44 A.MBRICAN medicine antici • ^ pated this present need,"

says a booklet released by the Na­tional Physicians' Coinmitteo for the Extension of Kledical Sorvico. " I t has established a new place for itself — through scirvicc."

One very fihe example of that is found iu the response of Amer­ican medicine to the needs of the Selective ScrvlDo- System. As soon as the act was passed, physicians volunteered their services to mnn the examining, boards in every urea and every state. Not one cent of recompense was asked or received. Today, with the Army expanding at an ever-ener'easing rate, tliousands> upon thousands of doctors are giving more and more of their working tiine to the government. — without thought of any financial return.

'T'lIB rapid gi'owtji of volunteer civil dofcilso groiips is a fine

thing for this country. It is shpwing people that the rcsponsi-biiity for prcveiitiiig and deal­ing with disasters must bo shared by alii People who used to think of fli-e a« sduiethiijg \Vliich Wlis exohiaivcly tile fire dbpartmont's business, are learning that it is their own personal business.

Fli-e Commissioner Charles 'I'cr-hunc said yesterday that the pub­lic must in some way be brought to realize that they must protect themselves. However eriicicnt a (ire department may be, it is a physical impossibility to extin­guish duKciis of fires all blazing simultaneously.

It is natural and right Ihat fire defelise is one of the principal pXu'poses of tlie entire civilian de­fense movomeut. Amoricti,. like

for armn-jHiigland, may one dii^' be' show ered with' iiicendiarial from eil eiiiy planes. Kneiny agents AVith in our own borders will unques­tionably atlenipt sabotage on a wide scale, and fire is their main weapon. Unless the people aro trained and ready, these agents will succeed — at a terrible toll in American life, American re­sources, American war produe-fion.

There is a saying in Ijondon to the elfeet that "every hou.so is a fire house." That is the goal we must try for in our country. And wo must not think entirely' iu terms of euemy-started fires. The greatest present danger lies in the "nor inar ' fires — the fires that are the result of human carelcHsness, human indifference hunmn ignorance, human failure of 11 hundred different kinds. These fires strike homes — and labor and materials must he di verted from the war effort to re build and repair. These fires strike factories — and the pro duetion of vital arms may be de layed. These fires strike farlns— and the production of fond for our allies' and ourselves is af footed.

Almost every citizen can be­come part of the vast ' 'fire fight­ing army" wo need. All can learn the simple lessons that will enable us both to prevent fire and to deal with fii'e when it breaks out.

rjURINO the next few months civilians all over the country

aro going to feel the Impact of the war more strongly than ever be­fore. Shortages like those that have already occurred in many lines of consumer goods aro going to increase, and Increase rapidly, according to officials here, as more and niore Industries change over to the grim' and sober business of full time war production.

The experts say that an aciito metal shortage is rapidly develop­ing on the production front. It's bound to cut still further the amount of metals now available for the manufacture of the articles that are regarded as necessities in peacetime. Army and NaVy esti­mates for the current war pro­gram Indicate that military de­mand alone exceeds the supply of many metals.

This month five industries — Laundry ctiulpment, electrfc refrig­erators, radios and phonographs, electric rerrlgeratlon, Vending ma-ohlneis, and vacuum cleaners — are going to stop making civilian goods. No lawnmowers except thbse need­ed to harvest crops may tie turned out after June 30. Iron and steel used In making beds, bedsprlngs and mattresses, have already been curtailed from 15 to 00 per cerit. Iron, steel, and zinc used in manu­facturing scores of kltclien and household articles will be cUt up to ,50 per cent, beginning June 30..

These reductions are only a few of the many that are coming, but they Indicate what's happening, and what's going to happen in the future, as Industry continues to concentrate on war production.

WPB and OPA officials are frank­ly worried over the possibility of "panic buying" as the result of these scarcities. They realize that something must be done to pre­vent runs on stores by anxious cus­tomers, but so far no one has come up with a workable solution to the problem.

