STOVES WITH SEA-LEGS
A compact coal-burning stove Of
type originally made for yachts
has been tried and found good at
the Bureau of Standards, where it
is known as "Port-hole Pete" The
stoves may be considered for war
housing projects. However, expert
judges from the War Housing Ad-
ministration are dubious about the
small oven and the appearance Of
space limitation in contrast to the
fancy facadeS the American house.

had these stoves made of heavy,
high-cost materials, but they can
be made cheaply of light sheet
metals.

Washington, Dec. 81 The sky
is not the limit on meals you eat

where restaurant price control is in
effect, the restaurant must charge
you no more than its customary

prices. The middle west and north

Restaurant rationing is handled
by regional Offices of the Office of

there is no cover-all regulation.
Some sections limit holiday prices

her last anniversary going to a

DON'T BE TOO CRITICAL
Do you realize that she may feel
resentful toward you if you criti-

Do you stop yourself before you
have told her about the husband
of a friend of yours who had his
arm blown off in Sicily?
Do you remember always to ask
about her husband when you see
her on the street or at parties, and
do you really listen when she
starts to tell you news of him?
Do you realize that she probably
