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.

Enrich Com Meal
r, l‘?mson. 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.

corn mill. Other mills will follow
euit, and it is expected that in
time all mills in the state will pro

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.

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.

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.”

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.”

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. Accept no substitute.

Don’t Worry About Us!
/T\hey tell us that the fat salvage problem has got to be[ licked
in the small cities, the towns and on the farms.
Our country has to have one hundred million more pounds
of used fats this year. And we’re the people who must save it.
, We’ve rolled up our sleeves! We’ll save every drop and bit
possible... and keep doing it till the last Jap is licked.
HOW TO DO IT: Save all used fats in a tin can. Keep it handy
to the stove. Scrape your broilers and roasting pans, skim soups
and gravies. Keep meat trimmings and table scraps in a bowl.
Melt them dow n when your oven’s going, add the
liquid fat to V o salvage can. Take can to your
butcher as soon as it’s full. He will give you four
cents and two red points for every pound. Your
County Agent«; • Home Demonstration Agent can
give you full f ... .iculars.
