Boosts War Bonds
Thursday Niqht

Citizens of Pinal County See
This Is Your Infantry"
At Coolidge S t a d i u m.
Band from Mariana Air

for Show.
Here's Your Infantry" the Army
Ground Forces presentation of the
story of the Infantry with its mes
sage of Buy Bonds" packs a
dramatic appeal that is startling
because of its simplicity. It's only
showing to the people of Pinal
county will be Thursday night at
Coolidge High School stadium.
Like the Infantry itself, Here's
Your Infantry" is not glamorous.
1t is not a spectacle. At times it
is noisy with the thunderous sounds
of battle. At other times it is
quiet with a deathly stiffness of
impending, climactic action. Quick
flashes of combat dart here and
there through the demonstration
and exhibition. The final assault
on the Jap pillbox is carried out
with a concept of realism that is
more understandable than exact
imitation would be.
The field on which the assault
is carried out becomes an area in
the Pacific through the effective
ness of suggestion. The audience
is transported to the battlefront
and before its eyes the Infantry
men creep and crawl, tangle with
the crafty enemy. use their wea-
pons to deal out death.
Blank cartridges, tracers, dyna-
mite charges and smoke grenades
add to the concept of battle Under
the careful supervision of a demo-
litions expert they convince the
audience that the attack is real.
For the first time in this war,
Americans get close up look at
the troops that take and hold the
ground, the men without whom
victory would be impossible, the
men whose battlecry is "On to
Tokyo!"
So dramatic is the appeal of this
demonstration that war veterans
are amazed at its effectiveness.
They find those about them learn
ing about the Infantry for the first
time and the message of courage.
fortitude, skill and earnest endeav-
or presented by the Here's Your
Infantry" unit is carried on to a
real contribution to civilian under
standing of what combat means.
Mariana Army Air Base band will
furnish military music for this
army show, boosting the 7th War
Loan drive.
Admission is free and the public
is invited.

That Our Honored
Dead Shall Not
Have Died in Vain

ITO you from failing hands
We throw the torch;
Be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us
who die,
We shall not sleep, though
Poppies blow in Flanders
Fields"
Throughout the nation Wednes-
day was observed as day of poign-
ant remembra1ces-such a Memoir
ial day as could only be commemo-
rated when men and nations are
locked in death struggle to save
their cherished ideals, to protect
their homeland, to end unprovoked
aggression and carry the torch
of liberty to downtrodden peoples
to make a reality of freedom of
speech and press, freedom to wor-
ship God after the dictates of ones
own heart and conscience, freedom
from want, and freedom from fear" )"
at is for us, the living, rather,
to be here dedicated to the unfin-
ished task for which they gave the
last full measure of devotion"
Out of it all must come a Charter
of peace; the United Nations point
ing the way, under God, to the day
when reason and international JUS
tice shall replace international
anarchy-the law of the tooth and
the fang-when there shall be no
more wars. Or we must face the
fact that our honored dead shall
indeed have died in vain.

Saucepans Not
Used In Pressure
Canning Methods

Automatic pressure saucepans are
not designed for canning, and
should not be used for that pur-
pose, declares Emma DuBord, Home
Demonstration Agent. Several
Wayne County women have tried
pressure saucepans for this purpose,
but have had little success.
For one thing, it is not possible
to know the exact pressure so tim
ing is inaccurate. Another objec-
ton is the size which permits only
a small amount to be canned at one
time. Some women have attempted
to make pressure Gamers out of
very tightly covered water bath
Gamers.
The pressure thus obtained can
not be gagged correctly. 1t Is never
higher than a few pounds at the
most and will only succeed in burst
ing the vessel or popping the cover
off. Such an experiment Is hazard
GUS.
Even in the water bath the water
pressure must be kept even or liquid
will be drawn out of the jars. If
the jars are always covered with
at least two inches of water the
pressure will be even. 1t is some
times necessary to devise a lower
rack or use pint jars or the short
est quart jars. A thin rack for a
round water bath Gamer can be
made from an old pie or cake tin
hammered flat and pierced with a
spike.
