1941, Boy Scouts were called into
service Immediately after the Jap
anese air raid. Those Hawaiian
Scouts we're alert and ready, as
Scouts the world over always are.
AS messengers. first aiders and COM
forters, they have been busy ever
since. And, OF course, the same can
be said of the Girl Scouts.
Yes, we are defenders of our

I have a little baby brother,
And I'd love to have another:
Cause he is so cute and sweet,
l love to roll him on the street.
With his eyes so bright and brown
He loves to coo and play and clown
He pulls your hair and pats your face
He certainly is a little case.
Now this is all that I shall say
But come to see him some bright
day!

Produce Colored Fire
By MABEL WORTH.

The open fire becomes a popular
place in winter, both for the family
and when friends drop in.
Colored fire is attractive. Have
you ever made joy logs? It's not
difficult. Here's how:
Roll three good-sized magazines
very tightly and tie at each end and
also in the middle. Soak for 10 days
in solution of 10 cups of rock salt
10 cups of bluestone and about ;
gallons of water, depending on the
size of the container.
Place as many logs" in the solu-
ton as can be covered with the
liquid. Allow to dry thoroughly
before using-usually about six
weeks.

Under direction of Miss Edythe
M. Turner, home demonstration
agent for the county, and Roscoe
N. Whip, assistant county agri-
cultural agent, National All Mo-
bilization Week was observed in
Montgomery County the past
week. The activities consisted
largely in endeavoring to interest
All Club members and others in
raising victory gardens and poul-
try, assisting scrap drives, and
conservation of foods, clothing,
etc. 1t was stated by Miss Tur-
ner that the Montgomery Coun-
ty All Council, the membership
of which comprises older All
Club boys and girls, will give the
mobilization idea attention at
meeting at the home of Mrs.
Catherine McCollum, Shady
Grove, Thursday night.
The Shady Grove All Club has
elected officers as follows: Kath-
ryn Bradshaw, president; Evelyn
Miles, vice-president; Elizabeth
Fighter, secretary; Donaline
Baker, treasurer. Under direction
Of their local leader, Miss Jackie
Gather, with whom they meet on
the second Saturday of each
month, they are now learning to
make simple breads-corn bread,
biscuits and potato biscuits.
The Washington Grove Club is
rather at a standstill at present
having lost their leaders during
the year. Some Of the older
girls, too, are at work, so this
club is considering joining Shady
Grove for the duration.

Next week-20th to 27th- is
National Save and Sew Week. We
can now picture our male read
ers saying "this will not interest
me" and preparing to turn the
page-O, yes, it will interest you!
When we reveal to you some of
the "sew and save" plans we
have heard, you will open your
eyes.
How to make Junior a coat
from one of his dad's-how to
turn a mans overcoat into one
of the new Chesterfelds for his
little wife-how to make a wom-
ans hundred dollar lin appear
ance) tailored suit from her hus-
bands suits-yes indeed they
have even worked out how, by de-
vious turnings, the trousers can
be made into skirt! So if you
miss one of your old favorites-
don't say you were not warned!
Now, here's tip for you men
.folks-one of the most attractive
of these transformed suits we
have seen is little black num-
Der made from a tuxedo most
any one of you would just as
leave have your dinner clothes
hanging on wife as to have them
hanging on a hook, with always
the threat hanging over you of
having to get into them for some
special occasion-forewarned, you
might steer her toward the tux.
After weeks Of observation we
have concluded that people-es-
pecially women-thoroughly enjoy
standing in line at the rationing
board in Rockville. Such visiting
as goes on-the hum of voices
on a busy day is almost deafen-
ing, and surprisingly enough they
are all in such a good humor-
they do not average a crouch a
week, according to Allison H.
Chaplin.
Inquiry has shown that more
than half of these people could
have stayed at home and trans
acted their business as expedi-
tiously. Blanks and information
to cover gas and tire wants can
be obtained at any local erageE
so mail in your applications for
additional CASTOR no longer will
B and c books be handed over
the counter-even if you go in to
the board your answer will come
by mail. Don't wait until the
last day to write for if you
have been in that line you know
how busy every worker is every
minute of the day.
Sunday afternoon we dropped
in at the Singing Convention
being held at Montgomery Church,
Clagettsville. In spite Of the
cold-and it was cold high up
there on PARIS Ridge overlook
ing the rest of Montgomery
County-there was scarcely a va
cant seat. Before gas rationing
there was often STANDING Room
Only" at these monthly gather
ings. Started years ago by the
Baptist church at Cedar Grove
the convention has been held in
Protestant churches all over the
county.
