FRIDAY. MARCH 20. 1S42 PAGE THREE THE NEWBERRY BUN It Isn't the World—It's You You say the world is gloomy, The skies are grim and gray. The night has lost its quiet, You fear the coming day, The world is what you make it, The sky is gray or blue, Just as your soul may paint it; It isn’t the world—It’s you! Clear up the clouded vision. Clean out the foggy mind; The clouds are always passing, And each is silver lined. The world is what you make it, Then make it bright and true, And when you say it’s gloomy, It isn’t the world—it’s you! This very appropriate verse was contributed by Mrs. Flossie Crouch of the Chappells School faculty and also a member of the Vaughnville Home Demonstration Club. Dirt in your fingers Sun on your back—DIG FOR VICTORY. * Turn the good earth Sow the seed—PLANT FOR VIC TORY. Weed and water Rake and hoe—GROW FOR VIC TORY. Food builds courage higher Food makes work come easier Food brings victory nearer — GARDEN FOR VICTORY. BUT LET’S GARDEN WITH SENSE. Our Nation at war needs every ounce of food good soil and able hands can grow. But gardens in wartime need careful planning. We have no time, or seeds, or tools to spare for wasteful planting. If you live on a farm, you should have a garden. That’s one way you can make your family and our Na tion strong. Trucks, trains, and boats that do not have to work for you, bringing food from distant places, can do more work for others less fortunately fixed than you. If you live on the edge of town and have good land that you know how or can learn to work, you have a garden. The vegetables you raise can enrich your family’s meals. If you have gardened your land before and can extend your planting, so much the better. You can give your surplus to others whose meals are now too meager. If good land in your town or near your schools is lying idle, plan a community or school garden where many hands can make things grow, and children and many families share in the results. If you have special garden skills, put them to work for others. If you love the land but have no land to work, giv* your help to your neigh bor, your Dchool, of your commun ity to make their garden programs a success. Meals that have plenty of leafy vegetables, green vegetables, yellow vegetables, tomatoes, raw cabbage, and berries, are blue ribbon meals. They help you win top honors in vitamins that give you the vigor you need for Victory. (The above was taken from the “Consumers’ Guide”, a publication of the Department of Agriculture.)
