The Earbenders will play their weekly game of cards ct Washington Park Community House this evening at 8 o'clock.
 A mass meeting of Block Plan Workers, which is to be held at Crosby high school auditorium, Monday night, January 25, at 7:30 p. m. will have an OPA representa- tive to speak on the new point ra- tioning system. This is Q subject which should have the attention of every housewife, and even women who are not housewives, should know and understand what this system means in our daily living. It has to do with the war effort on the home front. It will help us ali to become adjusted to how, what and when to buy our foods, will explain the rationing system, which is be- coming more and more to be the main factor for us here at home.
 We hope that as many. women from Washington Hill as can find the time to attend this meeting will do so. Even if we are engaged in defense work in the factories, we still should know and understand the workings of this point system.
 If a representative from each fam- fly could attend the meeting. they could explain it to the rest Of the household, and also bring the infor- nation to their immediate neigh bors.
