Mt. Zlon Club Meet*
The Mt. Zlon Home Demonstration
club held 11h January meeting lust
Thursday afternoon at tho club house
with Mrs. Wade Holley, presiding.
The meeting was called to Order
with the singing of "Faith of Our
Fathers." Each member answered
the roll call with a favorite verse
from the Bible; then the minutes,
were read by tho uew secrotary, Mrs. '
Henry Belvin. A short business session
was held and Mrs. J. B. McCoy I
tho troasurer, who had been given
the deed for club house and grounds
by the county, presented It to the
club president. The uew chairmen
were then appointed by the president.
Our Home agent, Miss Fewell,
started her afternoon work by giving
tho county goal: "Every woman
to Buy War Bonds and Stamps." She
gave a very accurate account of what
each amount In stampis and bonds
would buy. Her talk was bo enthusiastic
that It made us realize more
than ever tho need of every dlino and
the responsibilities of every farm woman.
The need or growing more
foodstuff than ever?feed ourselves
and others?to abolish all the shipped
in canned goods and other things
that can be raised in our state and
county. It's really our best way of
helping to win the war. Time
changes everything and war makes it
faster, ho we've got to keep open
mlndB and change with It. As Ashley
Montagu said in his tluie, "How
to Find Happiness and Keep It." "Of
this you may be certain, that by keeping
an open ininu you will live as
fully as you can, while by keeping a
closed mind you live as narrowly as
you can." So wo must not say
"can't" because wo can do more than
ottestlanAabl etao ewer fromshrdlub
we've ever done before, even with
less labor, help, fertilizer And machinery.
The Demonstration war
"Poultry" uud was very interesting
helpful and educational. Everything
was covered from brooding chicks,
sanitation, disease and grading eggs.
Four new members Joined the club
at this meting, these being Mrs. Howard
Marshall, Mrs. T. P. Brown, Mrs.
Q. D. Munn, Mrs. L. P. McClean.?
Mrs. Henry Belvln, publicity chairman.

REDDING, CALIF.?An American

internment In Manila has relieved
suspense of at least one family.
She had fellow prisoners autograph
her shirt and a closeup of
the garment later was published in
the United States. On it Lois Linder,
Redding nurse, recognized the signature
of her brother. It was the flrst
assurunce she had that he was alive
since the Philippines fell.
STATE MUST HAVE PULL
SHARE VICTORY GARDENS
CleuiHOn, Jn. 30?"8ouih Carolina
luutil have her full charge of tho 13
million Victory Gardens which should
ho grown In Iho United States this
year to help moot wartlmo food production
problem*?must have,"- says
A. E. 8c hll letter, Cleniaou extension
horticulturist.
"11. W. Hochbaum, chairman of tho
committee on Victory Gardens for
tho U. 8. Doparttop^t of Agriculture,
la calling upon Bain's people
for six mlllon futSw flfrdeus and 12
million town and^W*P-gardens to
make a real contrlbun*M\to the total
civilian food supply/ SoJyUlefttor continues,
emphasizing tho special need
of the vital vitamins and minerals
and fruits needed for the well-being
of our civilian population. Here are
the facts of tho situation:
One-fourth of our total food production
in 1943 will be noeded for
our armed forces and to help supply
our fighting allies and tho workers
who make their weapons. Theslzo
of our armed forces and the length
of our battle lines grow dally. That
means more food immediately and
more for future use.
Tho United Nation's food strategy
is to build, with food, new power to
throw against the Axis. Food from
America made the combined American
and British campaign of Africa
possible.
Thirty-five per cent of the 1942
pack of the most important canned
vegetables was set aside for army
and lend-lease needs. Over one-half
of the 1943 commercial pack of vegetables
will be purchased by the government.
This means that civilians
must depend more and more upon
fresh supplies through home-garden
i_.oduct)ion.
The wartime burden on the Nation's
transportation system will make it
impossible to ship normal amounts
of fresh vegetables over long distances;
hence the need for producing
more of the civilian supplies close
to consuming areas.
In short, the Victory Garden will
contribute to the war effort on both
the fighting front and the home front.
It will reduce the demand on commercial
supplies that must go to military
and lend-lease needs; it will relieve
the food transportation and distribution
problems; it will reduce the demand
for strategic materials for canning;
it will enable the gardener to i
supply his family with the means of
maintaining good food habits so essential
to health.
