“IT'S THE WAR” iz a favorite alibi for the lack of many ci~ vilian goods and the decreased efficiency of many businessmen who serve the public. But the war isn't te blame for | everything that it gets blamed for today. These Is a lot of careless, sloppy service and lack of courtesy that could be avoided, even in wartime. The war is no excuse for dirty tablecloths and greasy silver in restaurants, for forgetting “Thank. you,” for broken promises about store deliveries. Nor is it an excuse for those who take your money to act as though they are doing

you a great favor. Yet, people who never did their jobs_any betier than they had to and who never bothered to be considerate, courteous, and obliging if they could gef by with being high-handed and indifferent, ask us to believe that the war is to blame for their shorte comings. 3
