In their contributions to the win-
ning of the war many Americans arfr
giving the rubber floor mats of their
cars and doing without or using a
mat made of cloth or linoleum. Better
give these mats to Uncle Sam than
have Hitler take the whole car. We
could come nearer winning the war
without money than we eojuld with-
out rubber in these days of rubber-
using mechanized implements of war.

Those who donate their floor mats
will be furnished a sticker for their
car with these words, “I have given
my floor mat,' as an evidence of
their patriotism. Let’s go all-out to
win this war. What good will floor
mats be if we don’t win?
* * *
Let’s all go over the top in the re-
maining days of the drive to gather
up all used rubber that has been dis-
carded. Dig out that casing that has
been chucked away in the garage for
so long and turn it over to any ga-
rage man. Either give it to Uncle
Sam or sell it to him. If you sell, the
garage man will pay you one cent a
pound. If you donate it to Uncle Sam
he will see that Uncle Sam gets it
and Uncle Sam will appreciate your
generosity.

With so much rain, keeping vege-
tation on one’s permises under con-
trol is no small job. This means that
there will he more than the usual
amount of vegetation this summer
and along with it stagnant pools of
water in which mosquitoes will breed.
For that reason we should redouble
our efforts to keep down the grass
and weeds on our premises. Other-
wise we shall have more mosquitoes
than usual, and mosquitoes mean
sickness to say nothing of the loss of
comfort such condition will produce.

What UlUf With
WAR BONDS
The power of the greatest Navy in
the world, eur own two-ocean fleet,
rests in large measure on its back-
bone—the Battleships of the Line.
They displace approximately 35,000
tons and cost up to $70,000,000. We
have something like a score of these
huge ships in the Atlantic and Pa-
cific,
Eight huge battleships are under
construction and more are contem-
olated. To finance these modern
goliaths of the sea it is necessary
or every American everywhere to
ouy more and more War Bonds. We
can do it if everybody does his
share. Invest at least ten percent
of your income every pay day to
help your county go over its Bond
Quota. U. S. Treasury Department

Cleaners in many localities are asking their customers to
bring in one hanger with each garment. We’d appreciate

Scrap Rubber
Announcement
President Roosevelt has enlisted every man,
woman and child in the United States in the
hunt for scrap rubber for military and essential
civilian needs. You can make a vital contribu-
tion to our war effort by digging cast-off art-
icles of rubber out of every hiding place—at-
tic, closet, cellar, garage, warehouse or barn.
Hunt for rubber as if it were buried treasure,
for that’s just what it is. Gather up old rubber
boots, rubber-soled shoes, tennis balls, garden
hose, old rubber raincoats, mats, old tires and
tubes—yes, even old garters and girdles. Take
them to the nearest garage or service station.
There, if you wish, you will receive a penny a
pound for your scrap rubber. But take in your
old rubber, even if it is less than a pound. You’ll
find your Sinclair dealer is cooperating in this
nationwide movement to get in the scrap before
June 3($th.
