THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA 325 Butts County Men Now In Armed Service Of Nation THIS INCLUDES NATIONAL GUARD UNIT, SELECTEES AND VOLUNTEERS IN VARIOUS BRANCHES OF SERVICE According to information m the office of the Butts county selective service board, Butts county now has 325 men in service. This includes the national guard unit, called to duty when the national emergency was declared, selectees and volun teers in all branches of service. The exact number in the Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Air Corps, Na val Reserve is not immediately avail able, but the county has men in all branches of the armed service, serv ing in various parts of the continen tal United States and in foreign fields. The county has a potential man power of 1,467 in the three regis trations previously held, not includ ing Monday’s registration of those in the 45-65 age group. Several hundred additional names were add ed as a result of the April 27 regis tration, though it is not likey any of the registrants will be called for armed service. It now seems likely that man pow er will be needed more in the pres ent war than in that of 1914-18.

LET WANT ADS SELL FOR YOU THURSDAY, APRIL 30, 1942 SUGAR SAVERS To conserve sugar, Miss Lurline Collier, state home demonstration agent for the Georgia Extension Service, suggests making fewer pies, cakes, and sugar-rich desserts; using more fruits —fresh, canned, and dried; gradually reducing the quan tity of sugar in beverages, especially if the usual quantity leaves some un dissolved in the bottom of the cup; eating cereals with- little or no sugar, to savor their disitnctive flavors; serving any very sweet foods, like preserves, last —never before foods that are less sweet, because this con trast makes one want extra sugar.
