Cooperate   With   Government in Supplying
Vital Material
The Clare Sentinel today has joined
other weekly and daily newspapers of
the nation in a campaign to aid the
Government to "help solve the serious
pulpwood shortage situation. It is the
second time since Pearl Harbor that
the nation's newspapers nave been
called upon to overcome a serious war
material shortage.
Last Pall it was the Newspapers
United Scrap Metal Campaign. At
that time scores of steel mills faced
shutdowns for lack of vital materials.
"What the newspapers accomplished iu
that drive is history. The situation
was saved with more than 6,000,000
tons of precious metal collected.
Now it is the pulpwood campaign
and it is equally serious because Irun-
dreds of thousands of cords of the
nation's pulpwood are required for war
purposes.
The Victory Pulpwood Campaign
was initiated by the War Production
Board, with the cooperation of oflier
Federal Departments, war agencies
^and industry. It is designed to relieve
increasingly serious shortages in pulpwood, the raw material which makes
smokeless powder, rayon for par-
chutes, plastics for airplane partja,
shell and bomb casings and shipping
containers for ammunition, foods, supplies, blood plasma and other necessities for our armed forces and our
allies. *
The campaign to increase the production of pulpwood for the manufacture of products vitally necessary for
military needs overseas and for "home
front war uses, is addressed to farmers, woodland owners, forest laborers
and other available workers in the
three major pulpwood producing areas
of the South, Northeast and Lake
States, where manpower shortages
have developed because of the withdrawal of woodsmen for service in the
armed forces or other war work.
The growing seriousness of pulpwood shortages prompted Donald -Mv
Nelson, Chairman of the War Production Bo'ard, to issue the following appeal to farmers:
"■If every one of the more than
2,800,000 farmers in the 27 pulpwood
producing states were to devote three
extra days in 1943 to cutting pulpwood
we could overcomes the threatened
2,500,000-cord shortage with wood to
spare. I urge every American farmer
to get in touch with his nearest Department of Agriculture' representative
to find out whether he can be of service in the production of pulpwood. I,
of course, realize the increased war
load which our farmers are bearing
today, but the pulpwood situation is
serious enough to justify this call for
an extra effort."

Save Your Waste
Paper for Needed

Power Company Devotes Facilities To Cooperate In
War Effort
I
Michigan paper mills are facing a
shortage of waste paper according to
advice from John D. McGillis, chairman of the state salvage committee.
This may sound strangely iu the wake
of the market news on this material
during recent months. The mills have
gone through their stocks of scrap
paper on hand to the point that only
a few days supply is ahead of them at
present.
Packaging of war materials for shipment overseas requires great quantities of paper. Paper is now being
used in the manufacture of water
mains which are said to be durable
for 20 years service.
Cardboard cartons stripped and
packed into 50 lb. bundles are wanted
also newspapers and magazines which
should also be packed and tied securely in 50 4b. bundles for ease of handling.
Citizens with quantities of waste paper and wishing to dispose of it should
contact the Boy Scouts in the neigh- the
borhood. Boy Scouts are among the
the prize winning waste paper collectors.

Mrs, Paul J. Lentner
Clare Henry, of the Consumers Power Company district office at Alma,
spent considerable time in Clare the
fore part of the week erecting and
arranging one of the most unique window displays seen here in some time.
Though apparently simple from the
outward appearance, the display embodies a very complicated indirect
fluorescent lighting system which emulates natural sunlight in the farm
scene which the display is built a-
round.
This decorative window display is
not to attract prospective buyers of
electrical appliances, as the work of
Consumers Power Company window
artists was intended in pre-war days,
but in. line with the efforts of the company since "Pear Harbor," it carries
a war production appeal indicated by
a lone pitchfork in the foreground of
the display bearing a service flag as
the symbol of a farm worker who is
now serving in the armed forces of
his nation and our nation,
A single window card brings the
message more specifically to observers, with' the following wording: "Help
Farmer Harvest and Process
Crops. Apply to your local County
Agricultural Extension Agent or to the
United States Employment Service office for complete information."

