RETURN OF THE RUSSIAN
only bleak ruins remain to greet him as a soldier of the Red Army returns to his home in town
retaken from the Nazis. This dramatic picture is from the March of. Time's "One Day of War," tloeu-
mentary filen of a single day on the many fronts of Russia as filmed by 160 Soviet soldier -photographers,
Have You Heard?
The reporter limped in.
"Well," said the news editor,
"did you get the interview?"
The reporter pointed tc a pair
of black eyes.
"We can't print a pair of black
eyes. Where's the story?"
The reporter lifted his hat and
displayed a huge bump on his
head,
"Look," he repeated.
"What good is that? We can't
print things like that. Didn't you
get the chap to say a few wards?"
"Yes," was the reply, "but you
ean't print those either!"
Man (employed by an
Aberdonian) : "I have been
here ten years, sir, doing
three men's work for one
man's money, and now I
want a raise,"

that, but if ye'lt tell me the
lad replied unthinkingly:
"Yes, sir, very!"
"Who was that you were
talking to for a whole hour
at the gate?" asked Mr.
Simpson.
"That was Mrs. Smith; she
hadn't time to come in," re-
plied his wife,
Buckwheat
The reason for giving the name
buckwheat to the grain from
which buckwheat flour is made is
very simple, says the Fort Wil-
liam Times -Journal. The buck-
wheat grain, while very mrch
smaller, is of the same triangllar
color as a beech nut and naturally
was called bockwheat or beak -
wheat at first. Time works its
changes on language as on every-
thing else and so today this beech-
wheat is called buckwheat,
HORSEBURGERS ON THE HOOF
Headed for butcher shops to helprelieve wartime neat shortage
are these ex -farm horses in pen at stherville, la., stockyards,
names of the ither twa men
I'll sack 'em."
When the threat of invasion
was at its height and all signposts
had been removed, a motorist
stopped a eouniner yokel and en-
quired of him the way to a cer-
tain village.
The yokel, pointing the direc-
tion, replied: "That were the way
before the war, but I b'aint be
:elfin' anybody now."
At the end of a lessen in
general knowledge the teach-
er asked if any member of
the class could tell her what
he knew about Lord Wool-
ton.
One boy got -up. "He's the
bloke what tells us to eat
less of what we ain't got
none of."
Little Boy: "I met Mr. Jones
in the street going to school, and
he said he wanted to see papa
about something, and he called
papa .a walking encyclopedia."
Mamma: "Indeedl And what
did my Itttle pet say to Mr.
•ones ?"
Little Bey: "I called him an old
• eenti3 edti and threw a snowball
at hint."
"Hey, Mom," exclaimed
the little boy, tugging at his
mother's hand, "isn't that
monkey just like Uncle
James?".
"Hush!" said his mother.
"Don't be to rudel"
"Ah; the monkey didn't
hear me, Mom!"

PARACHUTES OF GLASS
Army bombers are using para-
chutes made of woven glass fib-
res to. drop million caudle power
flares.
The glass chute is blackened
with graphite to shield the air-
men's
irmen's eyes against the glare„
This chute has to stand the in-
tense
ntense heat of the million candle
power flares and, although the
glass fibres are almost as fine and
light as silk, they can stand a
temperature that would soften
iron.
Many other uses of fibre glass
are secret. But a dozen are listed
which are not secret. On the sea
coast, fibre glass goods are used
in camouflage to stand extreme
moisture.
The Navy is using the fibre to
coat one side of insulating boards
used in warships' interiors. This
has freed enough aluminum to
make 200 four -motored bombers,
as the glass replaces an insulating
material that had to be sheathed
with aluminum,
The signal corps uses field tele-
phone cable made with 'woven
glass, replacing metal and lighten-
ing the weight. Ships and planes
are using all sorts of cables cove
ered with gfass cloth, sometimes
pure woven glass, sometimes mix-
ed or impregnated with other Ma-
terials.
Planes use the glass cloth for
insulation against cold. The glass
makes warmer Arniy barracks,
The prize exhibit is the tent work-
shops used in the Arctic, where
glass insulation has reduced the
bulkiness of the structural mater-
ials
aterials by '75 to 80 per cent.

