, i • «!t ''i f- Thursday, June 21, 1945 i i By MARY Z. m. D O YOU find yourself always hurry lug and always tired? If you do, it’s time to stop and do something about it, because un less you are actually ill, it may be your own fault through lack of sys tem. No one else can make a schedule for your day’s activities so you’ll have to work it out by yourself. As to being tired, it’s perfectly natural to get tired, but if you are well, you should just as natu rally feel rested, too, if you give yourself a chance. ' When you’re at home alone all day, do yon eat your lunch? Are you wearing the right kind of shoes to work in? Do you worry over the past, pres ent and future and about things over which you have no con trol? All these are very definite factors that contribute to per petual and seemingly unac countable tiredness. So eat your lunch sitting down and relaxing. Listen to the radio or read something that will take your mind off of yourself and your problems. Take an afternoon nap. Even 15 minutes will rest you. Do you know that the researchers have figured out that if you gq at your job half dead from weariness, you’re paying a 50 per cent tax on every hour? And another thing, you aren’t much fun for the family if you are everlastingly tired. And now about time. If you aren’t “quick turned’^ or if you’re only “out of practice” you may have to train yourself in this re spect. Learn to make each move count. Avoid handling things twice or more times unnecessarily. Are you sure you aren’t spending too much time on nonessentials? You’ll discover there’s quite a list of these if you think about it. Do you waste minutes of in decision over purchases and plans? This thing of thinking in circles takes toll of both time and energy. Some women find it helpful to write out a list of things to be done, not an iron-clad schedule as to the exact minute when certain tasks must be started and finished, but reminders of odd jobs that should be taken care of. This is particularly true if you are for tunate enough to have day help. Market lists are essential. With trips to market reduced to an ab solute minimum, forgotten necessi ties amount to acute discomfort. Hie minute you see you’re almost out of a household supply, put it on the list and save yourself the time of going through staples to discov er your needs. If you try to keep lists of supplies in the back of your head, you are apt to be con fused and more than likely to for get something.

June 16. — In the fine nroecress now being made by corn mills of the state in corn meal en richment, McCormick County has 3tepped out in front. All seven of *he com mills in the county have ^.dded the special enrichment e- quipment and are now turning out enriched meal, according to fig ures announced by R. E. Ware, ex tension food improvement special ist in charge of equipping mills. To date, Mr. Ware’s figures show, 74 mills in 26 counties have put in the enrichment equipment, an attachment devised by Clemson nutrition workers for use with any corn mill. Other mills will follow euit, and it is expected that in time all mills in the state will pro duce enriched corn meal. Next to McCormick in number of mills now enriching meal comes Anderson with six mills equipped, followed by Pickens with five mills equipped. ' X New Bulletin Discusses Postwar Farming In S. C. Clemson, June 16. — One of the latest bulletins issued by the Clemson College • Experiment Sta tion is Bulletin 356, A Pattern of Agriculural Production in South C^roUna Aftpr the War. Com piled by M. J. Peterson and G. H. ^nl 1 . the bulletin introduces some of the nroblems of agricultural re conversion in the state. Tn spite rf serious deficiencies in labor, materials, and equipment, the total volume of agricutural croduction during each of the last four years .has exceeded that of the nrevious year. The immediate problem is to maintain the 1944 level of production. Once victory is achieved, farmers will be faced with the task of reconverting to a pattern and a level of production consistent with peacetime condi tions. The bulletin represents the cur rent thinking of a group working with farmers, agricultural admin istrators, and professional agri cultural technicians. It is hoped that it will stimulate thinking and discusssion at gatherings of farm ers, school officials, civic clubs, and similar organizations con cerned with the pattern of agricul tural production after the war. Copies of Experiment Station Bulletin 356, A Pattern of Agricul tural Production in South Carolina After the War, may be obtained from the Publications Department at Clemson or from county farm agents. Farm Slaughterers Must Get Permit By July 1st Farm slaughterers in *Mr’ r, rr-| mick County were reminded tr da" j by Mr. H. N. Coleman, Chairmn 1 of the War Price and Rationing Board, that July 1 is the last dat" for obtaining a permit if they wish to slaughter or have animals slaughtered for sale during 1945. Mr. Coleman defined a Class 3 slaughterer as a resident operator of a farm who sold less than 6, 000 pounds of meat resulting from slaughter of his own livestock last year. Farmers who did not slaughter meat for sale last year may ob tain a permit to market up to 400 pounds during 1945, he ex plained, but no permit is required to dress meat for the farmer’s own consumption. x Tire Dealers Must.

