/ery good one.
The O.’.V.I, says that farmers will
be allowed sufficient gasoline to
, operate with,in the Nohth- West
States but that it will be. of a
poorer grade than formerly, becrxise
the ingredients needed to step the
■ -gas up, are scarce, high-octane
will not be as high as usual.
The War Food Adminstration says
that fertilizers for ne.xt-: year
should Le ordered and delivered as
soon as possiable, as manafacturere
rre only allowed to produce the
actual amount ordered and sold. So
if the farmers who usyaly-'need this
product will get buisy right away
there won*t be a big shortage like
we expiorenced this year when the
grower wants to use it.
UP. WRITER TPILLS ABOUT HONOLULU.
A recent issue of the Fishing Newt
frdm Ketchikan has an article abou,.
three good looking cuties, who pose
‘fob pictures, hugging Sailoo,Soldier
and Marines for.from Hbi to 1.25
a picture, and says that the girls
snare about 150 customers a day. Wei
the writer remembers the time when
there were plenty of good looking
:girls in Honolulu who went. glaeHto
pose like this, but this was 25 year|
ago apd the men didn't outnumber the
girls by 150 to 1 like they do now.
For a minute we thought that the boj^
must have lost their charm, but the
statistics convince us that charmers
are taking advantage of the inflat
ionary status of money and the unus#
demand for womens companionship.