Some "Very Important lessons are emphasized in the Sunday School studies of the life of Chri-sti as por­trayed In the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and LUkc, this quarter. Last Sunday we considered "Christian teamwbrk.'' Even tlesus himself could not do alone all that needed to be done before his earthly min­istry Was finished; so he selected 70 disciples — besides the 12 who were nearest to hlin and received the special instruction — and sent them but to prepare the way before him In Perea, where he had not been before. "By the standards of their time, these disciples were not skilled religious workers. Com-piifbd with the scribes, who had given their lives to the study of re­ligion, they were unlearned laymen. But Jesus was organizing a 'teatn' tor God, and on that team was a place for every man who wanted to do his phrt." 'rhe poweir of God was maiilfested through tlieni and they returned, not tired, but exalt­ed, with a new feeling of fellow­ship with God,

Have you found your place on God's "team"? "God's work re­quires teainwork and everyone can find a place on that team. Per­haps you won't be a star for some little time to come, But a team Is like a well-oiled machine, every cog must be in place in working order of the whole Is to operate. To the machine, and to the team, the smallest cog Is as important as Is the largest. What you need to join theciirlstlah team is the desire to work for God. A place will be found tor you.

DID YOU £VER? . Helena Corcoran

Did you ever arise, on a cold Win­ter's day,

And hurry about, to be on your way?

Your underwear's cold, the floor Is like let, .

You wish your warm bod didn't look so nice.

The spot tiiat you slept in is ever so warm.

Having to leave it makes you for­lorn.

The bathroom is chilly, the water so cold,

It's tlien that you feel you're ever so bold.

And when you are dressed and out on your way, .

You envy the neighbors this cold winter's day.

You wish that sometime you could waken and stay •

Forever and ever, In your warm bed this day.

often, I fear, oUr reaction Is like that of the scribes and Pharisees, resentment against the one who criticizes, when it should be a self-examination to determine if the criticism is well-founded; and, if so, to readjust our own actions so that the same criticism will no longer be deserved. Let's keep it in mind, and try to make good use of criticism, deserved and unde­served, N, H. C.

BEHAVIOR UNDER CRITICISM

Here is another exceedingly practical matter to think about. In next Sunday's lesson the Pharleses and the scribes reacted to Jesus' criticism of their shortcomings, not by repentence and reformation, but by resentment and by "laying wait for hlrri; and seeking to catcli

At this writing the pastor Is feeling better than when he went to Brooklyn. Probably before Sun­day comes he will have had an op-eiratlon, the result of which will de­termine whether or how soon he may return to resume his pastoral duties in the Short Beach Union Chapel. In the meantime both he and we may rest confidently in the same assurance which the Apostle Paul had: "For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; 'and wheth­er die, we die unto Tne Lord: whether we live therefoi:e, 'or die, we are the Lord's." See also Phil. 1:21. N. H. C.

ALL FOR ONE i4TTNlTIi;i) WE STANDI" That's the real spirit of America today.

Behind the headlines and the hurly-burly of a giant nation gearing itself to war there's a new feeliiig of unity.

You've noticed it yoiirseh'. i^eople aro sharing their cars;J:hey aro lending their neighbors articles that can't be bought any longer iu the stores; they're helping each other in many little ways -— but little ways that count. Just as real trouble brings a family closer to­gether, so it ullite.s a nation.

According to the news stories, this same all-for-ono feeling ex­tends ito our war I'actories, too. Great industrioh aro pulling to­gether to speed their output of victory goods. One niunufactnrer who had already changed over his plant to war work helped a rival firm to make a similar shift, lendinii: out his expensive plans and fac­tory specifications (for the rival job. Another eonipiiiiy helped to train workers I'or'a new airplane plant. Tin can mnnufaclurcrs have pooled their brains and experieneo to work out the best'tin-saving de­vices; several of their once-guarded maiiufaeturing seerets dame out in the process.. , ,

As a matter of fact, many industries have shared designs and patents essential to victory production. Like the rest of the dountry, iliey're working hard and working togegther.

Why, some of the coun­try's important merchants actual­ly hire experts to tell them what is wrong with ' the management of their stores. The good buslriess-ma:n wants to be criticized; he wants to, know the weak spots in his orgaiilzatlon, in order that he may correct them. It should be so with us. .

ernment agencies Involved to de yelop and execute a co-ordinated liolicy that would put an overall blanket on Wages', profits, and on prices to replace the present "Piece meal" method of dealing with these problems.

