RECREATION IN WARTIMES
College Station: — If war outlasts
the nation’s automobile supply, farm
famili- s "ill do more adjusting than
any other population group, accord-
ing to the C.S. Department of Agri-
culture. Already, many rural families
In Texas are feeling the pinch of the
tire r iloning. which means they will
depend more on recreation at home
than on going to town or commucty
centers.
Dosra Male. Extension Service
specialist in parent education and in
i hild development, says recreation is
au important pitas.- of normal family
life. Wartime* bring added stress to
t v. yone, hut it is important that the
anxieite* do not weigh heavily upon
elflldren. To help them have hi ilthy.
wholesome good times she suggest-
family gathering at home, reading of
good stories, family sing-songs, and
excursions to the woods for native
trees and shrubs These forms of
recreation are not only fun hut they
cost little or nothing, the specilist
says.

time they spend with chiMrc:. This

of companionship. 1’lan occasionally
to do something as a family group
which v ill'be fun for all, she advises.

HOME ACCIOENT8 DEPLORED
College Station:—'Recent increases
in home accident deaths prompt Mrs.
Bernice Claytor, Extension Service
specialist in home Improvement, to
uige accident prevention work in war-
time. At a time when every citizen
must contribute his maximum to the
nation’s victory effort, home acci-
dents slow down production, rob the
nation of essential manpower, and
are costly In money and morale, she
s.aya.
Remedies for home accidents are
more difficult to effect than remedies
for industral accidents, since there
is tio direct control over family life.
Mrs. Claytor says that means the re-
sponsibility for accident prevention
lies with every family. She says that
homemakers can make their homes
rafer by doing these things:
l'a- care in waxing floors and in
placing rugs.
Install handrails or other simple
r ifcty devices over bathtubs.
Light stairways.
Keep matches and poison out of
the reach of children.
Dispose of can-openers which are
dull or broken.
Keep knives and other pointed in-
strumertg In their proper place and
ti h children to avoid them or to
uki them carefully.
See that clothing and curtains are
hung where they cannot be ignited
by an open flame.
Kiel a short stepladder bandy, and
avoid standing on chairs.
Promptly wipe up grease or water
spilled on the floor.
Don't allow kettle to boil over, for
watei will extinguish a gas burner.
If yon notice a gas leak, extinguish
ill flame, ventilate the room, and
call your gas company.
The biggest help is io take your
linn , the spenaTLsi says. 11 , tying
r< -alts in many accidents.

mally would be marketed with wool
too long for the flying suits and to
shear soon enough to permit a grow-
th of wool of proper length by slaugh
ter time.
Colder weather in other sheep-rais-
ing sections of the country makes
shearing at this time of the year im-
practical, Mr. Robinson pointed out.
In t rder to protect raiders who
shear immediately from financial loss
the Office of Price administration
has removed the ceiling on tanned
alien rings.
Mr. Robinson emphasized the fact
that it is highly important that wool
on skins be no more than an inch
long because trimming longer wools
to one inch or less is a difficult, ex-
pensive process Involving the use of
a special comb attached to the shear-
ing head. The entire output of shear-
ings 1 as been reserved for military
uses.

inasmuch as the number of prints

nor Stevenson has requested that
tlie plants be returned to the distri-

hope to have trained instructors in
ill civilian defense activities in th
var.-rts immunities shortly, and
they will he equipped with portable
sound motion picture projectors and
films which will gteaily aid their
discussions,"
The Governor pointed out that
there a tv many sixteen millimeter
sotf.-id film projection on.-chines in
Texas, . ad it is likely that one can
be obtained through the local school
.superintendent, the chamber of com
an-. : civic clubs or from photo-
ampin ■ and film supply houses. if
no projectors are available lo;ally,
:t w.im suggested that the coordinu-
-of communicate with the Governor's1
i
office where information can be ob-
tained regarding the nearest projec-
tion machine distributor.
The Office of Civilian Defense has
adivsed that eleven more sixteen mil
llmeter films are being made at* thai
time and that the National Defense
committee for Texas will receive ap-
proximately ten prints of each. The
titles of these films are not yet known
but as Information is received in the
Governor’* office, bulletins will he
relcas“d to the local defense coordin-
ators.
Governor Stevenson stated that
there are several films available
through film distributing agencies
which have the approval of the Office
of Civilian Defense, although they
are in t necessarily “training" films.

SERVICE NOTICE
toer to compete for selection as an
officer candidate in the Army, It. was
announced this week by T. J. Moore,
chairman of the Llano county local
•rd.
Under a new system just authori-
zed bv the Secretary of War, Mr.
Moore said, such registrants voluri-
t ’cring and accepted for officer can-
didate training will be Inducted into
the Army through the Selective Ser-
vice system and given four months
training in the ranks at private’s pay
to determine their potential prospects
for commission. At the end of the
training period any not recommend-
ed for an officers candidate school
may request release from active duty
and return to his home, and will not
again he subject to call for active
duty unless registrants having simi-
lar dependency claims are being in-
dicted into military service.
Mr. Moore emphasized that class
IT 1-A legisti(:nts wlho vr’.rnteer to
try for a commission must be Ameri-
can citizens with at least four years
high school education. The local
boapd, at this discretion, may re-
ject applications of any who should
be deferred as “necessary men" in
war production. Volunteers who are
under 21 years of age must obtain
the written consent of their parents
or guardians ,he pointed out.
The first step to he taken by a
class 111-A registrant desiring to vol-
unteer for officer candidate training,
according to procedure outlined in a
memorandum from the National Se-
lective Service headquarters, is to
file with his local hoard an “Applica-
■ : : 1 V -luntier .-ad Waiver of De-
pendency,” which also must be sign-
ed by bis dependents. After the
board lias checked his application, to-,
u-t-lfe with his -itizenship, educa-
tional qualifications, and status rs a
“necessary man” in his civilian activ-
ity, the registrant is given a pre-
liminary physirnl examination by the
loeil board examining physician.
If the eyistrant pa-tses bis physi-
cal t- t. ad v is- 1 that his next
step j., •) j- i-se.it ain.-el: at a desig-
nated \rt;:y :ei< y-t!on enter o: Army
replac. nient c--liter for qualification
exam; .. li-m. All expense* incident
to travel to and from the reception
or :) -placement center, Mr. Moore
pointed out, must tie defrayed by the
volunteer registrant, himself, includ-
ing meals aid lodging.
I’pou completion of the qualifica-
tion examination, the registrant re-
turns to his home, regardless of
whether or not he bus been found
qualified as a volunti er officer candi-
date, and presents the Army report
to his local board, if the registrant
has been rejected for officer Candi-
da!- 1;.lining, his application to vol-
ume';. it denied ' y the local board
d h is tain .1 In class 111-A. In
the Army, he is placed in class 1-A,
and will be ordered to report for in-
duction as a volunteer at the next
rail for dt-liv ry of men by his local
board.
The average period of basic and
officer candidate training, Mr. Moore
said, will be from six to nine months,
during which time th< registrant will
- five the -mm- rate of pay as a
private incl i; ted in';) the Army—-at
the present t
for the first f
pi ;• numin for the remainder of the
training period, unless his rate of
pay is increased by r< ason of his
promotion.
