'Says the announcement: "Head- .quarters regrets that such a delay in the distribution was necessary, but it must be remembered that these are days of stress and strain and the arm bands had to wait tueir turn in the production schedule." The gold wings, mounted .on a white circle with a royal blue arm band, make a fitting badge of honor for observers, and had they been available when the Port St. Joe post was set up there would. have been little trouble in signing up observers. Chief Observer W. S. Smith has IN DENTAL CORPS James L. Wood, brother of Mrs. Jimmie Kilbourne of this city, who is stationed at Camtp Bland- ing, a member of the Dental Corps.

Tower Small Crowd Turns Out for Event Postponed Week On Ac- count of Rain A very small crowd turned out Sunday for the flag raising cere- :iony held Sunday afternoon at the Air Warning Service observa- tion tower by the Port St. Joe L[iwanis club. The event had been postponed a week due to inclem- ent weather, and it is believed that had not this been the case a large number of interested specta- tors would have 'been on hand. The program, which was in charge of Dr. J. R. Norton, presi- dent of thie Kiwanis club, was opened by the assemblage singing "America," followed with player by Rev. 0. D. Langston. George Snowden, district super- visor for the A. W. S., gave a '"rief talk on the A. 'W. S., stress- ing the fact that the army calls the service the first line of de- fense in case of an enemy invasion and that volunteer observers are practically "in the army" and that they are governed by army regu- lations. 'M. P. Tomlinson spoke on "The Origin of Our Flag As An Emblem of Democracy," telling when and how our flag was born and the origin and reason for flags of any type. He was followed, by Larry Evans, Wh.6 gave 'a '"lni t'retirn discourse on "The Origin o~ thie Swastika," tracing it back to prim- itive man. The flag was then raised to the staff atop the tower by members of the American Legion post while Billy Wallace played "To the Colors." Rev. Langston then 'ex- plained the courtesies due the flag, those present sang "The Star Spangled Banner" and the cere- mony ended by Miss Marigenle Smith singing. "God Bless Amer- ica." -------- - USO DRIVE EXPECTED TO CLOSE NEXT WEEK It was stated yesterday by Rob- ert Bellwos, chairman of the drive for USO funds in this city, that $165.60 of the $180 quota ld iben collected and that he expected the di-ive to be completed early next week.

Hire Draft Takes Largest Quota From County Thirty Registrants Called to Duty; 1-B Registrants Are Up for Reclassification Gulf county .felt the full meaning of the nation's call for .increas- ingly larger numbers of men to fill its Selective Service army last Friday when 30 white registrants -the largest quota yet assigned to the county-left for Camp Bland- ing for induction. The new quota is in line with a general speedup in Selective Service inductions and is unofficially considered an indication ,of the size of future quotas. Those .going to Blanding were Noah D. Allen, Harold M. Arm- strong, James R. Brann, Daniel I, Creech, Charles F. Causey, Her- bert Dykes, Nathan Dykes, Carl Glass, Oscar W. Goodwin, Thos. Hogan, Charles A. Herring,-James L. King, Leo Kennedy, James W. Morris, Walter D. Nelson, Robert Nelson, J. F. Pitts, Francis Por- ter, Thomas S. Prescott, Hines R. Richards, Dewey H. Reeves, Henry B. Raiford, Brinson W.

As the group of selectees pre- pared to board; the bus -they were presented ciia t igalets i.U oe ' in-: gumr b.yi a delegation from the' Port St. Joe Kiwanis club. As the, local -board neared the end of its list of available 1-A registrants, the Selective .Service System last week ordered 1-B men, those now deferred because of minor physical ailments, re- classified for service unless to- tally unfit. Under the new order, present 1-B men will be sent to local ex- amining physicians and if found fit for any form of military serv- ice will be placed in 1-A and in- ducted with regular quotas. Those unfit for service will be placed in 4-F, permanently deferred because of the. disability. All indications point to the call- ing of married men without chil- dren shortly, and at the present rate -married mien with children probably will not be ordered for induction for several months. The first married men to be called for service will be registrants who married when their induction was imminent-at a time when they were tentatively classified as 1-A or soon were to be ordered for physical examinations. Reclassification :of men now It the 1-B group is scheduled to start September 1 and end by Janiary 1, 1943. AIR FORCE WILL USE CCC CAMP NEAR WEWA Word comes from Congressman Lex Green that the war depart- ment has informed him that the CCC camp near Wewahitchka would be taken over for use of the Army Air Force.

