Janey closed the bedroom door and locked it. Alone at last. She threw back her head and heaved a deep sigh. Then she peeked out ot the corner of her eye at the mirror to see whether she ready did look like Hedy LaMarr. Quite a lot, she decided. And now to business. She drew forth from the bottom of her top bureau drawer the sheet of pink writ-ing-paper and the envelope that she had been saving for this day. She sat down at the table by the wmdow and dipped the pen into the bottle of green ink that her

sister Rose was such a pig about. She wrote, with beautiful arabesques, “Dear Mr. Morgenthau, and held her head back to admire this effort of the best

pupil in penmanship class. "Here are my stamps for a bond. $18.75. I started last Christmas when I got $3.00. Not counting 50 cents, I have earned all the rest working one or more days a week at a local grocery store, and I’m quite proud to say I worked hard to get it." Janey stared out of the Window at Peterson’s house and beyond at the big yard where the kids were playing football. She held her pen elegantly in air. “Sitting here looking out the window, I see a peaceful little town, and I wonder how the world can be in such a turmoil and the people of this world can have such hate for their fellow men. So I’m proud to send these stamps because I know I'm helping to make the whole world peaceful again like our little town. She signed her name with an important flourish, not forgetting a conspicuous “Miss” in front of the “Janey” After she had sealed the letter she went on staring out of the window. It really was awfully peaceful Overhead she heard a plane go humming by through the sunny afternoon air. Then the voice of her best friend, Betty, called from outside— "Janey!” In an instant Janey was on her feet and tearing downstairs and out. She was not Hedy LaMarr nor a deep philosopher any more, but exactly twelve years old. (Letter from an actual cammunication in the files of the Treasury

VICTORY BLOCKS

may be produced like those from last winter, but let’s be more accurate about size. Different sizes do not fit together, They should be twelve inches square—accurate; or better still, they can be made in one piece. If one does not care to complete an entire afghan, neighbors or friends can pass the garment around until finished. Since our government is calling for old silk hosiery, we will use cotton hose, sox and anklets. Cut round and round the stocking, varying width of Strip according to texture, just wide enough to make a good cord, and stretch firmly until it becomes a round thread. Tight winding will usually produce, this result. Cotton works much faster than silk. Cuts in longer lengths, does net need processing, crochets twice as fast. See sample at my shop.
