Homemade Furniture Polish

The simple mixture Of two parts
boiled linseed oil and one part
turpentine makes an excellent pol
ish for furniture, but wood ex-
perts agree that the mixture should
be used with plenty of elbow
grease for satisfactory results.
The oil feeds" the wood, and
the turpentine loosens dirt and
helps the oil penetrate the wood.
This polish removes the dull, foggy
appearance that furniture often

THE LAST laugh is really the
best laugh in the case of Kiss
and Tell" the comedy which re-
turned TO town last night, for il
is even funnier al the Lafayette
than il was earlier al the Cass.
This r. Hugh Herbert farce has
several cast requirements and with
one minor" exception, all are for
the better.
The minor" exception is the
little imp, from next door played
by Franklin Allen, who has some
kind of speech impediment cou-
pied with a nervous delivery which
completely throws away some OF
the best lines of the play.
At that, Kiss and Tell is the
best of the group of plays about
adolescent glamor girls and their
problem parents.
In this case the Junior miss" is
CorliSs Archer, a very attractive
young thing of the bobby-socks set
who just can't bear not being
considered an adult. She carries
things a little too far, however,
when she pretends 20 be an ex-
pectant mother. an event which is
far from blessed in the conSery-
alive Archer household.

Washington, ID. G. ULNS).-To help
discharged soldiers in returning To

The cards will be used i'm every case
where the records of officers and en-
listed men indicate that they left em-
ployment to enter military service
They will contain the name of the in

thority

SolveFood Problem
At Drdvo ShipYdrds

Pittsburgh, Pa. ULNS).-The Dravo
shipyards near here have solved the
problem of feeding in the wilderness,
according to the War Food Admins
tration. BY wilderness" is meant the
great yards sprawled along the banks
of the Ohio river, where landing ships
(tanks) are built under the sky and
floated 1000 miles down the Ohio and
Mississippi into the Gulf.
Representatives of 80 labor unions,
who looked over the bravo food serv-
ice not long ago, are urging food
services based on the DravO plan in
other plants and shipyards, the WA
reports.
Dravo has 3 large cafeterias, can-
teens and locker rooms where home
packed lunches can be eaten, says
WA. Eight women dieticians plan
and serve nutrious and attractive
meals.
Food wagons set forth from cen
tral kitchen. Some are conveyed to 3
cafeterias, loaded with salads, hot
vegetables and meat dishes. The larg-
est of the 3 cafeterias has 4 steam
tables serving 4 lines. Sixty workers
are served minute To speed the sery-
ice, only one entree is offered.
Food wagons also carry sandwiches,
soup, milk, cookies and fruit to the
canteens. Soup and milk from the can
teen supplement the lunches brought
from home The workers - many of
them women-eat out of doors and, i'll
bad weather, in the locker room.
Manpower for the meal service
comes from local housewives who are
related to the workers and are anxious
to do their share.

unfortunately, there are some mem

Readers of this magazine are aware
shat the present Congress is hostile to

Tanl1ers Play Vital Role
Consequently, the oil tankers of the
IT, S. Navy and the Merchant Marine
are being called upon for even greater
service, while their number is being
augmented by new vessels
Tanlers play role in modern war
which is far from secondary. They
supply fuel not only TO the first-line
fighting ships, but also to the assist
ing vessels and innumerable small
craft. Tankers carry fuel oil, lubrl-
cants and gasoline to distant bases for
use by planes, tanks, and other motor
vehicles
The L. S. Navy includes large and
small tankers that perform Il variety
of fueling duties, but more are needed.
Many of the oilers are conversion jobs
and these are being built in increasing
numbers Many gasoline tankers are
likewise conversion jobs. The up-to-
