Car Hita Culvert East Of This City—Seven People Injured Seven persons were injured, one seriously enough to be taken to a Sioux City hospital, when the car in which they were riding went out of control in a heavy rain Sunday morning between In man and O’Neill and hit a culvert south of the river bridge on high way 20. All occupants of the car except the driver Louis Waterman, were thrown through the top of the car. In the car besides Waterman were his brother, Lester; Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Fitchett and their two sons, Wilbur, 14 months, and Allen, 3 years, and Fitchett’s sister, Doris. The Waterman’s are sons of George Waterman of north of Orchard. The Fitchett’s work for John Deines on his ranch north east of Orchard. The group were returning from O’Neill. Fitchett was thrown 25 feet from the car into a barbed wire fence. He suffered chest and back injuries and a badly cut leg. The baby, only bruised and stun ned, was found ten feet from his father. The other child was also bruised and suffering from shock. Mrs. Fitchitt received a broken collar bone. Lester Waterman suffered a broken jaw bone; Louis, who was not thrown from the car, received a chest injury when the engine was pushed back into the front seat. Doris Fitchett’s shoulder was injured. All suffered bad bruises, lacerations and shock. The victims had no light, and were unable to find each other except by the fitful flashes of lightning. A car from Omaha came along, however, and took the injured to an O’Neill hospital. After they had received treatment the George Johnson home at Or chard was called, and Johnson drove up and brought the entire group to Orchard. Lester Water man was subsequently taken to a Sioux City hospital for treat ment of his broken jaw bone, but the rest returned to their homes. —Norfolk Daily News.

Listen to Morgenthau-Marshall Te Power of Payroll Savings! Washington, D. C.—How important is the average work er’s war bond purchases out of his pay every payday in the grand strategy of the Allied High Command? Does the George C. Marshall extent of his or her War Bond allotment have a part in determining when, where and the strength of our military blows? Any worker listening in on a recent conversation between General George C. Marshall, President Roosevelt’s Chief of Staff, and Secretary of the Treasury Hen ry Morgenthau, Jr., learned the answers to these questions. Said General Marshall: “Mr. Secretary, I want you to answer a question for me and to answer it with complete frankness. Can we military leaders plan to fight this war in an orderly way—in the surest and most effective manner—or mast we take extraordinary risks for fear the money will not hold _ out?” Replied Secretary Morgenthau: "General, the American public will take care of that. What they have done in the Second W»r Loan drive—the money they have produced and the spirit they have shown—is proof enough for me that they will not let our fighters suffer from lack of support until we achieve complete victory, no matter how long that may be nor how much it may cost.” Up your War Bond allotment out of Henry Morgenthau, Jr. your wages today. Figure it out for yourself how much above 10 per cent it should be. U. S. Treasury Department Mom “Sausages for breakfast! Sau sages for breakfast! I can smell ’em!” Small Joe came tumbling downstairs fastening the belt of his shorts as he came. He made a bee line for the kitchen. Pop was al ready sitting at the table, reading the paper, while Mom held the han dle of the frying-pan over the stove. Small Joe came close and sniffed the delicious smoke, wriggling all over with early-morning joy. _ “Better be thankful for them while you can still get them.” One glance at Mom’s face told small Joe this was one of her tight-lipped days. “Not a drop of coffee in the house, and no sugar left to put in it if there was. Some war!” Small Joe kept still. "Letter for you, son,” Pop said in his quiet voice. Small Joe made a leap for his place at table. There it was, a private personal letter for him alone, propped against his milk glass, “Hey, Pop! It’s from brother!” Small Joe was pulling the envelope apart and diving into the contents. “Hey, look what he sent me.” He passed over an oblong of thick, crinkly paper while he leaned over the sheet of writing-paper. “A twenty-five dollar War Bond,” Pop said slowly. Mom turned and looked at it over Pop’s shoulder, with the frying-pan in her hand. ‘‘Listen what he says. ‘How are you doing, kid? Hurry and grow up bo you can help me slap the Japs. Aren’t you most big enough to get into the Army? Here’s something for you in your name. Let’s the whole family gang up and help to win this war.’ ” Pop and Mom were silent. But small Joe didn’t notice that He was full of his letter and his War Bond. “Gee, Pop, in six years I could get into the Army, couldn’t I, Pop? Gee, Pop, I want to be a soldier like brother and fight in this war. Gee, isn’t that bond nifty? Look, it was issued in Honolulu. It’s mine.” But Pop was looking at Mom and Mom was looking at Pop. There were tears in Mom’s eyes. She shook her head sharply. Pop reached out and patted her hand gently. “Well, can’t let our soldier boy beat us to buying War Bonds, can we, old lady?” was all he said. She shook her head again. “I guess if he can give up his job and . . . and go off to war I can do some fighting back at home,” she said in a queer voice. Small Joe looked up at her in surprise. She saw him looking at her and spoke sharply. “Well, Joe. We're about ready to eat. Say grace.” Small Joe folded his hands and bent his head as he had been taught. “Oh Lord, we thank thee for this food and all thy bountiful gifts . . .” “Amen,” Pop said. “Amen,” Mom said. “Now eat your good sausages.” (Story from an actual report in the flies of the Treasury Depart ment.) * • * Amen: Say yes. Take your change In War Stamps. The least you can do Is the most you can buy in War Bonds. U. S. Treasury Department Joe Ryan of Chicago came Wed nesday to visit his father, J. B. Ryan, and other relatives and friends. _ Miss Elizabeth Davidson of Casper, Wyo., returned to her home Tuesday, after visiting her grandmothers, Mrs. R. R. Morri son and Mrs. James Davidson.

I’ll drop out for a while.” “Sorry, Phil, but I can’t today...I’m on my way up to the hospital to see how Frank’s wife is coming along. I just dropped by to give you the answer to that question you asked me about synthetic rubber yesterday in the barber shop. I looked it up and found out that the beverage distilling industry’s facilities for producing grain alcohol make it possible to include 200,000 tons of rubber from grain in the government’s 870,000 ton synthetic rubber program. “ I also verified the fact that no distiller is making whiskey today. They all stopped making whiskey last year and are working night and day, 7 days a week, producing war alcohol for the government...for smokeless powder, chemical warfare materials, medical supplies, as well as for synthetic rubber. It’s a mighty good thing these distilleries were in existence ready to do this important job.” _? i- .... . , , Conference of Alcoholic Beret age Industries. Inc.
