Rice, corps area recruiting officer. This new group further swells the recrod breaking total of New England men receiving their appointments for Army Air corps pilot training.

 Five states or represented, IS of the men coming from Massachusetts, 9 from Connecticut, two from Rhode Island, one from New Hampshire and one from Vermont.

They will be paid 976 month in addition to their fodo, lodging, clothing, medical and dental care as well as s10,O00 life insurance during their 35 weeks of training. Upon completion of their training, they will be appointed second lieu- tenants in the Army Air corps re- serve and will be placed on active duty at $24550 month, ard will be given a cash bonus of $500 for each year of active duty.
 In the future educationally quail flied applicants will be enlisted on the day they take their physical ex- arninations, without having to wait during the flve-week waiting period of the procedure in the past. Then they may be sent directly to Maxwell field, or they may be granted fur- tough lip to thirty days in which to close any business or personal af- fairs. Connecticut men in the new class follows:

Capt. David Smith, of Water bury, who was at Valley Forge, reported the following list of il Waterbury boys, in his company alone, on January 18th, 1778:
 Sylvanus Adams, John Saxton, 16 years old, Ezekiel Scott, Lou Smith, Joseph Freedom, Mark Richards, about 17, Eziekel Upson, Joel Roberts, Elisha Munson, Wil- liam Basset, Elisha HickoX. b.
 As the 'old-bachelor' looks down from his window upon the De- cember scene of 1941, he lets his imagination carry him back 164 years, = to 6 very different scene in December, 1777.
 Tn the middle of The old Mili- tary Road where the municipal Christmas Tree now stands, there seemed to be gathered Q group of patriot . farmers wives an q daughters and eager children and old-folks, who shared the work of hGGDlAlB bllS AViIG~AAGb OuAhAAB
 The central figure in the group was 0 resolute- looking young wo- man of about 27, who was mount ed on a stout horse, and evident- ly wasN an experienced rider. On the horse with her were her two little children, all smiles and ani- mation as they sat securely in q big basket, and helped watch some mysterious bundles that they understood to belong to Santa Claus,'-who was expected to meet them ct e place called Valley Forge.
 We can imagine some of the questions and answers that/were spoken before the caravan start. ed on It's 300 mile journey:
 "Mllilcent, dear,-of course the Colonel will meet you long be- fore you get to Fishkill7"
 "Yes, indeed, and he has noti. fled all our friends along The Old Military Road to be on the lockout for us and arrange places