With the "'They say-" rumors of a thou- sand sorts being repeated over and over- growing worse with every repetition (and we heard a couple right here in Port St. Joe this week), many otherwise good Americans get the jitters and unwittingly become fifth columnists. Loose talk of every sort, from wild criticism of the president to bragging where-your son is now stationed; or defeatist criticism that the 24-hour-a-day Air Warn- ing Service is a waste of time, reaches ears you little dream of. One of Hitler's shrewdest bits of propaganda is to encourage people In all enemy countries to stand aside from all war effort and criticise everything. Do you who read this co operate whole- heartedly in the local Civilian Defense pro- gram? Do you report promptly on the hour for your watch in the observation tower?. Have you volunteered as a truck or am- bulance, river? If you are a member of either the auxiliary police or the fire fighting group, do you keep brushed up on your duties? Are you willing to get out with a pick or shovel and work to repair bombed roads? Any or all of these activities may be thrust on us, as a community, at any moment. Have we here in Port St. Joe and Gulf county got what it takes? Or will we all hight-tail into ,some neighboring community and add to the confusion and loss? Let's step aside for a little while with our self, and soberly and earnestly think on some of those things. Then, whatever conclusion we reach, have the manhood or the woman- hood to "get into the collar" and pull the full weight of the load we know we should. PAINT BRUSH, HARD TO REPLACE, SHOULD NOW RECEIVE BEST OF CARE If you plan to paint and, find the old brush you put away in a can of watr has dried out stiff as a board-don't throw it away, not unless the bristles are broken. You might have difficulty these days in .buying a new one. The .brush may be reclaimed by soaking it overnight in paint WE SALUTE OUR SCHOOLS And the Spirit of Their Teachers With the immediate problems of war re- quiring our every attention, we turn, more than ever this year, to our schools for .help! Theirs is the job of moulding America's fu- ture theirs the training which must maintain the peace to come. In a few short days the young people of Gulf county will return to their classrooms. There they will learn that Justice is more than an empty word that Truth cannot be conquered that the Freedom which their forefathers died to achieve Is based upon ideals which must guide their lives. We salute the schools of Gulf county and the spirit of their teachers! Under their guidance, we place our children that bur sons and daughters may develop the character, strength and courage which will make them the rightful heirs to a Heritage of Freedom! HAVE YOU GOT YOUR CAR 5TAMP? There are probably quite a number of Gulf county people who haven't yet secured their "use" stamp for their cars, and if they haven't, they'd better go to the postoffice right now and plunk down $5, for the gov- ernment seems to have decided that motor- ists have had enough time to get their little red stickers, and now a campaign is getting under way to enforce the act. Already re- ports of arrests are coming in, and that is showing some results because stamp sales are beginning to increase in cities where they were lagging. When the "stamp act" was passed, it was predicted that it wouldn't be very popular with already over-taxed vehicle owners, but to congress it seemed a good way to raise additional and badly needed revenue, and it probably will be continued after the war is over. Many vehicle owners complied with the law by purchasing their stamps. Other motorists simply ignored the law and did not purchase stamps. During the period ending June 30, no great effort was made to enforce the act, but apparently from now on it's go- ing to be a different story, and motorists without stamps may find themselves facing federal charges. Whether a woman can. see a joke or not, she often marries one. "If life wasn't full of trials, where would the lawyers be? Keep smiling-and buy War Bonds! moisture will make it lifeless. When a brush is/ in use every day, fill it with paint and wrap it overnight in several thicknesses of paper or suspend it in a can of water. If used intermittently, it may be suspended in raw lin- seed oil or kerosene; if stored in turpentine, the brush is likely to become hard. Never let the brush rest on the ends of the bristles more than a few hours, or it. will become warped and the flow of paint will be uneven. Bore a hole thinner, or if not too hard, in tur- near the end of the handle and pentine or gasoline. After the old suspend the brush in the paint on paint has -softened, scrape it off with a putty knife or comb it out with a steel comb or brush. Re- peat th'e treatment if the first soaking fails to remove all the paint. After cleaning out the worst of the accumulation, wash the brush in warm water with a mild laun- dry soap-never with strong soap. Thorough scrubbing is important. Shake out excess water and let brush diry in the air. Straighten out the bristles with a scrub brush or comb before drying is-com- plete. Then wrap the brush--not too tightly-in heavy paper to keep the bristles straight. If the brush is dipped in paint again be- fore being fully dried, the trapped a rod or wire resting across the 'op edgs of the can so the bristles do not touch the bottom. When through .painting, clean .the brush, dryi thoroughly and, store with bristles straight. Attend Wedding Mr. and -Mrs. Paul S.
