Sugar Coupons No Expiry' Date Rumors that preserves coupons de. clamed valid for the puichase of canning sugar would expire August 31 were declared "absolutely without foundation" by W. Harold McPhillips, prices and supply representative, yesterday. During the past few days a large number of complaints and inquiries have been received at the ration office from housewives who state their dealers are urging them, to cash all their canning sugar coupons immediately! because they would be useless after August 31. "Instead of cashing the canning sugar coupons at once d would urge housewives to plan their preserving and canning program for the balance of the season and spend their sugar coupons accordingly," Mr. McPhillips said. It is understood that the reports of .the cancellation of canning sugar coupons at the end. of the month were the result of the fact that butter coupons 90 to 115 expire August 31, However, these are the only coupons with an expiry date. Sugar and pre- serves coupons at the • present time have no expiry date. 0 • IN SHADOW LAND, ' In Shadow Land, in Shadow Land, The world is very flat, The people there are tall and thin And never, never fat;. They always walk along the ground, And never up like us— I really think that Shadow folk Are most ridiculous. In Shadow Land, In Shadow Land, •The`honSes always lean, And there no lights in house or street Are ever to be seen; No little paths with garden gates, No little stairs or floors, For Shadow folk run up their walls, And creep beneath their doors. In Shadow Land, In Shadow Land; You never hear a sound; No birds are whistling overhead, No footsteps stir the ground; Oh, when I see it all like this I•cannot understand How even Shadow folk can go And live in Shadow Land. Elizbeth Fleming HE'D LIKE TO KNOW YOU 1/11 The service you receive from your bank is rendered so quietly and effi- ciently that the human values behind it may not have occurred to you. Think, for instance, of the confidence you rest in your branch bank, manager, perhaps without even knowing him well personally. You ought to know 1i.itn better. By deposit. ing your money in his branch, you made him and his staif the custodians of your account and the transactions relating to it. You hold him in high trust, knowing that your private affairs will be kept private. You will fru your bank manager a trained man who has come up through the ranks,, and who will be glad to discuss your financial needs with you and to inform you as to the appropriate service his bank can render. Should you desire a personal loan to meet some unexpected expense, talk it over with him, You can depend on receiving courteous', understanding and friendly consideration. Small loans are just one of the services your bank provides. You may be surprised to learn of many other services available for your use.

She must know the 'validity and expiry dates of butter, sugar, preserves and, later, meat coupons so that she can hake supplies of these foods last. She must know the coupon values of all rationed preserves and meats. She has to understand the sugar alternative of the preserves coupon in order to do as much home canning as possible and still have coupons for honey, syrups and other preserves. She must guard family ration books carefully and give up coupons for every put. chase she makes of a rationed food. RATIONING is your assurance of a fair share. It is a protection against waste . shortage ... inflation. That is why farmers are asked to continue to collect and turn in coutions to their Local Ration Boards - once a month - in the RB -61 envelope. RATION ADMINISTRATION Fall Fair Dates .
