Germans Think Our Cities Destroyed
One of the amazing things about German prisoners of
war who have been brought to this country is their steadfast
belief that the big eastern seaboard cities of the United
States have been bombed to ruins. Strange as it may sound,
even the officers of the crack German units captured in Afri-
ca seem to hold that belief.
With all the actual conquests that the German military
might can boast, it seems strange indeed that the propaganda
department should go to the pains to sell the soldiers on this
lie about bombing the United States. The only answer we can
figure out is that the German people and the rank and file of
the German army fear the strength of the United States and
them and everybody felt obligated to spend ration Stamp 17.
Large families that had economized in the past by letting the
children go barefooted, had to rake up money to shoe all the
kids. The more prosperous, not satisfied with spending the
ration stamps, invested heavily in non-rationed shoes as
well, creating a new field in the shoe business. All-in-all, ra-
tion stamp 17 brought shoe dealers the most prosperous era
in history*.
Hurt Like New Shoes
Personally, we haven’t been able to figure out just how
we came out in the deal. The wife engineered us into buying a
pair of non-rationed shoes at $2.98 and then spent our
stamp 17 to dress up her own feet at a cost of $7 plus what-
ever it was she spent with her own stamp.
It makes no particular difference. We are one of those
individuals that went barefooted so long in boyhood that
shoes have always hurt our feet. Before the war, we were al-
ways trying new kinds. Now that the rest of the family needs
the stamps, we can get out some of these old ones which are
made of good leather and hurt just as much as a new pair.

of victory to the allies in the last wrar.
Nazi Prisoners Undaunted
Another thing we learn from the prisoners is that the
morale of the German army is still high. Captured Germans
seem to have no doubt whatever about Hitler winning the
war. We were told of one lot of prisoners that arrived in Tex-
as last Fall. They expected to stay only a few months as
Hitler would soon be over to release them. As time dragged
on, they changed their tune. Maybe Hitler won’t invade the
United States, they say now, but he’ll rule everything on the
other side of the Atlantic.
Have Reason for Confidence
The high spirts of the Nazis is not hard to understand.
Aside from the false propaganda that is fed them, they have
enough actual victory and conquest to be cocky over. Hitler
Vina won the war in Europe up to this moment.^All he needs is
to persuade the Allies to quit fighting and leave him alone.
Likewise, the Japanese have won their war in the Pacific,
having oonquered one of the richest empires in the world. All
they need now is to be left in peace.
Fortunately for the world, the Allies have no thought of
letting things stand as they are. They have completed their
heart-breaking days of defense and preparation and are now-
carrying the battle to the enemy on every front. If we keep
always in mind that, for us, the main part of^ie war is still
ta be fought, we can be confident and optimistic.
We Succeeded Where Germans Failed
In the invasion of Sicily, the Allies already have achiev-
ed a feat which the tJtermans were not able to perform. The
Germans lacked either the strength or the courage to cross
the 20-mile channel from Frajjge to England when the British
were on their last legs. Now the Allies have crossed 90 miles
of water from the African coast to the shores of heavily-
fortified Sicily with only the lightest casualties. It is an ac-
complishment which will provide new nightmares for the
uneasy sleep of Hitler and Mussolini.
17 Years Ago
In Stamford
July 16, 1926
“The fourth annual meeting of
the Lueders Baptist Encampment
opened at the beautiful camp
grounds on the Clear Fork of the
Brazos River Tuesday night with
an attendance in keeping with the
ter Alexander of Rock Hill, S. C.,
delivered a brief spiritual address

promptly Wcdnesda ymorning. . .
The recreational features also
are getting underway. Fishing ap-
parently is good as campers were
seen coming in with lo-ng strings of
fish Tuesday afternoon.”
“R. L. Haynie, vice president of
the Penick-Hughes company, died
of apoplexy at his home early
Sunday morning. He was 55 years
of age and had been w(th the Pen-
ick-Hughes company for 22 years.
. . . Mr. Haynie was one of the
leaders of the civic affairs in
Stamford, being an active worker
in the Chamber of Commerce and
the Rotary Club. He has been iden-
tified with the progressive move-
ments and has had an important
part in the city’s development.”
From a tribute by the Rotary
club: “From the time Mr. Haynie
reached Stamford he was one of
Stamford’s most progressive and
constructive business men. He was
a moving spirit in his home, in his
business, in civic and church af

“After the regular meeting of
the Woodman Circle Tuesday
evening a social hour was held and
the announcement of the approach-
ing marriage of Mrs. Hattie Steph-
ens to Mr. R. P. Small on August
3 was made. The dainty refresh-

Stamford Men Probably in Battle
We have no way of knowing, but in all probability some
of the men from the Stamford area are engaged in the battle
of Sicily. They are part of a mighty enterprise and of neces-
sity face great danger. They are our men and we know they
will fight with skill and courage for their homes, their fami-
lies, their country.
We here at home hope and pray for their safety. It is
a time for those who have no loved one there to be humble
and for those who have to be brave. It is a time for all of us
to be diligent, to work hard at the tasks and duties whieh are
our share in the battle.
Keep Faith by Doing Your Own Job Well
There are too many people who are taking the war as a
joyride. Too many of those who were-left to tejid the fires on
the home front are concerned only with high wages, free
spending, new thrills and doing the least work necessary to
get the weekly pay check. This is no time for skylarking. War
is no holiday. How can anybody at home be frivilous when
our men in uniform are dying to defend us?
We talk a lot about buying bonds, collecting scrap and
giving to war relief. All of these are highly important in
carrying on the war. But more essential than any of-these is
that every man and woman do well on his own job, however
humble that work may seem. If Uncle Sam needs you for
something else, he will call you. Meanwhile, the shoemaker
should stick to his last, the 4iousewife to her home making,
the mechanic to his tools, the office worker to his desk, the
farmer to his plow.

Use two tablespoons less per cup than of ordinary fat called for.
To Clarify Fa
Use potato slices to “take bpythe slack.”
To one cup of fat, use half of medium
sized potato cut in one-quar^r-inch
slices, added to the cool fat. Heat grad-
ually until fat stops bubblirig. Strain
through cheesecloth or a fine,sieve. If
strained and stored in refrigerator, and
NOT SCORCHED, fat can be clarified
again,even after frying fi$h. (Scorched
fat is not good enough for dynamite,
even.) Keep in gas refrigerator.
To Render Haw Fats:
Cut suet and other fats in small pieces.
Boil in water. Let chill, and lift the
