LOCAL DRUGGIST
TO COLLECT OLD
TOOTH PASTE TUBES
The following circular letter was •
received this week by all Donalsonville !
Drug Stores. It is self ex-planatory '
and the people of this section are urg-:
ed to cooperate with them to the best
possible extent.
Mr. Retail Druggist—
While our soldiers and sailors and.
marines and airmen are fighting andi
dying to preserve our freedom and lo
abolish forever from the face cf the
earth the despicable slavery to which
the bloodv-handed dictators wish to
submit us and our children, vou and
we have a tremendous job to do here
at home —a job that can help our
fighting men —a job no true Ameri
can druggist will shirk.
Tin is a vital metal. It is vital for
certain parts of fighting ships, plan
es. signalling systems, for food con
tainers. The tubes in which tooth paste
shaving cream and similar products
are sold, are almost pure tin. There
are about 6.000 tons of these collap
sible metal tubes in the hands of the
public. And you are urged to help
gather them.
Between 12 and 15 of the largest
national radio hookups in the country
are telling the countless millions of
the public to save their collapsible me
tal tubes. By the time you put up the
enclosed card and window poster,
these programs will be telling the pub
lic to take their tubes to the drug
store.
All wholesalers’, retailers’ and chain
store associations are cooperating.

What may prove a boon to restaurant owners is the Army’s new
practice of issuing meal tickets instead of cash to soldiers for the
purchase of meals while traveling. These tickets allow a soldier to
spend a maximum of 75 cents a meal in restaurants and $1 a meal
in railroad dining cars—in many instances more than he would
'spend if he were paying cash.

larger than a currency note, are white and must be filled out by the

iTHE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA—
HOW TO RESPECT AND DISPLAY IT
I— When flags of states or
( cities or pennants of societies are
, flown on the same halyard with
I the flag of the United States of
America, the latter should al
>ways be at the peak. When
flown from adjacent staffs the
’ flag of the United States should
be hoisted first and lowered last.
2 When displayed with an-
! other flag against a wall from
crossed staffs, the Flag of the
United States should be on the
right (the flag’s own right), and
its staff should be in front of
the staff of the other flag.
I 3 When used on a speaker’s
platform, whether indoors or out,
the flag should never be reduced
to the role of a mere decoration
by being tied into knots or
draped over the stand. For this
purpose bunting should be used.
The flag, if displayed, should be
. either on a stall or secured to the
wall or back curtain behind the
speaker with the union to the
fl: t ' hr
4 When flags of two or
more nations are displayed to
gether they should be flown from
separate staffs of the same height
and the flags should be of ap
proximately equal size.
5 ■ When the flag is dis
played in a manner other than
by being flown from a staff, it
should be displayed flat, whether
indoors or out. When displayed
either horizontally or vertically
against a wall, the union should
be uppermost and to the flag’s
own right, that is, to the ob
server’s left.
6 Whenever a number of
flags of states or cities or pen
nants of societies are to be ar
ranged in a group and displayed
from staffs with the flag of the
United States the latter should
be placed at the center of that
group and on a staff slightly
higher than any of the others.
7 When the flag is displayed
the body of the church it
for a meal, he fills in a few blanks and mails the ticket to the
finance officer at the post from which the soldier traveled. When
the meal tickets are received by the finance officer, they are given
immediate attention and checks for the full amount are sent at
once.
Now that the United States is at war, more and more of these
meal tickets will be used. Restaurant operators who wish to share
in the task of feeding the soldiers will acquaint themselves with the
new meal tickets and be prepared to honor them.
should be from a staff placed in
the position of honor at the con
gregation’s right as they face
the clergyman. The service flag,
the state flag or other flag should
be at the left of the congrega
tion. If in the chancel or on’ the
platform, the flag of the United
States should be placed on the
clergyman’s right as he faces the
congregation and the other flags
at his left.
8 When the flag is displayed
from a staff projecting horizon
tally cr at an angle from the
window sill, balcony or front of
a building, the union of the flag
should go to the peak cf the staff
(unless the flag is to be displayed
at half-staff).
9 Whenever the flag of the
United States is carried in a pro
cession in company with other
(lags, it shcuhl cccispy a
in front of the center <>f the line
of fags or on the right of tisc
rm-■ hing line.
