SAVE MONEY

College Station. — Making
soap on the farm, long con-
sidered an aet of thrift. is con-
trary to the patriotic apirit of
Hie times. The question is,
whether to save money or

’Fran the economical stand-

the appeal now is for glycerine

become rancid. The glycerine
content is reduced when fats
are rancid.

this failure is reducing the out-
put of explosives.
Many rural families believe
they do not waste any fat, but
they should check themselves
carefully, the specialist sug-

and go down the drain or into
the garbage. The first princi-

VICTORY TAX MAY
BE ON WAT OUT
Washington, Sept 17. (UP)
—The victory tax, a war baby
that was born as a special S
per cent payroll levy and grew
into part of the current pay-
as-you-go system, today seem-
ed destined for an early grave.
Chairman. Robert L. Dough-
ton, D., N.C., of the House
ways and means committee
has added his voice to that of
Chairman Walter F. George,
D.. Ga.. of the Senate finance
committee in urging that in the
interest of simplification the
victory tax be combined with
the 6 per cent normal tax.
Neither has said definitely
what the combined tax ought
to be, but George suggested 10
per cent, which apparently
would be an increase of 1 per
cent over the two taken sepa-
rately.

St. Louis, Mo.—They didn't
call them WAC*s 130 years
ago but records at Jefferson
Barracks disclose a women’s
auxiliary corps existed at the
post in 1813.
There were some differ-
ences. For one thing, the girls
of that era drew only regular
army rations of 15 cents a day.
In the line of active duty they
had such grimy chores as
scrubbing cannons, oiling mus-
kets. filling powder horns and
prepared wadding for ammu-
nition.

to present its views “for some
