Turkey and sharpen still further
his relations with Russia. Russia
will probably not fight unless at
tackled, but while not fighting will
maintain a benevolent policy to-
wards Germany's enemies.
So the net effect of the YugoSlav
heroism is TO estrange Russia,
while the United States has made
swift and extremely important
moves on the periphery of both
important areas of the war.
VIEWED on a planetary scale,
Hitler's attack is a tweezer
movement, while Roosevelt's policy
represents a pincer movement on
the whole of the European Con-
tinent, or rather peninsula-for
that is what Europe is: PEN

move of a man who is ocean

therefore he will make a terrific
attempt in the main areas of the
war. particularly in the north At

But Marshal Petain's statement
that France and that means the
French navy will not engage

far more Importance than the Ger

With time. Germany cannot win
this war. The short run IS what
counts. and not the Mediterranean.
but the Atlantic fortress. the
British Isles are what count-the

Something seemed TO be on

had hardly arrived when he left
her abruptly and went off 10 the
bar. A few minutes later. She saw
him returning with another man
and her heart almost stopped
beating. 1t was Sandy he was
bringing up to her
"Myra, Sandy Smythe here is
longing for IA dance" Peter pre-
scented him as if, Myra had
never seen him before. SANDY,
this is Myra-IlI guarantee that
she's the best little dancer in

name.

That's swell
He turned away and there was
nothing for Sandy and Myra to do
but start dancing. As they moved
oct on the floor. it was Sandy who
recovered his composure first. He
explained that he met Peter in
Babylon and they'd grown quite
friendly.
Peter seemed TO think he had
all the qualifications for a good
insurance man and it ended up
with Peters swinging a Job for
him.

Remembering how he had disap-

She no longer saw much ot
Peter. Oh. he always asked hei
for a dance or two at the club
and always waved gaily when she
drove past his car with Sandy.

Waterville, July 1S.-A baseball game will be played Sunday after noon at 3 o'clock at the Waterville park between St. Michael's CYO and the Waterville Ali Stars. This game should prove of interest to the local fans, as all will be Wa terville players. The All Stars team IS coacned by Winnie Buxton, and will have such players as Frank Stuart, Al Powell and Tom Clarity. St. Michael's team is coached by Winnie Palo, and has captured the first round in the citywide CYO league with seven consecutive games.
 Annual Flower Show
 The dates of Wednesday and Thursday, September 10th and 1lth have been chosen by the Casper s. Davis, American Legion post for the annual flower show. Andrew Bell will be in charge.
 Plans have been completed for the participation of the post in the coming American Legion State con- vention. Commander Clifford North rop and Patrick Moriarty have been named as delegates, with William Rooney and Frederick Poudim the alternates.
 For the auxiliary, Mrs. Dorothy Cook and Mrs. Ethel Byrnes were selected as the delegates and Mrs. Della Carney and Mrs. Ruth Rooney, the alternates. It was voted for Mrs. Cook and Mrs Byrnes to at tend all the dinners and teas being given during the three days of the convention.
 Post History
 With interest centering on the present time, a brief history of the Casper s. Davis American Legion Auxiliary has been prepared as fol- lows:
 The first business meeting of the American Legion Auxiliary of Cas- per s. Davis, Jr., post, No. 136 was held on Saturday afternoon, Febru- ary 2, 1885, with 18 members pres ent. The meeting was under the direction of Mrs. Anna Bassett, of New Haven, then the president of the second district. Election of of- ficers was held.
 On April g, 1885 the auxiliary joined with the post in a public installation of officers at the Sprague school gymnasium. Mrs. Finer, president of the Department of Connecticut assisted by state dignitaries was the installing of- ficer.
 Th;rty-seven members were re- ceived at this time. Mrs. Hazel Northrop was installed as first presi- dent and under her able guidance, the auxiliary began to grow. Others seated at this first installation were First vice president, Mrs. Agnes Martin; second vice president. Mrs. Georgiana 0renler: secetaEy, Mrs. Lena Platt: treasurer, Mrs. Gather inc Herman: sergeant-at-arns, Mrs Cornelila Atherton: historian, Mrs. Helen piDlasi; and chaplain. Mrs. Ethel Byrnes.
 To these first members. under Mrs Northrop's guidance belongs the credit for the firm foundation reached by the unit.

ganizations have sent protests to Lord Woolton, Food Minister. They want to know why controlled foods can be obtained in restaurants and hotels and not in shops. As 8 mat ter of fact, they know why. The answer is that hotels and res- taurants buy in large quantities and are willing to pay more than the controlled price-and are therefore served first. They also know that suppliers are eager to reduce deliv- cry expenses, but 1t seems to them that traders are too readily inclined to be unfair and completely over look the housewife's needs.
 For the first time since the war started queues can now be seen outside food shops all over the country.
 For the next few months, how ever, the outlook is more promiS- ing. England is beginning to reap the fruits of behests on all sides to "Dig for Victory" and back yard gardens, allotments and even wirl- dow-sill boxes are beginning to show good crops of potatoes, tomatoes and other vegetables.

 The women of Britain are pub- Reminded. They have needed Lord Woolton's personal message to them, begging that they should save in the LITTLE THINGS. They have been told that every time they waste a scrap of food they have
