THEY MOVED OUT LAST
WEEK AGAINST LAMENTS
Despite the objections and lamen
tations of almost everyone affected
by the presidential order to move cer
tain non-defense government agencies
out of Washington, moving plans
were being carried out last week.
The betting rings, club houses, and
other buildings at the horse-racing
tracks at Laurel and Havre de Grace,
Md., may be adapted to government
use for office space during the emer
gency, in an effort to hasten the gov
ernment's decentralization program.

MOLLOHON GIRL SCOUTS
STILL ACTIVE
ON THE WAY OUT
There’s going to be plenty of
changes in shopping habits, delivery
facilities, personal transportation
and other phases of American life.
Already proposed is every-other-
day daily delivery of milk, and con
solidation of delivery routes to avoid
duplication of truck mileage.
Two-trouser suits are on the way
out; so are vests of double-breasted
suits.
Nylon, which had been counted on
to take up much of the slack in hos
iery yams when silk imports were
stopped last August, itself is now in
such need for parachutes that civilian
use of it for hosiery, underwear and
other uses has been cut 20 per cent.
BAR FOUR TEACHERS
For the first time in history, the
New York city school system recent
ly ousted a regular teacher who had
been on a high school staff for six
years, because it was found he had
misrepresented his working exper
ience when he first applied for a
school position.
In later action, the city school
board suspended three other teach
ers on charges of Communistic acti
vity, appearing 1 in class in an intoxi
cated condition, and being responsible
for a fund shortage, respectively.
Just in case you have forgotten us
I’d like to tell you that the Mollohon
Girl Scouts are reporting again. And
I’d like to tell you about our meet
ing last Monday night, January 12.
We were called to order with the
roll call as usual, each girl reporting
as her name is called a Girl Scout
Law. Then we had scripture and
prayer, followed by the general busL
ness discussion. Eight new girls
were voted in for membership in our
Troop. They were Winona Layton,
Evelyn Dickert, Arbrette Jennings,
Lillian Senn, Doris Oswald, Janie
Vaughn, Fay Shealy and Beverly Wil
lingham. We hope they will decide
to become Scouts for we’d like to
have them in our troop. But we
haven’t forgotten that there are sev
eral who have not been initiated yet,
and believe me that is fun, especially
the way we do it. But that is a sec
ret!
You know, we went to Florida
Christmas — twenty-four of us. And
we really enjoyed that trip. We saw
so much we can hardly believe it our
selves. In St. Augustine while we
were having a meal a very kind eld
erly gentleman gave us all some
candy. Later we found that he was
a professor at Carnegie Tech. Then
at Silver Springs, Mr. Ross Allen
held a special showing of his shakes
for the Scouts. We saw him extract
the poison from some very deadly
ones. That was most interesting.
Everywhere we went we found the
people so friendly and they were all
so glad to do anything they could
for us. Wish I could tell yon all
about it but that would take too
much space.
This week we received notice from
our Girl Scout National Headquar
ters that we are to be at the service
of our Civilian Defense Council—we
are Senior Service Scouts and that
is one of our duties. We are glad of
this for we want to help.
Dear Reader, have you ever heard
the sweet sound of “Taps” being

Out of your pocketbook would have to come $1,500,000 every
year If beer and ale were ever prohibited again in South Carolina!
That $1,500,000, which South Carolina receives each year from
taxes on the legal sale of the beverage of moderation, is used to:
• Support the School Aid Fund.
• Pay part of the costs of government in cities
and towns of forty-six counties in the state.
YOU’D HAVE TO DIG DOWN DEEPER — IF BEER AND ALI
WERE NOT LEGAL!
Since beer came back to South Carolina, it has provided reve
nue of $5,000,000 to the state — and a million dollars a day in tax
receipts of all forms over the nation.
Legal, moderate beer helped create 3,500 jobs in South
Carolina, with annual payrolls of $3,000,000 — spent for food and
clothing and rent right in South Carolina. Beer has helped make
good business better.
These benefits, and the moderate beverage on which they are
built, are worth preserving. The South Carolina beer industry
pledges full cooperation to keep the places that sell beer as
wholesome as beer itself.
YOU CAN HELP! Just buy your beer in the reputable
licensed places; they’re by far the great majority.
Others should be reported to the responsible officials.

EVERY BUSINESS IN U. S.
PREPARES TO LICK AXIS
Washington, D. C., Jan. 12.—Every
business in the country is prepared
to do its bit in defeating the axis. It
is recognized here that industry is
not merely paying lip service to the
need for co-operation in the war ef
fort, but has actually rolled up both
sleeves as a demonstration with ap
propriate action of its willingness to
cooperate.
The aviation industry, which in
the peace time year of 1937 made a
little more than $100 million worth
of airplanes, expanded to an output
of about $1.6 billion last year. In
1942, aviation will join the industrial
giants with a production of more than
$3 billion.
The army and navy have called
for 4000 planes a month by next No
vember. That means almost doubling
the current rate of production.
Another illustration is the alumi
num industry. In 1937, this indus
try was concentrating on needs for
pots and pans, railroad trains and
automobiles. From a production of
less than 3000 million pounds that
year, its output jumped to 600 mil
lion pounds in 1941, airplane produc
ers the big customer.
This year, it is expevted that pro
duction will top 800 million pounds.
vice available to the nation’s rubber-
reclaiming industry.
What the machine does is save for
re-use the rubber surrounding the
wire “bead” used in all tire rims.
These wires are imbedded so firmly
that heretofore reclaimers have
found it practical to just cut off the
whole edge and throw it away—and
the loss aggregated about 17,000 tons
a year. The new machine slits the
rubber and 1 pulls out the wire with a
shearing action that leaves the rub
ber in good shape for reclaiming.
MRS. JANE DERRICK
Mrs. Jane Derrick, widow of Jul
ius P. Derrick and stepmother of J.
K. Derrick, • member of the house of
representatives from this county,
died suddenly Saturday night at the
home of Mr. Derrick in Little Moun
tain where she made her home.
She was affectionately known as
“Mama Jane.”
Funeral services were conducted
from Holy Trinity Lutheran church
at 3 o’clock Sunday afternoon, by
the Rev. E. Z. Pence, D. D.
Surviving are two stepsons, J. K.
Derrick of Little Mountain and Q«e.

