We've got to stretch the rubber on our tires a long way. One excellent way to do this is to take your neighbors' as well as your own children to school. Enlist your car today by joining a neighborhood car-sharing club to get the children to school. To do this is not only patriotic -- it's thrifty and guarantees a longer life for your car, greater mileage for your ties.

CAN YOU BEAT THIS RECORD? Henry W. Backhaus, 558 S. Ashley St., has contributed a souvenir collection to the scrap drive his automobile license plates dating back to 1928. Mr. Backhaus decided he would rather have the license plates dropped on Japan or Germany in the form of bombs than merely nailed to a garage wall. A lot of people have saved their old tags. That was all right during peace times, but war needs scrap. How many old plates have you to give?
