His second initial is "V". Probably none of us will ever know how much counterfeit money we handle, and probably won't ,Worry much about it until we are caught innocently passing it some time. Anyway, the treasury is now warning the Ixublic to watch for $1b bills with the letters E, G. I. L on the left face or the numbers F-28, J16, A9 or J100on the right face. Other' identifica- tion may be supplied upon request . . . If you get a twenty, I'll be glad to check it for you.

Think that over' The Knife and Fork Club had a highly successful session Monday xight with V. V Roulsten serving as chairman, aided by R. W. Lark- key and Joe Hayes, Wonder if Mrs. Roulsten knows what an ac- complished cook her husband can • be on occasion . . • or did she do the cooking? Maybe we'll never know. Rev.

Sweet. wood," military procurenient car, was outfited and donated by the .western Pacific Railroad for use )y the American National Red .ross in their blood program. The led Cross arranges the schedule of the car, taking it to out-of-the- way communities such as ours where there is no regular blood bank. The Western Pacific Rail- road has made itself responsible for keeping the schedule, even .though this usually means un- scheduled stops for its crack strcamliner to pick up the blood r to move the blood bank car. 'rhe Western Pacific Railroad is an outstanding example of donat- Ing unselfishly. We, as a com- munity can do the same. Let us all who are able give our pints of lood for the armed forces." "This win e your opportunity to give a pint of blood for the benefit of the men in the armed services, and also to see the novel set-up provided by the railroad for this purpose.

FOREST RECEIPTS UP TO NEW HIGH THROUGHOUT STATE More than 2 million dollars will be diStributed among counties of California containing National Forest land as their share in Na- tional Forest receipts for the last fiscal year which ended June 30. These estimates of amounts to be distributed have just been releas- ed by Regional Forester Clare Hendee of the Forest Service with headquarters in San Francisco. This amount, $2,340,741, repre- sents an increase of about 138% over the last fiscal year's returns to the counties. This increase is the result of higher prices for some national forest products and the opening up of new areas for fuller utilization of previously un- developed areas. Current receipts indicate that next year's returns will go even higher. New records will probably be established in most of the counties concerne& Ever year, 25% of each Na- tional orest's total earnings is divided amqzq¢ the cotmttes in hicha National 1Porest is located.
