Honored Orchestra,
Revered Leader
OF Boston Town

With the current season DR.. Serge
Koussevitzky, one Of the top three
conductors In the United States,
is in his 20th consecutive year as
leader of the Boston Symphony
to be heard each Saturday evening
at $3.50 over Station WMAL and
the Blue Network beginning Satur-
day.
Koussevitzky, the eleventh in the
line OF conductors who have headed
the Boston orchestra, and perhaps
the greatest Of them all, was. born
in 1874 in the Province of Tver in
Russia. As a boy he Travelled to
Moscow and was admitted to the
Philharmonic School and there be-
came a student of the double bass.
In a short time he had made himself
a remarkable virtuoso Of this un-
wieldly instrument and became rec
ognized not only as Russia's, but
Europe's leading player Of the
double bass.
The artist Koussevitzky could not
long have been satisfied with such
limited medium Of expression
He inevitably sought that most ex-
pressive Of instruments-the full
symphony orchestra. With his own
orchestra ne gave memorable con-
certs in Moscow and st. Petersburg
Chartering steamer, he took his
musicians the length of the Volga
through his vast country, bringing
to the musically starved people OF
innumerable provincial towns their
first symphony concert. After the
Revolution, Koussevitzky conducted
for while under government SUBJ
sidy, but, fleeing restriction, again
assembled an orchestra of his own
in Paris and gave his famous Con-
certs KoussevitZky." Here, and by
guest performances in London and
in other cities, Western Europe
came under the spell of this mag
netic and forceful leader.
1t was in 1924 that Koussevitzky
came to America and took his place
at the head of the Boston Sym.
phony. In the years which have
followed, he has touched new
heights Of his art and brought the
orchestra to a new and SURPRISING
Importance. The famed precision
of the ensemble and its tonal beau
ty, excel the most glorious days OF
its illustrious past.
One Of the hardest working OF
orchestras, the Boston Symphony
plays three separate series of con-
certs-the regular winter season
the pops concerts of the early
sprlrs and summer and the es-
planade concerts. in addition to its
tours to the principal cities in the
East. In the last year the Boston
symphony played to concert hall
audiences totaling nearly 900, ,00C
people, and it is estimated that its
air audience numbers several mil
lion each week.

How To Use Your
New Ration Book

THE OLD RATION BOOK. No. 1.
will still be used for Sugar and
Coffee.
The Government has set the day
when this rationing will start On
or after that day, take your War
Ration Book Two with you when
you go to buy any kind of Canned
or Bottled Fruits, Vegetables. Soups
and Juices. Frozen Fruits and veg
etables, Dried Fruits.
Before you buy. find out how
many points to give for the kind
of processed foods you want Prices
do not set the points The points
will not change just because the
prices do.
When you buy, take the right
amount of blue stamps out of the
book. Do this in front of your
grocer or delivery man and hand
them to him. Every rationed pro-
cessed food will take points as we'll
as money.
Do not use more stamps than
you need to make up the right
amount. For example, if the food
you buy calls for 10 points it is
better to tear out an point and a

Registrars
Given Choice of
Army or Navy

Colonel L. W. Long, state direct
or of selectiye service, stated that
most satisfactory arrangement
has been effected for the Undue
ton of selectees onto both land and
naval forces at the recruiting and
induction station, Camp Shelby,
Mississippi.
In reviewing the process today,
it was found that complete har-
mony and thorough establishment
of the process of assigning select
ees to either the land or naval
forces has been made. This pro-
cess began on February 1st in
Mississippi and for the third day
of its operations, an unusually
well organized plan has been es
tablished.
Every selectee is carefully in
terviewed and given an opportu-
nifty to express his preference for
either land or naval forces. Any
registrant who expresses his pre-
ference for naval forces is given
every consideration for placement
in either the coast guard, marine
corps, or navy.
The ALLEGATION of manpower to
the armed forces by the selective
service system, of course, is a
process which has been carried
out since October 1910. The allo-
cation Of selected manpower to
the various branches of the armed
forces is new process now three
days old and is completely solv-
ing the problem. All men above
the age of thirty seven and those
seventeen years Of age are not
subject to selection at this time,
but if they are especially quail
fled, they may be enlisted at eth
er the army, navy, or marine
corps recruiting stations located
throughout the state.
This present plan does not af-
feet the recruitment of women for
the various branches of land and
naval services which are now
available to them and an intensive
drive is being made for this re-
cruiting of women.
Colonel Long stated that he felt
that this present plan was work
ing most satisfactorilyand would
solve the problem of securing adj
equate manpower for both land
and naval forces.

