Nv Sam bore down upon seagirt
San Diego, Cal, and said ::

N9S your clear blue skies for my
aviatOrs, your ocean-going mesa for a
khaki city. and your deep, land-locked
harbor for submarines, radio stations,

all sorts of exciting things"
"AlI right, uncle" replied San Diego,
dropping its dolce far niente for work
ing Overalls. You bet !"
and = concrete ships" suggested
Uncle San, as an afterthought. 81
want you to build shoals of them"
Again San Diego was enthusiastic !;
and thus by an odd trick of these war
times, the most peaceful, dreamy city
in America has become a military
pageant.
Before the war San Diego was re-
nowned for its perpetual cool, fair,
sunny weather; for desert, seascapes
and flowers: for old Spanish archi-
lecture, artistic atmosphere, and ro-
mantle traditions. 1t was haven
for seekers of rest, JOY, and play. To-
day it stands at attention in olive drab.
Its population has been doubled by
uniformed men and it has more war
activities than any city of its size in
the country.
A Mixture of Races
It's wave-lulled quiet is broken by
the rhythm of marching feet, the mu-
sic of military bands, the clatter Of
hoofs and the aerial chug-chug of mo-
tors. A 100000 ship building
plant will soon bring smokestacks and
thousands of workmen TO the poets
city. Up and down palm lined, ge-
ranium bordered avenues go French
officers in horizon blue; an occasional
Briton or Canadian; daredevil aces
with silver wings and adventurous
weather-beaten faces; Mexican vague
ros turned cavalrymen; naughty Nav
ajos. Pimas and Hopi who have swap
ned gorgeous blankets and ancient
desert pueblos for drab uniforms
and army tents; eX-cowpunchers try
ing to feel natural in navy middies
and jaunty caps and soldiers and sail
ors drawn from one-fifth the area of
the United States. Camouflaged ships
slip often into the azure harbor and
sail away under convoy, carrying
thousands of hard-muscled young
warriors to the battle line in France.
To the government coaling station
come strange, vessels flying foreign
flags. Sometimes japanese ship
drops anchor and groups of polite lit
+Ie brown men go sightseeing through
the streets.
Into the qrietest life the thrill OF
war has come. The housewife, wash
ing the breakfast dishes, hears hoof-
heats and rushes TO the porch. A
scout rides by. He bitches his horse
Mt the edge of. the canyon and recon
noiters for imaginary Huns. Hap
,nilv he finds only quail and meadow
iarks. and soon the whole cavalry troop
comes galloping-tall. lean. rangy
elders as browr as their own khaki.

EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a Glass of Salts to flush
Kidneys if Bladder bothers
y6u-Drink lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some
form or other, says a well-known
authority, because the uric acid in
meat excites the kidneys, they be-
come overworked; get sluggish; clog
up and cause all sorts of distress,
particularly backache and misery in
the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach,
constipation, torpid liver, sleepless-
ness, bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or if
bladder bothers you, get about four
ounces Of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations
to flush clogged kidneys and stimu-
late them to normal activity; also
to neutralize the acids in the urine
so it no longer irritates, thus end
ing bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone !;
makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which millions of
men and women take now and then
to keep the kidneys and urinary or
gans clean, thus avoiding serious
kidney disyase.-Ady.

NLOATING along in a thistle

- produced different sensation
from flying in an airplane or being
carried by a bird. There was no
breeze, for she was borne by the
wind itself. This created the feeling
that she was standing still. Only
when she looked down at the trees
and fences racing by far below did
she realize that she was really NOV
. ing at train speed.
The balloon jumped about a lot,
just like bit of fluff from milk
weed pod At one moment it would
be just above the tree-tops, and the
next instant a current of air would
shoot it up towards the sky. Once
she drltted over country church
steeple which threatened to catch
and hold her, but a vigorous shove
of her toe on the very tip of the
spire sent her bounding upward. Al
together, Peggy found this very
delightful way to travel.
Soon they sailed over Birdland,

would be to wake 'em all up by
dropping a fre-cracker among them,
like an aviator drops a bomb. But
then she reflected that the fire

and blow baby birds all to pieces.
So, after all, she was glad she didn't
have one.
Far up the river was the lonesome
hill which the Birds called Bandits
Roost. Here stood the hollow tree
in which Blue Jay and his gang hid
their refuge when danger threat
ened.
The balloon SKINNED along high
above the hill and Peggy wondered
how she was going to get down.
She didn't have a parachute and
there seemed no way to stop her
queer airship.
But the Jays knew how to manage
it. They caught hold of the thistle
down in their claws and pulled with
all their might Slowly they dragged
the balloon to earth; anchoring be-
meath spreading tree. Peggy
swung her trapeze until she could
reach a wild grapevine and down
she slid in safety.
Come, see our orchards"
screamed Blue Jay, leading the way
to a burned over slope. Peggy Won
dred what he could mean, but fol-
lowed eagerly among the blackened
stumps. There, isn't that a fine
job" he cried, pointing to rows Of
small geen sprouts arranged in all
orderly way amid the ruins of the
hre-wrecked forest.
