New Orleans, La., Feb. 8.—
High school students in Texas
will be given an opportunity
to participate in a vital part
of the U. S. Navy training pro-
gram by Secretary of the Navy
Frank Knox.
Under a new plan, 300,000
aircraft models — 10,000
models each of 50 different
types of fighting planes—wiil
be needed for training person-
nel in aircraft recognition,
range estimation in gunnery
practice and civilian defense
training. The Navy soon will
call on Texas students to
build at least 20.000 of them.
The United States Office of
Education, which will admin-
ister the program, will send
letter: outlining the plan to
state superintendents within
the next few days. The first
set of working drawings wiil
be in the hands of cooperating
school by Feb. 23.
The models will be made on
a precise scale of 1 to 72-one
inch on the model represents
6 feet on the actual airplane.
The same proportion holds
true as to distance; a model
seen at 35 feet is identical
with the true airplane seen at
just under half a mile. Study-
ing the models through the
standard ring sight used on
aerial gun mounts becomes
invaluable training for the
cadet flier, teaching him not
only types and identification,
but range. Only three dimen-
sional models can serve prop-
erly for all these functions.
After a review of every
model submitted, students
completing stated quantities
of models, will receive certifi-
cates in recognition of the im
portance of the work. Approv-
ed models will be sent to avia-
tion units ashore and afloat
The Boy Scouts of America,
the 4-H Clubs, the Air Youth
of America, the Junior Bird-
raent, various Boys Clubs and
other youth organizations
throughout the state have
pledged support.
PREPARE FOR A
GOOD FAYING JOB
There is a big demand for
stenographers. The Civil Serv-
ice has sent out calls for
Stenographers, Secretaries,
etc. Private concerns have
sent out urgent calls for effi
cient young people. We have
for sale a scholarship in a
business college that will pre-
pare you for a paying job. Ask
us about it.

ITS HAPPINESS
Buy Bonds—Buy Stamps—just all that
you can
Everyone—that you buy-—helps whip—
old Japan
Then Germany—Italy—and there’s oth-
ers, too—
Will feel these slaps—that are coming—
from yon.
Keep mentally alert—and physically
fit—
And when Uncle Sam calls—do your
little bit—
When your food gets short—and you
start out—to buy—in
If you—want the best—don’t forget—

I RUBBER ON THE FARM
College Station.—Motorists
—and aren’t we all?—have
beer, so busy worrying about
the tires on their ears that
rubber on the farm has not re-
ceived much attention.
Rubber has played an in-
creasingly important part in
food production in recent
years. Rubber tirea for trac-
tors and farm implements;
rubber tubing in milking ma-
chines; rubber rings for can-
ning in glass jars—the list is
almost endless.
The following suggestions
for care of rubber oh the farm
are offered by JS. R. Bentley,
agricultural engineer of the
Texas A. and M. Extension
Service:
Block up the wheels to keep
weight off the tires when ma-
chines and implements are
out of the fields for any con-
siderable period.
If rubber-tired Implements
are stored on cinder floors,
block up the tires or place
planks under them. The sul-
phur in the cinders breaks
down the rubber.
Excessive slippage of trac-
tor tires causes heavy wear,
just as skids and quick stops
do on automobile tires. Over-
loading the tractor is one
cause of slippage, and pulling
in snow or mud without chains
is another.
Keep rubber-tired imple-
ments out of the sun when
not in use.
Under-inflation damages
both rubber and fabric m the
tirea.
A solution of calcium chlor-
ide to prevent freezing is rec-
ommended for northern areas
of the state if water is used in
tractor tires to add weight
Rubber tubing in milking
machines will last longer if it
is kept clean. After each
cleaning and sterilization, the
tubes should be hung up to
drain and dry.
