction or expansion OF
the metal base, which may cause
it to buckle" Also, if water
must be added to the food you
are cooking, it should be heated
first.
Never scour enameled utensils
with steel wool or other harsh
abrasives. They scratch. Use soap
and hot water, just as you do for
dishes
If food sticks or is baked on an
enameled pan, don't scrape it loose
with knife-Soak the pan in hot
water and then wash as usual. Or
if this doesn't do the trick, fill
the pan with soap and water
simmer slowly until all the parti-
cleS soften and loosen.

COTTON NOTES

Tight weaves in cotton textiles
will be eliminated to save thread.
Manufacturers making diapers must
continue to make these essential
items, and can't turn to other lines.
Chintz is being used for garden
clothes.
FAST FEATHERING FRIENDS
Chicken raisers are cautioned by
agriculture experts to buy fast
feathering fowls if they want good
broilers.' The reason: this type of
breed doesn't get sunburned, hence
develops faster and has superior
meat. Thousands of booklets on
disease-control among chickens and
turkeys, designed to increase the
life-rate of our barnyard fowls, are
now being printed.

/. MCKINNEY ON BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM f. MCKINNEY
Americas Gard Authority


This is the last of a series OF
six articles discussing what
consider the rarest play in bridge,
the smother play or trump coup.
My suggestion is that you clip
these six smother play hands and
keep them. You will always find
them enjoyable to review.
South's six heart contract on to-
days hand was natural one, al
though as it happened, six spades
could have been made more easily
there being then only losing trump
.rick with North the declarer.
South won the opening lead with
the ace of clubs and led the queen
of hearts. West refused to cover and
East failed to follow Another heart
was won with the eight in dummy.
The king of spades was followed
with small spade, and again East
discarded, South winning with the
ace.
1t now looked bad for the con-
tract. Apparently a spade and one
heart or one diamond must be lost.
However, the declarer found a way
to make the smother play. He ruffed
his losing club with dummys nine
Of trumps. led a diamond to the
king, then back to the ace in dunn
my. The third round of diamonds
was ruffed, the queen of spades
cashed, and now dummy's last dia-
mond was led. East won with the
jack, South discarding his last spade.
Now East had to return a club,
which South ruffed, and West was
through. The smother play had
captured q very important trump
trick and the small slam contract
was fulfilled.

Today's diversion of almost all
steel to the making of planes, tanks
and guns, has made each piece of
metal kitchenware a precious pos
session. And householders must
learn every way possible to make
them last longer.
You've probably found that
porcelain enamelWare, though one
of the most satisfactory and dura-
Bile kinds of coking utensils,
quickly shows signs of abuse.
The reason for this is that its
enameling is a glass-like compo-
sition fused on steel. Therefore,
it must be treated as carefully as
stemware, or it will crack and
chip with careless, hasty use.

Mr.. Willkie has handed the COP
a revolutionary mandate and in
dications are hat the leaders
have not taken kindly to it. Most
of them have lived SO long with
the elephant as their symbol that
they themselves have become like
elephants. Unfortunately for MI.
Willkie and the American people,
elephant men never forget-and
never learn, or so it is indicated
by the silent treatment party lead
ers have accorded Wilkes char
ter.
If MI. Willkie is to succeed in
rescuing the Republican Party
from the slough of reaction, which
is itself, he must continue to talk
directly to the people, over the
fat heads of the Hoovers, Can
netts, Tafts and Vandenbergs.
These Rip Van Wrinkles, who bit
terly resent every forward step,
will mercilessly oppose him at the
forthcoming Republican national
convention.
Recognizing this, Mr.. Willkie is
soon expected to embark upon a
kind of one-man revivalist and
educational campaign, taking his
case directly to the party men,
bers. From this point forward,
Willkie very probably will ignore
party leadership altogether.
Such a determined show of in
dependence conceivably could in
spirit large numbers of rank-and-
file members to acclaim Willkie

cans believe this would Illustrate

WARkING!!

Due to the recent epidemic of workers, quitting their jobs, and
not being able to secure releases Statement of Availability, from
their employers or the United States Employment Service, thereby
causing them to lose unnecessary time from the war effort, and
causing them financial loss, we IF publishing in brief, the points
under the Dayton Area Sterilization Plan, on how to secure a
release If YOU r entitled to one.
1. You cannot transfer from essential war work to work of a
nom essential nature.
2. You can secure a release IF:
(a) You are discharged.
() If you are laid off for a period of seven days or more.
() If you are not employed at your highest (proven) skill.
() Compelling personal reasons.
(e) If you are employed at sub standard wages as estab-
listed by the War Labor Board.
We wish to advise those workers who are thinking Of quitting,
or transferring jobs, to first consult with their local union officials.
Under the recent regulations issued by the War ManpOwer Com
mission in Washington, by quitting an essential job, your draft
classification is changed, since you, after quitting, would not be
cIassed as a essential worker.
If you have just grounds for securing a Statement of Availability
this is the procedure to follow. Notify your employer (and we
advise you to have your committeeman presently, of your desire
days to answer. If you r refused, you may then appeal to the
does not see fit to issue a Statement of Availability, you can then
appeal to the local area War ManpOwer Commission Ii the local

you can appeal to the Regional Committee, and finally to the
