"Judge, would you mind tellin' Charlie here what you told me the other night walkin' home from lodge. 1 can't word it just the way you did." "Sure thing, Tim. Here's what I told him, Charlie. There's no such thing as votin' a nation, a state, a county, or even a com- munity ..dry, Wo had proof. enough_ of. that during our 13 years of prohibition. What you really vote for is whether liquor is going to be sold legally or illegally... whether the community is going to get needed taxes for schools, hospitals, and the like, or whether this money is going to go to gangsters and bootleggers. That's the answer, boys ... sim4e, as A -B -C.". This advenistment syonmed by Confaenve of Alcoholic Beverage Indrut'iss, lac- POW roar ,Uses Oil of Marjoram Oil of marjoram has been sub- stituted for the dried herb for seasoning spice bouquets, sausages, canned meats, soups and other food products, due to its higher concen- tration and greater uniformity. Some of the Spanish oil is still being used, despite its inferior quality, on account of being considerably lower prised. New Sleeping Drug A new synthetic pain reliever, demerol, which resembles morphine, although of shorter duration and low- er toxicity has been successfully used at Bellevue hospital in New York city. In cases of minor surgi- cal procedures it has proved more effective than if morphine had been used. THE LIVONMN Wednesday, September 16, 1944 Cottonseed Protein Extraction of cottonse*d protein has proven an excellent adhesive for plywood as well as harder. woods. Using hard rock maple, the shear strength tests showed it to,1 withstand a pressure of more than'i 200 pounds per square inch break - Ing strength. Fresh Eggs in Rubber Instead of the standard cardboard carton now in use for eggs, the eggs of tomorrow—when rubber becomes plentiful—will be sealed in airtight rubber "sausage" casings. Three, six or twelve can be cut off without exposing the rest of the eggs to the air. Tannin in Tea The tenderer and more succulent the tea leaves, the richer they are In tannin and the better teas they will make. The caffeine content of good grades of tea is about 50 per cent higher than in poor grades. Milk Flow Cut It is lack of food and not the flies and heat which are responsible for the reduction in milk production dur- ing the summer months, according to South Dakota experiment station dairymen. Shell Explosions Shells loaded with TNT explode 100 times faster than those contain- ing smokeless powder. Those made with cyclonite have even faster action and destructive effects. Testing Potatoes By rubbing the cut surfaces of a potato together it is possible to determine the quality. If a white froth is developed around the edges the quality is satisfactory. Beverages and Teeth The drinker of cranberry juice proves the worse offender against teeth. Grapefruit juice, gingerale and colas follow in order named as offenders. Feed Moldy Corn While moldy corn is dangerous to horses and sheep it does not injure cattle, and swine can generally be fed all of the moldy corn they will eat. Earrings for Men The wearing of earrings by Yanks In the South Seas is nothing new.

These two registered German shepherd patrol dogs of Detroit Edison, their home -front duty ended, recently left for active roles with the "Devil Dogs" of the U. S. Marine Corps. Two years ago the dogs were acquired to assist in patrolling the company's outdoor 120,000 - volt step-down stations.

For donating the services of these two canine warriors, the company has received a citation from Lieut. General A. A. Vandegrift, Com- mandant, U. S. Marine Corps.

Hills, who is enjoying a furlough at his home in this city says the boys who were stationed at Dutch Harbor, found various ways to ease the boredom of the long days and nights in that desolate part of the world. "We had such good luck hunting caribou that they had to close the season. Then some of the old time fishermen up there showed us how to make nets to catch fish. We certainly got a dandy lot of them -and were they good" said Harold the other day in talk- ing of his experiences in the north. "There are both red and blue fox on the island. We used to feed the red fox, and they would follow us as we walked our posts at night time. The foxes became so tame that no matter where we went, they would go with us. One fellow went out at night on the post and he didn't know about how tame the foxes had become. One started trotting along with him as he walked his post. It Wednesday, September 6, 1944 scared him so that he ran for the barracks wish the fox right after him. The fellows gave him a great laugh," said Harold.

The present emergency is no different, in fact its magnitude has severely ourdened 'these systems. Despite the loss of experienced help the postoffice department has not only shouldered this add- itional burden but also encour- aged the sending of frequent mor- ale building gifts and messages to the armed forces, both in the United States and overseas, says Postmaster Harry Irwin. Ways and means have been and still are sought to simplify mail handling, in an effort to avoid delay of this added burden. Many have been suggested and adopted; others have proven to be of no benefit. Many require the co- operation of the mailing public in preparation. presentation and ad- dressing of mail. The greatest boon to prompt mail handling has been the Postal Unit Numbering System, which was inaugurated in 122 large cities about 15 months ago to offset the loss of experienced mail clerks to the armed services. Address- ing mail to these cities with the zone number ofter the name of the ci' y, identifying the unit effect- ing delivery, has most success - Fully provided an opportunity to use inexperienced help on a part time basis.

Thus far a fine response has been shown :by the mailing pub- lic in adopting the number sys- tem. Withcut it and this coopera- tion serious mail delays would oe common and prompt handling extraordinary. While good re- sults have been achieved, there are still many mailers who fail to address mail in this manner. This has been especially noted with respect to mail sent by peo- ple residing in cities where the numbering system has not been instituted, to correspondents liv- ing in those that have. There are six cities in Michigan to which mail matter should be so addressed, namely Detroit, Flint, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Lansing and Pontiac. If your friends reside in these cities, ask them for their delivery zone num- ber, jot it down and always use it when addressing mail to them. Postmaster Harry Irwin will be glad to tell .you the name of the other cities in the United States to which mail should be so ad- dressed. Persons having lists of addresses in these cities should submit them to the Postmasters concerned to 'be keyed to shove zone numbers. We will soon we into another holiday mailing season which al- ways severely overtaxes the fac- ilities, equipment, manpower and snace of post offices. Now is the time to check mailing lists and learn the zone numbers of each address in large cities. Now is the time to shop because of scarc- ity of gift merchandise and start saving boxes and packing ma- teriaQ which are difficult to ob- tain. The mailing period to the arm- ed forces . overseas is September 14 to October 15• Do your parr, plan now to pre- pare and address mail correctly and also be ready to mail early. 3uy U. ; , Derunst -- _pis and Stamps, the I.O.0 of the Red.
