It was the first public appearance of the or- chestra. and their playing under the direction of Frank Benson won very favorable comment. Many American flags and long streamers of ship's signal flags kind- Iy loaned from the Submarine Base made the attractive decorations. The service flag of the town with its 1630 stars and two electrieally lighted signs with the words “Welcome Home' and “World Victory, Peace” around a U.

Miss Breitzke's work will be carried on principally through wo- men’s organizations, the state execu- tives of which recently pledged their support for this phase of the govern- Committee ment thrift movement. The ultimate aim of the new department will be t carry “the practice of thrift into the home and to begin this by making popular the idea of a fam budget which will divide the income for sen- sible expenditure after a certain part has been put aside for investment ir government or other securities.