Officials who are sponsoring the plan contend that it would elimin­ate the continued dernand for tt'age Increases on the part' of labor. When such increases were given, they woiild be paid in Government bonds.

THE NEW TAX BILL

TT'S NOT yet clear just what kind ot tax bill Congress will

pass. But some of the provisions can be forecast now:

Tneome taxes will be increased but to a lesser extent than the Treasury asked. Exemptions will probabl.v be reduced.

There is a fair ohaiiee of a gen­eral salek tax, of about f) per'cent; being ndhpted, In any fcvcnt, there will he mnnj'- new individ-iiul sales luxes on sueh items as

liquor, jewelry, liome equipment, ele.

It is likely that the Treasury's request for enforced joint-income tax returns for liusba'nd and wife will be adopted in a modified form. Separate returns probably will be allowed where the wife actually has a job, but not in any other eases.

Industrial war profits probably will be limited iu some way. It is believed that any fixed limita­tion, such as li per cent, is work­able. This is a very intricate problem, and it 's going to be a job to work out an eciuitable for­mula.

AUXILIARY FIREMEN

AS MEN and women throughout the country become more and

more aware of the fact that "this Is war," Congress can look forward to a closer check on Its actions by the folks back. home. The recent flood of mall about the 40-hour week is only the beginning, accord­ing to inany observers here who re­member other national crises that aroused a letter-writing mood in John Does all over the nation.

Although the tfuce in the bitter controversy over labor legislation is scheduled to last until April 20, op­posing camps are still maneuver­ing behind the scenes. What the outcome will be no one can predict at the moment, for the situation changes from day to day. This much is certain however.^ Letters from the folks back home demand that something be done, and done qnlckly, to guarantee maximum co-operation in the victory produc­tion drive.

As Donald Nelson said the other day, "we have but little time." General opinion here Is that lead­ing industrialists already realize this and are acting, accordingly.

INDUSTRY WILL nilUMPlI My next door neighbor stopped In

yesterday, full ot foreboding. She had Just talked to somebody who had talked to somebody else wlio'd recently been in Washington. You can guess the kind of things .she said as soon as she got in the /door—-that •we were bungling our'wfir ef­fort — that people in Washington were confused and inefficient—that men were playing politics "as Usual" •—and finally, that she was ashamed of the country and couldn't see for the. life of her how we were going to win the war!

I invited her to take off her hat and relax while I made some tea and got out some of the honey cookies I've Just learned to make.

"Now look here, Jane," I said after she'd sipped some of the tea and be­gan to calm down. "No matter what any body tells you, you've no busi­ness to go around,spreading gloom. Some things may be ^a mess in Washington. They probably are In all' the capitals of the world, only we don't hear about the others.

"But that Isn't the whole story by a good deal. And while you've been hearing things, I've been reading things In the newspapers—good, en­couraging things, that make me proud of this country and confident that we'll come through this year with colors flying. You know, a

newspaper man who's been all over the world and covered everything from garden club exhibits to mur­ders and wars isn't one to rave."

Jane nodded ner agreement. "And when one of these hard-

boiled, clear-sighted men writes en­thusiastically about a ..thing, .It means something, doesn't * It?"

Jane nodded again. "Well, nowadays, a let of them are

raving. They're throwing their hats In the air and simply letting them­selves go In'storles that send thrills up your spine the way a good, loud parade band does. We've always had a genius for mass production. We started it, and we've always done it better than any other nation— the efficient Germans included. ' Today American industry has taken all of this 'know how' and experience and put it to work tor Uncle Sam. Ap­parently the results are something to marvel at. Listen to this, for in­stance," I said, and then read her Just one paragraph from a recent story written by a famous column­ist after visiting a huge Detroit plant that is making the machines of war. Sneaking of a visitor to the plant, he says:

^ PRACTICAL HEALTH HINTS

New Relief for Constipation

-By Dr. Jamea A. Tobey-

CONSTTPATION is one of our most common ailments. When

occasional or mild. It seldom causes harm, when chronic and

habi tual , it often impairs health.

