Maybe you have been mighty
busy housekeeper lately, and still
have felt that perhaps you could
do more to aid the war effort-if
you only knew how and had a
little time. Although it is fact
that the woman who is concen-
trating on providing her family
with proper nutritious food, and
who is bringing her children up
to be fine citizens, is performing
two of the most important jobs
in America today, there are many
VINO feel that this is not enough.
More power to them! They
are the kind of women that will
carry America through to victory.
And there IS something they
can do to further the war effort,
if they feel they must contribute
more. They can shop more care
fully than ever before, putting
away all savings into War stamps
and bonds. They can make old
things do, and new ones last.
They can share the warmth and
friendliness of their homes with
servicemen from nearby camps
for Sunday dinner. And, even
easier than any of those, they
can contribute to the pleasure
and happiness of soldiers, sailors,
merchant marine, coast guards
men and marines everywhere, by
contributing books to the 1943
Victory Book Campaign that will
start January 5, and last through
March S.
Sponsored jointly by the Amer
ican Library Association, the
, American Red Cross and the
United Service Organizations. the
aim Of the drive is to collect from
the American public as many
books-good books-as it is pos
sible to collect in the given period.
Attic" cleanouts are discouraged
the drives sponsors realizing
that there can be little of value
left in most attics after the
thorough combing they have en-
joyed during the various salvage
campaigns. And, too, the books
wanted are not of the dreary,
thrown away type. They want
nice books, amusing and infor-
NATIVE ones, books that have
been kept in readable condition,
and that have plenty of wear
left in them for the hard hand
ling they are bound to get.
The general idea seems to be
that If 1t is book that you find
is good enough to keep-then it's
q book that Is good enough to
give"
We don't mean first editions, or
your very real favorites, of course.
Book lovers the world over ap-
preciate how much certain books
can means to their owners. But
for each book that is Invaluable"
there are hundreds that can be
given away-without once resort
ing to the "trash" classification.
Don't give old algebras and dog
cared Victorian novels; don't give
the kiddie stories that your
youngsters have outgrown. Spare
