1t is almost Imperative that the

the L. 5. Navy. They must be kept
warm if they are TO live to fight fol-

The Government does not supply

Wood always hankered for the Navy.
Nothing that his otherminded par.

However, as the U. S. Government
insists upon the tormality Of parents
permission for the enlistment OF a
minor, the hankering was vain for
several years, Finally instead OF
wearing wide trousers and singing
yo. no, Wood became a clothing
salesman and always saw to II that
his own clothes were cut after the
latest and most approved fashion.
The hankering was almost forgotten.
Then the United States demon.
strated the wrath of a patient land
and declared war upon Germany.

Hermit Jim's Last Sacrifice

RYO one ever knew where
~ Hermit Jim H u dson
~ came from. None knew
his story
One day he was discovered
in a little shack built of refuse
lumber from the dump down
along the river beside the ac-
queduct. And there he lived
for forty years. In summer he
hshed, worked a little, but
never talked OF himself. In
winter he hibernated, so to
speak.
He was a big, outstanding,
two-fsted man, capable OF
much, but utterly indifferent to
all about him. He was an enig-
ma, a mystery, a town char
acter.
As the years passed Hermit
Jim lost his robustness OF fig
ure and what remained OF his
ambition to work. Finally. at
seventy, the sheriff took him in
charge and carted him off to the
poor farm. Hermit Jim was a
mere skeleton, his clothes in
tatters, and his. feet bound in
burlap in place OF shoes. His
cupboard was almost as bare as
Mother Hubbard's, yet right
there he voiced the first COM
plant he had ever been known
to make. ~ His shack was his
castle, he declared, and should
be respected.
Tlinally, however, he capitu.
lated, but not without pro.
test, "I'm not objecting to
having more TO eatior a better
bed, Sheriff, he conceded, IN
English quite out OF keeping
with his condition, "but don't
like the prospective finish. It's
a poor climax to my early train
ing and ambitions" Right
there he became a clam again
despite all the sheriff's efforts
TO draw him out.

There are other reasons, too

reasons.
