Unpatriotic Act Nipped In Bud
By Patriotic Filling Station Owner
A very unpatriotic act was “nipped in the bud" by a very patriotic
filling station operator in Bay City this week, according to a story
leaching our ears.
A certain person eyed a couple of tires in a heap and mnde the
remarks that the tires had several good miles in them. He said he
believed he would hold them out. The operator, overhearing this, pulled
out his jack-knife nnd cut the tires into shreds rendering them value-
less to anyone except Uncle Sam.
If everyone, contributing usable rubber, would cut it up before
depositing it at n depot, any sort of evil temptation harbored by the
aforementioned person nnd his ilk would be eliminated.
There is no need to go any further into the fact that Uncle Sam
has to have all the rubber he can get to win this war—for you and you.
Individual Problems Must Be
Met In Individual Communities
i The problems of civilian defense will not be solved in Washington,
one official states. Washington can advise and plan and help, but
individual problems must be met in individual communities. The obli-
gation is upon every locality and upon every individual civilian.
Cvilian protection means more than cautions against air raids and
other unexpected attacks. The growth of defense industries in locali-
ties not previously industrialized has given rise to problems of housing
and feeding workers that are,more serious, perhaps than the building
of bomb shelters.
The problems, this official points out, to be met by civilians are
calling for the attention of every civilian. Listing those problems he
■called special attention to the growth of defense industries and resultant
civilian living conditions, curtailment of civilian production, man power
:shortages, problems of civilian protection, the needs of people in war-
time, and morale.
Texas Gulf Coast Extends
Hearty Welcome To Baptists
The Texas Gulf Coast extends its heartiest welcome to Baptists
from every section of the State who will attend the Forty-first Annual
Texas Baptist Encampment at Palacios from Tuesday, June 30, to
July 10.
Some noted speakers are on the program and it will be well worth
everyone’s time and effort, whether Baptists or not, to arrange to attend
some of the instructive services.
Some of he principal speakers will be Dr. John L. Hill of Nash-
ville, Dr. S. G. Posey of Austin, Pat M. Neff of Baylor University, Dr.
W. R. White of Hardin-Simmons University, Dr. Julian Atwood of
Dallas, and Dr. E. D. Head of Houston.

The above map of the country shows the War Bond
Quota by states for the month of June totalling SHOO,000,-
000. Everybody every pay day Is expected to invest at
least ten per cent of his Income In War Bonds to aid in
financing America’s offensive against the Axis powers.
The ultimate quota for the nation will be on a basis of
one billion dollars per month effective in July. This sum
is necessary to provide for all-out production of planes,
suns, ships and munitions adequate to arm our lighting
men with the tools necessary to win the war.
USE THE BUCKETI
No Right Thinking People Want War
But They Will Fight To Have Peace
No right thinking people want a war, but they will fight one in
order to have peace. They know that only while there is peace can there
be real freedom, and that happiness ami progress are the fruits of
peace. The happiness of home and family is destroyed if it is haunted
by the constant fear that fathers, sons, husbands, and sweethearts may
have to sacrifice their lives, no matter how noble the purpose.
We in America are engaged in a great struggle . . not just be-
cause our peace was treacherously violated but because threatened
forces were gaining strength in the world to carry out their long-laid
plans for the destruction of all peace-loving and liberty-loving people.
We are in this war to win it, not just for America, but for all the
peoples of the earth—both for those whose government safeguard the
individual’s rights and liberties and for those who have helplessly and
unwittingly become the victims of vicious and unscrupulous leaders.
With the world drawn closer together through commerce, com-
munication, and aviation, it is clear that umicable neighborliness, eco-
nomic freedom, and mutual assistance must be the order of the day if
we are to have permanent peace and continued world progress.
America will see to it that the United Nations win the present
war and that all peoples of the world win the peace that will follow.
It must be a world where all people shall be free of fear, where “swords
will be beaten into ploughshares” and where there will be “Peace on
Earth, Good Will Toward Men.”
CONSERVE FOR VICTORY
FROM YOUR ELECTRIC TABLE APPLIANCES
With electric table appliances out of production due
to war, you’ll want to take good care of the ones you
have in order that you can continue to enjoy their step-
saving convenience. Here are some suggestions that will
prove helpful:
ELECTRIC TOASTER
Be careful in cleaning your toaster. Never put it in
water. Wipe outside with damp cloth, using mild abra-
sive if necessary. Heating element cleans itself when
you turn on the current.
Most toasters have removable crumb trays. Use a small
brush to wipe out crumbs if your toaster has no tray.
Be careful not to drop your toaster; it may break con-
nections or damage thermostat.
COFFEE MAKER OR PERCOLATOR
Never immerse a metal percolator in water. Stand on
dry drainboard, wash inside with warm soapy water,
rinse and dry. Wash outside with damp cloth, being
careful not to let water get into electrical connections.
If you have a glass coffee maker with cloth filter, rinse
filter cloth thoroughly with cold water after each using.
Between usings, keep cloth in glass of cold water.
If you have a metal coffee maker or percolator, substi-
tute a tablespoonful of baking soda for coffee occasion-
ally and proceed as though you were making coffee.
This will remove coffee oil adhering to metal and elim-
inate that bitter taste.
If your percolator refuses to heat, a fuse may have
burned out. Remove bottom plate and replace with
spare fuse or get another from your dealer.
WAFFLE BAKER
To clean waffle baker, wipe edge of grids with clean
dry cloth. If any particles stick to grids, remove with
wire brush. Never wash grids. It removes absorbed
grease that prevents sticking.
Wipe any spilled batter from outside with damp cloth,
then polish with soft polishing cloth. Never put waffle
baker in water.
If waffles stick, due to improper preheating or insuffi-
cient shortening in batter, remove all particles from
grids with wire brush, then with a small brush thor-
oughly cover grids with salad oil or unsalted melted
fat. Connect iron and heat until grid begins to smoke.
Pour in enough batter for one waffle and bake until
done. Discard this waffle — as it has absorbed excess
conditioner — and you won’t have to grease waffle
baker again if you take good care of it.