R e g u l a r elimination of body wastes can be achiev­ed by most per­sons. In the past, the meth­ods usually ad­vised In stub-

„ , , , . born cases In-.Dr.Iam«A.Tol«y eluded the use of foods contalntag roughage, plenty of fluids, moderate exer­cise, massage of the abdomen, and regular bowel habits.

These procedures are still de­sirable In many eases, but science has shown us new ways to con­trol constipation. This disturb­ance of the colon, or lower bowel, generally can be corrected by means of diets high In certain vitamins,.

For normal function of the in­testinal system, we must have in our daily fare plenty of thiamine, or vitamin B,. Tire well-nourished person who gets enough of this vitamin rarely suffers from con­stipation, unless there Is some­thing organically wrong with him.

In the past, sucli food products as bran, yeast, whole wheat, bulky

vegetables and fruits, were al­ways considered valuable in the treatment of this troublesome costive condition. The results were ascribed to the roughage; or indigestible fiber. In these prod­ucts. It so happens, however, that all of them are rich in the B vita­mins, such as thiamine, riboflavin CB2), and niacin.

The best food source of this regulatory vitamin Bi are en­riched white bread, whole grain products, oatmeal, pork and ham, properly cooked vegetables, meats generally, and to a lesser extent pasteurized milk, eggs, nuts, and soybeans.

Constipation, whether mild or severe, should be relieved by means of a proper diet and good hygiene, rather than by such arti­ficial devices as the constant use of laxatives and cathartics. Min­eral oils are objectionable be­cause they remove vitamins from the digestive tract. Bran is equal­ly bad, because it is irritating to most persons. Laxatives only make the condition worse.

If, as occasionally happens, a diet rich in vitamin Bi, together with exercise, plenty of fluids, and other measures, falls to clear up this condition, the sufferer should consult his family physi­cian. Th-' rioptor may find a phy-slcaldef "'-h can be corrected to the •! the Individual.

Light And Power Anxious To Help In Winning War

The Connecticut Light and Power Company has subscribed for one million dollars worth of the short-term U. S. Treasury certificates which were offered for sale Monday, according to C. L. Campbell, Presi­dent of the Company. The Treas­ury . Department has Issued about one and a half billions of dollars worth of the certificates which bear pne-hair p_t , mi.o p.er ,;cer.t„.lnter.p^t',i

''.Weare anxious to cooperate with the Government's war effort In every way possible," Mr. Campbell said, "and the lending of one mil lion dollars to the U. S. Treasury Department IS one way in which we can help without impairing service to our customers."-

Mr. Campbell explained that the Treasury may not accept the Com­pany's full subscription, since the Department re,5erves the right to limit sales in excess of $25,000. The one million dollars which the Com­pany would lend to the Treasury, the utility President said, Is part of the money realized from the Company's recent sale of preferred stock. This money was raised to finance expansion ot generating and transmitting facilities to furnish more power for Connecticut's in­dustrial war activity, Mr. Campbell said, but one million dollars will not be needed until after the Treas ury Department's certificates ma tare.

AND STAMPS

What Is air raid precaution to those who are In I t? ' I t is a service of the people, by the people, for the people. T h a t Is the basis from wliich you mus t s tar t . I t is self-

imposed, It Is voluntary. T h a t Is Its essence. And It embraces ev­eryone In the entire nation In Its scope, for the mutua l protection of one another a n d the , preservation of all In your country t ha t you hold dear. I t is a waste of time protect ­ing and preserving anything else. And no other service In, tho history of mankind h a s offered such op­portunities as this for practical de­votion to such good ends. By a d e ­quate prepariilion, and by nothing: else, great suffering can be avoid­ed. Tha t Is my message to you, from the people of Britain.

.^ Etlm^naie .the ^Sojit Suots ^.^ I t is my personal conviction t h a t

you canhot prepare too much or too soon. Don't rest on Imaginary security. Denmark did, Norway did, France did, we did — I hope you won't. I n your industries you take precaut ions/ to protect tho lives and hea l th of J^he,, personnel. Today war Is the greatest Industry t ha t has ever come to mankind — why not take Just as great pre­cautions aga ins t It? you can stop an airplane wi th psychological de­fense as truly as with bullets and shells. Any mili tary man will tell you tha t he would think twice be­fore a t tacking ' a fully prepared po-siion. The panzer forces go for the soft spots, t h e unprepared posl tlons. A country with a well-or­ganized air raid precaution won't be at tacked lightly.

