in oil organized forest fire pro-
lection districts Of Ohio must Sc
cure burning permits from their
local forest fire Wardens before
kindling outdoor fires during
the months Of March, April and
May. This is mandatory under
Ohio law
Mr.. Alderman states that the
light snowfall this winter in
Noble county and surrounding
areas may contribute to an early
and severe fire hazard to forests
and grass lands in this section Of
Ohio.
Fire permits can be secured
from any local forest fire war
den without cost. Burning with
out Il permit, or failure to fol-

are printed on each permit, con
stitutcs 4 violation of the law.
The greatest factor in rcduc-

occur in Ohio each year, says

The American Legion
Auxiliary Speukes
By a Longtime Active Member

10y IA 4SA
You may have wondered why
I'm a member of the American
Legion Auxiliary. / wonder why
every woman who is eligible is
not a member.
There are many reasons why /
am an Auxiliary member. / can
only mention a few.
1t is a great American privilege
to be a member of the Auxiliary.
A privilege which cannot be had
for the asking, o. on invitation,
nor can it be bought with mon
ey. It is conferred upon you by
the honorable service of your ia
Their, brother, husband or son in
the armed forces of the United
States during one of the World
! Wars, April 6, November IL,
1918, or December z, 1941, to
September 2, 1945.
My husband gave part of his
young active life in the horrors
of war to save my country, that /
! may have the privilege Of being
a member of the Auxiliary.
Do you realize that had it not
been for the service men who
make up the American Legion,
we would have no free America
today. We would have no wom-
ems clubs of any kind, no free
churches, no free schools, no free
press, in fact nothing of our great
American way of life.
The American Legion Auxiliary
has a greater service program than
any other woman's organization
jim America, not counting the
church, of course. In fact, l will
go SO far as to say that the SER
vice program of the American
Legion Auxiliary is almost as
great as that of all organizations
combined.
Here are the five major points
in the program:
/. Service to war veterans and
their families.
2. Welfare of children of vet
Grams.
3. Projects to help make the
community a better place in
which to live.

gent that leaves wool socks and
sweaters soft and clean may be a
disappointment when you use 1t
for cottons.
Both soaps and synthetic deter
gents today are of two main types
the built and the unbuilt.
Unbuilt soaps are generally
best for delicate fabrics. They are
almost pure soap with a little
moisture and common salt mixed
in. They are best in soft water.
Built soaps are soaps built up
with alkaline salts, like borax or
washing soda, to aid the cleaning
action and help soften water.
They are for badly soiled cottons
and are usually advertised for
general laundering.

To most of us soap is divided
into two kinds - laundry soap
and toilet or bath soap. Today,
however, we need to know more
than that about the laundry soap
we use. Manufacturers are max
ing different kinds for different
needs.
AS a guide in buying, read what
the wrapper or package says
about the product. Is it recon-
mended for fine washing or gene
raj laundering?
The milk soap for fine fabrics
and which is easy on the hands

as general purpose" laundry
soap. The product that keeps
shirts and sheets white may fade
colored clothes and shrink or har-
den woods and silks. Soap that
washes well in soft water may do
a poor job in hard water. A deter

WINTER FLOWERS

For Christmas blooms you
would have had to plant Narcissi
bulbs or bulb dishes in mid-Octo-
Der. But it isn't too late to put
bulbs out for after-C Christmas
blooms. The recommended varie-
tsie are Paper White, Pure White,
Frangrant, Soleile dor and Gold
en- Yellow. Put moist rocks, peb-
bles or bulb fiber in the bowls.
Keep moist by adding water as
needed. Put the bow in a dark
closet for two weeks until growth
starts. then move to more light.
You may set the bowl in a cool
window. If you want second or
third paintings, make them ten
days apart throughout November.