Tire dealers in McCormick Coun ty are required to have a complete inventory of their tire stock and Parts B at the close of business, June 30, Mr. H. N. Coleman, Chair man the War Price and Rationing Board, said today. Dealers who fail to register their June 30 inventory with OPA be fore July 10 may not legally trans fer rationed tires after that date. During the period July 11-25* OPA’s Enforcement ^Division will conduct a survey on dealer com pliance, aimed especially at fail ure to register, failure to keep proper records, and failure to maintain accountable inventory, Mr. Coleman said. To assure that the available supply of tires are used for the most essential wartime uses, from now on, all tire cerificates will be channelled through OPA’s Verifi cation Center, he added. At the same time, Mr. Coleman urged all drivers of cars, especial ly drivers of cars with “A” cards, to continue to recap tires. Mr. Coleman explained that tire failures increase as much as 30 per cent in hot weather and that the increased tire allocation is only sufficient to take care of the essential needs of “B” and “C” card holders. “Our civilian supply of tires is still far short of the heavy de mand,” Mr. Caleman said. “The months ahead will provide a cru cial test of whether we can keep essential wartime transportation rolling.” Sports Bolero } Pattern No. 8811—The recent ex- i libits I’ve been to all point to a big eason for the smart sun-back i >olero for sports or just sun-tan- ling.

Safety Program Re quires Accident Records Every year hundreds of drivers violate a very important section of the traffic code some deliberately, many unwittingly. The authority for this statement is J. S. Williamson, Chief Highway Commissioner, and the law referr ed to is the one which requires that traffic accidents be reported to the highway department with in 24 hours. While Mr. Williamson says he will not be satisfied until every accident which happens on the streets and highways of the State is reported, he recognizes tha‘ most people who fail to report ac cidents do not know the purpose behind the law which makes re- oorling mandatory. The Highway Department need* all accident reports in order to as certain facts, conditions and cir cumstances which contribute to traffic accidents. Only by study ing each accident is it possible to learn the reasons behind them and to formulate reasonable and adequate programs of accident prevention. “Do everything possible to avoid an accident, but if you have one, report it at once. The information in your report is held in confi dence.” Primitive Methods Need Not Be O" Followed in Advertising Be Modern ADVERTISE HERE!! rIELS BmBlUAN IN ) Noted Medicine Gave Her One Of Happiest Surprises Of Life, States Mrs. William son. Enjoys Every Meal Now; Sleeps Fine. “If everyone knew the true merit of Retonga, the Company could not make it fast enough,” declares Mrs. Zillia Williamson of Rr-iite 2. Box 221. Wilson, N. C. in praising this noted herbal stom achic and Vitamin B-l medicine. For about tv/o years I felt so rundown and weak that I could tak-:* little inteiest in anything else,” continued Mrs. Williamson. I suffered so much distress from indigestion that I did not dare eat anything rich or heavy and I gel to v.iiere I di.l not wans to eat anything at all. I felt restless. 1 fomd it hard to concentrate on n;y business affairs, and I had little energy. Sluggish elimination krpt me taking laxatives all the time. I just seemed to be in a rut and could find nothing to help me out of it. “Retoriga gave me such grand relief that I now eat three good meals a day, that exhausted, rest less feeling is relieved and I now feel good every day. The sluggish elimination is relieved. I sleep soundly and I feel stronger than in ten years. Retonga is the grandest medicine I ever used in all my life.” Such grateful evidence can leave d° ubt °f the great worth Mrs. Williamson found in Retonga. Retonga is a purely herbal gastric tonic combined with liberal quan tities of Vitamin B-l and is in tended to relieve distress due to Vitamin B-l deficiency, constipa tion, insufficient flow of digestive juices in the stomach, and loss of appetite.
