During the war between the
states the Union soldiers had cap
tured three Confederates and were
holding them as prisoners in a small
stockade. One prisoner in particular
was always kidding the guards
about the licking the Yanks had
taken at Chickamauga, until they
could stand it no longer and re-
ported him to General Grant.
Grant told him he would have to
stop ribbing or he would either be

POOR OLD CHARLIE MccoFFUs

A Government named Charlie McCoffus
worked days in the field and nights in the office
Checking forms and vouchers and ration blanks, too
which picked all to bits by the Washington
For the boys in DC. with their doube-ensed Specs
their sallow compilations and frayed collar necks,
Care not for the time and the money they waste
If a carbon is missing, gallon misplaced,
They bounce back the paper with illconceaed jeerS,
to harass local OPA field ratoneers.
To get back to Charlie he struggled along,
til an ache in his head told him something wrong
He went to a medico Doctor" said he,
there's buzz in my bran what's the matter with me?
Well, the medico thumped, medicos do
and he tested his pulse, and his reflexeS, too.
And his heart and his throat and sounded each lung,
and Charlie said, "Ah and stuck out his tongue
Then the Doctor said, God what narrow escape,
But quick operation will put you in shape"
Your brains overworked like motor run down.
You're flirting with death every time you turn round
must take out your brain for complete overhauling
Meanwhile take time off from your OPA calling
So Charlie McCofus went under the knife
He struggled home brainless and kissed his wife
While old DR.. Loomis and two other
were putting his brain back in order again.
Well, the weeks rolled along and Charlie McCoffus
called for his brain at the medico's office
The doctor got worried gave Charlie ring,
Said. You'd better and get the damn thing
Thanks Doc, don't need it, said Charlie McCoffus
I'm being transferred to the Washington office
So Charlie now wears a frayed collar to work
he hides in the airs where the Bureaucrats lurk
His ration amendments bring anger and fear
to the heart of each hard-working field ratOneer.
Oh the pride and the JOY of the head OPA office
is brainless predaceous, young Charlie McCoffus.

Visiting Montana for the first time the representative
of geophyscal prospecting company in the office the
other day He went over maps reports production depths
in various field and obtained other information
Then he said in evident surprise:
why, Montana is just like Texas and Oklahoma Is
years You haven't had any drilling yet Just shallow
stuff"
He went to say great deal more but that enough
1t emphasized what this organization has stressed for
than two decades The time for investment now ahead of
full development And the best investment in opinion
still landowners royalties They carry perpetual rights and
they are not taxed while you hold them
Incidentally it is interesting to note that many
locations in Montana by major oil companies for DEEP
tests almost in the same locations those of shallow
conclusive wells drilled years ago.

Method Found for Usinq
Sea Wafer in Bread Makinu
Ey the Associated Press.

Es the Associated Press.
The War Department announced
yesterday that a formula has been
developed for substituting sea water
for fresh water and salt in making
bread.
Taking samples Of sea water from
the oceans off California, Virginia
Florida and Washington, the chem
lists strained them to remove algae,
seaweed and sand. The water then
was treated with calcium hypo-
chlorite to purify it. The technicians
used 81 parts of salt water instead
Of 60 parts of fresh water and two
parts Of salt.
The sea water bread showed only
a slight variation from bread made
according to the standard recipe in
texture, grain, flavor and crumb

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Jan. IA
ruling by Attorney General Guy E.
Williams that payment of poll taxes
for Arkansas servicemen by county
courts would enable them to vote In
the primaries as we'll as the general
election gave impetus today to a
move to solve the States soldier vote
problem by this method.
Mr.. Williams made the ruling on
recently unearthed 1923 act, pass
ed by the Arkansas Legislature after
the World War, authorizing county
quorum courts to appropriate funds
to pay the 81 poll tax.
Declaring the ruling was "immi-
nently correct" Gov. Homer w. Ad-
kins said it was clearly the intent
of the act to cover such a situation
as we now have"
Several quorum courts have met
since the act was unearthed last
week, but there has been no reported
appropriation for payment Of the
soldier poll tax.
