Give me an easy chair to sit
and gas,
A grandfathers clock to see the
minutes pass,
A mornings paper to read all
the news,
A quart of good liquor of my
favorite booze,
My pipe in my mouth, my feet
on the table,
My shoes and my clothes all
have a union label.
I'll take life easy as long as
/ can,
November the 7th I'll help elect
good man,
With Roosevelt in and Dewey
out,
That's what I've always been
preaching about,
A good man for labor, not me
for corporation,
You'll always be able to take
two weeks vacation.

UP OR CLOSE UP

II has not been the policy of the Holmes County Health De-
partment to publish the names OF proprletors OF puohc eatng
places who have been brought before the courts ana nned ior
rwilfnl and repeated violations of sanitary regulations. But due
tn the laxity and wnful indifference of some OF the ones respon-
sible for taking the necessary and required precautions to safe
ouard the innocent public, including our soldier boys, from the
danger of contracting diseases that can be transmitted by eating
and drinking at unsafe places, we may see fit to change our policy
IN this regard and warn the public through the press. One sucn
eating place in this county has already been closed during TINS
month and others will be closed unless drastic changes in equip
ment and methods are made.
OF course we all realize that there is a shortage of labor on
account of the war, but that fact is not sufficient grounds for
some of the most fragrant violations that have been noted. Most
of the eating establishments where the most prominent violations
are in evidence during this emergency that we are now gong
through are the same places that gave the same trouble before
the emergency existed, but at that time a different alibi was USED.
It is true that we have a shortage of labor. We also have q snort
spread even more easily now, because OF the going and coming
of soldiers from all parts of the world. Trench mouth, dysentery'
tvphoid fever, tuberculosis and many other diseases can be con-
tracted and spread by people eating and drinking at places tnat
are not operated in a clean, sanitary manner. Sometimes the
most attractive and the most up-to-date looking eatmg places i
more dangerous than some of the less attractive places, because
of the careless manner in which utensils are sterllzed ana because
of other unsafe methods that are used, out WHICH II hot ho'Ne-
able to the public.
AEidavits have been made against many of the vlolators ana
resulted in the conviction of every person tried, but public sentl-
ment and the pubic's cooperation will DO much more &c prn s
about cleaner and safer public eating places than anything else
can do.
This letter is intended to be a warning not only to the 1000
handling establishments but also to the people who patrOnNe
such places, and it is hoped that q better understanding am ss
the foodhandling establishments, the consuming public, and the
ones whose duty it is to enforce the sanitary regulations VIII
result in improved conditions and in better HEALTH Tor all.

The Germans cannot hope to
hold Eastern and Southern Ro-
mania, but may put up a terrific
struggle to keep the Russians out
of the Ploesti oil fields as long as
possible. Hitler needs to squeeze
every drop of oil out of Ploesti
that he can. 1t is his only good
source of high-grade lubricating
oil. After it's gone he will have
to fall back mainly on his reserve
supply. This, however, is said to
be large.
Unfortunately for the Nszis,
Romania east of the Transyl-
vanian Alps is not easy to defend.
1t is marked by broad valleys,
down which run the railroad
tracks converging on Ploesti and
Bucharest, the capital.
The indicated defense strategy
is to hold the railroad running
along the west bank of the Siretul
River and the line running from
Galati to Buzau, since both of
these run directly to the heart of
the oil fields.
Galati shapes up as the hub
Of a defense based on the Siretul
and Danube Rivers. The Siretul
would form the German left
flank. The Germans could base
series of fall-back lines on the
Siretul and its principal tribu-
taries.
