Colorful Cookie Box

away and the walls pushed back
to add space.

wide. It will hold a number of small things
or you can make a wooden cookie box for
it J*ke the one shown here.

Disaster
fighters
Few Americans real
ize that the protection of thou
sands of lives and billions of
dollars’ worth of property rests
in the hands of the peacetime
Regular Army.
Army Engineers are con
stantly at work along our great
rivers, building dams and
levees, dredging channels and
using the latest scientific meth
ods to control flood waters.
And when the rivers burst their
bonds, those same Engineers
are ready to battle night and
day, raising sandbag barriers
and rescuing flood victims.
Many of the nation’s finest
young men are joining the Reg
ular Army, knowing that they
will have an opportunity to
work with the most modem
equipment and do a construc
tive job, of utmost value to
their country.
