There are 42 churches in the Spartan Association which will have representatives at the meeting Shoe Rationing Plan The Same The Office of Price administration yesterday denied reports that only one more shoe ration stamp will be made valid for rationed shoes this year. No substantial change in the ration program is anticipated. OPA said.

When Airplane Stamp I in War Ration Book Three was validated last November 1, OPA said that it probably "ould be six months before another stamp came into use. Although It Is still too early to say definitely how many pairs of shoes will be available for civilians in 1944, indications now are that the present ration rate a new stamp approximately every six months-will be maintained. In addition, substantial quantities of non-rationed shoes are availHble, and extra rations can be obtained-from local war price and rationing boards where need can be shown. It will be unfortunate. OPA said, if rumors of drastic cuts in shoe rationing leads to buying rushes.

Should it become necessary to invalidate any outstanding shoe ration stamp, OPA has promised that It will give at least ,10 days' notice. This means that civilians can save their ration stamps until they arc needed without fear of having the stamps suddenly become void. Mrs. Culbcrtson Painfully Burned HONKA PATH. Feb.
