Appetite Appeal

The pear adds minerals, espe-
cially alkaline ones; it provides
bulk; il dilutes the calorlc value
of an otherwise too concentrated
diet.
But why do we speak of pears
in the cold month OF November
Because there is a winter variety
OF this fruit on the market from
September through February.
No out of season fruit, these
but one rich in flavor and ready

Hunters TO
Get Shells

COLUMBUS, Sept. 8.--Division
of Conservation authorities have
received word from the U. S. Fish
and Wildlife Service calling their
attention to the announcement of
the War Production Board recently
that it had approved the release of
81 and one-quarter million shotgun
shells and IL million rounds Of cen
ter fire ammunition, as we'll as
yet undetermined quantity of %
caliber cartridges.
Because Of Ohio's position in the
number of hunting licenses issued,
it was expected that this states
share of the ammunition would be
among the top figures for the
country.
The Outdoor Writer of America
and other organizations, as we'll as
state conservation departments had
joined with the U. S. Fish and
Wildlife Service in a fact finding
survey, which resulted in the urg-
ing of the WPB to allow some ad-
ditional ammunition to civilians to
permit the taking of the annual
CROP of surplus game, keep preda-
tory animals in check and protect
farmers from game depredations to
their crops.

Wardens Report
Many Squirrels

CLUMBUS, Sept. Il. - Game
wardens and district conservation
officers have reported good stock
of squirrels for this years squir-
rel hunting season, according TO
advice given out by the Ohio Di-
vision Of Conservation and Natural
Resources.
Indications are that ninrods are
in for some good hunting when the
season opens in the northern por-
tion of the state on September %,
and in the remainder Of the state
September Is.
Many field men Of the division re-
port that there are many squirrels
and plenty Of nuts. In some Of the
northern sections where squirrels
have not been so numerous and a
shorter season has been in effect
for the past two years, there is
marked increase in the squirrel
crop; but still not sufficient te
warrant a longer season this year

contract, it will be signed by both

Here are a few "Jots and Dots"
from the pen of your secret re-
porter of the Inverter Department.
Who is wearing the pants in Jean
Toth's home, now that she has
started wearing dresses?
What's this we hear about Otto
whistling to a certain B. P. that
winds armatures? Is it a serenade,
Otto?
If Alva Kirby could only keep
away from those parks-what an
insulator she would be,
1t is delight to see Helen Krum
wind armatures since she returned
from her honeymoon. Is she a
whiz!
Ruby B has suggested that esca-
lators be installed in place of the
stairsteps. We appoint you as a
committee of one, Ruby, so do your
best.
Did you know that Napoleon is
working with us? Don't misunder-
stand. He is Charles Long, whose
home is in Napoleon, Ohio. He
gauges armateurs in the Inverter.
Thanks to Ken Joy and everyone
that assisted him, for installing the
recording system in the factory.
Now we are really able to relax
and enjoy our lunch hour with the
variety of music offered US. Thanks
again, Ken, it's a grand idea!
Frank Mroz is wondering if he
has as many friends as he thought
he had. 1t seems he walked four
miles to work in the rain the other
morning and several fellow work
ers passed him by. Why didn't you
use your thumb, Frank?
Two wolves from the machine
shop have put in their bid for Joe
Mroz's date book while he is in
Buffalo. Too bad, boys, but Joe
keeps his addresses strictly on the
mental basis.
1t sounds like Verlyn and Helen
had very good time on their re-
cent trip to Detroit. You really
celebrated, didn't you, girls?
Do you know it is impolite to 60
to sleep while you have guests,
Sid? 1t makes us wonder if it was
natural sleep? Better skip that last
one next time, Sid!
Brother Schwind has become
quite union minded recently. He
has offered several ideas to the
committee, The boys and girls will
keep you in mind next election,
Vince.
Judging by John (Green) Zelin-
skis physique, he should be able
to do the work of several men.
Maybe that solves the employment
problem. You will find this hand
some (?) man in the machine shop.

The Four

By Thornton c. Shaw

oy IuOi HtOH Y. SndW
Dc you know what God has prom
ised you
Be you Protestant, Catholic or a
Jew?
He's promised -Four Freedoms"
and even more
When you answer his knock at
your door.
For behold! The wonders God
gave to man
An earth on which to build His
plan,
With everything contained therein
To build an engine or a pin.
A beautiful spot to build a home,
With hills and dales where man
can roam.
Fine rivers, broad acres, noun
tains and trees,
Where man could live in peace and
ease.
Man was told to love his neighbor,
To live in the sweat of his own
labor,
Teaching all must have a part to
bear
In building a brotherhood in which
all would share.
This dream He's planted in the
soul of man
To agitate him to complete the
plan.
He planted it in every nation and
in every creed
For all mankind to take heed.
But few it seems can grasp it all,
AS nations rise, only to fall,
Yet through mans mind there per-
colates a plan,
Seeking to express "The Brother
hood of Man"
This inheritance to man has been
consigned.
Seek We, brother, and ye shall find.