I t is not my purpose to discu-ss tho technical details of a warden 's work. But there are a number of things 1 would like to .speak of. For one th ing: never turn* down a vol­unteer . Don't mind his size or his looks or his past . Find a place for him — and for hor. Find a place for the rabbity little man who in ordinary life gets ra ther pushed around. In h i s home and a t his work — I have seen him hanging on to the mos t difficult and d a n ­gerous lobs long after his more vo­cal brethren have droppe'd off. And find a place for that , masterful woman most men are afraid of and avoid like poison — I have seen her displaying qualities of unders tand­ing and compassion which would shame her critics. No. I wouldn't turn down anyone. The stress of duty calls for th unexpected mer i t — and in a i r raid precaution wo need every ounce of mer i t we can get, • ,

For another thing, as civilian volunteers, remember t h a t soldiers and the police, all members of all the regular forces, are just normal people who have to be In unlfo5m. Treat them as normal people like yourselves, whose ta^k Is harder t h a n yours. They a re ' unde r orders, and they may have to give orders to you which you don't like to car ­ry out and they don't like to ask you. Carry out their orders wi th­out question — for you mus t ac­cept discipline. '

T h r e e . Reminders , Remember always these three

things for which air raid wardens must s tand ou t above all else. First, love your work. If t h a t isn ' t in you, doiVt offer your services ^ because t h a t Is t h e ' otily thing, which will keep you"*, going when the emergency comes.*^'Second, a c ­cept discipline willingly. Practice

selt-disclpllne. Third , never miss a tour of duty.. T h a t Isn ' t easy. You may have had a hard day in ydiir ordinary work and you don't want to report for duty in tho eve­ning. Perhaps there 's a good show at the local cinema, and you're dog-tired, and it 's ra ining and no night for air raids. So you go to the cinema. You say to yourself, tha t It doesn't mat te r . Bu t It does. Others have the same Idea — and the only man v/lio tu rns up is the chief warden. And he .says. "Well, I have nothing to do — I'll go home, too." These things have happened — until t he suffering happened. ,

Priiplice Ceiistantly Practice all the t ime. You have

to be perfect and pluperfect in this game. Don't even stop bocau.^e you are t ired. Have a necessary task always before you. You see, busy people are less bothered with nerves t h a n people who have noth­ing much to do. Keep everybody In your sector busy, too. Organize the men, women, and children for definite things t h a t need to be done. This is one of tho great se­crets of morale — Just keeping busy when tlme.s. a re tense. Try to think of little tasks, little duties, for yourself and others to do — and you'll find t h a t your sector is tops, with morale alw.iys a t Its highest.

There is no other part icular re­ward for good work In air raid pre­cautions — except the chance to do more of it. Much of your work, Indeed most of i t — will be per­formed In a blackout, quite un ­recognized. The reward is the knowledge tha t you have faced stark fear and have mastered it, tha t on every hand hell is let loose and you have overcome it, t ha t the behavior of hundreds of people is governed by your behavior, and tha t you stand as a . rock breaking the force of-the s torm, a firm rock on which men can build, a good rock where children can find se­curity. T h a t can be your reward, and p ray God to sustain you in it.

as a lack of energy bu t the teach­ers and pa ren t s call It laziness and a blult so they don't have to do their homework. Spring fever might be cured by seeing a doctor, but it is mostly will power which win cure this disease.

There is still a question, "should teachers give less homework dur ­ing spring?" Pupils should be giv­en more homework to keep them busy and out of mischief. I t Is dur ­ing this time t h a t they are full of pep and they are looking for some­thing mischievous to do.

Dear Adviser: My teacher complains because I

continuously till my books with my papers. I realize t ha t it doesn't help the books any. Can you sug­gest some way In which I won't lose my papers bu t be able to keep them?

