'West Point Has a Word For It The Greeks have nothing on our Military Academy when it comes to tricky tags. Here are some clippers you might borrow: BONE to bone is to cram (something many of you have been doing this week). "Can't make the movies tonight.

Gotta bone for that test tomorrow." It also means to save. "I'm boning now for Easter BUGLE means to stand at the board until the end of the recitation period to avoid being called on again (these future generals are up on their strategy). "Didst notice Red's bugle act in chemistry?" COLD BOTTLE a bored Benjie who gets no rise and shine out of life or living. "Don't invite that cold bottle to our party. He'll spoil all the fun."

They're as smart as a snap of the fingers! Pearls, wooden beads or moonstones eye lovelies on sweaters or deep necked blouses. But the most amazin' beads on record (or on neck, your choice) are those worn by Dot Rynard, of Carlisle High School. Her necklace is made of painted peanut shells and there are real "live" peanuts inside. At Highspire High the newest trick is to "tend to your knitting." Peggy Snoddy recently wore Exhibit A on her coat lapel: a tiny ball of yarn (size of a twenty five cent piece) with about a 3 4 inch streamer of yarn, onto which was fastened a square patch of plain "handknitting." Across the top of the patch were two small white knitting needles. A little fastener was concealed under the ball on the top of the gadget.

Peggy says they're easy to make, and with a beanie and mitts to match dear ones you have something there! Priorities Violations Found in Steel Probe By Associated Press Washington, Jan. 30. An investigation of 230 steel companies has turned up "some serious cases'' of priorities violations, a War Production Board official said today, and action to "correct and possibly punish" them will be taken soon. A general tightening up of priorities enforcement, to prevent firms from supplying favorite customers while high rated military orders are held back, was indicated following the Senate's approval Wednesday of the so called second war powers bill."

have, muss WiTh a HSAD OF DiEyO0 have one i it True Love No Respecter Of Finances By DORIS BLAKE From several men comes the same sad story. Their girls have given them the "air" because of finances. It isn't a very nice tale, and this editor is ashamed of her sex. Why do girls run out on their true loves in favor of other suitors they don't love, just because there more money to spend? Take, for instance, the opposite point of view. A girl is love with a man.

He is in love with her. He is young, and he hopes in the fu ture to be able to ask his girl to be his wife. They go together for several years. He is at the bottom of the ladder of success, but is doing his best to get ahead. With encouragement from his girl friend ringing in his ears, he has a good chance to succeed.

Many's' the time he and she sit over a cup of coffee and dream sweet dreams of romance. Then along comes another man, an older man. He has been through the struggle and is now successful. He is able to court a girl in the manner to which she would like to become accustomed, 'and he sue ceeds in weaning her away from a less glamorous, but truer, love. What she feels for him usually is not love.

Their ages are too far apart for true congeniality. unen parental lniiuence may cause a younger girl to turn against the man of her heart, merely because he is not making enough money to support her. There is good and bad in such influence. Time alone will tell if it is true love she feels, or if it is just a passing fancy. In any case, it is wise to wait and see if the love lasts.

It is inadvisable for a girl not of age to be stubborn about being in love. She should go with others to make sure her particular heart interest is the one she loves best of all, before she decides to marry. A girl who is old enough to know her own mind, and who is not swept off her feet emotionally, can often be the inspiration her love needs. Baby Dies of Poison 3Iistaken For Candy Punxsutawney, Jan. 30, (JP) Howard Johnson, deputy coronerj of Jefferson county, reported that medicinal tablets mistaken for candy caused the death of 13 month old Grace Lucille Territo of Crawfordtown.

Go BeK lb A I eAri IS Chech on Charm Beauty and You BY PATRICIA LEVDSAY 1 Assorted powders with small fresh puffs between is a thoughtful convenience for your lady guests. Be a Lovely Hostess For Duration It stands to reason that enter' taining at home instead of at clubs and restaurants, will increase dur ing the war. Blackouts, limited gasoline and rubber, reduced in comes, end danger of accidents, all will make neighborhood parties the rule instead of the exception One can entertain at home very graciously and no guest need carry the fears of war with her or him through the evening hours.

There will be an enthusiastic revival of parlor games, group reading and singing, and living room dancing The hostess must look very at tractive for keeping up morale is her job. And she must see to it within her budget, that her guests are offered every convenience There may be occasions when one's dinner guests will be forced to remain overnight in case of blackout testing or actual alarms So see to it that you, as hostess are supplied with fresh towels and face cloths, bath soap, shaving aids for the men, cosmetics for the ladies. A little thought when buying guest room supplies will cover most emergency problems. For in stance one firm offers a long box which holds three smaller boxes of face powder and fresh, downy powder puffs. Three serviceable shades of powder from which a guest may make her choice.

A giant jar of cleansing cream and a box of face tissues are other essential aids, as are a few extra, inexpensive tooth brushes, cleans ing powder, a clean brush and comb and a box of hairpins and safety pins. At a chainstore, or drugstore counter, you may buy a small size lipsticks and small pots of rouge in various shades. These may be kept in the dressing table drawer for use by a careless guest who may have forgotten to bring her own make up with her. Of course, if you wish, you may have more elaborate supplies, ot tering various creams, hand 10 tions and scented bath aids. If your guests do not use them you may use them yourself for they help greatly in keeping the old spirit soaring! As morale is a woman's job, every.

