Memorial Day
Services Very
Impressive

The Memorial Day services were
solemn as the color
guard followed by the band, Ameri-
can Legion, Auxiliary, Cub Scouts.
Girl Scouts and Libby firemen, all
resplendent in their colorful uni
forms, led the parade from the mon
ument on Boulevard avenue to the
cemetery Tuesday morning.
Commander William Nelson ex-
pressed thankfulness for the. rain,
which had ceased in time for the
services, and the touch of freshness
il had brought out, making the Gem
etery beautiful. He then introduced
Rev. H. Hasskamp, who opened with
prayer. Reverend Hasskamp gave a
simple but eloquent talk on the sin
cerity of our honor of the heroes,
who have fallen in battle, in the
previous wars as well as the present
conflict He used as the foundation
of his address the idea Of their hav-
ing laid down to bleed, but again
taking up their arms after their
wounds had healed, that we might
have peace.
J The band, under the direction of
Bert Shalpon, very ably played the
Star SpanEled Banner.
The salute was fired by the firing
squad.
Bringing the services to a close,
taps were played by Harold Gompf,
with Al Nichols sounding the echo.
Although the attendance was
good, it was not as large as last
year, and indicated how many that
were present then are now in many
lands OF the world, giving their all.
Among the crowd there were SER
vicemen representing every branch
Of the service, several Of whom have
seen action, and who were thankful
they were fortunate enough to be
among those honoring our dead.

On Food
Situation

Although farm population of the
United States is four million less
than during the last war, American
farmers produced 47 per cent more
food in 1943 than in 1918, the Of
flee Of War Information said in re-.
porting need for four million vol
unteer farm workers until after
harvest this year. With the aid of
the War Food Administration and
the Office of Price Administration,
Owl reported on the current food
situation. Comparing this year with
last-apples, peaches, pears and
cherries will be more plentiful;
slightly less fluid milk and cream
will be. consumed; less chicken will
be available; eggs will continue to
be plentiful Other highlights-war-
time increases of income and food
have enabled millions Of Americans
to increase their diets; rationing
will be needed until the war is won;
current point-free meats will remain
reasonably plentiful, with some cuts
of better grades less plentiful; the
present point holiday on canned
vegetables is only temporary and on
some meats may be temporary; the
1884 citrus fruit production will
be 10 per cent higher than last
year; the last half of 1874 will show
less butter and lard, but more mar
garine, shortening and vegetable
oils than during the first half; sugar
supply is adequate, but no increase
in household allotments is in sight
this year. For nutritional reasons,
the report recommends home pro-
duction Of vitamin erich foods, such
as tomatoes, and consumption Of
milk, meat and enriched cereals as
sources of riboflavin and niacin.
