James Fenoglio brought some
mammoth turnips to The News of-
fice last week, so large, in fact,
that one of them would serve for
a meal for a family much larger
than that of the editor.
They were grown on A. J. Fen-
oglio's farm, 3 miles northeast of
Montague. One weighed 4% pounds
and measured 20 u> inches in dia-
meter. The other was slightly
smaller. Neither was pithy.
As long as turnips of this size
can be grown, we’ve decided not to
worry about food rationing.

The Nocona War Mothers Club
met on December 8 for a very in-
teresting meeting in which mem-
bers exchanged news of their own
sons. Each gave her son’s sta-
tion, as well as much about his
work as was permissible, and some
excerpts from his letters.
At the next meeting, which will
be on January 12, each member
is to bring a picture of her son
or sons and any news of them
which might be interesting to all.
Mothers who have been missing
meetings are urged to attend reg-
ularly. They will enjoy talking
about their sons, striving for their
welfare and hearing the experi-
ences of others in addition to the
planned program.

Do not let the war effort down!
Have your hose ready; place them
out where they can be found easily
if you are to be away from home.
It is possble that a few houses
may be missed. If yours should be
missed and you have worn out
hose, take them to Mr. Wallaces

During 1943 homemakers can ex-
pect to buy many foods in bulk
which they formerly bought in
more convenient cans. Sauerkraut
is one food, for example, which
likely will be sold only in bulk
during the year just ahead, says
Louise Bryant, specialist in home
management for the A. and M.
College Extension Service. ,
Planning meals by the week and
taking war-time adjustments into
consideration will increase the
homemaker’s efficiency, the spe-
cialist believes. Before the end of
1943 housewives may make their
soup at home or buy it at her
neighborhood grocery store and
take it home in a jar or bucket.
Manufacture of canned soups has
been curtailed because of unecono-
mical use of tin cans.
Eliminating the frills in packag-
ed foods and other household ar-
ticles may be expected. Soap will
have fewer wrappings, and there
, vill not be as many types and sizes
of containers on grocers' shelves.
Looking at adjustments in the
lothing field, consumers need not
'xpect many major changes
1943. but 1944 may offer many
problems. In the year ahead the
• homemaker will find fewer cot-
itons on the market, less rayon and
.wool goods, and more “blends” of
wool and synthetic fabrics. Ar-
ticles such as galoshes must be
"duration goods.” that is, they must
last for the duration. ,
There are some new mixtures,
fibers and articles on the market,
but they are still in the experi-
mental stage, so don’t believe all
the claims made for new articles
and materials on the market.
“The Sheltered King.” a Christ-
mas story in readings and songs
was rendered at the First Baptist
Church of this city ’last Sunday
night.

Brandt. Mrs. George Kegley. Mrs.
L. M. Lacy. Mrs. D. H. Clark. Mrs.
Terrell Harrison. Miss Lavinia

ber 20, at 2:30 p. m„ with Bro.

Claud Lytton Gass was born to

the age of 13 years, he moved with
his parents to Haskell, Texas,

Ellender Counts on December 29,
1895. at Tulia, Texas. To this

Gas and his family moved to Ring-
gold in March, 1910, where they
have resided to the present time.

years, Mr. Gass died in the Gen-
eral Hospital in Wichita Falls, on
December 19, 1942.
