Rev. W. F . Heldt, who has been pastor of St. John's Ev . Lutheran church, Honesdale,the past 25 years, announced his retirement from active ministry, at the morning service, Sunday.
The scrap rubber drive netted abou 500,000 lbs. With the tremendous in crease in Army and Navy demands estimated by 1943* to be th ree time that of the past year, means a de cided shortage. Today we have ai army of 4,000,000, in 1943 or 1944 i will be 13,000,000. And the ail planes and trucks, which vitally nee< rubber, will take all and more thai can possibly be made and salvaged i the United States.