unteered for this patriotic service

value especially to persons who
this year will file an income tax
return for the first time, and are

quirements.
Places and dates for the clinics
were announced by Mr.. John c.
Bate, president of the board of

Ordinance Saws
Chickens Must
Be Confined

Since there will be several thou
sand Victory Gardens in Jackson
this year it behooves all chicken
owners to take special precautions
to keep their chickens confined
because chickens and gardens do
not go together.
Although chickens are permitted
to be kept in the city it is the
owners duty to keep them at home
since city ordinances provide that
1T shall be unlawful for any own
er of chickens to permit such
chickens to depredate upon the
property of others" Persons vio-
lating this ordinance are subject
to arrest and fine the same as for
violating other city ordinances.
The ordinance also provides that
persons catching chickens upon
their property may confine such
chickens and keep them for three
days for the owner to reclaim
them. The owner shall pay for
the expense of continuing and feed
ing such chickens and for the dam
age done, otherwise the person
combining the chickens may dis
pose of them in such a way as to
compensate them for the expense
and damages sustained.

War Ration Book No. To Be Issued February 22>26
Why The Ration
On Canned Foods

Every week we are sending ship
loads of canned goods to feed our
fighting men and our fighting al
lies in Africa, Britain and the Paci-
fic Islands. We must see that they
get all the food they need. We at
home will share all that is left.
Point Rationing will be used to
guarantee you and everyone a fair
share of Americas supply of can
ned and processed fruits and veg
etables, soups and juices.
Hoau They Are Rationed
/. Every eligible man, woman,
and child and baby in the United
States is being given War Ration
Book Two. (This book will not be
used for sugar or coffee)
2. The Blue stamps are for any
kind of Canned or Bottled Fruits
and Vegetables Canned or Bottled
Juices and Soups, Frozen Fruits
and Vegetables, Dried Fruits. (The
red stamps will be used later for
meat)
3. The stamps in this book are
POINT stamps The Number on
each shows you how many POINTS
that stamp is worth.
4. The Letters show you WHEN
to use the stamps The year will be
divided into rationing periods. You
can use all BLUE stamps marked
A, B, and c in the first rationing
period. A, B, and G stamps cannot
be used after the first rationing
period ends
S. You must use the BLUE stamps
when you buy ANY KIND of ra-
toned processed foods. See the Of
fetal list, showing every kind of
rationed processed food, at your
grocers. Different kinds of these
foods will take different numbers
of points. For example, a can of
beans may take a different number
of points from a can of peas.
6. OF course the more of any,
thing you buy the more points it
will take. For example, large can
of peas takes more points than a
small can
Z. The government will set the
points for each kind ano size ard
send out an Official Table of Point
Values which your grocer must put
up where you can see it.
8. The number of points for each
kind of processed food will be THE
SAME in ALL STORES and in all
parts of the country.

But the part which attracted the
writer was the speech made by

this city. A real cultured young
matron, Mrs. Kelly told this crowd
that the day would come when the
white and black man would walk
together without race, creed or

ed himself through educational ad-
vantages.
Also on the platform were Mrs.
M. M. Hubert, Mistress of Cere-
monies, Mrs. H. L. Denton, who
read passages from the scripture,
Miss Clairee Collins, Mrs. M. L.

not to defeat the purpose by cash
ing these bonds and stamps be-
fore maturity.