Dear Stuf Per : I suggest you make-a simple fold­

I'm No Slacker' Says T.Williams

"I 'm no slacker. J'm no t yellow. I 'm as patr iot ic as anybody. Base­ball means all the world to me, n a ­tural ly; but two things moan more. One Is my duty to my mother . The o the r Is my duty to my country. I can ' t see the fairness In any­body's trying to put me In the spot where I've got to choose between triem."

I n those words, . Ted Williams, slugging ouinelder of the Boston Red Sox, defends himself In the current Liberty magazine. "

"One thing I don't do Is kid my­self," he declares.'. " I 'm not too smar t , and maybe I've done some dumb things But I 'm not tha t dumb. I don ' t want to dare any­body to boo me into t h e . Army or

'Navy. I 'm thin-skinned. I 'm sen­sitive. The ball park can be full of cheering people, and they can all be cheering me but one guy, and somehow over It all I can hear tha t 0)10 boo."

Williams, In the Liberty article, says he can ' t predict w h a t he'll do It and when the booing s ta r t s .

OUR CAR How lb Gel Uic MOST out of If

Note : E v e r y motoris t needs to know how to get the most out of h is car—for his own and for his country's, sake. Follow­ing is the first of a series of articles on car conservation. T h e y are based on material just published in a book, Automobile User 's Guide, which w a s prepared by the Customer Research staif of General Moto r s in cooperation wi th General Motors engineers, Proving Ground experts, research technicians and service specialists.

i T o malte your car serve for the durat ion, you mus t be both a careful driver and a careful owner. You must (1) opcr i te your car sensibly ari'd (2) sec that it is kept in top-notch condition.

' A ' c a r e f u l driver, from the point of view of your car, is not just k good driver. Many tilings that a-good'dr iver caii do under; normal, peacetime condition?, a caretul driver Would he' foolish to do today. A careful driver would no t drive fast today even on the best and safest road in the country unless saving a few minutes time were of p.'ira-mount importance.

Similarly, the rules pf car maintenance have changed. Pomts that were of minor importance before Pear l Harbor now must be given first consideration, Under-inflation has always been bad for t ires, ye^. B u t some were willing to pay in decreased tire mileage for a more cushioned ride. Today that price has become'pfohibitive.

Private boat owners and yachts­men In this a rea have been assured tha t , In the event It becomes neces­sary for them to enter repair docks located within the presen t restricted portion of New Haven Harbor, the Coast Guard offlco Is prepared to Issue permits upon application.

However, once allowed to pass the blockade under special permission each craft must proceed directly to the dock speclfled under 'escor t by a jDatrol.

The restricted section extends from the headwaters of the Quln­nlplac, Mill, and West Rivers south through the Inner ha rbor to a lino extending from Fort Hale Park on the east shore to the south end of the Sandy Point breakwater on the west shore, and thence to the mouth of Oldflold Creek.

A patrol will keep all pleasure craft—oven canoes and r o w b o a t s ^ out of the restricted zone, and Coast Guard permits are required for operation in all o ther coastal waters.

Questions have been raised as to the need for permits for clamming. Lieut. Frederick K. Daggett , assist­an t port captain, who has his olllce a t 01 Water Street, reports t h a t persons holding Coast Guard Identl-Iloatlon cards may dig for clams on foot, but t ha t no clamming will be allowed within the prohibited area. In 'unrestr icted zones, an Identifica­tion card must be held to conduct clamming operations from a boat.

The Branford shore front, while not classified In the zone of rigid restriction by the Navy Department , will probably be used less by salt water fisherman t h a n Iti previous seasons. The regulations on the use of row boats requires a permi t and Identification provided by the cap­tain ot the Por t of New Haven.

Individuals and firms renting boats to sportsmen, which for years has been a profitable business will demand presentation of identifica­tion cards before renting the craft. The procedure will undoubtedly r e ­duce the revenue.

