• Health and strength are
treasures we must draw upon
to win our "Battle of Produc
tion.” To guard these assets,
and to fight the foes that would
rob us of them, is an obliga
tion shared by your physician
and your pharmacist. Our duty
is to keep you well—and keep
you working. For the nation
needs a full measure of
your energy and effort.
But you, too, have a
part to plav. You can
co-operate by avoiding
unnecessary risk); by adopting
every reasonable preventive
measure, and by promptly
calling upon a competent phy
sician when illness threatens.
Remember that the preser

has now become a patriotic
duty. Get well—KEEP well!

PRESCRIPTIONS
fSOMSyJ? SOLDIERS ALL/
The retail stores of Amer
ica are doing their level best
to supply essentials for the
Home Front. In this sense
the folks behind the counters
are Soldiers All!-
Effective June 1, provisions and
standards governing all selective ser
vice registrants examined at the
armed forces induction station will
be changed in some respects. Upon
arrival at the induction station, a
preliminary interview will be given
selectees. All graduates of standard
high schools will be qualified men
tally for induction on the basis of an
oral interview without further test
ing. A transcript of high school rec
ord, certificate of graduation, educa
tional experience suipmary card or
other evidence, verbal or written, sat-
iisfactory to the interviewer, will be
considered sufficient. If there is doubt
as to the adequacy of such schooling
or as to the proof of graduation, the
qualification test will be given.
In order to facilitate their process
ing and obviate the necessity for;
further mental qualification test, high
school graduates should secure and
bring with them to the induction sta
tion the appropriate evidence of their
educational attainment. Failure on
the part of any selectee to secure such
evidence must not delay his induc
tion.
The educational experience sum
mary card referred to above is being
distributed by the state board of ed
ucation to all accredited high schools
in South Carolina and should be
available in the event a transcript of
high school record or certificate of
graduation is not applicable in any
case.
