BANKS are institutions upon which

EEK opened another branch bank in

} see an organization of this type
ha: doesn't believe in standing still.
/ DO many businesses today reach
lpna kind Of semi-climax and just

The Waccamaw Banks do not
BIZ into this standstll group. They
BE always looking for more ways OF

bore which seems profitable to the
Establishment and at the same time
b Z service to some community.
TABOR City may some time have

HEADQUARTERS ALA SKAN DEPARTMENT. May IS, No


 DEPARTMENT, May IS, No body could taunt the American doughboy in World War II with the old bit of doggerel that started -"The Infan-tree, the Infan-tree
 With dirt behind their ears" because if the amount of S0ap used annually by our soldiers is to be taken as indicative of any, thing, the doughboys just didn't have any dirt behind their ears, or anywhere else.
 The War Department said today in press release:
 "More than 600 million pounds of soaps and other deterqentS per year were required to make the U. s. Army in World War IT the cleanest army the world has ever known.
 ''The Quartermaster Corps, which directed the development of new cleansers and the improve ment of the old ones, says the high standard of cleanliness was an important contribution also to making the CT the healthiest fighter
 Soap toilet, soft, hard, and seawater, was the imposing des- ignation given new all-purpoSe soap supplied to troops beginning in 1914. This new soap proved so effective that it was brought to peak procurement of 25 million pounds year. The troops used it for bathing, shaving, cleaning mess gear, hand laundry, and al- most every other kind of cleans ing.
 ''TWo-ounce bars included m he 10-in-one ration packages became premium items among overseas soldiers. The all-purpose soap was composed of approximately 25- percent synthetic detergents and from 10 to 30 percent coconut oil. It lathered freely in hard or sea water and at temperatures between near-freezing and boil ing It was of limited availability, however, because of the short SUD- ply of components. 'The standard yellow-bar laun- dry soap, known to the service as CT soap, was the most exten- sive used. Peak requirements for the yellow bar reached 425 mil lion pounds year."

 To this admirer Of freckles, they suggest energy, vitality, piquancy and happiness. You never think of freckles in connection with a tragic face.

 I hope. after this. that you'll march your gift Of freckleS to a mirror and thank Nature for one Of her most charming capriceS. Then. let's not have any more non- sense about wiping them out.