THE ItintlB ot vegetables selected for your homo garden this

Billing should be those that ara c.isy to grow, and those which havo a high vitamin 'content. ;

In a plot, 20 by. 40 feet, tested and planned especially tor a family ot four peraona, the following vege-tahio- varieties were grown: car­rots, Red Cored Chanteiiay and Danvcrs Halt-Long; corn. Golden Bantam and Stowell's Evergreen: beet, Detroit Dark Red; bush beans, Strlnglesa Green Pod; lettuco. Black Seeded Simpson; radisli. Scarlet Turnip White Tipped; : spinach. Giant Thick Leaved; Bcjuash, Table Queen and Early; Proline Slraighlneck; Swiss chard,] Lucullus; tomato, Marglobe; peas,: Thomas Ijaxton; also, turnips. |

I£ you have time, space, and sonio cxperlciice, y«u might round out your garden by adding some bt I these vegetables: asparagus, polo I beans, caullHower, n iuskmclon, okrn, onion! parsley, cucumber, | egg plant, kohlrabi, rhubarb, sal-; filty, parsnip, pepper, turnip, and; watermelon. , i

Since color Is Indicative ot vl. tnmin and mineral content, the home gardener should keep this fact in mind In planning the garden.

The kinds ot green, leafy vege­tables differ greatly from one sec­tion ot the country to another. .•Turnip greens, mustard, and col-lards are grown widely in the south, while beet tops, Swiss chard and spinach arc most popular lu the north.

Most people In the nbrtliern part ot the nation who htire eaten mus­tard and eollards prepared accord­ing ^o southern methods are happy to include theje southern 'stdjiles in their own gardens. Greater tisa ot "greens" Is a constructive step in the interest of better nutrition since the thinner and greener the leaf the higher the- mineral and vicamin content.

Paul Fcrraty, a tall American r e ­porter, Bttzed about him in dismay at the snow, waste, and dea th here in Slarnya Russia. Ho looked a t the wooden fences, a few empty bar­rels, manure pile, obandoncd Nazi equipment, and the smoking ruins of wha t was forniprly a prosperous farm — now a deserted battlefield. A short distaiice from lilm lay the body of a fallen Nazi whose arm had frozen uprlgiit in the Nazi salute — a final gesture to a cause.

He had covered many desolate scenes In his 24 years ot reporting, but he would long remember this. Paul had an empty feeling ot sor­row in the pit of his stomach. He had not experienced such grief since h i s wife, Shixrl, h ad died IB years ago. Strange tha t he should think of her today. Perhaps it was because he had to use skis t « l a y — she died a t St. Moritz of injuries sustained in a miscalculated ski jump. Ho shrugged his shoulders and started to make his way back to the Russian lines.

Above a clump ot trees in the distance he observed some smoke. J u s t another home destroyed, ho thought . On impulse, he turned and headed toward the smoke In the distance.

In the stillness Paul hoard hys­terical babble and then a piercing scream. He ventured cautiously through the clump of trees and saw the smoking ruins of a hi t . A short distance from the charred ruins lay a body; over It stood a young fellow of slight build holding the end ot a bayonet

The look of horriiucatlon on the shabbily-dressed Russian's f a c e reminded Paul of Shari . She had had the same look of unbelievable horror when they had gone h u n t ­ing togetlier and Shar i had killed a duck. It was the same look I A strange feeling possessed him as he accosted the young Russlon.

"What is wrong," Paul queried gently, in Russian. "Take hold of yourself, young man . "

Startled, the young R u s s i a n turned in terror; then; see ing , the Russian ski - trooper uniform, a look of relief crossed his face. He was trembling with .shock.

"He burned my home," he said haltingly, be tween ' ,sobs. "Tha t doesn't mat ter , bu t my aged grand mother was in l t „ bedridden. Now I a m all alone."

A cold blast of wind blew the young m a n ' t ha t toward Paul, who grasped it. The Russian's blond hai r was long and unkempt, Paul a t tempted to console him, but he stepped back fearfully. He accept­ed his h a t from Paul and fastened it securely under his cliin

"Are you Russian, Sir?" ' timidly. ,

"No, boy," Paul replied, American."

"You may speak EnglLsh, sir.. I know the language."

Paul wondered about him He sensed t h a t the young man was In dread of something. He seemed to be withholding facts.

Have you relatives in the army, boy?"

