Double Purpose Blackout
Polson, Mont. —(UP)— Flathead valley authorities and the power company are to aid each other in a practice blackout. The power company planned to take advantage of the shutdown to make needed changes at a generating plant while the citizens learned what to do in the blackout.
Flynn Says Martin Plays War Politics
Washington, —(UP)— Chairman Edward J. Flynn of the Democratic national committee, and Chairman Joseph W. Martin, Jr., of the Republican national committee, who proclaimed a political truce for the duration on Dec. 11, appeared today to be headed for something of a political shindy.
On Monday Martin broadcast a speech suggesting that President Roosevelt summon some Republicans and anti-new deal Democrats to help with the war effort. Specifically he suggested Former President Herbert C. Hoover for price control administrator, and Wendell L. Willkie, Alfred M. Landon, 1936 Republican Presidential candidate, former District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey of New York, and a group of Democrats, including Alfred E. Smith, Joseph B. Ely, John W. Hanes and Lewis W. Douglas.
Flynn today issued a statement questioning Martin's interest in national unity. It said:
"Esteemed contemporary, Chairman Martin of the Republican national committee, has nominated Herbert Hoover to be price control administrator. He does not state whether this is because of the ex-President's administrative ability, or merely as a token of the Republican desire to signalize the adjournment of politics during the war period.
"It is likewise coincidental that a majority of Republican senators voted for amendments to the price control bill, which would take away the authority of Price Control Administrator Leon Henderson to operate in relation to the prices on pretty much everything we eat and wear—except with the countenance and approval of the secretary of agriculture—and hiked the proposed ceiling on agricultural prices.
"At any rate Mr. Hoover's name heads the list of people chairman Martin thinks should occupy major posts in the administration. Mr. Martin is thoroughly nonpartisan in his nomination for he includes in his list several Democrats. It is only coincidence that among them are conspicuous the names of Democrats who opposed their party's nominee in the last election and were prominent in the forces affiliated with the Republicans.
Sen. Tom Connally also had some suggestions about appointment of

Republicans to high posts in the war program. His suggestions:
Willkie—"I would put Willkie in the public information section under Col. Donovan." (Col. William Donovan, coordinator of information).
Mr. Hoover"I think Mr. Hoover's services ought to be utilized for building up civilian morale."
Landon-"Put Landon in charge of the prevention of sabotage in oil fields."
Camp Stewart, Ga. —(UP)— It may seem strange to be accosted by military police with "if you please, sir," instead of the more familiar, "all right, pull over, bud," but it is not unusual at this army center where Lieut. Col. W. V. Ochs has built his MP force from men with a minimum of one year in college.

Originality--Spice of Life Dare To Be Different!
Are you in a rut?
Do you plod to class day after day, always monotonously the same as everyone else? Do you make people notice you every day or do they know how you will look without so much as glancing at you?
There are too few people who dare to be original; it is so much easier just to be one of the mob. It really takes character, brains, and nerve to be different.
Einstein, Wally Simpson and Winnie the Pooh are all famous for the quality of being different, for that interesting "only one that" distinction.
The average girl is not original or daring because she is afraid. Afraid of "what people will think" a virtual "slave to opinion."
Listen! You are all your own. In you resides the privilege to make yourself as charming, as beautiful and as outstanding as you can.Don't neglect this privilege.
Stop pining because you aren't as cute as your roommate or as glamorous as the homecoming queen. Don't worry about them, but concentrate upon your own assets. You are your own responsibility.
Try new styles! Wear a pea-green
shawl with a scarlet dress, if that's what you want to do. Twist your hair into braids or hack it off. Try things, and adopt the becoming experiments for your very own. Be famous for your checked hair ribbons or your flashy anklets. Remember this, however, it's better to go a bit wrong on a fashion spree than to sink with a despondent "glug" into the slough of obscurity.
Progress in every phase of our world has been due to the fact that someone was different—from the first cave man who tried his meat broiled to the modern scientist who searches for a method of storing the sun's heat.
What a debt we owe to the pioneer woman who first wore slacks to school, braving narrow-minded convention and prejudice, that she and her sisters might be comfortably covered on freezing days.
Everyone, whether or not he admits it, admires the "rugged individualist." So thumb your nose at opinion and—Dare to be Different.
