ed in many ways, including polit-

Should Lewis be as successful as
as Petrillo, it is safe to assume
that other union leaders would
follow suit and tax the production

By Mrs. Norma S. Haswell,
W. F. Assistant

ia asking Texas homemakers to
buy and serve more carrots and
beets ami Gov. Coke Stephenson
has declared this week Beet and
Carnot Week in Texas.
There is an abundance of both
in the markets, the prices are
moderate and their nutritive
value is high. Carro'ts, for ex-
ample. are good sources of Vita-
min G, and Calcium. Beets sup-
ply Vitamin B-l and Vitamin G
as well as iron. Use them gener-
ously!

The War Front
Since the war in Germany has
gone in, favor of the Allies, Hit-
ler appears to be the only Nazi
in Germany . . . Americans have
captured a mountain hide-out of
1,000 air-conditioned rooms
where Hitler master-minded the
conquest of France and Field
Marshal von Rundstedt plotted
his Ardennes offensive . . . Ger-
mans in Berlin are said to be
very busy secretly making white
flags to flash at Russians or
Western Allies when they invade
the capital. . . . Because of the
heavy manpower losses being suf-
fered by the Jap Navy, Hirohi-
to’s sailors are being told to
think twice before commiting
hara-kira . . . The last big syn-
thetic oil plant acitve in Ger-
many has been blasted out by
American and British planes . t .
Jap civilians are to be formed
into a volunteer corps patterned
after the volksstrum in Ger-
many. . . General Eisenhower in
a recent broadcast warned the
the Germans that Germany is
threatended with famine and
urged the farmers in Wesetern
Germany to remain om their
farms at all ocsts to prevent a
catastrophe. . . The super-high-
way, to Kassel, built to facilitate
German maneuvers, is a boon to
the Allies. . A German gener-
al captured oin the Westrn Front
predicted that Hitler would try
to lead a final suicide charge in
which he wbuld die in order to
be remembered by the people. . .
In the path of the advancing
Allies, the Germans on the Wes-
tern Front are distributing pam-
phlets teaching the art of sabot-
age, directed particularly to the
members of the Hitler Youth
movement.......The
airfield on Okinawa, when con-
verted to American use, will
bring Japan's sea lanes to China
and her war factories at Shang-
hai within medium bobbing
range.

money paid into National Service
Life Insurance?

glasses in case of breagage.

Surveys show that the average farm tractor will
last two extra years if it is operated carefully and
lubricated properly. Moreover, it will do more
work with fewer breakdowns. v
To help you get those extra years of good wott*^
from your tractor, use Sinclair Pennsylvania of
Opaline Motor Oil to save wear on the motor.
These famous oils lubricate better and last longer
because they are expertly refined from oldest, mel-
lowest crudes, then de-waxed and de-jellied by an
extra refining process. Phone or write us today.