a. Support of the American
Legion's national security pro-
gram to give the United States
greater protection from war.
5. Americanism work to main
tain the ideals and principles of
free government in America.
Have you forgotten those SER
vicemen in the hospitals all over
America, several hundred thous-
and of them? Well, they are there
and most of them are there as a
result of their service in the wars
that saved your home and mine.
Last year the Auxiliary spent
over SIS, 1000, 900 to assist 100, 100
children of veterans.
Do you know about the Christ
mas gift shops for hospitalized
veterans? The Auxiliary operat-
ed 1856 gift shops last Christmas,
three of which we're in Mississip-
pi.
I am sure you know about the
Memorial Poppy, don't you? The
only handmade poppy sold in
America. They r made by the
men in our mental hospitals. The
Auxiliary bought more than
q, 900, 900 peoples from the vet
Grams in 1913, for which the vet
Grams themselves received over
$400, 100000 The peoples were re-
sold to the public by the Auxil-
larry and every cent of the money
spent for rehabilitation and child
welfare.
We are very much concerned
about Americanism and good
citizenship. Everyone who joins
the Auxiliary is casting a strong
vote against communism in AM
erica. Communism is the number
one enemy of our American way
Of life, and the American Legion
and its Auxiliary are recognized
as the number one enemies of
communism in America.

of the Auxiliary, Girl State, Girl

He likes his grits with ham and

Enriched corn meal and grits
can mean healthier Mississippians.
1t adds five essential vitamins
and minerals to the diet. Thiamine
is needed for normal functioning
of nerves. Riboflavin helps keep
eht eyes, mouth and skin healthy.
Miacin helps prevent pellagra.
Iron helps build red blood. Cal
cium helps build strong bones and
sound teeth.
The underground corn meal
enrichment campaign is already
well underway in counties in each
Extension district Calhoun,
Leake, Smith, and Walthall. From
these counties the program will
spread over the state as rapidly
as possible.
The campaign is Extension Ser
vice directed and has the coopera-
ton of doctors, nutritionists, the
State Board of Health and other
agencies and groups interested in
healthier Mississippians.
Local grist mill operators will
add the enrichment mixture al
a cost of about four cents pei
hundred pounds. The enrichment
! corn meal will look, taste and
cook Just like other corn meal
Consumers will know the corr
meal has been enriched by the
label on the bag.

He explained that when trans

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Oct. 28.-
Bonanza or bust?
All Alaska was wondering today
what actually is going on at Fish
wheel on the Yukon River. where
the goth century 49ers are heating
up in subzero temperatures over
whether they've got something or
not.
Fishwheel is the wide spot in the
Yukon River. a mile from the
Arctic Circle and 165 miles north
west of here, where Clifton Car
roll reported couple of weeks
ago he found pea-sized gold mug
gets in the muck on the axle of
his fishwheel, a net-equipped
waterwheel to catch fish.
Wednesday prospectors in the
frigid tent town demanded that
first specimens of nuggets be sent
to the University of Alaska here
for assay.
Yesterday Geology Prof. Rich
ard Ragle examined them and de-
clared:
Three of the nuggets are gold
and one is brass"
Assay Report Awaited.
Veteran miners generally agreed
his entire report took a negative
view.
AS this is written. results of his
assay have not yet got back to
Fishwheel. which awaits the
assay report with tangled nerves. -
Jack Daum, staff writer for the
Fairbanks Newsminer, who flew to
the area, radioed last night that:
Arguments and near f1stf1ghts
flared along the Yukon Wednes-
day.
Gilbert Lord, Fort Yukon
roadhouse proprietor, has taken
personal charge Of the first mug
gets found and has been the most
outspoken booster Of this area as
the biggest thing since the Klon-
dixie.
"Prospectors who have spent
hundreds of dollars outfitting
themselves and flying here to this
bleak valley demanded of
Lord that he send the nuggets to

money from the gold strike now
are bush pilots" Fred Weller said
in a telegram to the department.
Mr.. Weller heads the Bureau of
Land Management Office at Fair
banks.
OF the 800 persons who visited
the Fishwheel strike area. 100
miles north Of Fairbanks, Mr..
Weller said, "only about so are
staying on the ground" He said
the other who staked claims have
returned to Fairbanks to await
developments.
Another official said that if the
gold strike was a. plant"
started with stolen nuggets, the
Interior Department has no
knowledge of it.