1t appears, however, that Spyros
Skouras, president Of 20th-Fox,
some time ago discussed the Rick
enbacker film with AFL President
William Green and CIO President
Philip Murray, and that they ar
rived at certain conclusions about
it."
Wendell Willkie is authority for
this. He reports it in letter to
President A. f. Whitney of the
Brotherhood Of Railroad Trainmen
(unaffiliated, who had protested to
Willkie as chairman Of the film
company's board against the plan
to golrify Rickenbacker. Whitney
had pointed out that Rickenbacker
has exploited his position as ma
tlonal hero E. to smear the Amer
ican organized labor movement"
Yep! They're Going to
Show Both Sides
Willkie did not indicate what the
certain conclusions" were. Labor's
rank and file will want to know. If
the conclusions are that the Rick
enbacker film can be winked at be-
cause Of something 20th-Fox plans
to labor's advantage, working men
and women will want to know what
to look for.
On 20th-Fox's schedule for some
future time is what Hollywood re-
fers to as its capital and labor
picture" and which the studio may
call Home Of the Brave. It will be
produced by Daryl Zanuck, who
informs newspaper men that be
discussed the film with Philip Muir
ray.
The studios press releases say the
film will be non-partisan," that it
will lustrate the strength and the
weaknesses on both sides Of the
highly controversial fence" Both
sides meaning capital and labor.

heels on both Sides"

Our sympathy goes to Anthony
Antkowiak, whose mother passed
away; to Harry Furry, who lost a
brother, and to Frank Hassel-
schwert, who also recently lost
brother. "They are not among us
but they are present in our
thoughts"
Louis Cayia was able to salvage
some happiness out of these Her
sheyistic days. He was able to ar
range his vacation to coincid with
his son Toms furlough.
Ish Taylor recently wrote to his
son, Charles, who is now stationed
somewhere in England, instructing
him to seek traces of the Taylor
estate near Liverpool. Strictly Il
joke, wouldn't it give you a feeling
of pride if "Chuck" did find rela-
tives? I'm going to bug around if
l ever get to Ireland. (I'd probably
get swatted.)
There is very little doubt but
that frankie Regan, in the Sea-
Bees, is now on Munda.
Now the "clunkers" attain dive
bomber speed before they dunk.
The short boys have to walk the
plank before into the drink they
go".
The stigma of something or
other is attached to some of the
boys who haven't taken their vaca-
tions. You are not indispensable,
we can get along without you for
week. No place to go? Help your
wife with the canning, tend your
youngsters, wet a line in the old
Maumee OF just take tall glass
to the porch swing.
Is it time to retire the watch dog
OF the foundry? He just can't |
adapt his speed to the wheels of
progress. We all get streaks of |
stubhornness and meanness, but |
this case seems to be nonstop.

of the Local when we
voted for delegates. Heinz Sieve
says thanks for now and states
that our Unit will benefit in many
ways.

Standard League, which consists Of
eight teams with averages below

of teams to roll in this lower score

You know Ned Sparks. The fun
niest man in motion pictures. The
dead-pan comedian who never
smiles. Of course. you do. Every
body knows Ned.
Well, Ned Sparks can't get job
in Hollywood. The funniest man
in pictures and Ned has not work
ed in front of camera for year
Casting directors and producers
and executives say, why of course.
Sure. Ned Sparks-funniest man in
pictures" Then they start laugh
ing over some scene they remem-
per. Such as Ned reciting Peter
Rabbit stories to group of kids in
6ing Crosbv's picture, THE Star
M'ker"
They send his agent away with an
optimistic, Wen call you just as
soon as osmething comes up. Ned
Sparks? Sure. A very funny man.
. And that ends it. Nothing ever
happens. No one ever calls. This
has been going on for a year.

OF COMEDY


Sure, we know the public gets
tired of seeing the same faces on
the screen. But we're willing to bet
ration book that you're not tired
of seeing Ned Sparks. How can
anyone be tired of an actor they
haven't seen on the screen for a
year? So that can't be the reason
Ned isn't working.
Besides, we think Ned is the type
of comedian the public never tires
Of. He never asked to be starred
in a picture. Has never gone tenn
peramental, he says. He's the type
of comedian who runs through a
picture punctuating the story with
laughs. "A laugh horse is the
way he describes himself.
There's no argument, either, about
Ned knowing comedy. During film
ing of the picture, Imitation of
Life in which he played Claudette
Colberts manager, Director John
Stahl was having trouble with a
long, seven-minute scene Ned ask
ed if he could rewrite it. Stahl said
he could try. Ned reWrote the
scene. Terrific" said Stahl. You're
a master of comedy"
Sparks has been writing his own
dialog ever since. Many a film
script has carried the notation,
Ned Sparks writes something
FUNNY"
