BY ED Me AGHER
Times staff Writer

Among the three units Soor
70 leave for Alaska from Fort
Lewis is an Alaska Warning
Co. which is attached 10 the
Signal Corps and will come IN
extremely handy during a
war. particularly during ar
air raid.
A Warning Co. sounds pretty
sinister and investigation indicates
its duties are downright grim. It's
a ground land sea- unit which
uses an elaborate system TO keep
track of approaching enemy air
planes
Londons Warning Co. during
the present war has drawn the ad-
miring praise of military men. Ali
England and a portion of the
surrounding water has been di-
vided into large squares. As Nszi
sirplsnes approach the coast mem
bers Of the Warning Co aboard
vessels. notify all land squares
ss 10 the direction Of the planes.
type Of ships, etc.
As the planes pass over
each square" their direction
Is noted and the word passed
on. In this way, the English
know at all times just how
many planes are In the air
and, Importantly. In which d.
rection they are flying.
Alaska's Warning Co. will do
the same kind OF work in Alaska
provided, OF course, il ever be-
comes necessary. and there are
similar companies all over the
United States.

to ride in the limousine placed at
his disposal. Gov. Sprague walked
and liked it. though the ground
in many places is muddy and the
weather was quite cold.
Gov. Sprague spent most Of
the day at the camp, walking
into tents where the men live,
asking dozens Of questions, in
specting everything with lively
interest.
He said he liked what he
saw, commented that the men
seem quite comfortable and
was particularly happy that
the sides OF most of the tents
finally have been boarded up.

RALEIGH, July 9-tR-This

million pound crop sold in 1899.

However, despite the smaller

HAPPINESS, c. O. D.

,Oontinued From Page Eight
them as the grand interval, during
which he first gained a glimpse of
genuine happiness. Not that he
quite realized the significance of it
at the time, but even then he found
it altogether delightful.
He acted three distinct male
parts with more confidence than
he had ever imagined he could
show, reading the lines or saying
them from memory, and he man
aged somehow to kiss Lola Mon
tesa in the love scenes without re-
vealing too much emotional stress.
He was not affected by Lola as he
had been by Gayle, that frs
time. For a fleeing moment it did
dawn on him that Lola was beau
tiful, her lips soft and delicious.
But the matter was impersona|
now. He was in the play, in char
acter. He was also accepted as one
of a happy crowd, doing his bit.
All of this gave him a rich sense
of e%xaltation, strange but price
less.
So thoroughly did the expert
ence lift his soul that he was full
of it when he came Unexpectedly
onto Gayle at noontime. Alone
with her a. moment there on ~
front porch, he spoke.
I'll Miss Dixon, l want you
to know everything is grand!"
She was confused at first. She
looked expectantly at him. "Jer-
envy, you mean"
IT mean-everything! People.
Everybody! Could would it be
all right if I just called you Gayle,
like the others?"
He spoke so earnestly, and the
new light shone SO Enthusiastically
in his eyes now, that Gayle was
suddenly suffused with a sense OF
pity for him.
"Of course, Jeremy" she whis-
pered intimately. seriously. Il
want you to-" Quite unconsciously
she reached to touch his arm,
standing near to him.
"I-I-it's its a beautiful
day." he declared.
That was true. Gayle didn't look
out at the weather; she looked
quizzically at his face. But it really
was a grand day. Birds seemed
to be playing everywhere. The sun
was shining. Spring was Haunting
herself almost brazenly. 3