AUSTRALIA SUPPLIES
War SINEWS
Almost overlooked in the first two
years of the war is the newly dev
eloped productive capacity of our
allies from down under—Australia.
In the brief space of 2 years, this
energetic nation has changed from a
land predbminantly interested in ag
riculture to a country making impor.
ant contibutions in war materials to
the far eastern fighting forces.
The exploits of the Australian sol
diers are too well known to need de
tailed explanation. Rough and tough
young men from Australia bore the
brunt of the German onslaughts in
Greece and Crete, and have fought
the nazi and facist war machines to
a standstill on the desert sands of
Libya.
On the home production front, thei*
courage and resourcefulness have
been no less marked. Starting al
most from scratch, they have built
up war industries that are playing,
and will continue to play, vital parts
in the fight against the dictators.
In the production of small arms
munition. Sir Alexander Roger, lead
er of the British ministry of supply
mission in the east, reports that
Australia may soon manufacture
more than England. A 3.7-inch anti
aircraft gun and a two-pound anti
tank gun are in mass production,
while heavier, mobile anti-tank gun
is expected soon to be rolling off
production lines in large numbers.
UNCOVERS VAST AMOUNT
OF FOREIGN OWNED STUFF
More than $200 million worth of
strategic war materials owned by
foreigners was uncovered by the U.
S. treasury’s census of alien-owned
property. .Some of the prope.-ty had
been hidden in warehouses and fac
tories by axis agents, and consisted
of aluminum, brass, automobile
parts, tools and machinery.

News
By ETHEL L. COUNTS
AH members of Home Demonstra
tion clubs want to do what they can
to help win the war. As farm
people our government is putting a
big responsibility on us—that of
raising plenty of food and feed. It
will not be long until we will be
ready to launch the plans we are
now making but in the meantime
there is other work to do. Has your
club done its share of Red Cross
sewing ? If not, get some today. Do
your part (which is as much as you
can possibly do) before gardening
takes all of our time. We must also
get in some First Aid Classes. Mt.
Pleasant Club is getting started with
the help of the boys at the quarry.
Silverstreet club is ready—just wait
ing for books.
The response for signing up for
Volunteer Civilian Defense has been
fine. When all Clubs have been con
tacted the figures will be given out.
(Garden Suggestions
Prepare hot beds for sowing seed.
Make plans—get your seed.
Plant English peas.
Put out more cabbage plants if
you haven’t enough.
Set strawberry plants.
Unless your hens have been treat
ed for lice and mites within six
months, they may be infested with
these harmful parasite*. This infes
tation may cause the loss of several
eggs per hen during the month which
greatly lowers the income per hen
during the season when eggs are
selling for good prices.
Lice stay on the birds at all times
and to destroy them the birds should
be treated with sodium fluoride dust
or by applying a nicotine sulphate
base compound to the perches one
-lour before the birds go to roost,
making sure that all birds get on
the perches and that another appli
cation is made within ten days to
destroy the lice from the eggs that
have hatched during this period.
Also nicotine sulphate compounds
give good results by individual treat
ment when one application is made
from a small can, placing a drop in
the fine feathers on the fluff, a drop
in the feathers under each wing, and
a drop -in the feathers on the back of
the neck. Thorough cleaning of the
house and spraying -with cresol spray
or some other effective method such
as used motor oils is necessary to get
the mites since they stay in the
house in the daytime hiding in con
cealed places, and infest the birds
mostly at night. The user motor oil
is easier to work with if diluted with
equal part of kerosene.
LONG LANE DEM. CLUB MEETS
The Long Lane club met Friday,
January 2 with eighteen members
present. The meeting was called to
order by the rice president Mrs. B.
H. Caldwell. The devotionals were
conducted by Mrs. R. C. Wilson
reading the 81st Psalm. The council
creed a nd pl a g Salute were given. The
club song “Onward Christian Sol
diers”, was sung.
The topic discussion for the month
was “Sweets”. Since it seems that
sugar will be hard to get, we must
try to find a substitute. Molasses
will be a good one. It can be used in
such recipes as gingerbread and
cookies. It will prove useful in many
more ways. »
Each member was given a paper
with thirteen ways we .in help de
fend our county, state, ana nation.
Each was asked to write down the
number we will do and sign it. This
is for volunteer work.
The hostesses Mrs. C. T. Cromer
and Mrs. Colie Cromer served am
brosia and crackers. Several games
of bingo were played Mrs. Howard

prizes. Our next meeting will be