American woman must ac quire and radiate poise. It is up to us to be calm, sensible in our movements, happy in our attitude and optimistic in our hope. It is amazing how one such woman can affect an entire room full of friends who might, if she were not present, show their panic. So ac quire poise at once and then practice it.

en Unity of Military Command in U.S. Urged Washington, Jan. 30. Unity of military command in the conti nental United States was urged today by Rep. Vinson (D Ga), chairman of the House naval committee, to co ordinate the coun try's defenses against the possi bility of a sudden enemy stab on either coast.

Vinson said he had placed his suggestion before Navy Secretary Knox and other high ranking navy officials. 3 Keep Those Elbows Soft; Lotion Helps By ANTOINETTE DONNELLY "Danger, soft shoulder!" is a familiar sign to many motorists. The sign means that the road sides have not been finished completely, and is designed to safeguard mo torists who might get off the con crete part of the road. In beauty language, "soft elbows" needs no "danger" before it. It would, how ever, if elbows were rough, dis colored, and calloused.

For woman possessing elbows that are not harmonious with the softness of the rest of her body would be in grave danger of missing out on many an admiring glance. Although many winter dresses have long or three quarter length sleeves, some of them do have the short sleeves, and your elbows are very much on view to others, even if you can't twist your head to see them yourself, in evening dress, especially, your elbows hould be soft and smooth and white, otherwise the lovely effect you wish to create is lost, all be cause of that one vulnerable spot Elbows do get a lot of use. Every time you lean on a table, chair arm or desk you use them. They are naturally more toughened than other parts of your body. Only feet are likely to get as "tough," or.

perhaps, the palms of your hands The hands become calloused only when they do hard work. Elbows get general use. In the summertime you may get away with bronzed and roughened elbows because you wear sports clothes, go in for sports, and have that outdoor look about you. But in the winter, when you wear more formal attire, you want to keep your elbows in good condi tion, and be the belle of the ball So always give your elbows good scrubbing with either washcloth or brush and good rich soapsuds. Rinse the soap off well with warm water, dry, then rub on a hand cream or lotion.

Constant treatment of this sort each time you bathe will make your elbows the way they should be as fem ininely soft as the skin on your hands and face. Co ordination in Area Sought by Chamber Civilian and military co ordina tion in the Harrisburg area will be the theme of a meeting spon sored by the Harrisburg Chamber of Commece Wednesday evening Feb. 25, President E.

"ThaT is, yuee as (sKoueny aTThe BakBers AS you AI2.E AT HOANE How to Eat Well $12 a Week Provides Good Table For Four Not only is honey, eaten "straight," one of the most palatable of sweets, it is also the oldest and one of the most wholesome The kind of sugar present in honey is a simple sugar which, unlike cane sugar, does not require break ing down by the digestive system before it can be absorbed and turned into energy. That is why it is especially good for children, invalids, old people, or anyone with delicate digestion.

The fact that it is a very economical sweet makes it especially desirable for these times. Honey is a fine sweetening for cakes, for honey cakes retain moisture longer than cakes made with sugar. The rule for substituting honey for sugar in cake recipes is to reduce the liquid cup for each cup of honey used, and to have the flour meas urement slightly scant; only about 1 3 to of the sugar should be replaced with honey. Honey Loaf Cake With Peanut Butter Icing 2 teaspoons 2 cups cake double action flour baking cup sugar powder cup strained Vi teaspoon salt honey JA cup oleo 2 eggs, beaten margarine 1 3 cup milk or other 2 teaspoons shortening cream Sift flour, measure, and resift 3 times with baking powder and salt.

Add flour mixture and milk alternately in several por tions, beginning and ending with flour and beating well after each addition. Stire in the cream and pour batter into a large loaf pan (11 by 5 by 3 inches) which has been neatly lined with but tered brown wrapping paper Bake in a moderate oven (350) for about 50 minutes, or until a tooth pick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

Brazil is unique among the countries of the Western Hemisphere for its deposits of diamonds, according to the Department of Commerce. By Meta Given Yes, you can have an occasional pork roast and still keep wlhin your food budget! Maybe it won't be just the same roast you would have had if your food money had been unlimited, but it can be every bit as good. A loin end pork roast tastes so much like the center of the loin that most people never Know tnem apart.

There are those who prefer the end of the loin, because they feel it is more tender and juicer because it is often more fat. A 3 pound loin end roast will serve your family of four generously for one dinner and at least one luncheon. Roast Loin End of Pork Wipe a 3 pound loin end pork roast all over with a clean damp cloth. Sprinkle with salt and place on a trivet in a shallow open roasting pan. Bake in a slow oven (32o) for about 2Vi hours (about 50 minutes to the pound) or until a meat thermometer inserted in the center of the roast registers 185 degrees.

Remove roast to platter and make gravy from drip pings remaining in pan, stirring in about cup flour until smooth and then 2 cups cold water. Stir until gravy boils and thickens, and season to suit taste. Serve roast hot with gravy. Applesauce makes a particularly good accom paniment for roast pork.
