It jvasn't Mrs. Phyllis Turner's good looks that made me deal with Oils and Fats in the second article, but its tremendous importance emphasized by the fact that despite Goeibbels' propaganda of synthetic procurement in Germany, she declares that is mostly bunk. The supply both here and there must depend on agriculture whaling and fishing. Germany's economic fat plan was the original basis for their universal system of a state-controlled agriculture, industry and commerce. Recovery of waste and garbage fats in the households there is mandatory. Think that over, housewives of Canada, when they ap- peal to you to avoid unnecessary us- age and waste of oils and fats. The picture is so simple, folks. Fats and vegetable oils are our only source of glycerine for explosives, medicines, lotions, etc. cigarettes when available. The average yield from fats is 10 to 13%.

Why Billions Are Needed "Why control fats when the U.S.A increased its production two billion pounds last year?' 1 I asked Mrs. Tur- ner to show that I read Time and the Ottawa papers. With that restful and patient smile she asked me, "Did you know that the U.S.A. consumed 11 billion Ibs. last year; that a billion was cut off from the Far East, ant furthermore what assurance have any of us that this year's crop will give high yields as last?"

Jennings proudly goes to school! their whole job so closely af- fects the household. B. H. Sanders is practical because she said, "The war hasn't started to hurt us yet. It likely will." Price checking is one of the big: jobs of the division, but she feels in this that honest retailers des- erve protection from those who might not be. She wants women to co-oper- ate with her. These liaison officers in all towns are the link to do it. "The Consumers Board is set up to represent all you people," and here we quote her exact expression which reflects the energy and determination f this woman, "So for Pete's ?ake jse it. If anything is wrong send it o your nearest committee. I went out past a battery of fe- nale operated typewriters in high gear.

Now with the children able to help with the housework, she had applied for the post of school teacher . . . and had been accepted. But that meant she needed suitable clothes and clothes cost money. She took her problem to the manager of her bank. On the strength of her ability and character, he arranged a loan of $80. And so it was that she was able to take the position and greet her first class proudly. She paid off the loan after six months at a cost in interest of only $2.40. This is a true story. Only the name has been altered. It is typical of hundreds of human dramas in which the bank manager has been privileged to play a helping role. Hfiwton 73. Williams 48, Al- <'<'**>' mpda Tyler 42.