Modern Molly Pitchers to
Be on the Job This
Saturday
Last Saturday The Molly Pitcher
girls made courtesy calls on about
half of the business places in Clare,
thanking the various heads'or people
in charge for their past support of the
bond program and asking them to buy
their August bonds and stamps at the
booth near the bank, where a gay yellow and green covered booth, built by
Dave Seiter to fit Art Damoth's umbrella and the Gulf Oil Company's dog
house seat, made a grand headquarters  for the modern Moliy Pitchers
The girls are continuing to call and
thank our people, telling them 'that
this is the close of the second war
loan drive and that we are now sounding the "Alert" for the third war loan
which" will start September 9th.
Last Saturday we were greatly aided by The Citizens State Bank and we
wish to thank Stuart Bicknell and
Theo. Wallington and Miss Tubbs and
Mrs. Spencer for their overtime work
in our behalf.
Let us say further that Louise's
Flower Shop will give corsage bouquets to all bond buyers next Saturday, August 14, that ar-e checked at the
booth.   Be sure to get yours.
Last Saturday nearly $3,000.00 in
bonds were sold at the local Molly
Pitcher booth and thus far over $100.-
00 in War Savings Stamps have been
sold there, with some making purchases who had never bought a stamp
before.
Much credit is due local executive
chairman. Mrs. Mabel Mulder, of the
War Finance Committee, and her
corps of Modern Molly Pitchers for the
success of the campaign in Clare.
Molly Pitcher Day was observed in
Harrison Saturday, with chairman Anna Joos assisted by Girl Scouts, Cub
Scouts and others, and $500 worth of
War Savings Bonds and Stamps were
sold.
Executive chairman Don Luce Was
in charge of ■ Molly Pitcher Day in
Farwell Saturday and $28l.2o" worth of
bonds were sold there.
The sale of bonds on this occasion
adds materially in the effort to reach
the August quota in Clare county and
the cooperation of all chairmen, "Molly Pitchers" and the purchasers of
bonds and stamps.is greatly appreciated.
t The Farwell school will open Tuesday, September 7th. Busses will
make their regular routes so as to
bring pupils in to enroll Tuesday at
1:00 o'clock. Every parent should
give the maximum effort to see that
their children are here for the initial
enrollment. If for some reason your
child cannot enroll upon that date you
should notify your Superintendent, by
mail or in person.
It is the plan of the local school to
cooperate to the fulJegl extent, consistent with sound educational policy
in aiding with the .*hortag3 of farm
labor. If your children are'urgently
needed in farm work have them plan
to work out a plan whereby they may
keep up their school work and aid in
the harvest.
Good wages and-a multitude of occupational opportunities may cause
some to desire to cease school and accept employment. Children should be
very careful to weigh this as they will
need the education very much in the
post war period. This is your opportunity for preparation to become constructive citizen in adult life. Don't
ruin your chances by not attending
school. Remember as yet the government has asked no children to leave
school unless it has been to join the
armed forces.
There will only be slight changes in
bus routes this year. You will be notified if your route is changed.
Re-decoration of the schoolhouse
and repair on the building and
grounds have been completed. Mr.
Allman and Mr. Foell state that they
will be ready for sqhool when it opens.
Juniors and Seniors will be given
the opportunity to elect shorthand a-
gain. this year.
In the absence of Mr. Pesick, it appears hat Mr. Grassman will act as
Agriculture teacher for the next year.
Mr. Mick intends to be in Farwell
continually until the opening of school.
All patrons with special problems are
invited to see him at the office.
The local Board of Education extends an invitation to the non-resident
students in our community area to
again attend our school. We have appreciated and enjoyed your wholehearted cooperation in the past and
look forward to further good relationship with you. As long as we serve
you, this school is your school, and we
want your advice to help us make it
a still better school.

will  open September 25, in order to	
give the hunters a week-end opening.
This is one day earlier than last year,
but the season also closes one day
earlier—on December 3. The possession limit on waterfowl was extended
from last year's limit of 30 days after
the close of the season to 45 days after
December 3 for this season.
State conservation department officials believe that this liberalization of
waterfowl regulations is the fulfillment
of the policy promised by Ira Gabriel-
son, chief of the Fish and Wildlife Service, that as soon as the depleting
waterfowl population increased in size,
the shooting regulations would be liberalized.
The federal regulations set the combined possession limit on coot and
sora rail at 25 for next season, whereas last year hunters were permitted to
have 25 of each.
The state conservation commission
at it's July meeting instructed the director of the conservation department
to proclaim, with one exception, the
federal rules as effective in Michigan,
as soon as they were announced by
the federal agency. The single ex
ception laid down by the commission
was that woodduck were to be protected in Michigan this year, although
federal regulations permit one woodduck in the daily bag.

To Be Used After

Edward F. Stegen, regional ration
ing executive, announced in Chicago
this week that plastic or glass "coins"
valued in ration points rather than
cents will be put into circulation he
ginning about January 1, as a supple^
ment to the present stamp system.
The tokens, red and blue in color,
will be manufactured in one and five
point units. The tokens will be given
to dealer to make change for stamps
of higher value.
Stegen also announced that War Ration . Book 3 would become effective
September 12.
Three persons were injured wlien
the automobile driven by Pat Wolf,
of Detroit, went out of control in loose
gravel on the Lake George Road northwest of Farwell, at about eight o'clock
Monday  evening, and overturned.
The Wolf's thirteen year old daughter, Dorothp Ann, suffered severe lacerations of the left ear which alniost
severed the member. ' Mrs. Wolf suffered a fractured rib, lacerations .jand
contusions and Mr. Wolf, laceratibns
and contusions. All were treated in
the offices of Dr. H. J. Ballard and released.
Jimmie  Tubbs   Injured
Jimmie, the twelve year old son of
Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Tubbs, of Wise
township, was painfully injured while
helping with threshing at about 10:00
o'clock Wednesday morning, when his
right hand became caught in the end
gate of a truck.
He was taken to the offices of Dr.
H. J. Ballard, where it was found necessary to take six stitches to close a
deep cut in the palm of his hand. He
is recovering satisfactorily.
Holders of "A" gas-ration books
may use their cars on vacation trips,
purchasing as much gasoline as their
ration books will permit, the OPA announced Saturday.
No additional gasoline will be allowed for vacation travel, it was pointed out.
"If you have an 'A' and also a 'B'
or 'C book, the announcement continued, you will probably not be
able to use your car to take a vacation trip of any length. You are
restricted to driving 90 miles a month
on the average, for pleasure and other
personal purposes and this allowance"
of mileage.would not permit a long
vacation trip."
Contrary to rumors, any holder of
an "A" ration book may cross state
lines and travel as the gasoline available to him on his book will take him.
Investigators who occasionally stop
motprij-ts .J"or Questioning have no
authority to revoke rations even if
they believe that a violation of the
regulations has been committed. Only
a motorists home-town ration board
may revoke his ration book for violation of speeding or other rules. The
board must notify the accused motorist at least three days in advance of
his hearing of its date, time and place,
and of'the specific charge filed against
him.
OPA investigators will be confined largely to checking license numbers of cars with "B" stickers, it was
pointed out. The license numbers will
be sent back to motorists' home ration
board and suspected violators will be
called in to explain any unusual circumstances.—Bay City Times.
