WAR BONDS ★ *1 Uncle Sam’s lighter 37-millimeter anti-tank guns are dubbed “tank killers." They are attached to the infantry, not the field artillery, and cost approximately $6,500 each. They have proved particularly effective in anti-tank warfare. jglip They are mobile, mounted on automobile tires and can be rapidly whisked from place to place. Your purchase of War Bonds will help pay the cost of these field pieces so necessary for our Army in this War. Join the Payroll Savings Plan at your office olfactory and let’s “Top that ten percent” by investing at least ten percent of your income in War Bonds. 5. Treasury Department

Wednesd’y Afternoon Club “May comes tripping o’er the meadow; May comes laughing o’er the hill; Loiters "neath the young leaves’ shadow; Plays beside the waters still.” Although inclement weather prevailed May 11th, club members trekked to the Ralph E. Thornburg home and enjoyed genial hospitality extended by Blanche and her cohostesses, Evelyn Gants, Edith Harley, Mary Hoy, Lucy Miles, Grace Slabaugh, Grace Macy, Margaret Pettit, and Estella Miles. Guests were invited to the dining room, where an attractive buffet table, centered with spring flowers and delectable food met the eyes of hungry guests. Each member found their respective place at small tables centered with May-time flowers and dainty place cards. A delicious luncheon was enjoyed, and everyone seemed happy and content. Appeasing our appetites Blanche Thornburg graciously introduced Edith Harley, who likewise stimulated our intellects by giving a book review. She presented “Who Walk Alone,” by Peter Burgess. The story of a Spanish-Ameri-can soldier who contracted leprosy and was not aware of the fact until nine years later. The lates in fascinating manner ho tv he conquered despondance and inaugurated many projects for lepers to occupy their minds and use physical strength to beautify their surroundings on the island. Leprosy sounds gruesome repulsive, but the story was gripping interesting and conveys a lesson in moral philosophy. Edith Harley presented her discourse in eloquent style and held the keen interest of her audience. Alice Clark, president, presideu during a short business meeting closing club activities for the fiscal year. Alice Hilbish, program chairman, gave out year books for the insuing year, after which the meeting adjourned, and reluctantly, members said a fond adieu. Best wishes for a pleasant summer and cheerio! —Esther Pracht. 51 JAP PLANES SHOT DOWN PAST WEEK Fifty-one Jap planes were shot down by U. S. forces during the week ending May 7th.
