Search For Lost Graves 01 American Dead
Being Carried On Scientifically In Europe
LONDON t I I'I It is a grim
land sobering thought to realize
that the bodies of thousands of
American soldiers who fell 111
battle have not been found or
| identified.
However, it is some consol-
ation to relatives in the Cull-
ed States to know that every
effort is being made to lo-
and identify the remains of
all missing American sol-
diers.
Ann llagen of the Tinted
| Press, says this work is being'
carried 011 in a very scientific j
| way by the graves registration:
'command. Mrs. llagen talked,
with officers in charge of this;
command and learned that every |
day bodies of our soldiers are
being recovered from lonely
mountain regions and from other |
isolated spots where our men!
I fell Searching vast areas over j
which land and air battles of

Kept Yeast 20 Years
CCSIIING. OK LA . il'l'l -You
hear a lot about post-war won-
ders. Gadgets and concoctions
that make life jnst one beautiful
dreain
But, what do you know about
an age old mixture called ever-
lasting veast'.' The stuff that puts I
the "light" in home-made light .
bread?
It's great stuff, as any baker !
of homemade bread well knows. j
And in the case of Mrs. S. A. Bry- j
ant of Cushing, Okla.. her ever- i
lasting yeast is just like a mem- .
ber of the family She's kept it !
alive for 20 years.
That. Mrs. Cushing thinks, is j
some sort of a record In homage j
to the yeast, she's pasted a home
improvised five-star merit badge
on the jar
What the lady does in c;i-e
you're thinking "f baking vonr
own bread during the shortage
is start a small jar of everlast j
ing liquid yeast. Kvery time sliei
uses some, she puts a small pot* j
tion back in the jar and stores
it in the ice box.
On the other hand if your sup
ply of flour is far from everlast-
ing. .fust forget the whole thing. 1
on a particular day in a certain
battle, officers carefully study
a large field map that charts the
course of that specific battle.
The exact spot where each
regiment was located each day
is marked carefully on t li e map.
Perhaps a report of a regiment
shows that on a certain day 12
men were killed. If the records
show that the bodies of only six
of them had been recovered, a
search team is sent to that area
to find the remains of the other
six.
