New Salvage
Program On

In an effort to expand the collec-
ton of salvage materials to aid the
prosecution of the war, Mr.. Rollin
Holton, director of civilian person.
mel branch, and Capt. Herbert
Brehmer, salvage officer, have in
augurated a new and complete
campaign.
Residents of the post have al
ready noticed the Olive-drab painted
boxes neatly lettered and fitted with
compartments for the collection of
salvage. There are 25 of these re-
ceptacleS distributed Throughout the
post, which has been divided into
eight zones. Zone No. is located
in West Apache Flats, No. in East
Apache Flats. Zone 3 is in the
Knoxville area, No. near the
power house, No. 6 in Bonnie Blink,
No. 6 in the trailer camp, No. on
Officers Row and No. 8 at the
WhitSide school.
Every Tuesday and Friday mate
rialS in the salvage boxes will be
picked up under the supervision Of
the salvage officer. The regular
garbage collection will not deal with
these materials.
Residents are urged to deposit
salvage in the proper compartment,
and to prepare each item according
to specifications. Waste paper must
be divided as magazines, newspaper
and cardboard, and each bundled
separately. Tin cans should have the
ends cut and the cans pressed flat.
Glass jars should have tops wher-
ever possible
Within the next few days each of
the eight zones will have repre-
sentative appointed to check on the
progress of the collection in their
areas Every civilian resident will
be called upon by the representative
in order to gain the maximum CO.
operation. They will also be charged
with checking on the proper policing
of grounds.
A committee delegated by the
local chapter of the National Fed
Grafton of Federal Employees will
assist in the development of the
campaign. They are: j. F. Dewitt, L.
L. Lovelace and Joseph LeFebvre.
With the arrival of spring, and
the usual spring cleaning, much
material should be, gathered in the
next weeks. ~

NEEDS CARE
Tips From Capt. Gonzales

Conservation of clothing is no
longer merely slogan, but neceS-
sity, according to Captain Lisandro
F. Gonzales, G & E classification
officer Requirements of worn out
articles are becoming increasingly
hard to obtain, and GIs who want to
look neat had better learn to take
proper care Of their clothing.
In the past; said Captain Con-
zales, there were men who would
indulge in little extra ripping and
tearing just to help an article of
clothing sbe accepted for turn-in.
Then they would blossom out with
a brand new item in its place. 1t
was wasteful practice, as the
clothing turned in was then beyond
repair and could only be used for
rags.
Repair 1t
Maintenance and repair are the
watch words now. Anyone can learn
the few simple rules for making the
most of their issue. First, Captain
Gonzales points out, is the small
repair A missing button, a slightly
frayed edge, tiny hole. Get out
that sewing kit, and fix it right
away. A stitch in time -
a. If it's something your sewing skill
won't take care of, turn it in for
repair quickly. 1t can be saved. and
will look as good as new. And you
won't look shabby. AS a matter of
fact, you had better not look
shabby
Captain Gonzales emphasizes that
it is the responsibility of command
ing officers to see that each man is
familiar with the rules of preventive
maintenance.
Tips on Washing
Here's an SOP. for avoiding that
old wash day blues
You have got to wash those duds
right to keep their shape, comfort
and wearing quality. Nothing hard
about it if you remember the tips,
but it will wash your clothes cleaner.
make them last longer and save a
lot of wear and tear on your back.
First, remember that wool fibers
shrink in hot water. They are dis
solved by the alkalies in strong soap.
A twisting movement in wringing
breaks those fibers. Use soapy luke
warm water and wiring 'em gently.
The best bet is to use a couple of
tubs, soak the soiled articles 10
minutes or more and rinse in the
| other tub.
Wash woolens by kneading and
squeezing in the lather of good soap.
Do this on the outside and inside.
Pay extra attention to armpits,
back, neck and hens of sleeves.
Rinse till all the soap is gone.
! Squeeze out the moisture in a couple
of changes of water, shake, stretch
into Shape and hang to dry the way
the garment is worn.
Wool socks take little extra
work. Shake them out good, bang
the feet against the edge of the
basin to remove loose dirt. Wash in
clean soapy water. lukeWarm or cold.
Wash inside and out. Treat as above.
COttOnS
For khakiS use a little different
method. First, shake them out good.
Turn the pockets out and shake or
brush them. Use hot water to wash.
Rub soap into the soiled parts, scrub
with strong brush, then put the
article back in the water. Knead
and squeeze, then rinse till all the
soap has disappeared. Give it
final rinse in cold water. Don't
wiring, just hang it to dry in the
sun or in a current of air.
