41 SNYDER'S OYSTER COCKTAIL But we can serve our country, right here in our own homes by turning in our scrap and in many other ways that all help to strengthen Uncle Sam's fighting muscle! A party-line telephone, for instance, often saves two miles of copper wire that would be needed for a private line. It saves precious pounds of other scarce materials, too all headed now for action against the enemy.