the paint with which it is mixed
dry quickly. This is turpentine
that has been exposed to the air
and sunlight.
Q, How can X give a shining
appearance to cake icing?
A, If butter is an ingredient in
the icing for the cake, ice the
cake and then put it in the oven
for a few minutes with the door
open. The frosting will have' n
smooth, shiny appearance.
Q. Hoiv can I clean steel which
has become very rusty?
A. First rub with a out onion.
and leave for a day. Then polish
it with paraffin or turpentine and.
brick dust whichever you happen
to have on hand.
Q. What can I use as a sub-
stitute when wax is not available
for a- floor that is to be used for
dancing?
A. Powdered borax may be
used, and will prove a good sub-
stitute.
Q. How shouldsalad dressing be"
served?
A. If possible, serve the dress-
ing separately and let the guests
help themselves. Not only does
the lettuce wilt after the dress-
ing has been on it for any length
of time, but people have so many
different ideas in regard to salad
dressing.
The Calm Courage
Of Women At War
A naval officer had gone down
from Portsmouth to London with
an important message to deliver
without delay to the captain of
a warship, relates the Windsor
Star. He was to be picked up
at the quay by •a motorboat and
taken to the warship.
Coincident with the arrival of
the naval officer at the base came
a blitz. As he took shelter in a
porch, the naval man heard the
familiar put -put -put of a motor,
boat. Steered and manned by
Wrens, the little craft nosed its
way to the landing.
Saluting as meticulously as
though on a parade ground, in-
stead of in a blitz, the Wren in
charge reported to the officer.
The girls took him out to the
warship, waited for him and
brought him back right through
the worst of the business. The
Wrens took the duty in stride,
never worrying about bombs or
danger.
Copper, gold, ivory, tin, • dia-
monds and palm oil are all found
iu quantity in the Belgian Congo.

Even Mother Goose
Rhyme Goes `Plastic'
Plastic playing cards now, and
plastic hair brushes; the new
baby next door sleeps in a plastic
bassinet; we shall ride in plastic
cars when and if we .ride again,
and Mother Goose is due for re-
vision,
There was a plastic man,
In a nabby plastic tile.
He found a plastic nickel
Beside a plastic stile.
His plastic -loving Wife,
She wore a plastic blouse,
And they both lived happy
In a little plastic house.
Plastics are said to date from
1868, when a printer made a bil-
liard ball out of gum camphor
and cellulose nitrate. It was as
good as ivorp in every respect
but one. In collision with an-
other ball it exploded. — New

3,400,000 Murdered
By Huns In Europe
The Inter -Allied Committee
said recently that, on the basis of
persons had been murdered in oc-
cupied Europe.
"The figures are mostly Ger-
man.
erman so the extent of the toll of
human life and suffering is only
partially revealed," the commit-
tee said. "Deaths at the hands of
Gestapo agents are never reveal-
ed and accurate information Is
difficult to obtain."
The committee said 2,500,000
persons had been executed or had
died in Polish concentration
camps, and 744,000 had been exe-
cuted in Yugoslavia,
Other totals include:. France,
24,000; Greece, 18,000; .Czecho-
.Slovakia, 2,463; Netherlands,
2,200; Belgium, 198; Norway,
• 140 and Luxembourg, 129.
The figures do not include vie -
tines of towns such as Lidice,
Czecho-Slovakia and others in
Yugoslavia and Greece which
were wiped out in reprisal for sab-
otage or resistance.
Reindeer Meat To
Help Out Rations
Gam* and other delights of the
gourmet are helping to solve the
food problem. One piece of good
fortune is the surplus of reindeer
on Nunivak Island, off the coast
of Alaska. From fewer than 201
animals the herd has increased.
in twenty five years to an esti-
mated 19,000, with bro'vvse enough
to support only about 10,000 re-
ported to be available.
All buck fawns of the 1943:
crop and surplus adults are to be
killed and the meat supplied to•
the armed forces and civilians.
Elk present a similar picture.
In United States national parks
they are protected. During the
present winter, co-operation of
state and national agencies, fa-
vored by weather and other fac-
tors, has made possible a total
reduction to 7,230 elk. The meat
of the killed animals was conusm-
ed by the Indians and residents
of Montana.
Although many different diee,
lects are spoken in China, the
written language is the same in
all ,sections.