"Just my father. Sir. He was a captain, but he was killed in ba t ­tle near Moscow," The Russian re­plied in careful English, heavy with a Russian accent.

" I a m sorry, boy. Why don't you return with me to the Russian lines? You will be ••safer there ," Paul offered.

" I would ra ther remain here."

Could this be coincidence or was this young womati the rein­carnat ion of his deceased wife Shari? He regarded her closely. Her blue eyes and dark lashes were similar to sharl ' s .

"You have Irish eyes." "My mother 's father was Irish,

Sir." • There was little time to waste, so

Paul adjusted his skis. They must re turn to the Russian lines before dark. Then he would make a r ­rangements to sent k r l s t e n to Sweden. She was a Swedish citi­zen.

. " I can make ar rangements for your re turn to Sweden," he told her.

"Can you?" she cried happily. " T h a t would be wonderful, Paul." She spoke his name timidly. "May I call you tha t . Sir?"

" I f I may call you Krist in." He smiled.

"All r ight," she agreed. "I'll take you to Sweden myself.

I've been assigned to cover Stock­holm. I 'm leaving In a few days."

" I t Is gett ing dark, Paul . We must leave here. They will come for him," she said, designating the dead JJazl, "He was an Important official."

"You may use my skis. I'll use t h e German 's ," 'Paul bftered. .

"No," she protested, "I'll take them. They're mine, anyhow. He took them ifqm me last week.."

The skis were a short distance from t h e body, neatly set side by side. Paul fetched them for her .

She tore off a small piece of pa­per from the Bible page and bor­rowed Paul 's pencil.

"Bo careful what you say. Don't leaVe your name," Paul cautioned.

"Oh, no. I merely wrote — 'He know loo much about Ladef. La-def is not a fool Russian.' I told them t h a t was my name." Kris­tin placed the note in his pocket.

I n spite ot hlmiiblf, Paul laughed. Ho could imagine the Nazi's slu-peflcatlon when they foijnd tha t message.

After Kristin had put tho skis on she said, "Wall. I want to glvo you something.; '

She approached Paul and kisoed him tontitirly on the cheek. • Poul held her slight body a moment and a tremor Went through him. She felt like Shari I Tho same slight softness, gentle touch, and tijnder, affectionate kiss.

Paul felt strangely happy. He liked this young woman whose carefully-spoken English was hea­vy with a Russian accent. IIo knew she would mean much to him In the future.

You konw," Kristin said, "it's s t range, but it .seems I've known you before. Tha t is foolish. We've never seen each other before, have we?"

"We might have mot in another place."

"Wha t do you mean?" " I don' t know myself. I t 's jus t a

Survey Ratings Of School 'Fair'

Many school buildings throughout Connecticut that have for ycarfi been a menace' to safety and health of pupils are today undergoing Im­provements that will make them more suitable for the accomodation of children. The Impetus for this work Is a survey that the state Board of Education ordered conducted last summer. At that time 222 of the older buildings of the state were iln-spected and evaluated In a effort to. obtain (information on actual conditions under which many chll' dren are housed in public schools.

Only East Haven's Union School was Inspected. This is a two-story brick structure containing 8 rooms, Survey ratings were "fair" In all three safety categories. Specific findings Included low 'fire spread re slstance, inadequate fire alarm sys­tem and falling hazards.

The East Haven School Board has acknowledged the report and has under consideration the question of extensive remodeling as opposed to temporary Improvements and ultl mate abandonment.

Branford^ and North Branford had no schools Included In the survey.

The survey covered practically all the school buildings In the State that are fifty or more years old. The two-story wooden frame buildings, also, were covered, regardless of their ages. One-room schools, how­ever, of which there are some 200 stni in use, were not Included since In general, the same weU-known conditions are common to most of them.

The findings-of the study have been made avaHable to the boards of education and superintendents of schools in all towns which had buildings Included in the survey. In the case of each individual build ing inspected, a full report haslbeen submitted listing the unsatisfactory conditions found ond specific recom mendatlons for their elimination. Boards of education have been ur- ged to map out programs for sys­tematic attacks on the problems of bringing their school buildings up to acceptable standards of healthful ness and of safely from fire and ac cident.
