while continued scrutiny guar-
antees its development and ef-
fectiveness at the lowest possible
cost to the taxpayer.
Thus, while the U. S. does not
have the largest Army in the
world, its potency, multiplied
many times over by the support
of its partners, assures not only
the best Army in the world but
one of such strength and redi-
ness that none would dare to
contest it.

Captain enlisted in the Army in
1941 and was commissioned in
August, 1942.
He went overseas in 1943 and
saw action in New Georgia and
the Phillippines with a field ar-
tillery unit. He wears the Pur-
ple Heart as the result of a
wound received in the Luzon
campaign.
The recruiting officer has been
assigned to this area for the . last
two years and was instrumental
in obtaining the central exam-
ining station now located in
Beaumont.
Orders have not yet been re-
ceived as to whom will replace
Captain Grogg as Commanding
Officer of this area.

Texas 4-H Clubs All Set
For 1949 Garden Program
More than 4,700 Texas 4-H
Club boys and girls who pledged
their “hands to larger service”
last year are expected again to
enroll in the 1949 National 4-H
Garden, program. Announcement
of this state’s acceptance of the
program has been made by the
National Committee on Boys and
Girls Club Work. The activity is
conducted under the direction of
the Cooperative Extension Serv-
ice. *
Last year nearly 375,000 4-H
Club members ranging in age
from 10 to 21 years planted and
tended approximately 80,DOO acres
of garden, according to -reports of
State Club leaders. Born of war-
time necessity, the National 4-H
Garden contest was first launch-
ed in 1942. Peacetime has not
lessened the incentive to produce,
because 4-H’ers continue to raise
a large variety of fruits and vege-
tables which keeps the home table
supplied and reduces the family
outlay for food.
Records are kept of costs, prog-
ress and money returns as part of
the 4-H requirements. County
extension agents and local club
leaders organize and encourage
the youth to learn how to care
for and manage • a well-planned
garden, carry out a program of
disease control, and market sur-
The Army and Air Force Re-
cruiting Main Station No. 4, of
which the Silsbee Recruiting
Station is a part, lost its Comand-
ing Officer this week when Cap-
tain Milton R. Grogg received
orders transferring him to Fort
Lawton, Washington pending as-
signment to a field artillery unit
in Japan.
Captain Grogg is a familiar
figure in this area having ap-
peared at numerous civic argan-
izations both as a guest speaker
and as a representative of the
recruiting service. Although
pleased with his future assign-
ment, Captain Grogg expressed
deep regret in leaving this area,
where he has made many friends
during his assignment here.

The Meteor is light — fast —
easy to push. Built of alumi-
num alloy, it's 30% lighter than
ordinary lawn mowers. A
feather touch sends it whirling.
An ideal family mower be-
cause it's light — easy to
handle; designed to hug the
ground as it rides over your
lawn. Smooth operating, it has
attractive rubber tires, seif-
aligning ball bearings and
quick, easy adjustment.
Here's a lightweight, all-round
Pennsylvania mower that s a
stand-out in any neighbor-
hood. Your best bet (for a
family mower) is the Pennsyl-
vania Meteor. Let us show you
one today.

Army Day, April 6th, will be
observed the country over and
wherever U. S. troops are sta-
tioned abroad. Singled out as a
remembrance of U. S. entry into
the first World War, the holiday
was inaugurated in 1928 by the
Military Order of World Wars.
It was officially recognized by
the 75th Congress, March 17, 19-
37. The theme of the Army Day
celebration this year will be,
“The United States Army - Part
of the Team - for Security.”
Words will never embellish the
Army’s effort at Texas City two
years ago, at Bar Harbor in 1947
or the Mississippi Valley in 1927.
And while the military service
has always been the prime asset
of its government, its achieve-
ments in every field of welfare
point up the fact that the extent
of its, • peacetime exploits is
scarcely known.
Broadly speaking, the Army,
disavowing hit or miss armanent
programs, stakes its case on what
President Truman termed “a na-
tional defence position of relative
military readiness, coupled with
a higher degree , of mobilization
preparedness,”
This is to serve notice that
while the strength and techniques
of possible aggressor states are
changing rapidly in the current
scientific revolution, the U. S.
Army is also revising its esti-
mates, not behind them, but
ahead of them. Moreover, it is
setting about to provide the Mo-
bile Striking Force required

plus produce. In an effort to
“make the best better,” products
are exhibited at county, district
and state fairs, as well as in com-
munity competition.
Each 4-H Club member en-
rolled in the garden program has
an opportunity to win one of four
county medal awards provided by
Allis-Chalmers. Also a state
award of an all-expense trip to
the 1949 National Club Congress
in Chicago, and a chance to be-
come a candidate for one of eight
$300 scholarships.
