Coolidge Women Are
Asked To Cooperate
ODT For Victory

Coolidge women have been asked
by their government many times,
and in many ways, to flight waste"
on the home front. Homemakers
of the nation have been asked to
save tin cans, kitchen fats, waste
paper, food, fuel and many other
vital civilian services and commodi-
ties which they have done
with stimulating success. The Of
flee of Defense Transportation is
now appealing to American women
to fight waste" of transportation
to stay home and discover the
nearby sources of amusement and
entertainment that the "old home
town" and vicinity has to offer
during the summer vacation.
The fact that transportation is
necessary to our concerted war eff
fort is illustrated by the words OF
United States Army Major General
C. P Gross, chief of transporta-
ton, "Our railroads are essential
to our nations capacity OF make
war. They must be sustained by
the American people with the full
appreciation that they are vital to
us and must always be prepared to
go into action to make effective the
might of the United States"
The Coolidge examiner., 1944-08-11
County Agent
Henness Warns Of
Farm Home Fires

A record number of deaths from
farm home fires during summer
months in scattered areas of Ari-
zona is indicated from reports just
received by X. X. Henness, Pinal
County agricultural agent of the
Agricultural Extension Service,
University of Arizona. Two Green
lee County children, killed by fire
believed to have started from a
kerosene refrigerator, brought the
number of farm fire deaths to nine
for June and July.
"If this most recent fire fatality
twas caused by the kerosene refrig-
orator." said Mr.. Henness, then
we should caution all owners of
such units to check them. Make
sure that the joints do not leak gas
or kerosene and that everything
works properly. Do not use gaso-
line in kerosene stoves or refrig-
erators-and it is wise to keep such
units out of sleeping rooms"
The Coolidge examiner., 1944-08-11

Xmas Mailing Dates
Given By Coolidge
Postmaster Boone

Emphasizing the Importance OF
mailing dates, ]. B. Boone, Coolidge
postmaster, cautioned that no gifts
for military personnel overseas may
be mailed before September 10 or
after October Is unless written re-
ouest from the intended receiver Is
presented. Wartime shipping de-
mands make early and restricted
dates necessary.
Mr.. Boone asked that this year
greater pains be taken in packag1ng
and addressing. Although a shoe
box is the proper size it is not a
reliable container, he pointed out.
If you want to be sure your gift
arrives in good condition, double
faced corrugated fiberboard is sug-
gested.
Parcels must not exceed five
pounds, must not be more than 15
inches long or 36 inches in length
and girth combined and should be
plainly marked Christmas Parcel
to receive special attention. Per-
ishable goods, intoxicants, inflam-
mable materials, poisons and all
things that may damage other mail
are prohibited.

Home From Two
Years Service
Around World

The world is growing smaller to
folks on Main Street, and doing it
fast! Home town boys, young,
clear-eyed, and with a lifetime of
experience crowded into the space
of swift, danger -fraught months
are returning to relate the incred-
ible things they have seen and lived
through TO those who stay at home.
James Perkins, S 1/C, who ar
rived home Monday on 30-day leave
after serving two years on a de-
stroyer that made its swift way
throughout the oceans of the world
makes the globe on which we live
shrink to dimensions of startling
smallness by his easy familiarity
with foreign places that seem, to
most of US, as strange and distant
as the things we read about in
Arabian Nights. James is the son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Grouse E. Perkins
who make their home in Coolidge.
His father is the pastor of Black
water Indian Church and James,
who was born in Sells, Arizona, 81
years ago, has lived in Coolidge
most of his life. He was a sOphO
more in Coolidge High School when
he enlisted in the navy in 1912, and
after four months at boot camp was
assigned to destroyer and sent on
convoy duty in the Atlantic and
Mediterranean area.
Eight times he has crossed to
Africa and it was midway between
the Azores and Gibraltar that he
ran into his first trouble-submar-
ines. He is a gun pointer, but
man helps wherever he is needed
most in time of battle and in the
melee that followed James broke
his arm while heaving heavy shells
to load the guns. He was in a
naval hospital for a time but when
his arm healed he joined his crew
and was off to strange and distant
ports.
The destroyer, which carries $50
men, swung down toward the West
Indies, crossed the Caribbean Sea

Farmers Warned
Cotton Insects
Increasing Here

1t was reported today by K. X.
Henness, county agricultural agent,
that records in % selected fields OF
Pinal County, in which insect
counts have been made each week
for the past four weeks, indicate
a gradual increase in harmful In
sects. Fifteen of the % sample
fields showed an increase last week
over the number counted the week
before.
busting with sulphur-Paris green
(921h per cent sulphur-7h per cent
Paris green) is recommended when
the total count reaches 8 to the
hundred sweeps of the net. While
only four of the sample fields
showed counts of eight or more,
many others are approaching that
number, and should be watched
closely.
Since it is difficult to bring high
insects down by busting, Henness
emphasized that dusting should I'M
mediately be done when the 1nsect
count reaches eight to the hundred
sweepings. If the insects are kept
below this number little loss Will
occur.
