From radio's treasure-chest a constant listener selects these words of wisdom and entertainment
HOW YOU CAN HELP
I asked my listeners, "What are you personally doing to help win the war?" Anwers flooded in. Many of the letters are from women. Listen to what they say:
"I've got women from all over our State salvaging wool from wrecked automobiles. Before we started to work, that wool was being burned out with acetylene torches just in the race to get in the steel scrap."
"We had no blankets for our local casualty station, so we got the idea of cutting up old woolen coats and dresses, exchanging colors, and making wool blankets out of those squares."
"We're cooperating in our community with butchers, saving goose and duck feathers, because we can make warm comforters out of them."
Another: "I do all my housework in the morning and spend the afternoon selling war stamps from house to house. Otherwise, I'd probably be sitting home getting fat."
"I found too many knickknacks when I cleaned house this spring, so I set up a victory exchange in part of my living room. The neighborhood women came in, gave me the articles
they didn't want, and when they were sold they got the money back in stamps." — Helen Hiet! on Town Meel ing of the Air, on the Blue Network.
CONFUCIUS SAY:
The Chinese have a proverb: "It is better to be rare jade — and broken — than be common tile — and whole." — Claire Boothe, speaking at a banquet for United China Relief, broadcast over CBS.
ARTIE SHAW'S NEW HOBBY
It was a Thursday night when I finished playing my final number on the stage of a Detroit theater. I said goodbye to my gang and Friday morning I was in dungarees aboard a Navy ship. From that time, music became my hobby. My profession is trying to learn to be one of Uncle Sam's good sailors. — Artie Shaw, former bandleader, on CBS' Hobby Lobby.
TWO OPPORTUNITIES
Every American citizen must understand clearly the one most important fact about the situation our
country now faces. That fact is that this year of l!J42 is th( mosl critical year in American history and tomorrow is the most ci itical day in the year. I say tomorn we
have not one instanl to lose. Our golden opportunity already lias slipped by; our silver opportunity is before us. — Donald Nelson, Chairman of the War Production Board, on ] March of Time, over the NBC Network.
A NEW KIND OF EDUCATION
Education in this country has been largely devoted to an effort to teach people how to earn a living. Now it seems likely to be diverted to teaching people the mechanics of industrial production and the mechanics of military operations. Such training is necessary. But it is training which must be added to or superimposed upon that basic liberal education which fits men for freedom. This liberal education is training in reading, writing, figuring, understanding, and judging. It is the education which the free citizen of a free community must have in war as in peace. — Robert M. Hutchins, President of the University of Chicago, on NBC.
