Clothing Needed
For Liberated
Warring Countries
"Recent Allied military suc-
cesses bring renewed hope for
the rapid liberation of countries
of Europe. Following liberation,
the United Nations face the
great task of relief. With the ap-
proach of winter, the need for
clothing for victims of war be-
comes one of the most pressing
problems confronting UNRRA
(United Nations Relief and Re-
habilitation Administration).
Sweetwater churches are co-
operating 100 per cent with the
religious communities of Amer-
ica. All creeds and faiths will
take part in an effort to collect
clothing for distribution where
needed.
Throughout war-torn areas
clothing is very scarce or thread-
bare and worn out. Because of
the demands of armed forces and
civilian needs, manufacture of
clothing in the United States or
other countries to relieve these
distressed people will not get
under way for some time. This
means the needy men, women,
and children in liberated coun-
tries must greatly depend on the
help of the American people.
While some collections of
clothing have already been
made by private organizations
for particular countries, UNRRA
must have a supply of clothing
which can be sent to any liber-
ated country where need is
great.
The week beginning Sept. 21
has been designated as the week
in which the different groups
and organizations will cooperate
in this emergency clothing col-
lection effort."
In order to carry out this plan
efficiently, and in cooperation
with this Nation-Wide campaign
in th elfoly Family Parish, the
following points must be ob-
served:
All types of useful wearable
garments. Outerwear should be
cleaned (not dry cleaned). Un-
dergarents and all types of cot-
ton garments should be washed
before contributed.
In addition to practical cloth-
ing, blankets, sheets, pillow-
cases, quilts, etc.. are needed.
Bring the clothing to the Sac-
risty room adjoining the churcn
not later than Thursday, Sept.
28.
A group of ladies of the Parish
will sort and box clothing ac-
cording to the instructions given
by UNRRA and NCWC, (Any
clothing not considered fit to be
sent to Europe will be disposed
of in a Rummage Sale). At least
one garment per parishoner is
our goal said .1. M. Ballarin, C.

Public Warning!
BEWARE OF
PIN-WORMS
■War-tirm* living conditions may be tba
cauBe of spreading Pin-Worm infection.
Scientific report# in many communities
have shown at lcaat one-third of the ex-
amined children and grown-ups to be vic-
tims of Pin-Worms—often without know-
ing what was wrong!
Wutch out for the warning signs that
may mean Pin-Worms in your child or
yourself; the tormentinpr, embarrassing
rectal itch, the uneasy stomach* bed-wet-
ting, nervous fidgeting, finicky appetite.
New Discovery Hailed By Doctors
After centuries of distress caused by Pin-
Worms. a new and highly effective way to
deal with this stubborn pest has recently
been discovered. This scientific discovery*
bailed by medical authorities, is a remark-
able drop (Kentian violet). It is the vital
element in P-W, the new Pin-Worm treat-
ment developed by the laboratories of Dr.
D. Jaynn A Son. America's leading special-
ists in worm medicines. P-W tablets are
email and easy to take, and they act in
n special way to destroy the creatores.
So don't take chances with Pin-Worms.
At the first warning sign, ask your drug-
gist for P-W. end follow the directions.

By their sensational breakthrough near Sedan, Germans in 1940
demonstrated to the world the uselessness of "wall" fortifica-
tions such as France's vaunted Maginot Line. They simply flanked
it with an end run and poured down behind the line, leaving the
French looking pretty silly, with their big guns all pointed the
wrong way. Only ones who didn't seem to learn the lesson were
the Germans themselves, who put their faith in the Siegfried Line
and the Rhine fortifications, only to have the Allies flank them
near Kleve, and get into position for an end run drive behind the
fortified lines into the great Ruhr Valley industrial area Map
above shows similarity of German operation against Maginot
Line and how Allies worked same trick on them.
