method OF registration In various
parts OF the country will be left to
regional administrators.
The local administrators will be
allowed to decide what days during
the week of the freeze shall be set
aside for consumer registration In
communities.
There is . possibility that the
start Of the program may be held
up for few days because OF delays
in printing the forms on which
consumers must declare the amount
of canned goods. on hand on Feb

It is planned to ask all the news
papers of the country to print these
forms. Consumers will be asked to
cut them out of the papers, AL
them out at home and transmit
them to the OPA.
To get the declarations in the
hands of persons who do not get

Each consumer Is allowed to have
five cans Of the rationed foods on
hand. These will not have to be
included In the declaration. But
every can above five per person must

The ration board will tear out
one 8-point coupon for each item

THIS MAN, in desperation.
went to his neighbors and asked
them for help. That help was
cheerfully. sympathetically given
because in the heart of every
human being there is pity for the
less fortunate 1t would have
been the same at any time of the
year, not merely because it was
the Yuletide season. The people
he asked were only too happy to
help him.
COMPARE THIS CASE with
that of the Mexican ranch worker
of whom we heard. He has been
employed for two years on a
ranch in this vicinity. Without
doubt he has had opportunity to
work elsewhere at higher wages.
But he has preferred to remain
where he is, doing the best job of
which he is capable, not asking
for outlandish wages, content to
be working, dependable and help
full.
HIS EMPLOYER, of his own
free will, raised this ranch work
er's salary a dollar more per day,
not because he was afraid the
man would leave him, not because
it was Christmas, but because
this man had proved himself
fine hand and had shown he had
his employers interests at heart.
He has shown loyalty to both his
employer and his job, which he
has done in the best way he
knew how.
THERE YOU HAVE TWO MEN
at Christmas time when, if ever,
there should be happiness and joy
in our hearts. The one man can
not care for his family, for rea-
sons we don't know. The other
man, also a common laborer, not
only has managed to provide for
his family but without even ask
ing for it, is given Sc week
raise.
WE THINK THESE TWO CAS-
ES speak for themselves. We
sympathize with the man whose
family is in dire circumstances.
Yet we are puzzled why it is so.
With two in the family picking
cotton it seems there should be

money to provide the youngsters
with clothing, food to eat, and a
suitable place to live. Certainly.
there should be some sort of fa-
cility with which to provide
warmth for the family. We close
our little story with this thought
that our Mexican ranch worker
would somehow, in some way, see
to it that there was a stove of
one description or another to keep
his family warm. He would see to
it too that they were fed as well
as possible, clothed as best he
could clothe them. In this coun-
try where there is so much oppor-
tunity for those who would seek
it, none need go hungry, or cold
or without ample clothing.
