One derailment job recently
was carried out by guerrillas on
the line between Nevers and
Chagny, in Central France. Fifty-
two Germans were killed and 150
injured in this wreck and traffic
was blocked for several days.
The guerrillas also have been
active in wrecking of power
plants and water works, while
rubber-reclaiming factories in the
Limoges area were cut of produc-
tion for six months because of
wrecked boilers.

committee for the USA Rotary
International, feels that it is the
responsibility of Rotariuns as citi-
zens to build a new philosophy
of men living together in busi-
ness and profession.
“We have a war on one hand
and a social revolution on the
other,” said Monroe. “Each is a
distinct movement. The forces of
ideas will direct the decision or
outcome of each.”
“Today we are in danger of
loosing the war because of the
heat wave in Washington,” he
said. “The greatest danger we
lace today is the fact that we are
too selfish to unite with one idea
to win the war and accomplish
our needs.”
Special guests for the day were
competitors in business or the
professional friends of member
Rotariuns. Tuesday’s meeting was
designated as ‘Competitors Day.”
Visiting Rotariuns besides the
guest speaker were Herman Axel-

First Batch of Molten Iron At Texas Mill
Chief Salutes
By RUTH MILLETT
The Axis may start the tales ;
about the high percentage of im- !
morality among our women in
military service, as Mrs. Roose-
velt recently suggested, but Mrs.
Smith, American, passes them on.
There are several reasons why
Mrs. Smith may be eager to dis-
credit the girls in uniform.
Maybe she leads a dull, boring
life herself and is irked by the
- glamor that attaches itself to
| women in uniform. They are do.
ing something new and exciting,
and she is sitting around doing
what she has always done, and so
she is just plain jealous.
Or perhaps Mrs. Smith’s hus-
| band is in service and she can’t
be near him. If she is the type
who spends her life wondering
what he is u pto, she is almost
sure to be suspicious of the wom-
en who work with him. She falls
easily for any talk about uni-
formed women, and enjoys ie-
peating it.
No one is naive enough to eon. !
pose that every girl in military j
service has high standards. There
are too many girls from too many
types of environment to make any
such thing possible.
Better Then Most
But they are a superior lot, and
as a group they are probably as
well-behaved as any group of
young women in the country.
The big morality problem today
isn’t a problem concerned with
women in service—but with scat-
ter-brained high school girls who
are crazy over uniforms, and hang
around on street corners waiting
to be picked up.
Let’s worry about them and let
the women in uniform look after
themselves. They are old enough
to. And they are doing an im-
portant enough job so that they
shouldn’t be hampered by a lot
of ugly, malicious gossip.
They deserve praise—not a slap
in the face.
AU-Kiwanis Week was observ-
ed by the Sanford Kiwanians
with a special program Monday.
During the week of June 20-26,
2,200 Kiwanis Clubs in the United
States and Canada will hold spe-
cial meetings stressing Kiwanis
objectives and achievements.
“AU-Kiwanis Week is triply
significant this year,” Mr. H. A. i
Miller, club president, stated. |
“Our Kiwanis International Con- j
vention with its indicated atten- J
dance of 5,000, always held dur-
ing this week, has been cancelled
to give transportation of the
troops and war equipment the
right of way. Of the 1 15,000 mem-
bers of Kiwanis International,
10,000 are in military service.
This includes two members from
our own club. These two facts
bring home to us the responsibili-
ties attendant upon the privileges
of citizenship.
“Kiwanians have accepted war
time responsibilities and have
given unsparingly of their energy
I and time to all phases of war
I work in addition to their com-
1 munity service programs. This
I year our unalterable pledge will
j be to intensify our efforts in the
j prosecution of this war.”
i Fred G. McAlister, of London,
' Ontario, president cf the Kiwan-
j is International, in a special All-
Kiwanis week message said, “The
fate of a country is in its govern-
ment, but the fate of a democra-
cy is in the hands of the local
community. Today the intangible
qualities of faith and determina-
tion with which Kiwanians re-
view their pledge are powerful
factors in gaining for our coun-
tries a far-reaching victory.”
Johnnie Miller was in charge of I
the program for the AU-Kiwanis j
The program began with the ;
Week of the Sanford Club,
group singing “America,” and J. !
H. Agee gave the “Objectives of j
Kiwanis.” The speaker for the i
evening was the Rev. I. T. Hucka-
bee. The subject was “Achieve-
ments of the Kiwanis.” A short
silent prayer for fellow-Kiwani-
ans in armed services followed.
Closing numbers were the “Ki- j
wanis Club Pledge,” and the I
group singing “God Bless Ameri- j
ca.”
Next week the program will be i
a post-war discussion in charge I
of Harold Teegerstrom.

\ K ANAGKRS and personnel directors will tell
A.VJL you that regular rest-pauses plus the refresh-
ment of ice-cold Coca-Cola increase contentment
in their plants. Thus production is increased.
A pause for Coca-Cola is a little thing in itself,
hut one of the little things that brighten a
busy day.
You might think it strange that workers
have such a welcome for a 5(* soft drink.
But Coca-Cola has something all its own in
goodness. Made with a finished art, its taste
always please:;. More than just quenching thirst;
it brings a happy after-sense of complete refresh-
ment. The only thing like Coca-Cola is
Coca-Cola, itself.
The best is always
the better buy!
Letters from plant managers from coast to
coast emphasize that the little muifont for
an ice-cold Coca-Cola means a lot to workers
in war plants. It’s a refreshing moment on
the sunny side of tilings ... a way to turn
to refreshment without turning from work.
A breathing spell, a rest-pause anil ice-cold Coca-Cola.
Contentment comes when sou connect with a Coke.
